Peter Obi is really playing his cards well

One thing he is doing right is not being an election politician,like Atiku appears.
Atiku only becomes active during electioneering season.Obi is building bridges across Nigeria and being active.
He maynot win those Northern states,but come election time he would do better than he did last year because more people now know him,more people now appreciate him and starting to believe he has genuine interest in a better Nigeria.
Political calculation wise,Obi too is doing the right things:he knows the North was his hercules heel and is trying to make inroads there.

How could Palmcredit withdraw money from your account if you didn't give them access in the first place.
Sometimes you people imagine you are talking to kids or what.
Open up with the full story.
No organisation can have access to your account to be withdrawing funds without being granted access.
If it occurs without your authorisation,which u have to prove,then it becomes fraud and you should report the bank to CBN for allowing such criminal withdrawal,though you have to prove it

Your state of mind has been messed up.
You have a mental health,rather than a physical disease based on your description of the symptoms you are having and the absence of any issue from the series of tests you said you have done.
Seek a psychologist,that's the mental health professional that can help you

Agadinaagwuofe:


It was Nasarawa not Benue, they went to arrest Omambatse herbalist Baba Alakyio of Eggon.

Yeah,indeed it was Nassarawa.Thanks for the correction.
Googled it now and now read a whopping 65 security officers were confirmed murdered!
55 police and 10 DSS officers,yet there was a painstaking hunt for the killers.Eventhough everyone knows the villagers would have deserted the village,but the security agents didn't go on burning down the entire village and killing innocent civilians because they knew the culprits and went after them,including the original herbalist they came for.

Abdulg2019:

This place no look like forest

Bush don become forest.
How are then able to charge their phones to take pictures,have data to log online and post?
What the army and FG are doing is wrong,but nobody should try to play smart here by using some cleverly staged scenes to manipulate views

bolaayenimo:
Arsenal 3 Brighton 1

You don't even know who is at home.
Hope you don't end up crying.
Arsenal on paper would beat Brighton,but there is something about this feature (Brighton unbeaten at home,and coming at that time of the season when Arsenal start losing their nerves),that should give every Gunner fan cause for concern.
With Man City in thier usual late surge,if Arsenal don't navigate this tricky feature,it's over for them again this year.
This match could end in a bitter draw for Arsenal

Well scripted game.
Goverment increases it by a stupendous 300%,watches and expects reaction from labour or affected entities,calls labour for negotiation,money changes hands,both sides then accept a new tariff of around 150-180 instead of 225 for band A.
The goverment now also says and labour too agrees that smaller percentage increases across all bands would take place.
Labour accepts,Nigerians across all bands wake up to new prices across board,ranging from 25% to 100% and everyone carries on as businesss as usual.
Meanwhile labour claims victory,while their executives have their bank accounts boosted and goverment gets what it originally intended even before the deceptive band A only exorbitant increase

Miles300:
Does iran think an attack on isreal will go unanswered?

Men have been known to do more foolish things down the years.
See Iran that Israel has been waiting down the years to destroy it's nuclear program so that they don't reach the stage of having enriched uranium to build a nuclear bomb,now wanting to give Israel the legitimate excuse it needs.
Iran is so foolish it hasn't asked itself why the likes of Saudi Arabia,Jordan, Egypt, Algeria and Syria have not bothered to enter the conflict.
Everyone knows Isreal has gone overboard with its handling of the retaliation against Hamas in Gaza,but there would be a quick reversal of support back to Israel if Iran enters the conflict.
Yes,Israel needs US military support but people like Iran seem to forget that Israel is quite capable on its own to not only defend,but attack any Arab nation that threatens its existence.

Lives of civilians of Okuama,both the ones killed and those still alive but not living don't seem to matter.
Behind the outcry over the deaths of the soldiers,no one seem to be asking why the goverment has not instituted a committee to actually investigate the real cause and truth of the whole sordid affair.
Yes,the killers should be brought to justice,but at least have the true picture of the circumstances that led to the situation everyone now find themselves.
I remember during the time of GEJ,several DSS officers were ambushed as they were on their way to apprehend a famed herbalist in one community in Benue State.
The whole village wasn't sacked by the DSS and after several months I think,the man was eventually arrested or even killed along with those that did those DSS killings either killed or arrested.

blowjohn:



So he used 75 million dollars frm the 100 he has to buy jet!!!

U need to go back to school ( secondary school o)

Do u know that net worth also includes assets?


Even his father cannot buy jet of 75 m dollars without feeling a huuuuuge impact

You are replying someone,the type of who believe a woman can change to a bird as a witch at night to torment her enemies and that one pastor in Nigeria can by mere casting and touching in a church premises make the paralyzed to walk or even raise the dead.
If people like this can believe that,there is no big deal believing Davido has a spare $75m to buy a private jet

Fools.
They won't hold a protest against suffering in the land and even the butchering of their fellow Muslims Northern brothers for years,but anything involving Israeli battle with the Arabs,you see them trooping out and causing nuisance.
Everyone knows the Israelis have gone overboard with their response,but why has no Arab country or Muslim also call out Hamas fo it's unprovoked and unprecedented murder of several Israeli and foreign citizens?
They should enlist in Hamas and go and fight Israel if they feel so pissed about the whole situation.

