Just imagine how you completely confused yourself. How does this comment make sense to you? Tinubu attracted Econet to Nigeria and yet Econet is nowhere to be found. Where is that sane Econet today? Can you tell us how the same Econet packed up? If the business was profitable, why did Econet pack up or why bring the then Vmobile?

Making claims without substantiation can send you to jail. Can you show evidence of Obi’s ownership of shares in the brewery? Agreed but not conceded that he owns shares, he left power 11 years ago and yet the brewery makes billions annually for the state and citizens. Today, it was evident from the state government just three days ago published that the brewery is the largest government owned tax paying business in the state. Or you did not read that?

When you say people were not born while Tinubu was the Governor of Lagos state, can you tell us your age then and where you reside in Lagos. We can tell you exactly what happened in that area then. Certainly you were not more than 5 years old in 1999, that is if you were born before that year. Tinubu received tax from Econet and today, we hear stories of how his tax collection in Lagos made him the man that he is today in the same Lagos. Get small shame na.

Take you little time to read the below link for better understanding:

I don’t see you as one who’s thinking bro.

Who’s the world well recognized fraudulent man between the two of them? Between the two, who’s the person whose source of income in not known and yet is rated among the wealthiest men on earth.

When they went into the last election, you all relied on Buhari’s acclaimed 12 million votes? What happened, even with the APC in power. He scored 8.9 million votes, the worst in the history of Presidential elections in the country. The same Obi who was said not to have structures shocked all of you. Why is Obi second by second in your thoughts?

I wonder how some of you continue to delude yourselves. While your wish is for Obi to run on the same ticket with Atiku, you deliberately ignore that as it stands, Obi rates presently higher by far than Atiku in national politics. The coalition needs him more to authenticate themselves and not vice versa. Why not Obi/Datti on the platform of an organized PDP? How can Tinubu overcome that with his very low national rating and daily dislike from citizens, who are tired of hunger. Or do you want to say that the hunger in the land not enough motivation to get even Lagosians to vote against APC?

If Obi does not have the appeal, why do you bother about him? The last Osun state election saw poor performance on the part of LP and you all quickly used it as your standard for the Presidential election. Your shock when the Lagos, Abuja and Delta results were read made headlines.

If it was so simple as you claim, why did Tinubu not achieve victory by 1 pm at the last election? Or you think that political jobbers decamping to APC translates to election victory instantly. You forgot that Obi’s name secured seats for unknown persons in the last elections, with even an Okada rider coasting to victory easily?
In which State is an Okada man coasting to victory? Care to tell us? Can you tell us how your Messiah made his first million since you were his PA?
I really wish it'll just be Tinubu against Obi in next election. Let me see where he'll see the 6 million vote he got in 2023.

See, politics is arithmetics, calculations and insight. Do not base your thoughts on sentiments or what you simply see, or rumours.

When people said before 2023 that Obi did not have structures, he said the people were his structure. He showed what it meant at the polling booths with over 6 million votes. When Tinubu famously said “Obi is is boy”, he realized his folly with his comprehensive defeat in Lagos state and Buhari’s defeat in Abuja by Obi.

You make the mistake of looking at the capacity of Atiku to secure the ticket and compare it with the feeling of the citizens on the streets. At least Obi’s birthday yesterday showed the whole world what’s happening in the minds of the people. While Reno Omokri focused on Obi not been present at Buhari’s burial, he overlooked Kwakwanso and the rest who were not present. Obi is the national topic and not Atiku. For a resounding victory, permutations are made. Securing Governors and NASS members into APC is irrelevant. The issue is the citizens who are tired of hunger in their homes. Whoever deputizes is not the issue. The issue is credibility and the belief of the people. Tinubu may have state resources, but he can be defeated easily. If he defeated the incumbent GEJ, what makes him immune to defeat in 2027? By the way, what makes you think that APC has not been making offers to him to keep him quiet?
Sincerely, I get your point very clearly and we are in the same boat who have a common enemy (Tinubu). My priority is to wrestle power from Tinubu-led APC, I'm only seeking for a better solution. If Obi were to run under ADC, I'll prefer El-Rufai to deputise him. El-Rufai is a big-wig politician in the North. And the best thing that will happen is for Atiku not to run at all. What do you think?

