| Is This Why Everyone Is Talking About Peter Obi? by Igbophobia(op): 6:42am On Jul 09, 2025 |
From politicians to the government, legislators and the judiciary, there seems not to be a moment without the name of Obi on the lips of Nigerians since before the 2023 presidential election. Not even the second-placed Atiku Abubakar or the INEC-declared Tinubu comes close to Obi as a phenomenon. Do you know why? The reason is that Peter Obi is one of those rare politicians that people believe in. Rare because such men come once in aa generation. As far as Nigeria is concerned, just three men have had the privilege of having genuine organic following. These men are: 1) Aminu Kano, the enigmatic Hausa leader who should have been the first northern premier had the British not favored and helped rig in Ahmadu Bello, who was not even loved by the northern Talakawa. Maybe because Kano was not Fulani. 2) Mohammadu Buhari . the erstwhile president with his cult-like northern following 3) Peter Obi. What's even more surprising is that Obi is a southerner and the first southerner to be loved by Nigerians from all regions. Do you now see why even the government cannot stop talking about him? |

See, Peter Obi can't be lying ridiculously and believe Nigerians won't question his integrity. One university just accused Peter Obi of lying about an event that happened in the campus. I don't have much details. Imagine a university calling Peter Obi out, just yesterday news. The question is, are his supporters not even seeing anything wrong with Peter Obi deliberately lying to Nigerians without feeling any remorse? |

helinues:There is nothing tinibu and his hellish supporters cannot do to tarnish Obi's image in other, to make way for tinibu. That campus news you just talked about, is a handy work of APC just to discredit Obi. But don't worry we are here for una. |

helinues:You should first start seeing the one concerning SW president past, present and future. Why are u not seeing it. Nothing SW president said that has ever been the truth. Then u as a person post lies on this thread daily. |

helinues:You have many on this thread to be liking your main moniker. The others sometimes repeat what you have said on this moniker without knowing. I can count 10 of your other handles here because they give themselves out sometimes by making exactly the same sentence from this handle. When u use this handle to comment first on a post.Any of your other handle will always be the second in support your comment. Then when this is banned by bot. You bring out another handle that has been ghost to be active and disappear when ban is off. |

helinues:You think Obidients are daft enough to fall for your cheap propaganda. The smear campaign against PO will only strengthen our resolve to follow him the more. |

Mbanda:What they do not understand is that Peter Obi represents hope to the masses. Something that no other politician in this generation portends. And that there is nothing they can do to change the minds of people. Jonathan that they pulled down with lies and propaganda is not in the league of Peter Obi. Instead of de-marketing Peter Obi, their lies would rather draw more people to like him. I know a girl that has been an Atiku supporter c texting me to say she just became Obidient simply because she saw reasons when people argued about Obi. Even many of these cornfuullsed will become Obidient before the next election despite the slavedriver's 30k inducement they're getting. |

Mods, can you please explain to me why you keep yanking my posts off this platform? In my last post on this thread, I called out the Op who claimed Obi is the first southerner to be loved by all nigerians from all regions and i asked him, what about Mko? For this, you placed a ban on my moniker. Why ![]() ![]() |

T8ksy:Cos you actually said nothing. Abiola merely won an election, not that he was loved by Nigerians. Just like Obasanjo, Yaradua, Jonathan and even Tinubu that was rigged in. Love is organic and we all saw how the northerners loved Buhari despite evidence of his incompetence. Same with Peter Obi. That's why no amount of propaganda has affected his standing before Nigerians. For instance, a state like Edo would rather boycott an election than miss Obi. The same with many in FCT and Lagos. Garrit? |

The reason why he has that cult like political stardom in Nigeria is that since the 1993 Abiola campaign when bashorun are ona kakanfo laid bare his solutions of transformation of the country which Nigerians aligned with him; no politician had come close to outlining how their vision and policy can fix the problems of the country till Obi came in 2023 and swept an entire country off its feet with his vision and practical implementation of same to restore Nigeria to prosperity. We looked at his plan , believed in it to transform Nigeria because we do not have any other country than the one they are destroying today, so we became obidient to that vision and goal to restore Nigeria to prosperity and safe country |

Igbophobia:How was Obi loved by all Nigerians? Is it by scoring 99%. In SE and 5% in NW and NE? |
| Re: Is This Why Everyone Is Talking About Peter Obi? by Igbophobia(op): 8:56pm On Jul 17, 2025 |
rinzaugustine:80% of educated Nigerians believe in Obi. This is why he swept most of the urban cities with enlightened people. However, the system is skewed against him because politicians do not care about the interest of the masses but who would reward them individually. Just like Buhari joined APC in their lies, Obi would have to lie to them to gain their support. We saw what Wike is doing? That's vintage politician character. Unfortunately or fortunately, Obi isn't made of the crude stuff. |
