This man is not an alternative to the present bad administration.
Don't forget he promised to govern for 4 years.

So, the whole first year is to travel to the 36 states to identify the problems.
Second year is to digest the problems.
Third year is to look for the possible solutions.
The the last year suppose to be for implementation of the solutions which is never enough but it will be used to embezzle money.

Does he looks like a serious alternative like this? Capital NO of course.

"I cannot know the problems of Nigeria until I become the President"...Peter Obi🤣


LordIsaac:
And then complaints will begin when he now knows it.
Kushites:
Excuses have started already?

You've not even won yet, you're already telling Nigerians not to expect much from you.

CHAI......

This country is finished..

Imagine if he wins and fails to deliver say 24/7 power?

He will say he didn't realise how complex the power issue was till he got in! angry
ElSudani:
He is clueless. There's no on the job training for the president. You either know what the problems are or you don't.
You heard him, he doesn't know.

Is PO not a Nigerian? Won't you know the problem you have in your family?
What i expect him to say is that he couldn't solve the problem not that he doesn't know the problem.
The problems that are so glaring even the blind can feel it, the deaf can see it.
LottiOk:
So what's he in d race for then ⁉️ If u don't know a problem exists then why are u clamoring to be in control ⁉️🙆🏿
What will he now use to campaign with ⁉️🙆🏿
1. I don't know what d problem in d power sector is but when I get there, I'll ask and find a solution to it 🙆🏿
2. I don't know what's d cause of insecurity but when I'm elected, I'll find out and solve it😁

Nna Obi nwanne should stop granting press releases and interviews at this time cos it further demarkets him and makes him unqualified to assume d role he's trying to win.
sleek214:
You are as clueless and confused as the one you support.
You want to be president of a country that you don't know it's problem. Obi is very dumb and dumb people support him.

Oga, stop dreaming about becoming the president of Nigeria.

You can never be, not even in your next life

Behold the Obidents president. So any questions you ask Peter Obi now about Nigeria problems and solution to them,he would only lie to you because he knows nothing about the Nigeria problems. Obi is the most incompetent presidential aspirant in the history of Nigeria.
yarimo:
Nawa oo and some people see this unserious man as leader
As expected, Tinubu's supporters will flood the thread with their cluelessness...grin grin grin

Your Tinubu that knows the problem, have he been able to fix it after 3 years?...grin grin grin

Your Tinubu promised Nigerians that if he cannot fix Nigeria's electricity problems you should not vote for him again...abi una get short memory?...grin grin grin

shey una dey get 24 hours power supply? ...grin grin grin

Infact, Nigeria is far worse than when Tinubu met it, this is someone that was writing articles upon articles on how to fix Nigeria in his bourdillon house before he became President...grin grin grin

Peter Obi is honest, Peter Obi is the real deal, Tinubu, Atiku and the rest and all their supporters should go and "F" themselves...grin grin grin

Some people are very low in understanding. Obi is very correct. His statement is a philosophical one in nature.
He doesn't know how rotten/ terribly bad Nigeria is until he gets into office. What's bad in that? There are many things happening in government today that're hidden from the citizens.

How do you expect Obi to know many of the real problems confronting the nation? Basic issues like light, bad roads, insecurity, inflation, poverty, and corruption are well known. But the real issues orchestrating these problems are still hidden in the government of the day. Obi is truly an uncommon politician.

That's a good president material if you ask me

Going to the people who elected you to know what they really want you to do for them and doing it the right way .


A good leader will be closer to the people

Peter Obi is spot-on on this one.


Tinubu went to Jos and instead of meeting the people, he stopped at Jos airport and ran away like a thief in the night ..
When Kenneth Okonkwo drew a parallel between Obidients and Obi as per what they've got upstairs, I thought he was exaggerating. You've removed every ounce of doubt I had over the statement. Bravo.

You guys are rushing to hate and it prevents you from using your brains. Everybody including Peter Obi knows the problems of Nigeria. He didn't phrase his sentence correctly but he was trying to say that he would speak to people to understand their pains and their preferred solutions. Please use your brains.

Your tears on Peter obi matter are legendary ooo!!

A private citizen giving supporters of a failed GOVERNMENT sleepless nights.

You want him to show solutions, so that you implement them in a useless manner and claim he said so abi?

PO HAS BEEN ADVISED NOT TO DEVULGE ANY DEVELOPMENTAL STRIDE, BECAUSE THE FRAUDSTERS IN GOVERNMENT WILL IMPLEMENT IS BADLY AND CLAIM PO, SAID SO.

Remember, subsidy removal?

That is how they role...very empty people.

