And the stats this morning said two million plus are online, now let me ask you,

"How do you reach out to those people offline?"

Those in the bush, in the rural communities?

A school of thought even said many of those "keyboard warriors" don't even have voters cards, they rather hide behind their keyboard during election time.
Welcome to Nigeria, fascinating country!!!

Lalasticlalabos:


That is the behaviour of a normal ibo person. It's in their blood and if you see an ibo person behaving contrary to what that guy just displayed then believe you me that person is an outlier

and

All this sophisticated morronns that come on here to use Igbo to shine.. Yoruba Muslims dat caNnot sight ordinary moom..

raker300:
Peter obi tarred 7000km of roads during his tenure as a state governor!

No governor could beat that.

Peter obi spearheaded the largest indigenous industrial boom in Nigeria! (Orange drugs, sabmiller, juhel, orient petroleum, innoson etc)

No one could beat that that!

Peter obi left without a single debt to his state!

No one could beat that!!

Shame on you and your likes trying to tarnish a hardworking man over selfish reasons!

Peter obi is not your class and you don’t deserve him. You all will keep wallowing in your foolish

Use Google, the distance between Lagos and London is 7,025 KM. So, Peter Obi tarred between Lagos and London. That's ggod.

Jesus Christ is merciful.

LOL. You don't know stats is a complex course over there right? Or perhaps you're arguing with an igbo for the very first time.

Sammy07:


Oga, how many kilometers is Anambra itself??
It's not up to 5,000km

BTW give us link, don't just throw figures around.

Counter OP posts.
He listed criteria to chose and some governors were listed too.

His point Is Peter obi didn't perform better than those governors, if no, prove it

If the size of a State is 5,000 km² , and you have three 2km roads running in parallel, and another three 3km road running across, how many kilometer roads do you have in total? Use the attached as visual guide.

Lalasticlalabos:


He called it a debate and you should come out with your fact to counter him. Why are are cursing, ranting and behaving like a delusional being. You people can't make your point without insulting or sounding insecure.
Once I saw the thread,I am very sure of your kind of comment because that is what your tribe is known for.

You can never have an healthy discussion or debate with an ibo person. It always end with them insulting, cursing and acting violently. Feeling very insecure and believing you are in competition with them.

I noticed this English mistake is very common among the average Yorubas - especially
Yorubas of Oyo and Osun descent.

Madam, it's a healthy, a house, a home, a horn, a hungry man, a harmless animal etc.
In each of these cases the consonant sound 'h' is loud enough.

But we have, an honour, an honest, an hour.
Here, the 'h' is silent and pronounced as a vowel sound 'o'
.

1 billion times over Chime's work is the glory Enugu is still standing on. What are the legacy of Obi in Anambra today ? Did I hear you say nothing, not one thing of any significance.

Peter obi's legacy as been completely blown away by Obiano.

ejanla077:


Sullivan over Peter Obi..

U dont ve sense

Obi China


If he likes he can pave the streets of Onitsha with gold. He cannot be president, he is Ibo.

Take that to the bank.

Only a slave takes foolish pride in another's language.
Why should a Yoruba man be proud of English
Do the English speak Yoruba

The Ebola language is almost extinct and your people already speak yoruba with pride and relish
You talk of average. I laugh , travel to England the average English person writes even worse

The simple truth is you have a completely colonized mind.worshipping foreign gods,abandoning your own culture and claiming to be Jews.

If you go to any International university outside Nigeria run in English it is full of Chinese with worse English than average Nigerians and some even permit them to use Chinese English dictionaries.

Here you are an expert on the English solecisms of the Average Yoruba.
Are you not foolish?

Useless thread because when facts n figures are presented Peter Obi will be blown of the radar of the competition. Why then are some fools wailing that he is beta than those he is not fit to lace their shoes ?

Ewedu muslim, where are your 'facts and figures'?

@ op, how dare you compare Peter obi with enugu former governor, that is am insult to obi's achievement.
Am out of here because is obvious you are not serious

IlovePMB:
What is Lagos and Akwa Ibom states' monthly alocation compared to Anambra. Peter obi did much with Anambra little alocation while Akwa Ibom and Lagos are very rich states but the rate of development there is good but not commensurate to the huge funds they generate and are allocated to them by the Federal government. If the governors of Lagos and Akwa Ibom utilize their money like Peter Obi did with that of Anambra, Lagos and Akwa Ibom would be like Dubai.

Mind you, before Peter Obi came to Anambra, Anambra was in a mess just like Imo State is today after Rochas government.

Mbadinuju owned workers for more that a year. No infrastructures, no roads, nothing to write home about. Peter Obi restored live in Anambra in a short time. While Fashola and Akpabio did not meet such mess in their States.

