₦airaland Forum

Ebullience:
The Director General of the Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign Organisation, Otunba Gbenga Daniel has given reasons why Mr. Peter Obi was picked as the running mate to the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Abubakar.

The 57-year-old Obi was a former governor of Anambra State and a former Chairman of Fidelity Bank Plc.

In a statement on Friday, Daniel said Mr. Obi’s choice was largely influenced by his youthfulness, vast knowledge of global and local economics as well as being a financial expert, all experience which Nigeria is in great need at this point in time.

“This ticket will be able to steer our nation back on the path of progress, economic prosperity and unity”, Daniel said.

Born 19th July, 1961, Obi attended the Christ the King College, Onitsha and later proceeded to the University of Nigeria, Nsukka where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy.

The statement continued, “He is also a graduate of several international and national institutions such as the Lagos Business School, Harvard Business School, London School of Economics, Columbia Business School, Institute of Management, Switzerland, Kellogg Graduate School, Oxford University and Cambridge University.

“In public service, he has led various divisions some of which includes: Member, Presidential Economic Management Team; Vice-Chairman, Nigeria Governors’ Forum; Chairman, South-East Governors’ Forum, and the Governor of Anambra State.

“Peter Obi is an astute professional who has laid his footprints across the corporate world. He was the Chairman, Board of Security and Exchange Commission (SEC); former Chairman, Fidelity Bank PLC; former Chairman, Guardian Express Mortgage Bank; former Chairman, Future Views Securities; former Chairman, Paymaster Nigeria; former Chairman, Next International Nigeria; former Director, Guardian Express Bank PLC; former Director, Chams Nigeria PLC; former Director, Emerging Capital: former Director, Card Centre PLC.

“He is a member of the British Institute of Directors (IOD), Nigerian Chartered Institute of Bankers and Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG).

As Vice president and Minister of finance? Vp does not necessarily needed to be an expert in that financial field. He needed such as Finance Minister.

It seems this 2019 general election is on Nairaland...they way you guys commit here and get millions of likes is so funny is it that the persons commenting here are blind to see or they some how kept their brains uninformed to monitor what APC has done...this election is over...Buhari is been reelected ...we just have to leave with it till 2023

I pray this EXPERT will be different from all the EXPERTS we have been using since 1999.
We do not lack people with beautiful resumès, what we lack are people with character and commitment towards building a prosperous nation.
I hope that the current political events in the country will not turn to mere struggle to unseat the incumbent admnistration.
I AM WATCHING.

mightyhazell:
so all these noise over the years hasn't been about patriotism afterall .just sectionalism n selfish interestsl,lol

oh so you are now waking up from reality abi?

babaolofin:
What has the Yorubas gained from the Ibos? It is inferiority complex that makes a tribe to complain of betrayal or marginalization when there is no any agreement between both parties.

Despite IBOs domination of GEJ government & looting of treasury, has yorubas ever complained of betrayal or tribalism or marginalization? Never. The IBOs are trying to put Atiku in problem as they did to GEJ

lies. Yorubas are always the first to complain in every government. Same way you people will complain when Atiku win.

Atiku

This nice cv is good as vice president of the jobless aggressive lazy idiotic pigs of bia-fra terrorist organization.
I am so happy that terrorist nnamdi kanu is happy in his grave, that they have achieved what they want,
No more agitation for succession again.
And i hope terrorist nnamdi kanu will not agitate again from his early grave and be demanding for biafra if Peter obi lost the 2019 election.
Thief atiku and peter obi can only be president and vice president respectively of the jobless aggressive lazy idiotic pigs of bia-fra terrorist organization.

Do not carry this mentality into your daily routine. I hope these are just online antics else it would limit your growth.

JESUS CHRIST is the son of GOD.HE loved us and died for us so that we can have eternal life.we have to love HIM and think about HIM always. We must love others and do at least one good thing in a day such as giving something to others,saying good words to somebody,helping others,sharing what you have with others,comforting others.We should love others.When others cry,we should wipe their tears.

That's why anambra is still nowhere near Lagos state in economy..........chasing shadow.
Even Okonjo Iweala of Harvard university led us to recession.

Recession happened under the lifeless one when alot of people lost their Jobs and companies shut down, MMM became the only hope of a common man instead of the lifeless one will embrace it knowing it will keep people busy he was fighting it. MMM is gone so as the lifeless one.

Your zombeism is getting very annoying

Most of them don't even have pvc!

na Buhari/ Osinbajo we want

Geraway! !
I refused to be articulated am Buharated! !!

I have never seen a region with no single sense of direction like South East, no direction, no vision, no leader, full hatred.they were agitating for independence now just little tip of VP slot they are jumping up and down stupid and myopic set of clowns!

babaolofin:
The IBOs are known as racists all over the world. Ghana & South Africa are just two examples of countries that have identified ibos traits of racism while crying foul of marginalization. Obj, Gbenga Daniel & Afenifere better watch it.

Peter Obi was Special Adviser to Jonathan on Economy in addition to being the Anambra Governor at the time Nigeria made the highest revenue in Africa but did not save one kobo but everything was looted and they borrowed heavily.

Majority of those surrounding GEJ are Ibos including Peter Obi. They gave themselves board chairmanship of strategic & juicy corporations where the DGs & Ministers are also Ibos.

Afenifere, Gbenga Daniel & Obj may be wasting their time.

Try cure ursef of hatred and hatred and tribalism. The Igbo ppl u r fond of castigating and attacking r great people. Peter Obi was a governor and did not tell governors to borrow all the money. he has his track record as the best governor in a state that has poor financial resources. People's fear is if he will be allowed to bring his experiences to bear in the system. It is not about Afenifere, Gbenga Daniel or Obj. These ppl u called r the ones to frustrate him and the system because they r more political than him. Even Atiku is more political than Peter Obi. Our prayer should be to restructure Nigeria so that the states can drive development. No doubt ppl know they will do better than the ones there because those ones are mischiveous. So be hopeful that Nigeria will move forward again.

If elections are won on nairaland and social media, PDP will be in power forever.

Well meaningful Nigerians need no campaign to
install ATIKOBILISATION

Banmeallday:
Really? Integrity? You see why the coupist called you all lazy Nigger area youths.....

In the next 4 years Obi will be involved in another party because he has integrity


Nonsense

Truth be told Peter Obi has intergrity. Our prayers should be that the politicians should not frustrate him. I wonder why some of u gyrate at mediocrity, corruption and evil. I expect ppl to chide Tinubu for his godfatherism over Ambode but ppl r happy praising him. Vicious circle politics. The likes of Tinubu r there to frustrate good leaders in Nigeria. Peter Obi's record is there in Anambra state. He is not a tribalist, nepotism etc. He believes on everyone. For those that believe in restructuring for development this is the time.

pdp is neva coming to power

Algaddaf:
HOW WILL OBJ EXPUNGE THIS FROM HIS BOOK *"MY WATCH"* ��‍♂���

Obasanjo on Atiku:-

_"What I did not know, which came out glaringly later, was his parental background which was somewhat shadowy, *his propensity to corruption, his tendency to disloyalty, his inability to say and stick to the truth all the time,a propensity for poor judgment, his belief and reliance on marabouts, his lack of transparency, his trust in money to buy his way out on all issues and his readiness to sacrifice morality, integrity, propriety truth and national interest for self and selfish interest"*_
