If another person comes to power in 2027, I only give him one year before Nigerians start to insult him again, one man can not solve Nigeria's problems alone, there is no president Nigerians haven't insulted, let obi come he will still be insulted, the hardship today is because of fuel subsidy removal, obi too wanted to remove it, Jonathan wanted to remove it, why is everyone complaining now, go and hustle and stop waiting for government to come and feed you, what are u bringing to the Nigerian economy

I don't know if someone will do better but it is obvious Obi is far much more clueless than even Buhari.
None of his interview has unique substance, that u could place your hand on, he has shown complete zero leadership qualities in handling the crisis of LP

" I will do it in an organized way" is not a solution to any problem.

As for Atiku, his plan is simple, acquire wealth and make his friends richer, he hasn't shown he has any solution to Nigerian problems

President Tinubu can't even loose his reelection. Let the opposition continue gathering in vain

Op, stop making baseless assumptions for what you haven't tried yet. Tinubu didn't have a good strategy for removing the petrol subsidy.
His team is also horrible. Nigerian economy is still struggling from his decisions to float the naira and remove subsidy outright. If Tinubu had been sensible, he would've removed it in phases and monitored the impact before taking the next step.

To make matters worse, there's no proper accounting of what has been done with the money realised from subsidy removal. When we ask questions, his online minions will say he's giving more allocations to the governors. He's giving fellow politicians more money so he can win their hearts, instead of using the money to directly improve the lives of ordinary people. That's why they are all decamping to his APC today.

I understand that we all support different candidates, and that’s okay. But let’s try to be fair. Saying Peter Obi is ‘more clueless than Buhari’ is quite a stretch. Obi has consistently articulated his plans with data and a clear emphasis on fiscal responsibility, education, and production-driven growth, things Nigeria urgently needs.

It's fine if his style doesn’t resonate with everyone, but calling it 'zero leadership' ignores the fact that he governed Anambra prudently, left no debts, improved health and education, and was even praised by institutions like the World Bank.

As for the internal issues in the Labour Party no major political party is immune to internal crises, including APC and PDP. What matters is how a leader responds, and Obi has chosen to focus on the issues, not distractions.

Saying 'I’ll do it in an organized way' may sound simple, but in a country where disorganization has fueled corruption and inefficiency, organization is a solution. Nigeria needs leaders who prioritize systems, not slogans.

You are talking rubbish now but you, tinubu, wole shoyinka and co. attacked Jonathan telling all manners of and propaganda to stop subsidy removal by Jonathan.
Now you demi- God has done it, it is okay abi?

If a praise from World bank is your criteria for vouching for Obi then what do you say to IMF, World Bank and other Financial Institutions across the globe who has approved the economic reforms of Tinubu s administration in just 2 years.

Obiano debunked the lies of Obi left money in the covers of Anambra but Obidients are still parroting same lies as if that would automatically turned it to truth.

There is no part of Obi's interview that is convincing.
What I am expecting is to give detailed explanation on what he plans to achieve, give convincing possible setbacks he may encounter in his plans and tell us how he plans to tackle those problems.

Though I don't really fancy Tinubus govt but Let me give u an idea of what Tinubu plans are.
In the sector of education, he knows that schools dropout is a major issue, he has decided to give no interest loan to students to solve that issue, but he also knows that some students if given the loan at hand will run away with it so the fees is paid directly to the school. He also started the 3MTT program which trains youths in tech.

In the aspect of exportation and saving, he has decided to stop fuel importation and also deregulatise the downstream sector for a positive and long lasting gains.

In the finance sector, he has de-cap the banking sectors and most banks like Access, first bank and Zenith are now heavy hitters in just 2years.

Telling us "I will do it in an organized way" doesn't make any sense, give us detailed explanation of what we are going to see.

His

He had a very good strategy, the reason why many past leaders avoided it was because of the effect.
The country was crippling and even if u remove subsidy bits by bits, the debts will still be paid.
Nigeria has gone passed the stage where we could remove subsidy in parts

I will actually bend if that guy respond to you accordingly.

They only know how to point fingers but whenever you counter them, they would start sounding incoherently

only the ignorant minded people claim that President tinubu removed petroleum subsidy, they should go & read the petroleum industry act critically to clear their ignorance, most times than often, the truth is hidden to the simple minded.

Ignorance is never an excuse in law, abi u think say Dangote wey go spend $20 billion of his money to go build refinery in Nigeria na ignorant person?

Last last tinubu will sure do 8 years and then the presidency goes back to the north, so before obi becomes president, maybe 20 years time....

let me ask u the same question rotus asked obi that he was unable to answer


How can u remove subsidy in phases when subsidy was only made provision for in the budget till June and the president will take over by may, where will the president get money to pay for subsidy knowing fully well that no country or body will give loan to a president sworn in 2 months ago?

First, budget doesn't mean money; it means a financial plan. Let that sink in. There's something called a supplementary budget. Send it to the national assembly, accomodating the amount of subsidy you want to pay.

Next, call the importers to a meeting and encourage them to import and you will pay them when the money is available. They will certainly do that because Nigerian government owes everyone, including PMS importers.

Source the funds for paying them while increasing crude oil production.

Listen, you'll have to pay for this class if you want me to explain any further.

Lolz u are aware NNPCL was operating at a loss due to subsidy and federal govt were owing them too?
U are also aware that 90% of our revenue goes to debt servicing, how will they borrow for the supplementary budget?

Its like saying Morinhou wants to play defense and coach lampard wants to play defense and you expect them to achieve same results.

The manager's competence matters. Tinubu is incompetent and running a corrupt govt so cannot achieve same result that a competent and transparent Obi will achieve

Tell your Tyrannic Wike to contest then..

No one says the next person will be a Messiah but we need an empathetic leader

Not one wey go just make everything hard and still be forming James bond there

DMerciful:

U can be chairman of anything in Nigeria, it takes a connection for someone like Buhari to be a president, someone as arrogant as Wike to be a governor.
Obi was nothing special, he just had some connection.
When it was all man for himself, he ran away from PDP because he doesn't have the substance to do anything on his own.
If not for corruption, Obi would have been selling Okirika in Anambra

Dalohad:
Tell your Tyrannic Wike to contest then..

We all agree Wike is not fit to be president.
Give us a reason why Obi is fit instead of comparing him to bad people.

Start comparing him to people like Donald Duke, Sanwo-Olu and other good leaders and see how low Obi is

Factcheck0001:
bro, what are u saying


Please make yourself clear

The Petroleum Industry Act (PIA) in Nigeria paved the way for fuel subsidy removal by establishing market-based pricing for petroleum products. Specifically, Section 205(1) of the PIA mandates unrestricted free market pricing for wholesale and retail petroleum products, effectively ending the subsidy regime.

While the PIA was enacted in 2021, its implementation, including the end of subsidy, was slated for six months after enactment, which would be around February 2022, according to Premium Times Nigeria. However, the government continued to intervene in the market, providing subsidy until May 2023.

Buhari’s regime is far more better than Tinubu…The blind leading the blind..

You talking like you know something upstairs....Academically is Tinubu better than Obi?..

Go and check their interviews.
Go and check Tinubu answers to interviews when they asked him about subsidy removal and how how that stampede that killed some persons during Christmas.
Then check Obi interview and u will see that Tinubu is intellectually far better than Obi
