Aside being a former 'military president', he has always been a very reserved, and private person. I watched him in an interview sometimes ago with Trust Tv at his residence in Minna, where he was asked a similar question.
He calmly responded, informing the interviewer, that this has always been his lifestyle even before and after his military career, that put him in such limelight in the past.

To answer your question directly, IBB has always been a very smart, intelligent and rather introverted individual, who talks less, comfortable being alone or with very few close friends, his four children and grand children. Before and after the death of his only wife, Maryam in December 2009, he has always been reserved.
Since August 1993, when he was just 52 years old, and handed over power to late Chief Ernest Shonekan, he has never intentionally put himself or his family in limelight within or outside Nigeria. So, unlike some other past leaders, that like to be always talked about, seen, and heard; IBB at age 83 years today - any supposed illness due to age, has nothing to do with his respected and reserved lifestyle.

See lamba raised to power ten abi na ignorance make we call this one.

Person that was humbled twice as PDP presidential candidate is someone you claim don't want to come to limelight.

Calabar set the Pace for carnival and now every dick and Harry wants to do it.

You no well, Lagos has been doing carnival before the creation of Nigeria. Small mind read your hitory

Igbo people are so intelligent, the don't vote incompetent people to power. Those elected APGA candidates are competent while all the rejected LP candidates are corrupt

Ofunaofu:
You lots claimed he is a first-class accountant who built Lagos State from scratch and would replicate the Lagos template all over Nigeria. We are seeing and feeling it already. So my opinion is immaterial.

Then you are not an opposition but a hater an attribute of many Obidients here.

Tinubu's performance or non performance is an opportunity for the opposition to win electorate to there side, but what we see is herd mentality of crude and vulgar language with empty brain from many Obidients on SM.

That's not a genuine way to support your candidate rather a remarketing and wrong approach.

Thank you you didn't abuse me tonight. Have a nice sleep

Ofunaofu:
The election is long over, and when the election is over, governance begins. Tinubu is president. We are suffering the effects of his calamitous economic policies.

Peter Obi is a private citizen going about his personal business. Leave him alone and face Tinubu.

Alright, make suggestions of what you think Tinubu should do.

I've criticised him for his failure to reform NNPCL and sack Kyari for failure to make refinery work despite his promised.

The wasteful spending of the executives should be curb and the President should live by example.

The dubious budget template that the figures are always increased with same items should be completely overhauled.

Let hear what area you feel the government should perform

Ofunaofu:
The president calamitous economic policies have brought untold hardships and pains on the citizens

Stop talking all these things personal. Have you have emcounter with Peter Obi before? Do you know him beyond media package.

Some things don't deserve dragging. If your Obi is not elected president should mean you should become a sad man.

I've never seen a positive comment from you before. It is sickening

Ofunaofu:
You can't compare a PhD holder with someone that was discovered to be a guinea pig student used to test run federal government college Las Vegas four years before it was founded only to emerge from nowhere claiming to have graduated with first class in accounting. A first-class accountant that is not a member of a professional accounting body both home and abroad 
The difference is like day and night.

Ofunafu, today is Sunday rest and stop hating on your president

You too like wahala

IfnobeGod20:
You guys are mistaken someone want to cease power and control the macenery of government to someone showing gratitude to another for helping him to attain a height. These are two different issues and you must first understand that, if not your judgement will be totally misfit.
Jonathan or his wife never exert authority to wanting to control Wike or Rivers structure. Jonathan's family helped Wike and they allowed him to have control of the state without interference. He was in control of everything and you will never see him taking no for an answer, he was everywhere and no one dare talk when he is talking, no one dare says he has an idea where Wike is sharing his. Videos abound of his vituperation against people, how he molested and ridiculed people, even the royal fathers. Even Tinubu that has such grip in Lagos has never descended low to have public show and altercation with his subjects. I have not seen him once but a man, Wike that want to be like him has shown in many instances Hitler's high-handedness in all variables.
I have heard SIM publicly saying he will ever respect Wike as he was part of those that helped him to be governor and he will always give him his dues. But do you know what, Wike isn't comfortable with that, he wants to play god in Rivers State, to be seen as the alpha and the omega of Rivers State.
Hence, your chosen word is in variance with what Wike wanted. He want things beyond gratitude but want to be omnipresent and omnipotent of Rivers State.
In all things Wike fight is for selfish end. You have completed your full 8 years and you helped someone you trusted to be governor. I think wisdom demands that he should have given full chance to exhibit his authority than been dictated to by him. To me and to many wise men and women in the world, that Wike's action makes no iota of sense.

