There were already too many schools in anambra state so he instead focused on rehabilitation of the dying ones and enrolling more out of school kids into those institutions

That's the reason why today it takes an anambra state kid to score 138 in common entrance to gain admission into secondary schools but a kid in say ondo state will be required to score just 96 in the same examination to gain the same exact admission

Peter Obi's educational legacy projects shot his state high up the ladder what a true and wonderful leader 🤗

You should have used another state apart from Southwestern states because no Southwestern state are push overs in education.

There is nothing like too many schools. Most of the schools you guys ascribed to Obi are private/missionary-owned schools. That he donated some cash, a few laptops, and a few buses to some of those schools doesn't make him an education-loving governor. In fact, that should be the minimum expected of any governor when it comes to educational investment in their state. Mimiko, a former governor of Ondo State you just mentioned did not only build modern mega schools; he also bought BRTs to convey students for free every day, renovated many schools, bought laptops for them, and paid the kids WAEC fees.
Now tell me what your Obi did aside claiming the success of the private/missionary-owned schools?
It's just like Mimiko claiming the success of Greater Tomorrow High School, a private-owned school simply because he donated some cash gifts and some equipment. You guys are just so so satisfied with mediocrity

As OBI sef no say.
Dem no wan go school
Na to push powder be their main business
What's the essence of wasting Money on building schools.
I support obi on this one.

Morbeta11:
I don't know why it's very hard for them to comprehend.......what is the need of building new school while the old ones are unfunded?

but the current governor of anambra state said 76 communities are without basic schools in anambra, thats like ten years after obi being a governor.

Human Rice and Beans activist.... 😂😂😂😂

That one got me cracking 😂😂😂😂

Finito🙏
O pari
U don finish the whole argument.
None of them wants to acknowledge the fact that Anambra State has been topping Waec and jamb for years now.
It isn’t just a coincidence.
It is a deliberate and sincere commitment with a sense of purpose.

Putindbutt:
It's getting hotter, 2027 will be very interesting. Every packaged fraud will be exposed, no hiding place. They were here when he was Governor, crying, complaining and cussing him out but how they packaged him to sell to SW, SS, and the North is incredible .

say dis without crying man....u almost sound like d world just ended on dis page

Ekiti has some of the best public schools in Nigeria. Why would anyone enroll their wards in a dilapidated unity school?

So FC Ikole Ekiti and that of Ido/Usi Ekiti are dilapidated?

Putindbutt:
Lere Olayinka, Senior Special Assistant on Public Communication and Social Media to Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Nyesom Wike, has sharply rebuked Nigerian lawyer and human rights activist Dele Farotimi for his scathing criticism of Wike.

Farotimi, in a post on X on July 7, 2025, labeled Wike the “poster boy of the Nigerian ruining class,” accusing him of embodying the flaws of Nigeria’s political elite, describing him as “cacophonous, parasitic, narcissistic, Lilliputian, gluttonous, myopic, and untouched by any desire for immortality.”

In a fiery response on X, Olayinka dismissed Farotimi’s remarks, asserting that the lawyer had abandoned objective reasoning. Olayinka, known for defending Wike’s interests, argued that Farotimi’s critique was driven by personal bias rather than substantive analysis, accusing him of joining a “coalition of confusion” with ulterior motives.

This aligns with Olayinka’s prior defenses, such as his June 2025 rebuttals against Dele Momodu, where he accused critics of exploiting historical struggles for personal gain.

According to Olayinka, he said, "When as a lawyer and human rice and beans activist like DeleFarotimi, you have lost your sense of rational reasoning, you will be supporting, promoting, and defending a man who built no single school throughout his 8 years as governor, but attacking another man who built the law school that many of the law graduates that will be called to bar this week attended."

