I had 2 hours discussions each with two well connected analysts from Nigeria in Dubai here few days ago.

My brother, what we know and discuss on Social Media is less than 5% of what these guys know but will not say in the open.

Festus Odimegwu supporting Buhari would have been a surprise to me if it was before my discussion with these two independent gentlemen in the last few days.

Guys, the private sector bigwigs are all behind Buhari except Jim Ovia (who is even mid-way sef), Jimoh Ibrahim and Atedo Peterside.

Don't ask me who Dangote, Femi Otedola and all these billionaire businessmen are backing.

One them from the South West, I was told by this friend who is an ED in a company in Lagos, was moving around his company asking staff who they wanted to vote for and one staff replied "Jonathan", wanting to impress this billionaire CEO who is a well known friend of GEJ administration. He was surprised when the man scolded him as "so it is that under-performing man you want to support?". And this is someone you see with GEJ!

A former CEO of one of top banks in Nigeria and a reference point in banking in Nigeria, told this friend I had a discussion with, "if Tinubu had run a bank, that bank would have been the most successful in Nigeria. The guy is just too brilliant. I have run bank for many years and sat on the board of many companies, but I have never met a savvy strategist like that man. When you sit down with him, and talk to him, you will think you're talking to someone that is a boardroom guru, a corporate strategist. He's thinking 3 steps ahead, when you're thinking 1". If a former CEO of a top bank is talking about someone with such awe, then know he meant it.

These Obasanjo boys, private sector guys, are fully clandestinely backing APC.

From my discussions I even got to know who was funding APC, and don't be surprised to hear that the biggest APC financier is a PDP general!

Mewa nlo!

alaoeri:
Nice piece, coming from a sensible Biafran.
Sai Buhari.

mrborntodoit:
As for the list of youths,google is your friend.

As for governing multiple ethnic states, I can do it without sentiments . I'm very sorry if you don't believe in yourself.

Please don't quote me again,I don't have time to waste.

Thanks!

Honesty and modesty is a virtue indeed!

Gbawe:
Indeed. Very 'layered' and sublime submissions. Odimegwu speaks well and patriotically. The section quoted below, for example, succinctly relays the crux of the matter which is that good and exemplary leadership, that genuinely transform lives plus deliver positive changes citizens can see and feel, speaks for itself. Good and effective leadership does not need propaganda or the need to deploy desperate mudslinging.

I know Real Nigerians when i see them, Great,Sincere Compatriots who are not buying the clueless and corrupt Jonathan (PDP) antics. i wish we have more Nigerians who think like this and aware this is only country we have. And our biggest problem has been good leader who is selfless and not corrupt,courageous and de-tribalized. Jonathan has finished us as a Nation,making mockery of who we truly're. We need a leader who makes Nigeria a borderless country,bridges and roads from east to north, modern days tube trains from west to the south, across board economic development from bottom up. Who inspires us to grow as people(NIgerians) and believe in our collective destiny as people with common interests,that what is good for the Ibos,hausas-fulani is also good for the niger deltans and yorubas. i believe in my people as I shed tears writing this post,that we can be the greatest on eatrth in 10years with our resources across the land, our undying hope and handworking people. I lived in Abu Dhabi,UAE with my family,my wife and my child who both have US passport due to my wife American citizenship but sad when i traveled with my family due to my green Nigeria passport though they have Nigerian passport too but they used that only when we visit Nigeria. I want to see my country growing in strength economically and militarily because of our poplulation,growth is on our side by buying what we produced more than imported and militarily because nations envy us growing and successfully,that's been how nation successfully grow. i want to be proud of Nigeria as nation and hope of black race. i want to have confidence in the system that when i buy nobody can steal or take it away from me,when i invest my investment grows while i watch and when our people serve the system and become old wnen they cannot work anymore,their pensions are not stolen. A nation we can bequeath to our generations to come. when i visit the mall for groceries i saw products,fruits,vegetables that're tagged with their country,farmers are making more money from those countries with help of their leaders,i saw few african countries but not Nigeria who birthed in savannah,the greener- most part of africa. We truly don't need Jonathan i swear my people,we deserve a better leader like Shayk Zayed of UAE,an old man who shaped the future of his people,He put wealth in the hands of their people,paying the bset expats in the world to train their people,to construct the best bridges and roads across land. And make the best,quality education free for the locals from basics to ivy league universities in the world free for their people. Health insurance worth #10million each for the citizens,that re globally accepted. the system make available such for us too as an expats who live and work in their country. We have all it takes to be great,we deserve better leader,we should challenge our leaders on performance not his religion on where he comes from,after-all he is a Nigerian.

mrborntodoit:
It's people like you whom refused to educate themselves and finally blame it on the FG.

You don't know me ,but you already judged me.

Go school,una no go gree .

Nakarey:

joseph1013:
Suraj, I'd like to ask: why do these support Buhari when they could easily stand with Jonathan and continue to loot the treasury together? Because I'm aware that Buhari would sanitize alot of things that would eat into the profits of most of these corporate guys. What's in it for them?

minister2015:
may be U don't know; what is an intellectual is? pls google biography of soludo n festus to know whom they're academically, i dont mind u telling me who u think r the igbo intellectuals.
