PresidentMUGABE:
There is something about Peter Obi that many people have not fully realized.

People often describe him as simple, minimalist, calm, transparent, disciplined, and gentle. But have you ever paused to ask yourself this question:

how has a man with such a calm and measured personality managed to survive and overcome so many political battles that many others spend their lives fighting for?

How can a man who has made money in millions still be minimal and very grounded?

there is a secret many are overlooking.

Peter Obi studied philosophy.
And there is an interesting idea from the philosopher Plato that has stayed relevant for centuries:

“The world will not be better until philosophers become kings.”

Why did Plato say this?
Because philosophers are trained to think beyond emotions, beyond immediate gratification, and beyond personal bias. They are trained to contemplate life deeply, to ask hard questions, to search for meaning, and to look at the bigger picture of existence and society.

A philosopher is often driven by rational thinking, careful reflection, and the search for the best possible outcome rather than impulsive reactions. They are trained to weigh consequences, consider multiple perspectives, and think long term.

This may explain why Peter Obi often appears different from conventional politicians. While many see only the simplicity, humility, or restraint, perhaps there is something deeper at work, a philosophical way of seeing society and leadership.

Whether you agree with him politically or not, maybe we should at least reflect on the possibility that Nigeria is witnessing the prospect of leadership shaped by a philosopher’s mind.
And if Plato was right, perhaps that is something worth paying attention to.

ElSudani:
Obi is a mediocre politician no matter how much you try to dress him up in a garb way beyond his stature.

Heffalump:
If it means you exit this world for it to happen, may it come to pass. Who are you to speak when the lord has not spoken

Heffalump:
Obi is still better than your 'emilokan' who has borrowed the destiny of Nigerians into the 10th generation. He's bereft of any positive ideas on how to manage the economy of the nation, such that the only option is to mortgage the sovereignty and freedom of Nigeria through external borrowing. Yet the country continues to wallow in abject poverty, hopelessness, and insecurity. Is that what you called Jagaban?

Putinofrussia:
Mr Obi was a disaster when he governed Anambra state for 8 years and nothing has changed about him.
He didn't build a single school even a tiny one and he owed Anambra workers for 13 months.

Lithiumite:
Forget all these epistle to try to confuse us on why we should vote ur candidate, trust me its only your co obidients that will hail your post......tell us in just 2 sentences what obi will do different......thats what's pertinent to Nigerians right now.

Will obi bring back subsidy,will he stop the floating of the naira,how is he intending to run govt without borrowing, will he stop NELFUND, will he stop state police or keep security in the center,will he stop the moves by tinubu and apc to gradually devolve power from the center such as LG autonomy, electricity sector decentralisation etc.....will he stop the tax reforms,will he stop the construction of the coastal road and such legacy projects of this administration which he himself adduced to that it was a waste of funds? Just pick any 2 of these and lets know what he is coming to do different.

He won't be useless. That summarizes everything.

Just like accountants are trained on how to manage the economy.

PresidentMUGABE:
Obi will not steal and he will not use the future of your unborn children to borrow loans just to share for governors for re-election......

If the country can be resetted after years of plaudering and wastages is a good start....

Obi is presently reshaping how politics is being played in Nigeria....
This is political parties primaries period and no scarcity or increase of forex (Dollars) for the very first time in history of Nigeria...... because of Obi.
That's something.....

Both the leaders and the led needs total re-orientation of their currupt, dubious and bigot mindsets......

May Nigeria succeed...

SixSeven:
I watched Obi speaking to Kayode before I saw Abdullahi's interview. One thing I can tell you for free is that Obi is more measured in talking about ADC and Bolaji, Amaechi etc should learn from this. He never abuses, he was still thanking David Mark for his maturity. He knows he may still need the ADC. ADC on the other hand, from Okonkwo to Momodu keep talking down on Obi. I don't think they have learned anything from how Obi speaks about his former principals. You will never hear him abuse Atiku, even to criticize Tinubu, the interviewer had to ask him if he was afraid of calling Tinubu's name.

SixSeven:
He said: “You mean that APC would be worried about ADC, NDC? I saw Atiku, he is now our best campaign manager because he is attacking Obi, and I see Obi attacking Amaechi.”


Did you read that well? Obi is the main threat to them. Unfortunately, Obi won't attack Amaechi. One of the things Obi had said in the last campaign was that he won't respond to unequals in the campaign, which when you look at it is what all the candidates did. He didn't bother responding to Omokri who was an aide, he said I will talk to your boss. He also does not respond to insults. Soludo tried to demarket him and he called him Professor who knows better can help him fix the problems he did not know how to fix. He call am brother


Tinubu tried to demarket him by saying he won't even call his name but he didn't respond to him at tall so if you are expecting Obi to be attacking Amaechi, sorry is your boyfriend's name.

Last time, it was Gbaja saying the ADC guy should scatter them. Tinubu said he will send Akpabio to opposition and now Oshiomole wants them to fight. If the opposition should take any notes from APC's playbook, it's that they don't want Nigerians to demand accountability from them. If you all focus and press APC's neck, e go choke. They've been in power for 12 years, they have 31+ governors, opposition should be their least worry but we know why a man who can't perform on bed will blame his wife and her family for being barren. Let her family be fighting among themselves when he's the actual problem, at least it takes attention away from the elephant in the room🤡