That’s exactly my line of thought…pairing Obi with El Rufai on the ADC ticket, if it is agreeable. I think that it is exactly what El Rufai is driving at. Atiku has to drop his ambition and support the any candidate that ADC brings up, especially if it is Obi.

We could see from 2023 that there were no 12 million Buhari supporters. I think that if ADC is well organized, they can give APC a run for their money in 2027.

How you call others kids is so funny, young man. How are you easily so able to arrogantly display this level of ignorance? Can you please tell us what became the fate of Econet? How and who did Econet merge with, if any. Can you please let us know? While there’s no dispute that the allocated 0802 still remains, can you tell us what happened to Econet after 2004? Can you tell us who owns the Bharti Airtel? Can you tell us the shareholding structure in Airtel Nigeria? Can you tell us what percentage of Airtel Nigeria is owned by Lagos state government, as you evidence that revenue is generated in that capacity? Can you tell us how Lagos state makes some money from Airtel?

Again, what you do not know about International brewery in Anambra state, do not shoook your mouth into it, without proper information. Ignorance is not an excuse friend. Can you please prove that Obi has any share whatsoever, using either his personal name or his business name in International breweries.

I do not intend to continue spending time with you talking this matter, if you are not willing to research without bias? You must take away the bias in your kin to make a clear decision on International brewery.

y did obi stop el rufai from moving when he was anambara governor?
Cause it's an election day, no movement. Besides, El Rufai doesn't have any business been in Anambra that day because he's not an eligible voter.

Oga where you in another planet when election results were called in 2023? Where you far away when certain persons were introduced by the nature of their jobs before the elections? Go and read the name Donatus Matthew and stop displaying ignorance here.

You're dull! So Obi's picture is the symbol of Labor Party? Are you sure you're OK?
Obi ran on the same platform as he does and automatically, Obi now became the symbol of his party because someone won from the same party he ran on.
Whose name was on the ballot? Obi's name or Matthew's name? So Obi that can distant 3rd in Kaduna state is the one that influenced the victory of a Rep candidate who is an indigene of the state? How does what he does have to do with his victory at the polls?

Chai, now I see truly that being an olodo can be in born. Sometimes it can be genetic. I am very ok ojare, except that I did not notice that the fellow I was responding to was an olodo.

When I said that Peter Obi was the symbol of Labour Party, you thought that it meant that his face was on the ballot paper in the HOR election? Chai? Why have I wasted so much time with someone like this from Sambisa forest?

So you did not know that Obi’s personality towered so much within many states, and many candidates secured their victory simply because of him? So you did not know that those who secured their victories did so because citizens were voting Obi in the name of LP? Maybe you did not notice that many potential candidates regretted not picking LP forms, seeing the outcome with those who succeeded.

I wonder how a fellow who did not even know that certain individuals, who were fortunate to pick tickets with next to nothing fees, won their elections on the support of Obi’s followers. Someone who did not know that an okada rider won his election and thanked Obi and Obidients graciously and you did not know.

Let’s just hope. For me, Obi stands a better chance than Atiku. The south should be allowed to complete their turn in 2027. That was why Atiku teamed up with others to fight for the north and remove GEJ in 2014.

You're yapping nonsense that can not be proven beyond the delusions in your head. You categorically said Obi is the symbol of Labor Party, that's why Matthew won. So I should assume he won based on the personality of Obi? What prove do you have that the guy won because he was also running in the same party with Obi, beyond your conjecture?
Obi won Edo State by a very wide margin. How many seats in the Senate or house of representative did the Obi effect won for those who contested on the LP platform? By your crooked logics, it should be at least 70% of the available seats since Obi won by similar margin. Abi Obi no be LP symbol in Edo State? Nonsense!!! Person contested and won an election that doesn't have anything to do with Obi (Obi didn't even campaign for him o), but this one is saying it's because of obi simply because he was a bike man. Did his people tell you they didn't know him before obi decided to contest? Make it make sense please.

This tweet is currently trending on X and I decided to share.

Peter Obi is a tribal bigot. He was widely quoted on national television that the SSS was right to detain me for 48 hours in an hotel in 2014 on the grounds that ”El-Rufai has no business being in Anambra State as it is not Katsina State”! I sued the SSS and awarded N4m damages.