I am not mentioning Chime of Enugu and Amechi of Rivers because they don't have anything to be compared with Peter Obi.

u can lie to yourself and not to any sensible political observer at least since 1999. Do you know the extend Ngige went in road construction despite the gun on his head by the Ubas? Tell us what are the achievements of Obi beyond the democratization of poverty(apologies to prof Soludo) and forging of statistics in his 8 years as governor of Anambra viz a viz the resources at his disposal? Presently Obiano has the best security record ,even by international standard, in the country ; , we can mention Amaechi's behemoth strides; Fashola's contributions, or Akpabio's efforts just to mention a few names - all whose records are in the public domain. So please tell us Obi's stellar records that would place him in good steads for our votes in 2023? Can you even compare him with Rochas despite Rocha's shortcomings? abeg , no be only Obi.

You are not from South east. When you mentioned Rochas that was when I stopped reading your comment. No governor in Nigeria is worst than Rochas. I am from Imo and schooled in Awka when Ngige came in as governor before he was replaced with Peter Obi.

I can agree with you on Fashola, Akpabio and Ngige. But my argument is that, Akwa Ibom, Lagos, Rivers government have a lot of money. Anambra government does not have such money but what Ngige and Peter Obi did with the little Anambra funds were commendable. If Akpabio, Fashola and Amechi used their states resources as Peter Obi did, Lagos, Akwa Ibom and Rivers would have been like Dubai.

You can't compare someone that receives 1 million naira as salary to someone that receives 100k.
If someone that receives 100k have a savings of 500k at the end of the year even after purchasing a small car for transport biz and the other one who receives 1 million have a venza and built a mansion in the town but owing the bank a sum of 50 million naira. Who achieved better?

Fashola plunged Lagos in debt. Lagos debt profile is more than a trillion naira. Peter Obi transformed Anambra and yet saved a lot of money for the state.

when it comes to national politics please forget sentiments and don't use " you are not from a place" rhetorics for it colors you as prejudiced person. I don't like talking in vacuum, I quickly nipped una fraudulent " obi did 7000km roads" lie by letting it be known that he merely continued Ngige's project ,which is commendable. Tell me about how he created jobs, treated workers n pensioners, diversification of Anambra's economy; his approach to the local government idea; infrastructural development; rural electrification; security, health , his IGR drive like Tinubu did which everyone is copying including the FG, Transportation like Aregbe n Amaechi's railway ideas etc that would make us vote for him in 2023.

Of what use is money kept in the bank ,in the name of not being indebt, while your people are battling with hunger and poverty ?

It is obvious you know nothing about Imo especially when Ohakim ,with all his noise, governed IMO and when Rocha's took over. With the resources at his disposal and what he did with it ,a dead Rocha's is better than Peter Obi. Presently I don't like Rocha's after his selfish bid to turn IMO to a family estate but that is not enough to deny his achievement to accord Obi an underserved award. We have been around long before 1999, so tell us Obi's achievements that would warrant a promotion to national prominence in 2023. We are waiting.

princdebola201:
7000km of road , lienus how many kilometers is anambra sef It is easy to throw figures but give us a reliable links to verify your claims .
Like the op said , those 5 governors have been the most outstanding ever since 1999.

Also give us a reliable link to verify your mental status.

Macphenson:



Ok let me answer you a bit.

In terms of housing, go and check, Peter Obi developed Ngozika housing estate, to curb the housing challenges of Anabra people. Though of a truth housing is not much of a challenge in Anambra because individuals and private sector are taking care of that, as it is evident in the four and five storey structures littered in the state.

Job creation:

Here he did excellently well, both in public service and private sector. Peter Obis government facilitated and aided the industrial industrial revolution found today in Anambra. He provided enabling environment for the private sector industrialists and made Anambra a safe haven for investments and industries promoting the springing up of industries like INNOSON Motor Manufacturing company to spring up, to mention but a few.

In public sector, go and check, Anambra is the only state that was increasing salary when other states where looking for bail out funds, all thanks to Peter Obi's tenacious management of the state treasury. Anambra till date is constantly employing people into the civil service, even during recession.


INFRASTRUCTURAL DEVELOPMENT:

The roads he did speaks for him. go and check , Interconnecting community roads in Anambra now is excellent, you can move from one community to Another , or from one village to Another in Anambra without making use of the major express roads. Driving became fun in Anambra. On this, trust me I give him a 101%.

Please ask anybody in Anambra to confirm this.

On Education, wow. Woow.

He did a thing that caught my attention. Peter Obi invested heavily in ICT in state schools. It's a known fact students were shared IPADS in government schools.

Not just that, Peter Obi started the teaching of some advanced programming languages for students in secondary school, today most of those guys are doing fine because of those skills they learnt.

Let's not forget, Anambra state has been making waves in all fronts locally and globally regarding educational competitions and exams.

