If PO keeps quiet, how will you APC foot soldiers and your politicians have sleepless nights?

Press their neck, Obi
Me, APC foot soldier. Lol.

Well, that's the limit of your understanding.

Someone is celebrating a birthday and asking people to donate to a national library. Explain why that’s wrong in simple terms:

Obi turns everything into politics. Ordinary citizens mark their birthdays by giving to motherless babies’ homes, their old schools, or other causes. But donating to a government-owned library? That’s everyone's, not something to be politicised. Obi and his supporters should be ashamed.

I see no wrong in what the First Lady said but on a serious note sir, must you respond negatively to everything that concerns Tinubu?
Nevertheless, A New Nigeria is Possible!

Well, there is nothing wrong with donating to the first lady's fund for the national library. At the end, it's quite laudable that at least she is asking for donations in lieu of gifts that she probably won't have use for.

As for the library

1.In saner climes, public libraries do have channels where you can donate.

2.Our libraries are poorly stocked...let's even forget national library....and could need some help via donations. SO far there is no provision for that, but I hope it is done

3.The idea that the government can complete the project when at the end of the day, oil prices have been too low to adequately fund the budget, before corruption...is basically a big ask. Best to face reality

4.We are all not compelled to donate to the library. I am not donating myself....for reasons I will soon outline. I also had the feeling that the first lady appeal was directed to the rich and to the elite political class. Not to the masses. (You want to curry favor with me and my husband? Oya...donate to my National library fund...don't buy me gift that in two years would be useless).

5.All in all, the reason why they ask for donations goes to show that the APC government has failed since 2015 and even now in diversifying the economy. Away from oil. That is why we are in the situation where donations are now needed to complete the library. Again, nothing wrong with donations...but the honest truth is that if we had been serious about our economy since the end of the last oil boom...we would have been using donations for maintenance.



Off topic, but one thing rich nigerians could do is set up a foundation that would build libraries in the rural areas and refugee camps. I could donate to that.

how does all you said negate the points that Obi raised?
He negated himself because he's not making any sense. FG never denied allocating funds to constructing the national library, the more the available funds, the better. So the first lady tasking people to contribute to a national project that is dear to her does not change anything. It only means they'll have more funds to do more. If what she asked is not illegal and is for a good cause, what is he complaining about?

The Tinubus have wrecked this country
What has sen remi tinubu done wrong? Why's Obi calling for insult from the innocent woman? If she descend on obi now, his dogs will be barking. Obi should respect himself.

National Library has been there for ages and I don't think Tinubu that came in 2 years ago, or his wife remi, was responsible and should not be chastised for this lapses.

Obi needs to be careful with this petty politics he's displaying.

that is not what I asked you

You see... This is what happens when you're desperate and have sycophants all around you, you don't know when to speak or keep quiet. If Bukola Saraki speaks now, it holds weight because people understand he hardly says anything so for him to speak, then that thing must be important.

Most of the gains Peter Obi made over the last few years have been eroded with his excessive intakes on the most irrelevant things. Tinubu sneezes, he has something to say about it, and it always ends up being from a political angle. Not knowing when to keep the mouth shut is the reason fishes get hooked.

Now they know how to bait him and what to bait him with, he has lost the mystery about him and that's the greatest mistake he has made.

Cho cho cho cho.

If govt reps respond now, his lapdogs go say everyone dey talk about hoebi.
It's called "OPPOSITION".

It's normal in democracy.

Remember Lai Mohammed? He did it well. So well, he was a thorn in Jonathan's side.

I'm.sure you celebrated him back then.

Now?

Everyone should shut up while the country goes to hell in a hand basket.

Peter Obi now plays politics with birthday celebrations ? Wow! Seems there is no dirty depth this guy can’t descend to in his desperation for power. He’s completely unhinged and it’s so pathetic and sympathetic to see what political desperation has turn this guy into. Obi needs our prayers at this point because the next stage may be a full market display of lunacy.
Highly disappointed 😞. He should have just let this one slide and let the first lady have her birthday in peace.

If those attacking Peter obi are really sincere, they do so based on insincerity, hypocrisy, tribalism, envy, hatred and gross wickedness.

If I were Mrs Tinubu, I will sack my PR after reading this .

U are packaging me to look as if I care for education whereas u make me appear like a disgrace to intellectual minds.

P.O and his team are very intelligent. These are d kind of people that should to be leading this country not illiterates.

Excellency, Mrs Oluremi Tinubu, a happy birthday. May God Almighty, who has been with her all these years, grant her many more healthy, fruitful, and happy
We all know Peter Obi never values women.

God bless President Tinubu,
He groom his wife inside and outside.
She can easily be sent on some political errand and she delivers outstandingly.

She is a virtuous and very intelligent woman.
I always want to have a wife like her.

God bless our first lady

How many people have the luxury to visit a library

Peter Obi thinks that the National Library should not be completed, instead more markets should be built where fake drugs and drinks can be produced and distributed.

It's like this is Seun Osewa. So beware. Talk to him in a way he doesn't like and your nairaland account will be blocked. Nairaland since 2006 and this is what it has become.

The present government lacks quality. It's quite unfortunate. Apart from the fact that they are not prepared for governance, they appear to be people without basic education, discipline and training.

Just a band of thugs leading a country.

Normally I dont like joining issues with low class touts as that will be lowering the bar for me, but I have to reply to this vituperations for the sake of young minds that are in this forum. One of the highest war crimes ever committed in human history is the burning of the Alexandria Library. That singular act set the world civilization centuries back. Put in a proper perspective, we should be at the level of future civilization expected in 22nd or 23rd century. For you to under rate the importance of a national library tells so much of your intellectual level.


erad:
You're a daft person and I fear for you.

What has the importance of National Library got to do with the president's wife requesting her well wishers channel their contributions for her birthday to the construction of the National Library?

That said, stop pulling out stories out of your ass and passing them them across as facts. Why is Ukranian National library still standing? Why are national libraries of countries in war still standing? So a country will leave Nigeria's oil deposits and oil wells that finance our military and go to attack National library? Are you living in 15th century? Your level of dumbness is mind-boggling. You lot are so dumb you've convinced yourselves you're the smartest.
Re: 'we Are Finished ', Peter Obi Reacts To Tinubu's Wife Birthday Request by omowolewa:
So what is the problem?

Source of the money?
Application of the money?
Ethics of the action?
Motives of the action?
Timing of the request?
Library should have been government priorities over insecurity and other infrastructure?
Where is the place Public Private Partnership?
What should an NGO do, if not a project like this?
Mariam Babangida did better life for rural women, her prototype house and Women development Center are still standing to date.
Celebrant should have opted for Cake and Wine?

Gone were the days of constructive opposition, the days of Lai