The clash reflects ongoing political tensions, with Farotimi’s comments echoing sentiments from the African Democratic Congress (ADC) coalition, including figures like Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi, who aim to challenge President Bola Tinubu in 2027. Olayinka’s retort underscores Wike’s camp’s strategy to counter opposition narratives, framing critics as misguided or opportunistic.

lol
I think Farotimi is more of a HUMAN LEFT ACTIVIST, not RIGHT.
Hes been in and out of detention for defamation and libel
Some mothers do have them

Mehn it's very difficult to work as an aide to politicians especially the ones in power that are been criticize. You will defend and defend them just so you earn your pay even when right inside you, you know they're wrong in some instances. Lere Olayinka pele se o gbo!
I understand your situation

SmartPolician:
Are we still on this? He built no schools but renovated most of the abandoned schools.

In fact, he handed over the poorly run schools to the missionary and supported them financially so that by the time he was about to leave office Anambra public schools became some of the best in the country.

You can criticise Peter Obi for anything, but forget education because education is so dear to him.


Threads have been created here about the kinds of secondary schools in Anambra. That's why they always perform well in international competitions. https://www.nairaland.com/7680254/why-anambra-best-school-completion

https://www.nairaland.com/7250109/how-peter-obi-transformed-anambra

He did what many leaders skip continued governance, instead of building more schools which will waste taxpayers funds. He reformed them.

So bland the arguments of lackeys in the APC
Get a life...bros
Jina built the best schools up North and not for his own because he knew the best way forward was education, what remarks did you make then....?
Or when the government expunged History....as a subject.....?!
Once again, go bite na faltering transformer cables if this is all you've got

Gbadugbakun:
Please I want to ask. Is Peter Obi the only presidential candidate? The opposition has been attacking him since 2023 even before the elections. Now they're in power they're still attacking him. Why?

It's simple Darkness always attacks the source to birth light, for when there's light, darkness ceases to exist.

MasterJayJay:
Anambra has schools. So why build more schools? Just renovate and improve existing ones. That's what a wise person will do.

Wrong logic, even US and Canada are still building new schools.
You are defending bad leadership and incompetence. Perhaps Anambra has more schools than even the smallest state in America.

If you need a spokesperson, pick a hungry man. Don't pick just a hungry man, pick a hungry man from the region west of the south side.

Their loyalty knows no bound as long as their stomachs are full ... but beware..take the food away and theyll turn on you

honestly this is not completely true a hungry man with from any part of the country can manifest such at any time

It doesn't make sense.
Nigeria is the way it is because we allow meagre differences cloud our judgment.

Leave them.

They will never maintain what others built, instead they will prefer to abandon it and build theirs.

Continuity is lacking in our democracy, later they will say governance is continuum

77 communities don't have schools. Tell the lies to your fellow igbos. I am not surprised about the likes you got. Just look at yourself, there are too much school. Even in America, the government can't say they have too much schools. Every single day, your fake messaih got bursted of lies.

bigpicture001:
The man is pained that Obi is so so good.. and no one in APC is as good as this man Obi...

Obi doesn't play to the gallery, he does what is right and not for the pictures..

Obi would rather expand a road than simply tar an old dilapidated narrow road.. same as soludo now..

They love to work instead of just eye service.....

you can't compare both cos Soludo is far ahead. Why was he afraid to reply Soludo. Obi is a packaged religious and tribal bigot. He cant be president of Nigeria simple.

He lies too much. Atiku is better with a miles. He cant be decieving nigerians and you want his opponent to keep quiet.

It's compulsory for a governor of a state to build a new school complex or to refracture the old one,and to give sound education to his people.

Compared to Banji Akintoye Academy along poly road in Ado and many other public schools, they are.

It's a public school named after him. Get the point right. Not all public schools will have the LEA suffix. This is 2025.
Fayemi built 5 of those schools as a governor and fenced and renovated all public secondary schools.

He never built any school yet Anambra state went from 23 something to 1st in Waec!!!! What now happens to those that built schools but couldn't properly manage it
