What is he saying? Talk like a man and stop sounding like a woman. Can someone give us a comprehensive list of Presidents around the world that have visited Nigeria since Tinubu became President?!

Now let me tell you all. There is a wonderful development in our ministry of livestock headed by Attahiru Jega in which the government of Brazil has been positively impacting that ministry. You will be a proud Nigerian when it starts bearing fruit. It's one of the achievements by Mr Presidents travels to Brazil among many others.

Sounding like a lost bird in the forest. Can you atleast think before talking next time?

so he should keep quiet and watch tinubu run the country aground ?

There's a level of poise and composure that's expected of a leader, especially at such a high level. It's not every thing that one must comment on.
Besides, whether he talks or not does not affect the president's perceived right way of doing things so he should learn to pick his battles

U dey mind the ajale ...his greatest achievement will be the most traveled president of any country in the world

Tinubu's online bots will soon start attacking Obi for pointing out the sad truth about the president's visits. Late Buhari traveled up and down, later he was called "Ajala" the globe trotter without achieving a pin for Nigeria. All traveling expenses wasted . Tinubu is back on the same trajectory. Two years gone and Nigeria is still bleeding from the illegality of Electoral fraud. When the foundation is faulty, the building cannot stand.

This Obi is not fit to be president of a country.

Is it the president that will fly the plane bombing terrorists, is it the president that will drive the grader that fixes the roads?

You are getting a taste of his mentality as a president. He is so pedestrian!
A governor whose idea of fighting corruption is to pay for petrol himself. C’mon! Did that stop the next administration from corruption in fueling govt vehicles? His mentality and thinking is too pedestrian and low level to be a governor talk less president.

People may not realize this but The biggest victory in the battle against corruption was the removal of fuel and petrol subsidies. He did it without any fanfare without lifting a finger. You fight corruption by removing avenues for corruption not by following people around. This is what Tinubu is doing by computerizing payments such that all payments gondirectly to the govt accounts and can be tracked. Recently they announced customs and VAT payments tracking. It means less corruption at customs and those who collect VAT and don’t remit will stop. This is how you reform….no noise! Government is not gra gra and noise making or “see me I paid for petrol myself so my driver cannot steal”. How many drivers and petrol purchases can he follow and track manually?

No wonder he can’t point to any legacy in 8 yrs as a governor!

With all due respect Peter Obi, Nigeria is not a troubled nation, it never was and never is. And for your information, Nigeria was never a zoo like some people want to make it to be. Nigeria is a great and blessed country, but Nigeria can only blessed you based on what you think of it.

May Nigeria be unto you as you think or wish for the country to be.

It is also good to know that a new Nigeria is imPOssible with Peter Obi (PO).

I believe if you become four years President as you promised;
You will not travel out of Nigeria.
You will not wear more than one shoe.
You will not eat more than APU.
You will not even wear more than black cloth.

Then Nigeria will now look like Anambra.

Hmmmm.

The difference between Tinubu and Obi? Macroeconomics and Microeconomics. Up to down and Bottom Up approaches. Simple.

To Tinubu, it's better I create an enabling environment where big companies thrive but while doing it, people will steal. The bigger the bread, the more the crumbs while cutting.

To Obi, it's better to keep the money so no one will steal and the people can run small businesses on their own.

Unfortunately for Tinubu, most youths now are at the survival level and need that Obi offer bad bad. And Obi knows it too, so he's marketing exclusively to that group.

May the better marketing genius among the 2 win jare.

And for everyone here asking why he's constantly traveling , it's obvious that most of you don't own businesses that needs investors to grow.

After praying Ori-Oke prayers, you will pen down at least 10 investors to start with and start going to meet them, one by one. Consistently ooo.

It's just how it is when you are the one looking for investment.

And it may also apply to countries too. (I am not the president, so I don't know).

How many CEOs of super successful companies would you always find in their offices 24/7? They are the number 1 marketers and the image makers of their companies. They are always out making connections, same is Tinubu.
#But I hate Tinubu now, for rewarding the ignoble attitude of wasiu ayinde with aviation security ambassador just to give him a safe landing is wrong and disgraceful.

Maintaining silence when your fellow countrymen are in great distress is not poise and composure.

And what does 'perceived right way' mean? undecided

Its the right way or it isn't.

BAT is doing very badly. The country has serious problems and he just isn't home.

This isn't the way to lead.
