A lot of Obi supporters quickly rushed in, saw the video and left the thread in shame without dropping a word.

Obi is one of most corrupt soul alive.God punish his big head

I have observed a peculiar habit among these people. They can scream a falsehood to the heavens with absolute conviction, but the moment you patiently dismantle it with evidence, they do not reconsider the claim, they simply move the goalposts and manufacture a new argument.

Take Tinubu, for example. They had convinced themselves that he dared not visit the US. Then a 2023 record of his visit to the US Chambers of Commerce surfaced, including his statement, “I bring Nigeria to your doorstep.” Faced with evidence that destroys the jaundiced narrative, their response is no longer about whether he can visit the US. Suddenly, the question is now “Why did he visit when Biden was president?”

Then there is the claim that Peter Obi left the Anambra Government House without owing a dime. Soludo’s administration has challenged that narrative with contrary figures. Yet, rather than address the substance, like donkeys with blinkers, their response change to “Is it a crime for government to borrow?” Is that the argument? Who said it was a crime?

And when they insist that Obi is exceptionally prudent with finances, questions arise about the expensive handbag associated with his wife, Margaret. Their response is that she has her own business and is not Peter Obi. Fair enough, but then, by that same logic, was Aisha Buhari not also a woman with her own identity and business independent of being Muhammadu Buhari’s wife?

Obi is nothing but a great failure and a great liar.

Obi has been uncharacteristically quiet since Soludo opened the ‘pandora’s box’
Obi should be declared missing if he doesn’t speak up after 24 hrs

even Dem don tire for obi, they are tired of defending his bullshit

Them don attack everybody tire n they see we ain't backing down, obi had a free ride in 2023 cos people no too get him time but this 2027 ehn we will expose him as the fraud that he is

Watch what they all said about Peter Obi before now. They said great things about him before he ran for president in 2023. They all agreed that he is an exceptional leader.

They all know and agree that he is the best candidate so the key question is what changed?🤷

Like the proverbial kick of a dying horse, his followers, just like donkeys with blinkers, are still attempting to explain Peter Obi out of the shiit.

One of them just said it was federal government that borrowed the funds, not Anambra. The other one was asking, "is borrowing by government a crime?". Another said, the money he left should be subtracted from what he borrowed. That is the cacophony of noise coming from them.

The good it that is his own kinsmen that are exposing him not other tribe

It is understandable. Tinubu is under serious political stress and strain. So you guys got to work overdrive. Tinubu govt and his array of many attack bulldogs lackeys cant get him arrested prosecuted and jailed?

We will see how all these end. Tinubu is still begging for his heroin drug file not to be release in a US court.

They never said he stole the money so there was no need for investigation. The point being made was that he is a heartless man that refuse to pay workers their salaries without considering that they have families to care for. Rather he gave the money to a private contractor as a loan. Is that not wickedness.

At this point Gringori should set about writing an autobiography titled: Memoirs of a Spectacular Nutcase.

The man is a disgrace.

Ok. So let the relevant govt agencies and courts investigate to determine Peter Obi culpability or otherwise. The water corporation issue was an inherited problem, but nevertheless govt is a continuum.

He was named Gbajue by Chief Wole; I haven't found fault in the name yet. Quote me daily!

The point is that he was in the position to pay them as the money was already approved for their payments but he chose business over the lives and families of workers. It is a thing of conscience and not about authorities investigating anything.

This is between Soludo and Obi. Peter Obi voluntarily challenged his chi to a fight. Now, he’s paying for it. The his has noting to do with Tinubu. Thanks.

All these talk yet nobody has come out to say Peter Obi is owing them?

Una no fit call EFCC, ICPC, Police, etc to arrest him till now

Na wao 😏

SeeWahala:
All these tall yet nobody has come.oit to day Peter Obi is owing them?

Una no fit call EFCC, ICPC, Police, etc to arrest him till now

Lol

You go cope tire.

You can waste away your worthless votes again on Giringori.

If anything, that is what we want.

And still sacked the workers despite owing them.. The devil is a saint for where Peter Obi dey.

#NoVacancyInAsoRock

-Kiss the truth!

Mods, take this news to the front page.

Owing workers 42 Months Salary is evil and barbaric. This agulu fraud is not only a gbajue, but he is also wicked!

Not only are these things false and are of no use, but they’re coming too late

People have become more resolute than ever to see Obi’s presidency through

They are called zombies for a reason.

Exposure right and left and center

Keep fooling yourselves

It's four years and you have not been able to verify anything and nall him.

APC supporters of Yoruba Muslim descent fear and dread the name Peter Obi, from morning to night they just can't stop calling his name, they have been digging every pit in Anambra for something to use in discrediting him which is not an easy job. There biggest shocker will come when Atiku decides to step down for Obi Kwankwaso

i left $50billion when i left as governor.

the greatest gbajue of our time

Yet efcc with their microscopic network has not arrested and rubished him.Please my dear patriots look for another parameter not this one.
