See Why Peter Obi Called Olubadan His Brother!!! by Toruibestate(op):
Politics have blinded the eyes of many Nigerians.
Olubadan was Governor of Oyo when Peter Obi was Governor of Anambra and President Tinubu was Governor of Lagos.

They were colleagues before.
So you mean that President Tinubu can call Olubadan his brother but Peter Obi cannot do it.


Is Olubadan the King of Peter Obi village or is he God that can't be someone's brother?


Douye Diri, the Governor of Bayelsa, I've seen close friends of him call him like boys to his face.

Without adding His Excellency or even Governor because they were colleagues.



Many people need grow up.

You lie
They were never in office together at the same time
Obi became governor during the period Ladoja was supposed to be doing second term which he didn't get.

Obi and Oba Ladoja were never colleagues

Obi was governor 2007 - 2014
Ladoja was governor 2003 to 2007, he didn't get the second term in Office

Olubadan left 2006.
Same 2006 Obi was Governor.

So why did President Tinubu address him as his brother and no problem to that?


If Peter Obi was President would you have say anything?

You could have ignored it. I saw it yesterday and didn't see any sense in it.

Should he have called the new Olubadan his sister or his enemy? Those who are doing the arguments are just petty set of people

Is Peter Obi and Tinubu age mate? Or is Peter the same age with Atiku?
Both Tinubu and AA can call Ladoja my brother but not Obi.... cos they are brothers that have come way back.... For instance both were present 21 years ago at Ladoja 60th birthday, where was Obi then?

The reason that gaffe happened is two fold
1. The so called yorubas in his team are not real yorubas that can even tell him about Yoruba culture, one is pretending to sell Amala (ife Salako) while Chinedu gbadebo vivor admitted he doesn't think in Yoruba
2. Obidients in continuation of their bigotry towards yorubas urged him to write this disrespectful letter knowing the man no know his left from right

Always shifting the goal post. So both Tinubu and Atiku can call the Oba a brother, but Obi can't. Imagine a comment from a supposedly sane person.

No, Tinubu end his tenure as governor in 2007, that was when Peter Obi was just a baby governor, first 12 month as governor of Anambra, Tinubu was his senior colleague in politics, a a former Senator in 1992 and governor in 1999.

The use of adjective gives a clearer picture of what the messenger wanted to convey, omission of critical adjectives may not be forgiven in the gathering of linguistics expert because the purpose of communication is to make audience capture the clear image, event or opinion without any ambiguity.

Tinubu and Obi were not brothers in governance and politics but a senior and junior brother respectively

Obi became governor of Anambra state in 2006 and was still the Oyo state governor then. So he's right.

Let's call a spade a spade.

Mr Peter obi was very wrong to call a first class OBA of Olubadan's his friend. He is not longer a governor but a highly revered king in Yoruba land.

I am very sure they were not even friends when he was a governor.

...and you can't compare tinubu with obi. The two of them are not age mates. Stop thinking what ever tinubu can do, obi can do also.
They are not in the same category both age-wise and political sagacity.

You people's poor cultural behaviours have brought you slots of limitations.

Imagine obi calling olubadan his friend on the ground both of them were ex governors.
What nonsense and audacity?!.

Look, in you a land, age places a very significant role in the way we deal with others especially the way we address them.

Atiku, tinubu and the olubadan are in the same age bracket. Mr obi is still much younger.
Re: See Why Peter Obi Called Olubadan His Brother!!! by Kaiser20: 9:57am On Sep 28, 2025
The Olubadan is not an enemy of Peter Obi, but rather a friend and brother.
Africans call themselves brothers and i See no Problem Here.
Nigerians have other issues to solve not this one

The reason people have to speak is all over the thread here, kindly come back and read the comments that are still flooding the thread and you will know why it is is important for people to speak out, it is the same reason some people claim Igbos are disrespectful because some people have pushed the narrative with pettiness like you wrote here and some people buy into the pettiness with ease because of hate.

If Reno was not called out yesterday to show his hypocrisy, imagine the narrative that would have started trending...

You can see on this thread I am defending Peter Obi.

Have you in particular ever defend president Tinubu before or his policies?

Why should I defend policies I know were not implemented well, some of the policies should have worked but like I do say, Tinubu loves putting the cart before the horse, so I already know if it will work or not, so why should I support what I know is not going to work?

So you are saying all the policies by this government, none of them is real..

You guys shouldn't be complaining when your principal is being dragged because that's how you drag others unnecessarily

I never said they are fake, but they are either wrong polixies, wrongly implemented or not even needed at all...

We don't drag others unnecessarily, if we did it might always resort to physical violence like how you guys do during elections...

Some of you are too busy to reflect on your activities on this forum.

The initial question which I asked you, you know you didn't answer it appropriately. You never praised this government before because according to you and your likes, they can never make good policies.

Meanwhile, you are just one out of the many that have been attacking my comments, opinions on this forum for long, they are glaring from your comments history.

You know it's hypocritical to be condemning those who are attacking Peter Obi about his statement regarding the new Olubadan.

Start practicing what you are preaching

Imagine same you coming on this thread to be talking about those who are attacking Peter Obi when you could be worst than them

I'm still waiting for Olubadan or his spokesperson to issue a statement denouncing obi as his friend or brother. If he has not done that I wonder why many people online are whinging over an issue the olubadan himself doesn't see as an issue.

How is it hypocritical calling out a hypocritical narrative of a political jobber who wants to cause hate and division?

Those calling him out, are they not doing a good work?

secondly, you are expecting us to not correct you from doing a terrible work destroying Nigeria by supporting rubbish ?

The same you supported Buhari and all his policies for 8 years and here you are blaming those that were correcting you then who are still correcting you now for the same thing you were doing then...

The question is do you ever learn?

So if people who corrected you for 8 years are now proven right, how then do you want to convince them that they are wrong now for what they are doing to you and Tinubu?
