You dey mind the Pandora propagandist and hypocrite.

[quote author=NLCreator post=126854133]Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 elections, has defended the purchase of sports utility vehicles (SUVs) for members of the national assembly.

There have been reports that the leadership of the 10th national assembly has bought SUVs for all lawmakers.

Each SUV is said to be valued at N160 million.

The LP had asked members of the party in the national assembly to kick against “wastage”.

While responding to questions during a press conference in Abuja on Monday, the former governor of Anambra said the SUVs are not personal cars of the lawmakers, noting that they are for official use.

“Let me start with the issue of Labour Party members in the house. I have actually discussed this issue with them,” Obi said.

“Surprisingly, I can tell you I heard that these vehicles are official cars. They have to use it. It is meant for office.

“So it is not as if it is their vehicle. They said it is official cars and you are meant to use it while you are in the senate.”

Obi also hinted at contesting for the country’s number one position in 2027, adding that Nigeria deserves dedicated and visionary leaders who will lead the country towards a brighter future.

Peter Obi, failed presidential aspirant, Messiah of the cannibal tribe, mumu man, low I.Q dullard, political prostitute. You must think we believe your nonsense. You are irrelevant and you know that neither you or any Ibo man will never never ever be president of the FRON. Ever!!!! 😆🤣😂.

Considering the rate at which his Excellency has been spreading projects across Nigeria, Peter Obi might voluntarily support president Tinubu's reelection
He and his tribal headless mob unwittingly supported ebilokan’s dream to continue APC shege, so what is the surprise about him doing so again huh

jameshankss:
Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, has said he is sure the candidate of Labour Party (LP), Mr Peter Obi, would lose the 2023 presidential election. Soludo said he would not submit to the bullying of Obi’s supporters, who recently descended on him for addressing issues in the state.

The governor made the comments in a lengthy write-up personally authored, with the title, “History Beckons, and I Will Not Be Silent (Part 1).”

Soludo said Obi was inadvertently making the pathway to victory much easier for the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, and at the same time, toying with the destiny of millions of Ndigbo.

But the chief spokesperson for the Labour Party Presidential Campaign, Yunusa Tanko, accused Soludo of being sponsored by some unknown persons to weaken the base of the party in the South-east.

The former CBN governor had been under intense attack for close to a week for dismissing Obi’s investment in the state as amounting to nothing, during a television interview.

Soludo said in the write-up, “My attention has been drawn to some of the tirades on social media following my frank response during an interview on Channels TV regarding the ‘investments’ Mr. Peter Obi claimed to have made with Anambra State revenues.

“Sadly, several of the comments left the issue of the interview to probe or suggest motives, inferred from my response on ‘investment’ that I am opposed to Peter Obi’s ambition and, therefore, committed a ‘crime’ for which the punishment is internecine abuse and harassment, even to my family.

“Everyone knows that I don’t follow the winds or one to succumb to bullies, or shy away from a good fight especially, when weighty matters of principles and future of the people are involved.”

Soludo said he had urged Obi to return to his former party, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), to actualise his presidential bid. He added that he had always told the LP candidate to his face that he was not capable of winning the 2023 presidential election, especially, under LP, which had neither a councillor nor a local government chairman.

Soludo said Obi was not just his friend, but also his brother, but despite that, they have their political differences.

He stated, “For full disclosure, let me state that Peter Obi and I are not just friends, we call ourselves ‘brothers’. But we have political differences: he left APGA for PDP after his tenure as governor, while I have remained in APGA since 2013.

“During the last two governorship elections in Anambra in 2017 and 2021, he led the PDP campaigns but APGA won landslide in both elections. By the way, in 2016, he visited and proposed that I defect to PDP and contest the 2017 election against the incumbent Willie Obiano, but I declined.

“After my victory in November 2021, he called to congratulate me, as I did to him in 2010. That is the Anambra way: we fight fiercely during campaigns but share drinks at the next social events. After all, it was the Great Zik of Africa, who taught us that in politics, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies but only permanent interests.”

Arguing that Obi’s presidential bid would only work in favour of Tinubu, Soludo said, “Indeed, if I were Asiwaju Tinubu, I would even give Peter Obi money as someone heading one of the departments of his campaign, because Obi is making Tinubu’s pathway to victory much easier by indirectly pulling down PDP.”

Obi, according to Soludo, would only deplete the votes of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and pave the path for an APC victory.

