Okay, but I don't see a pathway for a PO Presidency
If Atiku on the day of primaries declare he’s stepping down for Obi, then forget it your useless vision!

Dey there. If Tinubu kpai tomorrow, someone will come and say that he told him to support and help the poor. All those ones are just statements to gain sympathy. As they were or are in power, what did they do to help the poor? Nothing.

One thing that is clear is that leaders who are loud before getting into power are usually limited.

Some cannot explain how they transformed their states and tackled poverty. So they keep citing examples from Indonesia, Malaysia and Bangladesh.

Buhari said take care of the poor. But how should that be done? The test of leadership is the ideas. We know we have to solve the power problem. How? We need to pull people out of poverty. How?
That "how" is exactly what politicians rarely address.

Two things ADC has to be clear about is what its policy will be on PMS Pricing/ Subsidy Removal and the Floatation of the Naira. This is because these are the two cardinal things that have been at the centre of the hardship brought by the present government. If they dont have anything different with regard to those two policies, they should go and sit down.

A rare breed in Daura not in Katsina, not in Naija. A rare breed without political structure ans mentees. Obj Can boast of nurturing folks like El Rufai, Okonjo Iweala, Ernest Ndukwe, Atiku etc.

Even GMB’s funeral was dysfunctional AF.
No legacy projects and institutions. OBJ can talk about , Nafdac, NCC, MTN, AIrtel, Glo, DMO, EFCC, ICPC, NDDC, Bank consolidation, ATM Card, etc.
What’s is GMB known for? He kpaid more northerners than any president since 1999. Kidnapping, BH, Insecurity and hunger kpaid more people

Peter Obi often uses what we call 'double-speak.' He is trying to make it seem like former President Buhari wanted him to win the last election. However, this idea really comes from a vague instruction. That instruction was simply to 'care for the poor.' You don't need to be president to do that.

Also, , there's no evidence that Obi and Buhari actually met during the intense 2023 election campaigns.

Now, if Obi were asked for clear details about this supposed meeting, like where it took place or who else was there (a private meeting with a sitting president is unlikely), his story would probably fall apart. It's a familiar tactic: when he's put on the spot, his explanation changes.

Do not be surprised if he shifts from claiming direct support to saying he and Buhari just share a general interest in helping the poor.

This tendency to seek media attention is also clear. For example, he reportedly arrived at a solemn event with many cameras only after the main part was over, instead of attending directly. This shows he carefully builds his public image. This has bcome a predictable part of his public appearances, which was why the Benue State governor refused to allow him use the tragedy to drop another of his lies.

If not for Emefiele that destroyed the economy, PMB's tenure in itself was very decent. His intentions from the beginning were clear.

As to your questions, there was a wave of projects upon projects. You cannot deny the rail revolution, 2nd Niger bridge and many others.

So what's your reason for this your assertion. Give verifiable examples of that your assertion about Buhari.
Buhari is the best President Nigeria has ever had, he was able to change the orientation of Nigerians that look down jobs such as: farming, Mechanic, shoemaker and volcanizing jobs, if not for him , the Country heading to the dogs with stupid mentality of forming big boys / girls while looking down on people engaged in such jobs, and Tinubu is doing great towards that direction

He asked you to care for the poor. But did you take time to ask him why didn’t he do the same as a sitting President? It shows how terrible our leaders are including yourself.

that question should be directed more to Tinubu than Obi..... Cos d way I see it, Obi is doing d very little he can to pull students into education....that's a way of averting generational poverty