Absolutely correct. Tinubu and Buhari has messed up Nigeria beyond imagination.
Tinubu and Buhari both claimed that it is only by becoming president of Nigeria that they would each realize the problem. Look where we are today with them. How many more decades of our lives are we looking to sacrifice to this same wickedness? undecided

You in your gullible state, don't you know the problems of Nigeria?

Obi by now supposed to have gotten a Blue Print of how to solve the problems but, as we have been saying, he doesn't know anything. No idea on what to do until the mad man from upper Iweka advise him.
Bros it seems you have a perfect solution to Nigeria's from the way you speak. Don't play ignorant cos I want you to give me your solution asap since there no need for you study your problem to give solutions
Re: I Cannot Know The Problems Of Nigeria Until I Become The President -Peter Obi (V by franvincoop: 9:28pm On Jun 12
Can someone advice Obi to stop granting interviews till next month atleast?
Tinubu finally get sense pass Obi, cuz if na Tinubu you ask this question and im no get answer, he will ask ElRufai to answer for him.
But the difference is clear and 1st class and a 3rd class graduate can never reason the same way.

Chai what a monumental disgrace for someone who told us he travelled to Egypt to learn how to fix Nigeria power issue, told us he travelled to Bangladesh and South Africa to see how Nigeria can be better suddenly suddenly im no know Nigeria problems again.
So the new Nigeria that will be possible and Nigeria will be OK na lamba?

Atiku or Tinubu 2027

Hmmmmm I will never forget this man PO. A man who made tinubu and his ruling party to become opposition while they are leading.

PO na man you be. Leave petty people to bleat as usual.
grin see bloda wey muumu…….your Agulu well packaged fraud in so inconsequential in the scheme of things and he is exactly where Tinubu want him to be, helping tilumbu to divide the vote of opposition just like he did in 2023 grin
Re: I Cannot Know The Problems Of Nigeria Until I Become The President -Peter Obi (V by philos(m): 9:29pm On Jun 12
Based on the available search results, I could not find any credible, verified source confirming that Peter Obi said, "I cannot know the problems of Nigeria until I become the president."

Here is a breakdown of why the claim is questionable:

· Unverified Source: The only result reporting this statement is an unverified post on a public forum, citing a social media meme . This does not meet the standard of a reliable source like a major news outlet or a direct video recording.
· Contradicts Public Record: In fact, Mr. Obi has shown a clear willingness to diagnose national issues without holding office. For example, he has publicly criticized the government on topics such as the national power grid, economic hardship, and the president's travel record .
· Known Pattern of Misinformation: Mr. Obi and his team have frequently denied similar claims in the past. His campaign has previously debunked false narratives about his statements, and his aides have clarified that critics often twist his words to mislead the public .

The quote you mentioned is most likely a fabricated statement or a misleading meme circulating online without factual basis.

What Obi said which is what a president should do and the title of the thread don't even align!
Seems we have comprehension issues in Nigeria!
The most unfortunate part was letting it into FP as a way of mocking Obi but only succeeded in making him more popular!

MyExpression:
Has Pres. Tinubu-Jagaban fixed the problems of Nigeria?
Even as an insider, Late PMB was overwhelmed.

I was in the cab today, I and the driver got talking bout politics, than he gave me an innocent example that kinda caught me off guards.
He said...his madam gave him a sumptuous meal, as she usually does, dished in a plate.
He had been full already, as he had eaten from home....but in order not to make the boss feel bad, he took the meat, and ate in front of her, and took the rest outside, and gave to the security man.
After eating the food, the security man later complained to him, that there was no meat inside..........
Instantly, I concluded that the security man was an ingrate.
Then he retorted, that that's how we Nigerians have been towards the president.
His point is contestable on semantics, but I didn't have the luxury of time...

In summary, he - and speaking for some Yorubas, believes that the problem of Nigeria is so overwhelming that you won't know until you're inside, and realize that even a president can't solve it easily, even in 4yrs.

He said he'll vote whoever he likes, but he's not expecting a Messiah that will come do miracles. Everyone should protect their own personal interest.

He's from Ilorin, talked about how he was driving with fear when he travelled for an occasion recently.
No time to persuade him but I did let him know that we can't continue to live with the problems. Other countries are solving theirs.
We should vote for a leader that is willing to try to make things better.

At the end of the day, it's not about party or sentiments.
Ww have tried President Tinubu, we've seen his hands in 4yrs.
Do you want to continue like this or we want to try another hand come 2027.
We've seen Tinubu, let's try another every 4yrs until we get leadership right.
my brother u can never get it right for 4yrs, in Nigeria no president can get it under 4yrs because our constitution and governmental structures are weak and bad so, and in the history of Nigeria as a whole there is never any president who have ruled that received the praises of Nigerians while in office. So in light of all this vote ur choice, let others vote their choice because there is no Messiah anywhere in Naija