He stated, “The current fleeting frenzy, if not checked, will cost Ndigbo dearly for years. The South-east has the lowest number of votes of any region, but it is also the only region where the presidential race might be a four-way race (it is a two-way race in the other five regions) thereby, ensuring that our votes won’t count in the making of the next president of Nigeria.

First tme he will say something that will make sense to me.

I think someone has advise him to focus and drop bitterness. These are the thing we have be telling him ever since to played a responsible opposition and disconnect from obidient. Nigeria is too complex to think bullying, insult, mockery, bigot, bitterness, threatening will earn you presidency it won't happen, never.

He's seen the light. No northerners will vote for another Southerner(Obi) to start a potential 8 fresh years term. Southerners also won't want to be shortchanged and vote a Northerner. It's a catch 22 for the already unserious opposition of Tinubu.

Any coalition that will unseat President Tinubu must be driven by
1) a robust Economic Plan and
2) multi-sectoral reform proposals
by the opposition and not just another a gang-up to grab power to continue status quo.

- A practical Economic Plan to revive Nigerian economy and lay a new foundation that will incentivize exiting and potential industrial investors as well as leverage the economic potentials (agriculture, food processing, animal husbandry, fishery and Marines resources, sports, entertainment, tourism, etc) of geopolitical zones.

- Multi-sectoral reform proposals that will improve various sectors economy since most of them are still operating on operational frameworks put in place in 60' s and 70's. Tinubu has done Tax reform but the surface has not been scratched.
seconded.

Considering the rate at which his Excellency has been spreading poverty across Nigeria, Peter Obi has voluntarily offered to help president Tinubu's lost mind and confused approach to changing the country to a better place
You know you can't be smarter than the hungry citizens of Nigeria President Tinubu is reducing their purchasing powers daily and turning to Poor people....

Spreading projects when people can't cope any longer in his policy that will yield more hunger .. 😂 😂 😂

Cos Tinubu is only interested in grabbing power. Has no clue of what to do with power. Only to give Ebin pawa as dividends of his governance.
Have you forgotten that the kingdom of God had suffered violence from the days of John the Baptist, and the violent taketh but by force?

So, if Tinubu taketh but by force, he's not done anything strange.

The problem with Nigeria and Nigerians is this


We want what is good...


Let me explain that sentence

1. YOU want what is good for our own state

1.1. YOU want what is good for our own local government areas

1.1.1 YOU want what is good for our own community

1.1.1.1 YOU want what is good for our families

1.1.1.1.1. YOU want what is good for you

We are only looking out for ourselves, no one cares what happens to his neighbors. Its all about me, my own and my interest my wants my future, my goals, my everything.


The rest of Nigeria and its demands can wait, deep down we have accepted defeat and become numbed to the idea that there is any good in leaders. We have accepted and become numb to the feeling of good things happening.

It is in the little details of our Daily lives.. NEPA brings light for 24hrs, we start anticipating something terrible to happen.... See?

We simply aren't doing anything or supporting those who want to try because we keep finishing the story that hasn't even started. The story of how WE TOOK BACK OUR COUNTRY BACK FROM THOSE WHO HAVE DAMAGED IT.


Sadly, our children will continue from where we stopped, believing what you and I tell them.

Nigeria is bad.
There are no good leaders
Runaway to a foreign country
Enjoy the corruption too
Embezzle as long as it is your turn
Don't try to change the system.
Bow your heads down to the slave masters




Dear Nigerians, There is no light at the end of the tunnel, except the light you and I bring into the tunnel.

NIGERIA IS IN YOUR HANDS, IT WILL ALWAYS REMAIN IN YOUR HANDS.

There is a saying "To stop a black man from progressing within an environment, put another black man there"

And to the tribal warriors on this platform, please keep on it. Outside the shores of this country, you are all Nigerians to the white folks. Black people. We all bleed Nigeria.

Enjoy the tribal bashing, but when you are done, remember who are suffering for it.. Its not one tribe, its not one state, it's not one people, its not one community.. We all are suffering it



---Sincerely A Believer.

Even the much respected Ibrahim Taore grabbed power and doing his best.

You can only say this in western countries ,

By all means grab power, by registering in a formidable party and having a influential and powerful northern running mate

You would be declared winner before 3AM on on the day after Election Day
So when he grabs this power, are you sure he won't grab your lands, grab your money, grab your jobs, grab your food, grab everything else from you?

You people think that's how power works? The

enemy of my enemy is still your enemy in politics, very soon. The same hands that freed you from oppression will choke you into submission. That's what power grabbing is but anyway you can vote those who knows how to grab POWER