Your point is very matured despite having different opinion. How I wish the Obidient touts can learn from you rather than the irritating curse and abuse they throw around

Lol, I have said it. That is why Yoruba is different. We will accommodate you, treat you well and make you prosper in our region, but we will forever take away your culture, we will colonised you to speak and think in Yoruba, you will have to a abadon shinasa for Adebayo, you will eat gbegiri and ewedu and dance owanmbe while you gleefully adopt our customs and tradition. But that is where it stops, the day you die in SW will be the end of you in SW as your dead will be taken back to your region that is turned to grave yard for you and your type who lived your lives in SW

Loveenthed:
There is nothing like DIGNITY & HONOR among the people from the Waste.

Their only dignity and honor lies in their stomach, deception and wickedness.

It's very paunful i'm from there but fortunately i have no single trait of their behavior and habits.

You just like abusing the SW when they return the abuse you will start crying.

Remember there's nothing you contest with them and not get defeated. Am sure it's the pain of the loss of election that makes you lose your senses to the point of calling yourself a bastard.

It's only a bastard that claim to be a Yoruba but do not have a Yoruba trait

Penguin2:
Good to see that you did not dispute the fact that Wike will fall.

Just like Nasrallah and the Iranian president that you lots were here cheering on and claiming they will destroy Israel 🇮🇱. You saw how they were killed like chickens.

That’s how Wike’s fall will be.

The hate in you people's heart can better be imagined.

Why will you want an individual to fail when the person have nothing to do with you?

Did Wike steals your money or your land to deserve this hatred from an intruder like you.

Simon Ekpa and IPOB who imposed sit at home and senseless killing of your brother doesn't attract the kind of hatred you dish to outsiders, this is sadist manifestation of quasi African jew

Remember, Biafra also fell. So shall anyone or any region that want to steal the land of the minorities in SS and any other parts of Nigeria

Penguin2:
After getting INEC to post his cousin to Edo State and rig the Election against Obaseki and his candidate, Wike’s shoulders must have expanded.

But Hitler fell.

Stalin fell.

Idi Amin fell.

Abacha fell.

Wike’s fall will be louder.

And I will be here to laugh at him and all those cheering him on today.

MNK fell and

Simon Ekpa will fall

almarthins:
Perhaps, you forget why they push Jonathan to reform the electoral process. If gek had kept thevoriginal template of electoral design, APC would never smell power. It would have been PDP all the way.

I don't trust APC one bit, in mu local govt in lagos selection happens on election day. Hypocrisy is when don't practise what you preach, that's what 80% Nigeria is today.

Tell me one state where opposition has won LG election before and after reform

Prince1759:
The guy just dey kneel down everywhere him go..him knees go soon peel. useless set of people.
Dem just keep the masses in captivity, yet some mumu dey hail dem."MENTAL SLAVERY"

The man have not even assume office and you are already tagging him useless. You guys hatred is inborn

Godjone:
Do you want EDO? I will give it to you.

The above statement was made by nebuchadnezzar tinubu to the APC. He has accomplished his goal of crippling elections in Nigeria and replacing it with selection. We have leave elections for them. We have leave INEC for them and we have leave political positions for them but they should be prepared for our wrath

You didn't write this thrash when Maurice Iwu was INEC chairman
Hypocrisy is dangerous in Ember month, na brotherly advice

Na those red caps sweet me most
Who God has chosen, let no one hate.

