How many times will Journalists continue to ask Peter Obi this?

Are there no more important things to talk about, like to lift millions of people that Tinubu impoverished, out of poverty?

That shows you that Nigerian journalism is dead with stations like ChannelsTV

Have you seen any opinion polls recently? It's because they have nothing to do but talk about Peter Obi

Mr. Gbajuẹ̀, you're a chronic liar and debtor, you will never rule Nigeria.

How does leaving money lying fallow in the state treasury when the state is in tatters, with billions pending in yet-to-be-honoured contractual obligations, count as an achievement? The biggest economy in the world today is the most indebted, but this salt and pepper economist sure knows nothing about that.

Ask him what macroeconomy means and hear the shit load of trash you'd be presented with. This is the most mentally vacuous being I've ever seen, the rarest of the species.

I've read more about Peter Obi on Front Page today than I have read about the entire government of Tinubu put together.

Just 1 interview session has thrown their camp into much turmoil and wahala. It's interesting to see.

Peter Obi hardly ever speaks the truth. Even the current senator of his own senatorial district who is now in his camp, called him out when he lied about leaving money behind for the state. Till date, Senator Victor Umeh has not walked back his assertion.

You left a whole 150 million dollars in state account?
Why?
Not project to execute in the whole of Anambra state?
No developmental initiative?
Sir with due respect,
That's not an achievement.
But in fairness, you are just a 5 centimeters better than your peers who squandered state resources

The real issue is that Peter Obi elevated corniness into a governing philosophy. Funds meant for contractors were left sitting in the bank to earn interest, almost like a fixed deposit timed to mature just after his departure, while the liabilities he left behind outweighed the cash. Yet today he proudly speaks of leaving $150 million.

Don't worry, you can apply for the post of Treasurer-General of Nigeria when we create that position.

It is nothing to brag about in a developing country like Nigeria.

The fact that his supporters point to this as an achievement shows how intellectually deficient and mentally abused many Nigerians are. To them, saving such amount was good because he did not steal it.

The saved $150 million represent several wasted opportunities for improving Anambra. America is the wealthiest country in world, yet it is the most indebted. China with the second largest economy is also highly indebted. There is hardly any wealthy or advanced country in the world that is not highly indebted. The major reason is that development requires investment in infrastructure. When proper infrastructural investments are made, economies grow faster.

A state in a poor country like Nigeria saving $150 million is not a flex. Anambra didn't have the best hospitals, roads and schools in Nigeria when the money was saved. Saving such amount clearly shows that Obi lacks what it takes to take Nigeria from consumption to production. It shows him as someone who likes to play safe, and someone who can't think outside the box. He reminds me of the Biblical parable of the servant that went to hide his talent for safe keeping while his mates invested and multiplied thiers.

After thirteen years since he left office, what has become of the so called savings? A more inspiring leader would have invested the money in critical infrastructure that would turn the state around, and would have done so with high integrity and probity.

Re: I Left $150m In State Treasury; Can Any Governor Show $15m Savings? – Peter Obi by Wotowotoman: 9:51pm On Jul 27
What’s the point of leaving savings when you could have used the money to improve the state? People will respect you more if you left 0 and left Anambra in a much better state. What a desperado angry

It's better to leave money in state coffers rather than loot it. Mr I too know, if the next governor have more business or investment or development ideas, at least he has something to build with. At least he tried.

Don’t expect tinubu to leave any money in the federal treasury after he evacuate the presidential seat. Too greedy and callous at the same time

oga how many lives did you touch? How many lives are you touching at the moment? So many governors use the money to build roads, provide jobs and so on... If you doubt me ask Alex Otti.... Stop all this I left money this I left money that.... During your tenure you did not do anything that's why you thought you should leave that meger amount in the account

Ask yourself, is it everyday Peter Obi goes for interview session? Ask yourself again, why am I seeing Peter Obi say this, Peter Obi said that. Then come back and evaluate your results and finally give yourself some senses kiss

That's why Soludo, a professional in the business of macroeconomics with first class in his first degree and someone with real banking experience, still has a lot of work to do in Anambra because the clueless ones like Peter Obi had no tangible idea or vision on what to do as an executive governor of a small state with lots of underdevelopment grin

So you mean you don't save money. Once money hits your account, you spend everything and start borrowing to survive. Next thing, you become worthless and your economy becomes useless. Then one day, you will hear one dollar is 5 thousand Naira. You're a funny human being. You don't know what they call working capital. That's why your Tinubu wants to finish us with loans. One day, you will hear Nigeria is now a slave country to small China of yesterday

Shat up!
What concerned being indebted with leaving $150million in Treasury?
Agbado and AKara economist what do you know about working capital.
