That's the point, it's easy to raise points. Anybody can raise points. Point raising doesn't qualify you for a good job. That's what we're telling you. i can watch a world cup final and tell you many faults of the players and coaches. That doesn't make me a better player or coach. We all know Obi is the usual mediocre politician.

The usual mediocre politician like ThiefNuibu, who raised IGR from Lagosians for 25 years but failed to do anything near to what Jakande accomplished in four years of less revenue

WHO SAYS 4 YEARS IN OFFICE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR MEANINGFUL ACHIEVEMENTS?

IT'S A FACT THAT 90% OF GOVERNORS IN NIGERIA SINCE 1999 WITH REVENUES AT THEIR DISPOSAL CANNOT BOAST OF A QUARTER OF THESE ACHIEVEMENTS EVEN WITHIN THEIR EIGHT YEARS IN OFFICE.

Like him or hate him, Peter Obi is saying the hard, bitter and uncomfortable truth to those in government. How dare you tell Nigerian people to manage and endure when a Governor or President has a convoy of 30 to 50 cars? 20 Billion was used not to build the house, but to complete and furnish the house of a VP in a country that many people cannot pay their rent nor own a single bedroom house of their own. Is the VP Shettima homeless in Abuja that should make Federal Government investment money enough to give 20,000 people jobs [url][/url]

Good for Jakande, he is an hero of Lagos state. Tinubu, Fashola, Ambode and Sanwo are also heros and builders of Lagos state, they are not competing against each other but have worked together to build the state. None of them has been mediocre compared to most of the governors from the other 35 states including the FCT.

Well thinking Nigerians do not believe Peter Obi is different from Tinubu and Atiku or even Buhari. If we were to do a census of obidients today, more than 90% would be Igbos, and the massive support is purely tribal/sentimental. Putting an old equipment in a new carton does not change the quality of the equipment.

After throwing away and stealing millions of Obi's votes, they still left him with 6.1 million which they found no way to reduce. If according to you all those 6 million votes are from Igbos but both Yorubas and core Northerners combined to produce only 8.7 million votes for Tunubu, will you still shamelessly argue with anybody who says that Igbos are the most populous tribe in Nigeria?

When tribal hate blind you guys and you argue yourselves into a corner, you'll start denying what everybody heard you say. I'm sure this little info will correct that your mindset which has already been messed up by career liars.

I am sure that Nigerian economy would be far worse under Peter Obi as the president. He may be talking like a messiah, but I am sure he will run out of ideas if he find himself sitting in that office.

They spent #21 billion on the VP's house, subsidized Hajj with over #90 billion, spent #1.5 billion buying cars for a 'First Lady' not recognized by the constitution and so many other unnecessary expenditures but can't pay Nigerian workers a living wage but sycophants like you are cheering them on because of the crumps you get from their tables.

Peter Obi bought 400 SUVs for traditional rulers and senators yet he refused to pay living wage but sycophants like you are you cheering him. Maybe you are the one that feeds from the crumbs from his table.

You guys were probably born yesterday. How you suddenly turned obi, the fraudster, to overnight messiah should be studied in Havard

If you think the change of president will do anything differently, you need to wake up.



Obi has no enviable antecedents. That he suddenly became a messiah to the youth shows that the youth are not ready.



Obi who worked for Abacha, Obi who imports heavily, Obi whose only achievement is saving money when he should be spending them on meaningful projects is certainly not a new breed. He has been around with the old goons. Pretending like he is different from the rest is just a charade which has fooled many Nigerians.





What is the difference between Nigeria of today and Anambra under Obi?






People like you are worse than a thousand Satans. So all the rubbish you're saying means that Tinubu is a better choice, right?

All this amala and ewedu induced corner corner 'h-intelligence' fools no one other than yourself.

It is people like you that are making it seem like Obi would have performed better.




My point is that no one can say their preferred candidate would do a better job.





Politicians look brilliant when they are not in government. Put them in government, and they become dumb.

This fool claimed that he was paying a contractor 250 million in cash while his state workers were on strike for months.
