Peter Obi Rejects VIP Treatment, Assists Stranded Nigerians At Abuja Airport (Photos, Video)
Former Anambra State governor and 2023 presidential aspirant on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, Peter Obi, came to the rescue of passengers who had been kept waiting for over 24 hours at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, IGBERETV reports.
On Monday morning, Peter Obi refused to board his flight at Abuja airport in order to assist stranded Nigerians.
Obi who has been traveling across the six geopolitical zones to consult stakeholders and party members over his presidential bid, was reportedly moved by the plight of the travelers.
IGBERETV gathered that Air peace, for unknown reason delayed Abuja-Benin flight for 24hrs, since, Sunday. On Monday morning, they reneged on the 7am rescheduled flight, for no reason. This led to argument as the situation got rowdy.
While the argument was going on, Peter Obi arrived at the airport enroute to Jalingo.
IGBERETV also gathered that Air Peace officials offered him a VIP treatment by attempting to pass him through a different boarding but Peter Obi declined, and went further to question why ordinary Nigerians like him were stranded at the Airport.
But Obi decided to stand amongst other travelers. He immediately made some calls and all the stranded passengers were boarded.
The over happy crowd erupted in chants of Obi! Obi! Obi! at the airport. Many snapped photos with him.

Toks2008: For me strongly dislike a woman who has an entitlement mentality, who believes she can use her body to make money or climb the social ladder and a woman with no serious drive to be financially independent.
This type of woman is a disaster to herself and to any man who is unfortunate to have her as a girlfriend or a wife.
The type of woman I pray for is one who is very industrious, submissive and sexually decent who will never sell her body for money.
So guys let us know the type of woman you want and the type you pray never to come across.
A woman that's willing to build something with me from scratch..
NurseMaryUSA: With so many scams going on how can an African American female find a serious African man to marry. It doesn't seem like many African men are interested in marrying us.
and 480k per week and ending up outside top4 is better abi?? u forgetting dt this same nited made UCL last season without cr7 n his goals... after d season, when cr7 leaves bcoz I dont see him playing conference league, this same bad united with bad players will start winning games n easily make top 4 again next season..
ThierryJay: Obembet you are simply an incorrigible hater.
Messi scored a goal of the season contender in that same match and cinched the league title for them, you did not see that to report separately, since you are the mods anointed one for FP. You are now bringing an irrelevant news for Messi to be criticized. Even the news is fake cos it was the entire PSG team including Mbappe that was booed.
How hard is it for you to just say congratulations? And you'd be yapping about how you also respect Messi and Ronaldo together. When Ronaldo lost his kid, even Messi fans set aside their personal sentiments to commiserate with him. I repeat, how hard is it for you to rise above immature sentiments and congratulate a league winner who lit up the game with a stunning goal?
Nairaland mods are your enablers. It's unfortunate that they are bringing their personal bias into sports reportage. They've turned a once impartial forum sportswise into an anti-Messi site to the extent that they could not even report on a top five league title win on FP.
I know it's the fact that Messi is widely considered the GOAT of football that is seriously paining them. Even at that, because the GOAT is in PSG, you decide not to report any positive news about PSG or Messi?, the fact that he has had 22 direct goal involvements in a supposedly poor season? That is simply incompetent reportage.
Googledman: Hi guys, just opened this account to stay anonymous.
I've been dating this girl for 5 months now, everything I've been smooth until just yesterday evening. I was chatting with her through WhatsApp, it was all fun until i used a sticker of this skit maker ''ogb cultist". In that sticker, he raised his hand like he wanted to slap someone and his signature slang "You wan collect??"..
The response i got almost got me mad... She said she has known that I will be abusive, I'm wicked and all manner of talk. Then she said its over... IT'S OVER BETWEEN US. I tot it was a joke, like how can i explain me trying to joke and then the joke is now on me. I told her, i never meant it, it was just a joke. Even the preceding conversations before i sent in the sticker was all fun nd jokes but she said she couldn't risk being with someone that sees slapping someone as a joke. Moreover, why should i joke with such sensitive matters that just recently a claimed life of someone she look up to.