It would be painful seeing someone you hate for no reason achieving greatness while you remain stagnant.

I chose love instead of hate. Obidients, I love you so much

Wike, the ijaya of Biafra IPOB

anonimi:
Can you please explain how this lame question is relevant to the FACT that whiskey-drinking Wike has failed to improve water supply in the federal capital territory of our great nation?
Are you asking this because your own state has water flowing in every building of the cities and towns? Or your state's leaders in the HoA and the governors are grossly incompetent dullards in this basic utility for the 21st century?
Should it bother a sensible person that Wike's failure to employ workers for this common utility is depsite Tinubu giving him TSA exemption?

When are you going for deliverance from your mental slavery psychosis

This epistle just to escape from moral burden of admitting the incompetent leader from your state.

Wike is from Rivers im from Lagos
Mention your state and lets see if it's development is up to a local government in my state

CSTRR:
If obi decamps to pdp today, they would beg him to receive atleast a VP ticket.

That's who you are saying is begging?

A true rat you are. Political analysis of idiocy.

You are always falling hand with your comment. So shallow and always driven by emotion

Shawarmagirl:
You spend precious time you could have converted to money to think about Peter Obi who is a billionaire, employer of labours, owns companies, two term governor, former chairman of Fidelity Bank, former Custom boss, former vice president aspirant, and presidential aspirant 2023.

Indeed you need help urgently .

Look at the number of time you wasted responding to someone you said needed help

yarimo:
Lass lass OBI will settle for Senate

You wicked, I swear

President2040:
160? You mean Goodluck admistration
Have you thought about why he is the only CBN director to govern under 3 administration

I thought you are going to counter me with fact. Stop flirting on Nairaland

anonimi:
Slaves deserve their mental chains, no doubt.
How much has whiskey-drunkard Wike done to improve water supply in the Federal Capital Territory of the giant of Africa? Has he employed administrators, technicians, engineers etc for the water works

Do you have pipe borne water flowing in your state. Name your state if you are a man and let's see how competent your leaders are

Bmaster:
eight years indeed,if I talk naw una go say why this igbo boy talk,he deserves to chop ban.
But 600 years to the moderator that will thrive on tribalism and silencing of truth on a public forum.

Tinubu,then shettima abi ?
U take God for granted?
If you are to pray,pray for your today, because 2moro is not promised,it doesn't matter how much security details you move around with.
This statement is not for you,if you can't understand me it simply means you stand under me

People should equally learn from who MNK who felt invicinble and was abusing everyone and creating enemy for his people got caught and becomes a prisoner to the same man he wanted dead and all his investment burnt.

MNK and his admirer should learn to show love and not hate

President2040:
Facts speak louder than words.
Compare him to Cardi b.

He stabilize our currency at 650, he aided alot of agency/non-governmental organization, helped in the funding of muti-Trillion naira private company e.g Dangote refinery, BUA refinery, Innonce Vehicles, Dangote mills, Trader monies, Access bank equity, Fertilizer funding, just least to mention.

Bring Cardi B achievement aside banning P2P/ arrest of BDC, stopping Agricultural Aid and increase in VAT/ DEVALUATION of our currency.
Aside these, give me more of his achievement.

Am not here to compare but your point gives you up a novice or probably SM enthusiast.

Nigeria have never had any CBN as worst as Emefiele.

He pushed dollar from 160 to 750 while defending the naira. You can work out the percentage yourself.

He funded Dangote refinery as a venture capitalist or as investor? But why didn't he fund your own company?

I was expecting you to mention anchor borrowers fund that ended in private pockets resultimg in inflation and naira depreciation.

President2040:
I support his removal, Emeifele is one of the best brain we could ever have as a CBN Governor.
P-BAT, kindly bring Emeifele back!

Way and mean CBN governor, the one that fancies painting of notes more than banking work?
