Lies will kpai Peter Obi before 2027
“Interestingly, SABMiller comes a distant sixth position behind Fidelity bank Plc with a gross tax payment of N656.5 million in two years (2023 and 2024). In this sense, the claim can be dismissed with a wave of hand as the company in question contributed on the average, N28 million per month in 2023 and N26.62 million per month in 2024,” the agency said.
based on the above, kindly solve the following arithmetic.

1. if you multiply 26m and 28m paid by SABMiller by 12months respectively, what will you get?

2. if you divide 656m paid by fidelity bank by 2years, what will you get?

The report did not say Sabmiller is the highest, it says that Sabmiller is the highest indigenous tax-payer. Others mentioned are not indigenous to Anambra.

Correcting a false narrative is not hate. Obi cannot continue to lie and not expect not to be called out.
Lying is not in our culture and we will not allow Obi to turn Nigeria into a lying state.
You guys sooo wish for this to be true. Even the figures submitted by Anambra State government still showed Sabmiler as the highest revenue generator in the state. Na waa to una

All I see here is own goal by the Soludo administration. Peter Obi said Sabmiller is the single largest indigenous contributor in terms of tax to the Anambra govt and the Soludo Admin just confirmed same and scored an own goal because Peter Obi also said since he left office over 13yrs ago, no other Anambra governor has attracted such direct foreign investment. I’m trying to rubbish Obi, they inadvertently confirmed his claim 💯
Chidibe212:
With this information, it's proven that Mr Peter Obi was right on his statement.

Banks are not government-attracted investments. I and we will keep this information for future reference, before you tell us that investment in SABMILLER is next to nothing.

Aside from Banks, SabMiller is the highest. and, Peter Obi was also right to say "it's one of the highest taxpayers in Anambra State"
mrvitalis:
But it's the highest paying local company in Anambra
Fidelity is still linked to who? Obi?
Sabmiller is not indigenous, Anambra has only 10% stake in it.

Peter Obi is not the owner of Fidelity Bank. His era with them is gone. He might have some shares there but he is certainly not the owner nor the highest shareholder. Get your facts right.
The same bank you and omokri has been using to attack him now you're changing the narrative? Obi is right he said Sabmillar is the highest paying tax company as local company with state stake in Anambra

Obi always getting his figures very wrong. Na by force to be president?
Guy dey calm down...

You should be asking yourself why Obi's political opponents are always desperate to make it appear like Obi is wrong...but they end up exposing their own follies.

Can't you see here that the Brewery is said to be generating 28 million monthly? Multiply that by 12 months in a year;(i.e N336million a year)

Then multiply again by two years(2023&2024)...

...almost N700million.

Now compare that with the about N600million their "highest" payer(Fidelity Bank) generated in the same two years!!

Even though the Bank is equally Obi's bank.

So always remember that in Politics,darkness will always want to swallow light!

[Oga, Peter Obi was the chairman of Fidelity Bank until he became governor and had to relinquish the position for governance.]

That impulsive need to say "the highest tax payers" instead of saying "among the highest tax payers" simply to make it sound all sweet and endearing. Why always trying to sound perfect but ending up hurting the truth?

Na wa o.

How did this get to front page?
Are u guys not tired of trying to use nairaland tarnish Obi image.
There is no negative post of Obi that doesn't get to front page these days
We are tired.
We heard the message and we know who u guys works for.
Give it a rest.
Everyday Obi this, Obi that.
There is nothing u will say or do to Obi that will change anybody's mind
The only thing that can change people's mind is Tinubu performance
Aside that, you guys are just chasing shadows with Obi constant attacks.
Imagine someone that left office 11yrs plus ago

Based on the above, help me do the following arithmetic:

if you multiply 26m and 28m by 12months respectively, what will you get?

also, if you divide 656m paid by fidelity bank by 2years, what will you get?

Why will Soludo hate him when he is far better. Education wise they are not match and performance, Soludo has prove to be better governor. Till today, nigerians are still grateful to Soludo for saving their money in banks who were at the edge of collapsing through his consolidation.

Even if it's a 'distant' 6th, how many ex governors have a have an existing productive venture in that state?

Anambra, Rivers, Imo, Delta and Lagos States are states set up to decorate the pockets of individuals (political juggernauts and kingmakers).

Sadly, like David Hundeyin said, Nigerians are most likely to set fire on an administration that favours them the most like GEJ's administration.

This rebuttal is quite mischievous. Imagine the 1st contributed 656 million in 2023 and 2024 while sabmiller 28 & 26.62 millions monthly in 2023 & 2024. Do the maths and see that the values are about the same. 2nd to 5th are not even mentioned. It's quite unfortunate with Nigerian politicians.
