Mention any State in Nigeria that doesn't pay ex governors pension. Apart from Obi, mention any other ex governor who rejects the pension. Even those governors who didn't sign the bill receive the benefits approved in the bill.

The more you look stupid trying to insulate Peter Obi. He was a sitting Governor who signed the bill into law. Pension benefits became legal and legitimate as signed by Peter Obi, whether he " chooses" to collect his benefits or not is immaterial. If he didn't want it, he would have refused his assent, he was a second term Governor and almost all the members of the house were already decamped to APGA, so there was nothing to fear. In the history of the country, it was only Obi that had the state's funds domiciled in his Fidelity Bank, thereby boosting the net worth of the bank with state's funds, he also invested state's funds into his family business, thereby ripping off dividends into his private pocket as a shareholder. Not forgetting him diverting 250 million monthly from Anambra to his Lagos office until he was caught in Lagos. Obi stole, raped, and robbed Anambra while giving them a greek gift. He took NEXT Mall which could have offered employment to Anambra youths to Rivers State. If there's any greatest fraud in the history of mankind, it is Peter Obi.
You guys just allow nickyvil to just use your head as an enlightened fellow. There was no where in the link that mention that Peter Obi signed or assented to the bill passed by the House Assembly.
There was even an uproar when the House Assembly passed the bill and the erudite governor then, Mr. Peter Obi yielded to the voice of reasoning and never sign the bill passed.
nickyvil only confused bill passed to bill assented to or signed.
A bill can be passed and not signed and that abounds.
You guys should try reading through the link before jumping to take them hook line and sinker. No single news that says Peter Obi assented to the exgovernors and their deputies pension bill. No single one.
During Peter Obi there was no such law.

You're are frigging BATstard and a criminal. Where in the report did they say Obi passed or assented to the bill. I am sure you don't know what a bill of a house of assembly is. A bill can be sponsored by anyone. The bottom line should be did Obi consent to it and of course you know the answer which is NO. You f**cking piece of shit! spreading propaganda.

He said he has not collected a kobo since he left as Governor, that shows he is a man of principle and proved so by his actions, no matter what he signed into law or not.

Fidelity bank is where he put Anambra state money. He could have easily put it in a Swiss account and you would not be talking about the money today as you wouldn't even know it had been stolen. But Anambra State knows where the money is because Obi said so.

He did not invest any money in his family business, SABmiller is a German owned brewery and not Obi's family business

I’ve never seen such deluded sets of craps.
You want us to believe your Aspirant without manifesto ? You want us to trust everything he has inside his thoughts ? What kind of government that shields himself from criticism ?

If Obi wins Nigeria will turn upside down those people who claims everywhere is no mans land will eventually actualize their dream because their grand patron is there. They’ll claim all lands or dictate to the land owners.Obi will be Nepotism 2.0 for sure his campaign list says it all .
The most annoying thing about obidents is that they still insult you if you burst their principal‘s lies that alone made me loose my support for them it shows they ain’t sincere either They just want power at all cost .

As if there was ever a time you supported the Obi bid! It’s obvious you’re one of the insecure Tinubu minions feeding fat off Lagos resources and scared a Igbo being president will ‘democratise’ things in Lagos so other Nigerians that have contributed to Lagos being what it is have a say in how it’s governed! How is that a bad thing if not for the fact you, Tinubu and your other greedy ilk see Lagos as your birthright and inheritance and every other ethnicity should hands off! You deserve any insults coming your way because you’re a selfish, greedy bigot! As we speak, the Fulani you helped to power are busy claiming large swathes of land all over the north and leaving bloodshed, misery and death in their wake, yet that doesn’t register with you….all you’re concerned about is you keeping Lagos for yourself and ensuring the ‘okoros’ don’t have a say in its governance besides the little token gestures you deign to throw down for them…like SA in charge of cleaning Lagos gutters! shocked

A lot of bigots are terrified of a Obi presidency because they feel a lot of the unfair and criminal advantages they have unlawfully appropriated for themselves over the years, using the uneven status-quo and political-economy they have nurtured since the late 60s, would be dismantled for a fair and equitable one! The main opposition to a Igbo being president is coming from the Fulani and Tinubus’ lot in the south-west. That should tell keen observers a lot! Nigeria is where it is today primarily because of the status-quo and political-economy in place since the late 60s to date, and the aforementioned groups are invested in seeing it continues! Forget what they mouth off during campaigns….Buhari said just as much, yet see where we are today!

"I'm not supporter of any but I'm only saying all of them are the same"

Since you had enough time to research which is commendable of you, why then place a half story of your research results? How can you claim they are all thesame when you fully know Obi is the only one out of all the governors that till today never collected any pension, staff, vehicles, land, salary, medical etc as entitlement from his state? Is it that you are not aware of this fact or you choose to be mischievous, to deceive the folks on this forum?
Why will you chose to do this for goodness sake?
Anyway, we are in this country together, we spoke about buhari then, folks did not agree, see where the country is now. Anyone that enters 2023 good or bad, some of us ie the righteous will survive well.
why did he sign the bill?

The law is there, if not Peter Obi won't be saying he rejected it in 2022 and in 2019 , he is yet to receive it for 7years.


The question is, you said he signed it, where as he ever said he signed it when the law was passed. People revolted against it then and he never signed it.
You're also changing his words, he said, he never collected penny since he left office and there was no single land allocated to him or his family, and if anyone is traceable to him or his family, he is ready to let go his presidential ambition.
He also said, if any can trace to him that he stole any penny from Anambra government purse, the person should come out and he will let go his presidential ambition. This he has been saying consistently but no single person has come out but instead you people bring out frivolities to smear him.
He has thrown challenge for months now but no single has found him wanting.
Even the last town hall meeting he attended, he still said, those he handed the money he saved to in 3 banks has not come out to say he didn't hand over those saved money to them, that he his expecting at least one of them to say he is lying but till date nobody comes out.
These challenges thrown but no single response till date but only frivolities.

Obi never said Anambra past governors do not receive pension. What Obi said is he rejects all the things the state government gives outgoing governors. Things like pension, house and land. Obi is the only ex governor that has rejected those things in Nigeria.

What exactly is your point? Does Anambra State government pay Obi pension? Did Obi get a house and a portion of land from the State government as his benefit for governing the State?

Your logic is so childish and weak. Many States adopted the bill before and after 2009. This means it is a normal practice in every State in Nigeria. Obi signed it because it is the normal thing in Nigeria. He then rejected the entitlement to show he is personally against the bill. Obi signed the bill because the stake holders and the State house of assembly wanted it. Only a tyrant will refuse to sign the bill.

A governor is not the one who proposes a bill in a State. A governor only signs a bill when majority in the State house of assembly approves the bill. A selfish governor can bribe some house of assembly members to propose a bill that will in turn serve the governor's personal interest. But in this case, Obi rejected those things. Had it been he accepted those entitlements, it will be believed he lured the house into passing the bill.


an executive (president or governor) can either sign or withhold accent from a bill duly passed by the lawmakers. PMB signed many bills but he also withhold accent for some.

from what you narrated I think Mr Obi lacks the courage to consistently do the right thing and be on the side of the right thing always whether or not it's the normal in Nigeria.

His words do not match his actions. In Anambra, there exist pension benefits law signed by Peter Obi.
It is rather easier to have tranches of funds diverted into private purse through a bank you owned with your tracks easily covered.
