Nigerians, isn't this the kind of leader we have been yearning for since 1960? Hope he takes over the mantle after Atiku's 2019 presidency. Let us groom this man as vice president armed to take over from Atiku and be president in 2023. This is all we ever dreamed of in a leader. Nigerians let us make this work. Great opportunities only presents itself once and once only! Let us not be blinded by tribal sentiments. Let us see the greater picture clearly.
He is not taking over from Atiku. The NW still have their term to complete. Ndi Igbo is not interested in any politicking, but who will fix this country. I want all regions to taste the Presidency so that when an Igbo man heals the country, then they would know who their savior is.

I prefer the ticket to be zoned to NW or NC.

Modarun:
Former Governor of Anambra State, Mr. Peter Obi, was spotted on Bourdillon Road, Ikoyi, Lagos, where the former Lagos State Governor and National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu resides.

Obi, in a widely circulated photograph, was spotted with a friend walking along the Bourdillon Road, without any security detail attached to him, like other politicians would have.

Mixed reactions however, trailed the photos, as at that time, cos the reports that Obi, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and Tinubu were forming alliance to float a new Mega Political party ahead of the 2019 Presidential election.

I remember the day I was travelling from Abuja to Lagos and I saw Obi as governor, carrying his bag without any security details...I was marvelled. To make matters worst, I saw him in an economy seat....intact, I give it to him....he is really a humble leader any day, any time.

Haha, you think Peter's security was not there with him? I sincerely doubt. Although peter does not come across as a wrong man. For Fashola, I believe he will have no problem strolling around there as well but being a super minister, he must have lots of enemies.

I would have voted for him if he was vying for the president position but as vice to Atiku? Not sure.
Even if he is running as President and Vice, you won't still vote for him. We know your type.

Gullible Nigerians you all said better things about that shoeless man...today he is history after him and his party brought so much mess for the apc. Our problem is not quality leaders but bad system which will not allow them work

The first time I saw his convoy at Sam Mbakwe airport Owerri. I couldn't believe a sitting Governor would do that.

At Abuja Airport ask any porter about him and they will tell you that nobody bothers to help him carry his bag because he does it himself. He doesnt use the VIP wing and will sit among other passengers discussing any topic they raise while waiting for his flight.
I had an encounter with him and decided to challenge him intellectually and he didnt disappoint me with his answers and ideas.
Re: Peter Obi On Bourdillon Road Without Security Details (Throwback Photos) by technuel: 10:25am On Nov 02, 2018
The man is simple die even when he was a Governor he use to trek round while his convoy will be somewhere making noice. Then in Aroma Juction Awka he use to interact with Zikite students, I can't forget his words of encouragement then.

You don't know him an inch that Is his way not even for political reason, I know him very well Peter Obi is a very simple man even when he was the Governor. If you see his house in Agulu you will entrust the whole og your resources to him to manage. Atiku really made a great choice and it shows that he is ready to work.

It's normal
Bourdillon is a secured environment
I still wonder why they didn't snap him waking like this on the best of the streets of Abia and of will know if is simple.
You can't always reap from the labour of those who made their place sane and be here forming SIMPLE.
Re: Peter Obi On Bourdillon Road Without Security Details (Throwback Photos) by Yoighaman(m): 10:33am On Nov 02, 2018
I am not rooting for Peter Obi but I can categorically tell you that this man is one of the simplest, unassuming, level-headed, intelligent and down to earth Businessman-cum-Politician of our time.

I recall he visited a friend's office in Lagos some years back as an incumbent governor, he came in quietly and was even made to wait by the 'receptionist' who probably didn't realize that was who Oga was waiting for, she had expected sirens and all the noise to usher him in and thought this must be another Peter Obi, bearing the same name as the Governor and even gisted with him for a while....to cut the long story short, she almost fainted when she eventually realized it was the Governor, an incumbent for that matter....his humility and simplicity 'swept her off her feet'

You dont know that part of Ikoyi. You practically don't need security around there. It's a very cool place to work back then but same time very boring.
What about Aroma Junction Awka that he use to trek when he was the Governor is it also as secured as Ikoyi the man Is simple just give it to him

20,000 cash for anyone who can tell me the number of security men, security detail and security cars behind the camera protecting him.

Peter is as free as air, so free to a fault. I ran into him at Onitsha around Hero Company of Atani road just 4 days to the election that ushered in Willie Obiano. He was standing by the road side discussing with a man without any security close to him. A sitting Governor standing at road side in Onitsha 4 days to election without security. As we drove by I told my colleague that was Peter Obi and he said its impossible considering election is near n we had to turn back to confirm it was him. We greeted him, shook hands and left. He is all Nigeria needs right now. We can't afford to miss this ample opportunity and a rare gift of Peter Obi.
