I raised this point earlier. Most posters on nairaland only read the topic heading and never bother to read the whole article. There is no where in this article where obi said he is joining pdp

But my annoyance is the fact that all the media houses used almost the same heading -- "Obi Joins PDP".

I hope Obi continues to be the man I believe he is and stay put in APGA

This is amazing to me so you people take this party thing more serious then the poli-thieves, they are just playing one elite game they learned from Oyibo but you know us what ever we learn outside our own way is x 1000.

Most comments here shows not many people read the whole piece..or Some may have construed diffrent
meaning to the piece.
My understanding from this scenario is that obi have not left apga to join pdp..its not that an easy decision.. As in, to declar for pdp right on the spot..its synonymous to a father disowning his son for no just reason..obi got some reputation .
don't take this press garbage hook line and sinker.
Then your naivety is just so clear.

Do you think the array of personalities could have converged at Obi's place without there being some prior negotiations and agreements?

That man has since joined the PDP before that visit. The party bigwigs just went to formalise it.

Politicians are forward-thinkers. Obi just repositioned himself for political relevance and I think he has a right to so do. There is really no time to waste...

U are only protecting PDP members who are only fighting for their pockets and not how to move Nigeria foward. Now tell me which party U can find well performing Govnors in Nigeria the likes of Fashola, Rochas Oshomole Aregbesola Amaechi this people have come together to defend Nigeria from evil act. And move Nigeria forward . They said 90 % of Nigerians are not thinking and it is true
If the Aregbesolas, Amaechis, Fasholas, Okorochas and Oshiomholes you called performing governors stay aside as they now do, and watch as Buhari, Atiku and Kwankwaso struggle to get presidential ticket of APC, then what is the good performance about those governors? For now it appears that those governors are struggling for VP ticket in APC. Born to rule led Nigeria for up to 38 years since independence. Why must APC aim solely to return Nigeria to the hands of Born to rule so soon?

Re: Peter Obi Finally Joins PDP by oneeast2: 7:17am On Oct 08, 2014
I was the first person to make this observation. Peter Ob will take over from GEJ. GEJ mounted a lot pressure on Obi to join PDP so that it will position him for the presidency come 2019. Firstly he will be SFG from next year and run it till 2018 when he will declare interest to run for the highest office in the land. Just look at the who is who that came to woo this simple gentle man.

Because of Obi, Anambra became the second home of the president where he goes every now and then to commission one project or the other..the same thing GEJ will send a representative if it were elsewhere..

Who says that GEJ do not love the Igbos..

So because Peter Obi talks like a woman, that disqualifies him from becoming president of Nigeria? In other words, a woman is not qualified to be president of Nigeria? Again, in other words, better Biafra be actualized than have a woman as president of Nigeria? Fiend, you have the mindset of a Taliban commander, an Islamic extremist. You are fit for membership of Nigeria's main opposition party.
Lol see inferences o. What i meant to say was that you can't just dash Nigeria Presidents like. Just because a section of the country wants him to be President because he's Ibo doesn't mean the rest of Nigeria wants him. Besides he's not even Presidential material. What did he do in Anambra to merit any aspiration to be president?

Re: Peter Obi Finally Joins PDP by oneeast2: 7:26am On Oct 08, 2014
He did that exactly. Last Friday night he had a meeting with Obiano and Umeh where he broke the news to them. Nwanne you need to understand this is about 2019 and we need to position our best eleven. Peter Obi is being positioned to take over from GEJ..I have some informations I cannot share here yet. Just go and write this somewhere..


OdenigboAroli:


At least ,let him give us the honor of consulting with his party members. Especially,Obiano.
I dont want anything to come between him and Obiano,even if he chose to leave.
I dont want anything that will bring bad blood in the midst of Anambrarians.
Re: Peter Obi Finally Joins PDP by oneeast2: 7:30am On Oct 08, 2014
Go to Anambra and see what he did in the following areas:

Health

Education

Infrastructure development (Across all the communities not just the urban centers)

Agriculture

Job creation through attraction of FDIs and local investors


He did all these without borrowing a dime for 8years. Its a feat an ordinary Nigerian governors are yet to attain. Peter Obi and others..

Peter Obi must have exited a collapsing house. If Gov. Okorocha had stayed behind in APGA, perhaps by 2015, APGA could have won the entire SE states and even beyond. If Okorocha accepts VP position under a born to rule presidential candidate in APC, alas must his ambition to become president not be ended the same manner Born to rule ended Alex Ewueme's run to succeed Shehu Shagari? Don't believe the political climate has changed for the better,

@OP,I didn't see anywhere he declared for the PDP in that report.He,in fact maintained the same stance he'd always ever since PDP started wooing him even while a Governor,that of everyone in the region working together regardless of political persuasion.

Finally, after protracted request that he be given time to get back to them and the insistence of the forum that time was of essence, he joined.

Mr media spin doctor u have to do alot more than that. You're even shooting yourself and your boss in the foot. Anambra is not a top IGR generating state. A governor that doesn't borrow money and doesn't generate anything from IGR is a governor that relies only on federal allocations. Which begs the question of where he got the money to perform all the "miracles" you just listed.

So many a abandon road and the man should be locked up now

well there's no way he can complete the building of all the roads in the state, there have been others befor him and they didn't do enough works. Before he step down he made public speech and declare that he's paid for all the roads under construction and still left some money in the state treasure. Let his successor continue where he stop. Thats how development comes.
Re: Peter Obi Finally Joins PDP by oneeast2: 7:47am On Oct 08, 2014
Forget about the news paper generated IGR. All those states you claim that has higher IGR still went to capital market to raise bonds and all. It is about the background of the person in charge. Have you heard what Iwela meant when she said the Peter Obi was the most fiscally responsible governor in Nigeria? Let me tell you, you can manage your meager resources to achieve far above the person with bigger allocation. It all boils down to good management of resources and placing your priorities aright. Things will just fall in place..

Managing Director of World Bank, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, has described Governor Peter Obi of Anambra State as the most fiscally responsible governor in Nigeria.

This feat, she said, had enabled Obi to use public fund for public good "which informs why there is need for Anambra people to rally round him so that the state can achieve its development objective".

Lol wayo man. Nothing like that in this article. She simply never said so, u just manufactired it. Bros I'm sure you have your reasons for loving Peter Obi but he simply hasn't done anything to merit being President except for the fact that he's Ibo. We cannot afford another "Jonathan" at the helm of our affairs. Our next President must be someone i must at least be proud of watching on cnn, unlike now where i switch off my tv in shame whenever my President is on.

Listen to our next President come 2019. He is very sound and speaks very well not like an average Nigeria politician that shouts all over the place.