In WAEC for the past seven years they have been at the first five states, most times being at the top. We also saw how students from Anambra were winning global competitions , we also saw the best teacher award in a global competitions coming from Anambra, all thanks to the solid foundations and good works laid by Peter Obi.

Time will not permit me to go on, but trust me, Peter Obi's leadershio qualities is of a different class

Worthy to Note, those states mentioned, their revenue generation and Federal allocations, most of them are far far Higher than Anambra, Like Lagos, Akwa Ibom and Rivers State.

Knowing the answer and articulating it are two different things. You did a good job. But will they hear? Tomorrow now, another onuku will create another thread asking same silly question.
We really need a link to verify some people's mental health before replying their posts here.

That is why I said you are not from South East. That is why you are mentioning Rochas when we are discussing about successful governors. Ohakim was better than Rochas. Rochas should not be mentioned when governorship is concerned. Don't depend on Rochas propaganda. Ask any body you know from Imo State about Rochas please.

As for Fashola and Lagos State government, Lagos is owing over one trillion naira and still look much like the old Lagos I know. I did my IT in Lagos during the time of Tinubu. At least I knew how Lagos was that time. I went to Lagos last during the second tenure of Fashola. I saw no difference. I thought I would miss road because of all the overhyping about Fashola. The only thing I liked and noticed in the new Lagos then was the reduction or disappearance of those agbero boys.

He was stoned in the streets of Onitsha by traders in 2017. He isn't popular at all.

Macphenson:



Am not throwing figures around, I still have my road designs with me, I have the pictures of the roads I did, so am not just talking, if we can see one on one, I will show them to you, if not that this is a public forum and you never can tell who is on the forum, I will bring out those documents.

Peter Obi really did excellently well especially in terms of road construction, I say this because I was at the front line..

There are some roads I did in very remote communities that I marvelled. For him to even have such designs and quality of roads in remote communities made me to respect him more.


I also know of the measures he put in place to check contractors. We the engineers on site were made to submit our certificates to ministry of works Awka, so that you will be held responsible if you do a poor job, not just your company.

Also go and check, when contractors bring in their BOQ , go and check the drama they do with Peter Obi, he will in your presence be calling the market to know the exact price of the things you quoted.


He is a manager par excellence, he is a wonderful financial manager, I can categorically state because I was deeply involved. He does not entertain any form of extravagance or unnecessary waste.

Often times while I was doing some projects in Anambra, he will drive in to the site unannounced to check what you are doing. That made everybody to always be at his toe because you never can tell when the governor will visit your site.


Trust me any Nation that has him as a leader is blessed.

how many KM is anambra state? You don't know what you are saying boy.

I am not biased here. We campaigned and voted in Rochas and chased Ohakim away because he was blackmailed to have beaten a Catholic priest. This was later confirmed to be false but by then Rochas has already become governor.

We thought Rochas was a good man but he was quick to show his true colors. All you know about Rochas must be a propaganda. He tried in his first tenure but unfortunately none of his road works still stand today as all were damaged before he left. What type of projects are that.

He stopped paying pensioners while paying all state workers 70 percent of their normal salaries. Which governor in Nigeria has ever done that.

He said he gave free education yet most parents even those that are poor withdrew their children from state primary and secondary schools to private schools because of poor education standards.

I don't like discussing about Rochas because I have not seen someone that is evil like that. But you can still believe whatever you want to about him.


As for Lagos, do some research on Lagos debt profile. You can check below.

you are biased because Rocha's na onye Hausa according to some of you. Some of you even said " onyeshi o gadi ikiri"" in his first term but we beat you all to reelect him until you people use una witch to turn his head to misbehave in that " my son in law must take over from " madness .

It is unfortunate that oil price crash after the GEJ's dismal years affected monthly allocation to states and Rochas was one of the few governors that pay above 50 percent of the previous salary structure . No governor since the creation of Imo reached Rochas.

That Lagos is in debt (loans) to bring in development is a standard practice anywhere in the world . Has such loans contributed to the development of Lagos? Yes. So talk another thing.

If Rochas did well, I and many Imo people would have supported his son in law. We don't hate Uche Nwosu but Imo people were afraid that if Uche Nwosu becomes governor, the suffering in Imo State will continue. When Ihedioha won, he started paying pensioners again and restored workers salaries back to 100 percent yet Imo was not broke. We hate Hope Uzodimma but no matter how bad he can be, he can never be as bad as Rochas.

Fashola and all Lagos State governors can still do better than they did without borrowing.
Borrowing money to do projects is not development. Those borrowed money would be paid with interest. And any Lagos governor that focuses on repaying those funds would be seen as a governor that is not doing any project. So which governor would sacrifice to pay those debts. It can only keep increasing. That is complete failure in governance.