The man is a born clown.
So with all the security does he wants any sensible person to think it's an assassination attempt?
This one wants to curry sympathy.
See the clown Obi is associating with.
What makes this man different from the likes of Ghanduje or secondus?Nothing,just the party name

caye:


You know that the story you wrote is a lie.

When was electricity 24hrs in Lagos or the southwest, and ppl were complaining about the bills?

Are you aware that many parts of Ondo state haven't had connection to electricity grid for over 15yrs?

I am talking A,you are talking B.

socialmediaman:
The Tinubu government has just increased electricity cost for band A customers to N225 per KPH.

For context, customers in the US pay about the same cost per KPH (or cheaper) depending on the state you live in.

Energy analysts are explaining that Nigerians are willing to pay more if they have access to electricity.

Based on data from NerdWallet, the average monthly electricity cost in the US is about $137 which is about N178,000.

Are you willing to pay N178,000 monthly for electricity for a 24-hour supply?

Years ago when this epileptic power supply became an the norm,on the radio stations,many Nigerians were calling saying "Nigerians would pay,let them just give us constant power,nothing is moving in Nigeria because there is no regular power,Nigerians will pay".I was just laughing,in my mind these are clowns.
Just a few years or months later power improved,then tariffs went up.The same calibre of people started lamenting,"the bill is too much".
I then became angry because I knew that anyone saying Nigerians would pay any amount for regular power is either a child or mentally challenged.
Tariff should be affordable.
The most capitalist Nation in the world,the US,even there minimum wage earners can afford to pay tariff,even if it's 24,they just have to regulate their use when they are out.
Here even the fabled middle class would soon find it difficult to pay for power.
Imagine spending almost 200k a month just for electricity.Is that not madness!

Son to secure the throne against any coup d'etat.
Daughter to ensure any looting is not questioned.
Wife to miseducate the citizenry,compulsory citizenship education at all levels where it will be taught that questioning the president or goverment is Haram.

You typed a salient but true fact o!

Good.
Let prices of things come down and the ₦ appreciates further,at least even if to the ₦650 BAT met it.
The way people on all sides of the Nigerian divide lie with full chest, particularly on nairaland,is astounding.
When this news first broke yesterday of start of sale,one guy posted with all confidence and anger yesterday,that his younger sister works in the refinery and she told him that the refinery is still at the testing of departments or is it even machinery stage.
Nigerians and lies are inseparable,yet Fridays they troop to the mosque,Sunday to the church.

michlins:
small marketers and depot owners buy more than 10ml litres sef. Not to mention major marketers

I don't think you have an idea of what you just typed

Yourprick:
Ok so how much is he now selling?

That is the baffling question.
The way no one wants to disclose the price is significant

Strange because by all standards,this is someone that was very comfortable.
Could be pressure from issues in his private life

KillahPriest:
keep your sorry to yourself oga, you're an evil person and this trait of blaming the victims has become regular amongst you evil people. I hope you also blamed one of those primary school students of setting their mates up for kidnap in the north ? Ashiere detective

And you are a dunce trying very hard to appear righteous.
You are the typical Nigerian hypocrite,using the classical Nigerian template of playing the ostrich to deflect from the issue.
Several students,not pupils,have been kidnapped and you are here failing comically to look like you are the most concerned

Sorry to sound like this in these troubling times for the parents,but I am suspecting that one amongst those students or someone close to those students they informed about their itinerary maybe the informant.
How else can it be explained that the bandits got to know when these students would be returning back and where to wait without fear of confrontation by security agents?
There definitely was some foreknowledge and planning involved to abduct that number of students.
Kidnapping is now a business venture,so many people,even those close to you that one may feel can't harm one or go to that extent may be involved,even if not directly.

JoeyNaza:


exactly, South Korea is still exporting Samsung and other electronics to us with their "bad" currency yet if this government had their way, they will lose 50 million dollars a month to bring the rate to 700 Naira so that agbado people will be celebrating meanwhile factories are closing down, food crisis is till an issue, no jobs, insecurity yakpa. Who are we fooling.

You are an illiterate.
Factories are closing down because the cost of production is very high.
What is the cause of this very high production cost?The dollar because with naira depreciating massively the cost of inputs,even the ones sourced locally have gone through the roof.
Electricity companies,logistics companies all have increased prices due to the dollar issue because those other items or services they use are indirectly affected by dollar cost.
Even the local farmer in Nigeria has to increase prices because when he/she goes to the market cost of other stuff have increased.
Illiterates with illusions of being smart.

