Kenneth should stop talking nonsense

Obi generated more popularity and goodwill for him than whatever he did for Obi

Obi has to go and sit down. Atiku has nothing to offer. Let Tinubu complete his tenure

Can someone remind me who is Kenneth Okonkwo again?

Though somehow he made little sense and if that is the way to go it's better Sowore or Imomulen becomes the president but unfortunately it won't go that way Tinubu will finish his 8 years and the North picks it by 2031 and by 2038 it comes back to SS and we will all support any candidate from "SS" either from apc or pdp But never LP.

Okonkwo pretends to not know that Atiku, Tinubu, Kwankwaso and Peter Obi are desperate politicians. They have no limits to what they will do just so they can become Nigerian President. That is the thing that separates them from say, Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, Adeshina and Osinbajo who are all in good stead to become great Nigerian Presidents but are not desperate to be one as they clearly have lines they have drawn for themselves and will not cross just to be President!

That is your business. Obi should go and rest. He cannot be president. He is not even fit to be . His administration as a governor was a disaster.

Tinubu was far worse as a governor, and today, as president, he is an unmitigated disaster.

Which politician, and which political party is not fighting in Nigeria?
You people want to hide behind one finger to exhibit your hatred for PETER OBI.
Reserve your opinion and advise for tinubu not PETER OBI.
OBI will contest and win the presidency in Nigeria by the grace of God.

Why did a guy like Tinubu contest in 2023 and why should a guy like Tinubu who has under performed, wrecked the economy with failed economic policies, cluelessness and the highest level of incompetence recontest in 2027?

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.

This one don dey work for the ruling party grin

No politician can beat Tinubu in this country right now except Atiku and Obi combination and that is why APC are doing everything for that not to happen.
Seriously APC is scared of the combination and there's nothing they can do about it, very soon you guys will soon see what's going on because the Tinubu boys have successfully buy plenty enemy for him in the North. The first is by fighting Elrufai and last week one mumu dey insult Buhari and his past administration. See I really like this Revenue Bill Tinubu is trying to pass but the North no like am and some Northern politician are not happy about it and it is part of what opposition will use against them. In the last election apart from G5 governors there were some other PDP governors that worked codedly for Tinubu but this time around instead of Tinubu boys to start building friendship with some people they were fighting them thinking they have arrived forgetting that Nigerians are not happy with them right now.
Take a look at APC some of this their politician are former PDP boys, I am telling you if Atiku and Obi comes together it will take a miracle for Tinubu to beat them and let me remember you guys Tinubu is not Buhari and some Northerners are not happy with Tinubu right now because of what some of his fo*lish and senseless boys are doing right now for that reason expect more votes for Atiku in the North and Obi popularity is there in the South. I can tell you for free APC is getting scared every day by day and Atiku and Obi will beat them if care is not taking. See I am not a fan of Obi but if Atiku and come together they will beat Tinubu and heaven will not fall. Buhari used popularity to beat Jonathan so if Atiku and Obi come together I don't see anything standing in their way and to Wike and some politician that sabotaged their party for opposition let them know that everyday no be market and people are wiser everyday. That Election day will be a long day for APC.
Obi will only win his south east cos other zones now knows his true colours. He is so tribalistic. If you think he will win south south you should go and examine yourself and south west is no go area for him. Religious sentiment that made him to get votes in south south won't happen again, expecially if the refineries keep working till the next election. Section of the Calabar end of the coaster road is about to start also. Maritime university approved also. All this will work in favour of Tinubu. It will even be worse if Obi becomes vice presidential candidate to Atiku he and his Igbo Obidients called one of the structure of criminality. He will explain tire.

Only combination of Atiku, obi and kwankwanso can defeat Tinubu

Atiku and obi cannot defeat Tinubu in 2023 if Kwankwanso stay neutral or camp with Tinubu

Atiku/obi or obi/kwankwanso would have convincly won 2023 election

I see none of the Runu rascals talking about the new ATM withdrawal charges. Suffering & smilling lots.

Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) don increase di withdrawal charge for automated teller machines (ATMs) from 35 naira to 100 naira.

CBN give di directive for one circular 'Review Of Automated Teller Machine Transaction Fees,' on Monday, and e go take effect on 1 March.

Di document contain information on di upward charges of electronic withdrawal on ATM and international withdrawal for debit cards.

If na ATMs wey no dey for bank you use, dem go charge you 100 naira plus surcharge of not more dan 500 naira per 20,000 naira withdrawal.

Di surcharge, wey be income of di ATM deployer/acquirer, go dey disclosed at di point of withdrawal to di consumer.
