Peter Obi has suddenly become a corruption apologist; how could he seriously say that corruption doesn't affect the economy; imagine how much that could have gone to infrastructure, jobs, education, manufacturing, health, agriculture etc that are being systematically diverted by corruption - I guess he might be trying to takeaway the spotlight from his supposedly kleptomaniac master, Atiku, who is alleged to be fantastically corrupt.

This is the same blunder gej made saying stealing isn't corruption. Thunder fire Pdp.

Exactly!

As a matter of fact,If I were to present a seminar paper on the top ten economic policies that will transform Nigeria's economy, a more systematic and technologically driven fight against corruption,would top my list.

Sadly many political mumus will clap for Peter Obi.

Which other economic policy can work with monumental corruption?

PMB VS #THEM
-Shortly after he resumed office, they sponsored Avengers to halt oil business(Country's major income), he tackles them.
-They later sponsored IPOB secessionists, he silenced them
- Being the promoter of farming, They bought, hoard and even destroyed the farm products after the harvest, to create hunger in the land and ignite civil uproar, but he invested more in farming to bridge the gap they have created
-They made an attempt on his life, God Helped, healed and returned him back home, after months.
-They ganged up with the criminals in the NASS to scuttle all progressive bills and laws in order to make him bow, he remained resolute.
-They used the riffraff, thugs, puff heads and the bleaching common-nonsense in the senate to ridicule him and distract him, he remain indifferent.
-They imported, smuggled deadly-weapons and sponsored killings, and internal crimes to tarnish his government, he squared up their effort and keep beating them.
-They took false campaign of calumny against him to foreign countries, in return he gets more support and encouragement from international world.
-They resolved to begging him not to contest again, he left them in tenterhook and suspense.
-Now they knelt down and beg military to take over. He smiled.
When you hear these people crying, please note that Nigeria is progressing, and getting off its hook.
They prefer anybody apart from him, they presented/suggested many options within their circle.
As they create the distractions and the sabotage, he remains resolute, focused, determined, calculative and committed to the welfare and well being of his country masses.

PMB IS SMARTER!
By: Adolf Ransom Pepple
Atiku has engaged the man who allegedly manipulated the United States presidential election results in favour of Donald Trump. He has paid the man $1m to help him rig Nigeria's presidential election in his favour.
But when they were strategizing in Dubai, it was observed that such rigging cannot happen in Nigeria if electronic transmission of results is not deployed.
The Senate President, Bukola Saraki, who is Atiku's Campaign DG smartly manipulated the electoral act bill, removed the clause that says votes should be counted. It contains only the one that says results should be announced. He also made it mandatory that results should be transmitted electronically in a country where almost half of its territory has no communication network. How can you announce a result that was not counted? So their rigging expert can manipulate the figures online. If he could do it in United States, is it in Nigeria that he cannot do it? This is the secret behind their jactitations that they will defeat President Muhammadu Buhari.
And one Oby Ezekwesili, one of Obasanjo's stooges, called a Press Conference to persuade President Buhari to give assent to such rubbish. Presidential candidate my ass!
The obvious is that President Buhari will never sign that document. We will use the electoral act put together by a PDP-dominated National Assembly, and assented to by a PDP president of Nigeria. Any other position on this matter is absolute bunkum!
Saraki and Dogara can do whatever they like. Let them override the president and assent to the electoral bill. Let us see who would implement it.
This was what they went to Dubai to plan. But if you hold your own in your palm, do you know what I have in my pocket?
President Buhari and APC are always two steps ahead of them. Let the heaven fall. That manipulation cannot stand. It will not come to pass.
I rest my case!

PDP are bird of same feather when it comes to corruption matters

It is not an economic policy. It is not an act of government. It is normal process of institution building. No one sets up business with the sole purpose of preventing stealing. Have you ever heard an entrepreneur come up to reply when asked what his inspiration was in setting up enterprise, say "I set up Microsoft so that no one can steal my ideas". That is silly, stupid and crazy. Of course he will put measures and systems in place to prevent theft but it can never be his focus. We elect leaders to inspire us and to congregate ideas for the development of society. Yes, they should put measures in place to safe guard ideas and protect against loss but this is not the focus, that is the job of institutions.

What this government has done by usurping the functioning of institutions has made corruption even more difficult to fight as those who are corrupt have traded their freedom for support of the government making those whom they hitherto dined with but who refused to join up even more vocal and intransigent. And the battle for all intents is lost.

I said it then at the height of the currency crunch that Nigeria was going to lose a key opportunity to diversify the economy if it continued to subsidize the naira. Two years later with a subsidized naira we are poorer and more dependent than ever on oil. Guess what, the great political capital the government had then which it should have used to expend on solid but painful economic reforms it squandered away on chasing individuals (a job for institutions). Today the political capital is gone and it cannot make headway on diversification, on petro subsidy, on reducing the cost of government without a fear of losing power.

Is this not clear enough for you what an economic policy framework surrounds. I guarantee you, by 2023 this government will not have left a better Nigeria than it met if it does not wake up and begin to strategize. Let it leave its mandate and be busy chasing individuals around. We will see.

So why is it still hindering Nigeria till today. I thought it has been eradicated since 2015.... excuses for failure. A man sits in his house and tells his wife stories that they cannot afford three square meals because of the robbery that happened three years ago and until he can get back his all property he will not provide for the family.... pally divorce is loading...

The APC may get 2019 because of propaganda like yours but I can guarantee you that by 2023 the excuses will have worn thin and some serious questions will be asked by Nigerians. Stay at home and be complaining, don't go out and work as a government.

Anti corruption alone will not make Nigeria First World.

Peter obi is an anti corruption czar and an economic expert.
He has proven his capabilities in both.

You need a good fiscal and monetary policy and a holistic anti corruption fight to kill poverty.

You people know this truth, but politics will not let you admit it.