Now, this is serious has she have blocked my lines and no form of communication since.
Pls what should i do... A friend of mine said she is just looking for a slight opportunity to dump me. Is it enough reason to call a sweet relationship off. Pls i need advise.
zeenaman: Away from the traditional recurring post of "how much was your first salary", let's go a bit unusual this time around. Most people are comfortable stating the low salary they received at the early stage of their career, I hope they will replicate same now. The big question : "How much is your current salary?" and in case you are self employed, how much was most recent salary? Let's go. Mine is 150k. Still managing and hoping for something better
Dominion791: I've been seeing this girl for the last few months, since early January of this year. Not an official relationship and we haven't really talked about what we are. Not sure exactly how to describe her so I'm just going to use her as a friend in benefit as the description.
There was some emotion in our relationship but it was mostly sexual. I've always been really, really good about using condoms and this is the first time I've ever been in this pregnancy situation.
I'm pretty unsure if I am the father. We had sex about twice a week for the last three months. So I have no clue who she saw or was with nor do I really care to be honest. There is more than a little doubt in my mind if I am the father.
For what its worth she insists I am the father but I don't know. She learned she was pregnant on March 22nd. She Told me on 24th. I immediately encouraged her to get an abortion I've offered to cover it all cost . She said she would think about. Its been almost 2 weeks and no abortion.
I spoke to her this morning and its becoming kind of clear that an abortion probably isn't happening. She is starting to get kind of tired of me pushing the abortion. I don't know what else to do. I'm starting to really get scared I am only 21 and I don't even have a job. I can't afford to raise a child right now and I certainly don't want a family right now. I'm thinking of telling her to reconsider the abortion or take care of the baby alone.
godofuck231: Just for once you have been in the shoes of a woman and you take disciplinary judgment against your wife so quick as pan, have you seen it from the angle that she could be pregnant, woman became terribly crazy when pregnant, or on her period, Or at least show your management skills in handling your home and cooking for one night , more a week , and get up in the morning and greet her good morning love and see how her conscience stirs , The samurai as fierce as they were were obliged as to some house chores as a relief of their everyday life as feudal lords and warlords, they were involved in literature , acting performance, tea ceremonies and crafts , Dont see this as an insult , move on and be at peace

Nothing mind blowing ere.. no AptX, no sbc or aac..
Very frustrating especially channel 137. They show all Rush Hour installments like every week, same with Blade, Men in Black and a few other old movies. It's annoying.
Franking: U are on the same bouquet as myself and a fellow Chelsea fan too. Compact is the bouquet. If u want to see all Chelsea games u need to upgrade to Compact plus which will set u back at over 12k a month. I refused to upgrade, make I dey manage the 7,900 monthly.
How you dey see repetition of programmes for the dish as a whole?
NOETHNICITY: I'm a staunch chelsea fan. I hardly miss a Chelsea match. About 5months ago I bought DStv and subscribed for the compack package for 7900 + other changes making it 8k. And I ve been doing this since Nov. However, to my disappointment I couldn't watch chelsea's champion league matches against lille. I also discovered that DStv compack package doesn't show other english teams games in the champions league. For instance the compack package didn't show Man City vs Sporting, didn't show Man U vs Atl Madrid and also didn't show liverpool match as well. Immediately I realized it makes no sense to me staying in that package. So I downgraded to DStv yanga.
I bought DStv because I was told that with the compack package I would be able to watch all Chelsea games. But I kind of feel disappointed that after paying 8k I've to still visit the viewing center to watch my match. Besides I hardly ever have time for TV except when it's match time
Besides I ended up discovering a nice viewing center in area with a very big screen and mature audience. So good for me
Just wondering if there are others too who feel they aren't getting value for money
I stopped subscribing for dstv since February. My reason is because of their incessant repetition of movies and other programmes (outside sports).
7900 go buy me data + Netflix sub and it will last me 1 month