So in other words,the goverment should fold it's hands and let speculators determine the exchange rate?
Everyone is shouting production.
When GEJ some ill informed are now routing as a better manager(I actually believe he is far better with a better team than Tinubu) had ₦ at 200-300,was there priduction.
No country,even the US with it's 100% capitalist economy allows their country to be determined by speculators.
If for example Elon Musk with his war chest of at least $100b in cash decides to go on a buying spree of the $ in order to hold and hoard it or even to allow other speculators to have a free reign,the US treasury,secret service,FBI will go after him because his speculator activities is distorting the market

Donkogbe:
one advice I will give anyone is never to rent a room face me I slap you house. it more like digging your grave and mental health.

What if you don't have money to rent a flat,even a shared one,so the person should go and be living under the bridge?
You all say some of these things like it's easy for some people in Nigeria to rent houses of their choice

Cost of maintenance shouldn't even come into the question.
Having that number of presidential jets in a country where the minimum wage is $20/month does not only not make any sense,but is comical to say the least.
Infact,assuming Nigeria was a very serious country,we would know that our economy and present state of affairs demands that the Nigeria only fly commercial airlines Economy class with as few aides as is possible.

Usefulsense:


I sent my wife here in December 2021.
The original plan was for the family to move together but on a second thought I said no.

She worked really hard and I supported her the much I can from Nigeria.

It was much easier for me because I had my partner here already.

Ok.
Makes more sense.
You didn't state all these in your first post,not until posters started digging some holes and doubting some aspects of the story.
The way you initially made it sound,you entered Australia late Dec and in 3 months you already had shelter,had time to take several artisan courses,your kids already in school,then aside from working,you already saving.
It's always important to lay out the whole picture,so that aside from not creating doubts in some people as to the authenticity of a story,it would not also make some other people with intent of travelling to feel it was the straightforward,almost magical way you made it sound

Treadway:
yea, no beggars or destitutes in your side of Aussie. They all wear rolexes and drive Porsches. Grown up dudes such as you and Op saying authoritatively say beggars no dey one country...he even saying that haven been there just about 3months. Na wa!

Enjoy....Nofin do you

The three months is the shocking part.
If he is correct and truthful,then he had well laid out plans and is lucky.
I am just imagining someone going to a new country and already started doing well at 3months.Shelter,kids already in school,fees settled,got a job already and saving.
Thats quite an enormous achievement

thesicilian:
May just be an "innocent" poisonous insect that bit him, not everything is spiritual.

Assuming the ant story is even true in the first place,which I seriously doubt.
Don't be amazed to later read no ant bit him,that he died from complications of a long running ailment he couldn't afford to treat in the states or that was being treated in the US,but was adviced to come down to Nigeria, that it's a spiritual matter,only to die because he stopped taking his prescribed drugs when he came to Nigeria.

Of course.
It's only a foo l that would believe what the mother said about the dad telling primeboy or prime guy to run away.
I have this belief that the autopsy report would be a hard pill to swallow for the parents and all those his supporters that have been throwing up different personalities as being the cause of his death.
That is why I believe the toxicology was ordered done abroad,at least we believe the Whiteman die and no one would accuse an oyibo lab of doctoring or tainting the result to suit certain interests.

tonygalaxy:
It also happened to me personally.. my wife was admitted on emergency ward.. A and E ward for an Emergency C-S . We got admitted. I was asked to 1st go to blood bank to donate 2 pints of blood.. it was hectic 😳 getting a donor.. I cried for help and one guy promised to help me get a donor. At 20k per pint.. After donating and getting an acknowledgement receipt.. when the time reached for me get the blood I donated from LUTH. LASUTH BLOOD BANK. IT WAS SERIES OF ONE FIGHT TO ANOTHER..
Lastly thank to God Almighty my wife came out from LUTH alive.. it was a very bad experience and[b] we lost the twins[/b].. to cut everything short...... [color=#990000][/color]
I have even some videos of the recorded arguments I have with them ..

Lost the twins eventually?
So painful after all the efforts.
Did they come out alive at all or they died some time after birth in the neonatal intensive care unit?

Nauseating pieces of shi t.
When PMB surrounded himself with Northerners and openly avowed that he won't even consider giving any major appointment to the 5 percenters,did any other region aside the SE raise any eyebrow?
Now because Tinubu is following the same parochial template,imps that kept quiet and even applauded PMB are disturbing our peace.
Who amongst the clannish northern appointees PMB made,were competent?They should name one single competent northerner he appointed,right down to the senate President whose nomination he championed.
That is one of the main reasons I didn't even want Atiku to succeed PMB.
Despite any pretences to being a nationalist,once Atiku gets into office he would have largely consolidated the Northern grip on the government,ministries and parastatals.
Tinubu should fire on
