Peter Obi: The Man Who Listens To Advice From A Mad Man by Gbadamosi01(m): 4:15pm On Jul 02, 2022 |
PETER OBI: THE MAN WHO LISTENS TO ADVICE FROM A MAD MAN The race for the 2023 general election gets more interesting with the unexpected rise in the political relevance, clout and followers of former governor, Peter Obi. It now appears that there are 3 major contenders for the presidency. Peter Obi has a decent antecedent and political history as a former governor. He seems to be the favourite of many Nigerian youth on social media. Popular Nigerian celebrities have also identified with the OBIdient movement. Critics have always argued that Peter Obi reels out unverified statistics in order to remain politically correct. They have also found a way to criticize him on his recent story about a mad man he met at Onitsha. In a viral video, Peter Obi, during a visit to the physically challenged, narrated a story. Read his speech below; "Although I wasn't invited, I just went on my own (to visit the physically challenged). Then, I told them; ' You're not disabled. You're only physically challenged. We're the same thing. We'll show you love and we'll not show you hatred." "I told them that the best thing I did in Anambra State, the best advice I got to stop crime in a place called Upper Iweka, was gotten from a mad man. It was a mad man who sleeps there. When I was a governor, he came to greet me and everyone pushed him away" "I objected and I went to hug him. While hugging him, he asked me a question; 'Are you looking for this?' I replied in the affirmative. He told me exactly what to do. I did that and that was the end (of insecurity in the place) "Although I live in Onitsha, till today, whenever I come around, I hug him and he tells me what's happening in Onitsha. Yet, he's a mad man. Nobody wants to be mad." "Therefore as a leader, you lead those who are good. Nobody is poor and we're all children of God. Whatever we have here is blessings of God. Do not belittle anybody." His supporters have used this to portray him as a man who's kind, benevolent and understanding. A man who has regards for everyone, including the physically challenged. A man who has listening ears. The reverse is the case with his critics. There are claims that Upper Iweka, the area where Peter Obi claimed to have restored peace, remained a troubled and terrible place to live during his tenure. It was said that Charles Soludo (the new governor) was the one who maintained decorum in the area.

Everyone matters. What a country where sages and wise counsel are trivialized. I recall, Remember the Ide of March! Obi is an ordained president. Those who don't like God's decision should meet Him in heaven to ask Him why. 3 Likes |

Madness varies and it comes with grade... Some are just traumatized, some suffering from schizophrenia, some bipolar disorder, some azheimar disease and whatnot... It's only in Nigeria that they allow people with mental disorders parambulate the whole town without care thereby degenerating the disorder. This message shows that PO is open to all, no sectional government. ![]() |

Peter Obi of Labour Party is simply the best candidate and the man Nigeria needs desperately come 2023 presidential election. He outlined the issues that has bedevilled the country over the years proffering solutions to change the narrative once and for all. Peter Obi said: 1. I can’t sleep because I know what to do! I have gone round the 36 States of the country like I have gone round 31 countries of the world, I know the problems of Nigeria and I know I can fix them easily! Because I can see them, I can fix them! 2. Hunger takes people to the streets! Job and food will obviously take them out of crimes! That’s my specialty, creating jobs and wealth! 3. I have not come out for myself! I have come out for the millions of youths that are losing hope in our beloved country! I have come out for the millions of women who are afraid of tomorrow and what it holds for them and their children! I have come out for the poor who are asking weather it’s a sin to be a Nigerian! For them, I have come! 4. For people who are asking if Peter Obi has ‘structure’, what structure is bigger and stronger than the collective will of the masses on whose necks the knees of the politicians have been? What structure is greater than the determination of a people who have at last decided to take back their country, their only country? 5. The battle for the rescue of the soul of Nigeria has just begun and we must all be contributive and participative in it. 6. Yes, we may not have the money to share because we didn’t steal any.We have not come to enslave but to serve. 7. Have you imagined somebody giving you money to help you? Bribing you to go and serve you? It’s wisdom to go for a permanent solution than a temporary remedy! 8. This battle is to help Nigerian youths, Market women, struggling families, students, teachers, famers, old and poor, whose helpless looking faces I see everywhere I go. It’s for these people that l, Peter Obi, have come! However, like a drowning man, they must bring out their hands to be saved! 9. In this battle, if you can’t fly, run! If you can’t run, walk! If you can’t walk, crawl! If you can’t crawl, roll! If you can’t roll, shout! By all means we must be on the move and we must be heard! 10. These people are more than 50 million of the Nigerian voting adults. They have the power. Their destiny is in their hands so they can change it. If they will it, they will win it! 11. Remember, the man with energy will always be at the mercy of the man with strategy based on synergy. With God on our side, we shall not fail and we shall not fall! May God help us! God bless Nigeria! 12. I will rather lose doing the right thing than win doing the wrong thing. 13. Nigeria must move beyond oil; we must move from Consumption to Production nation. 2 Likes |

Sometimes "There is sense in nonsense" however doing what a madman says is not in anyway a sign of good Leadership. perhaps maybe he considered what the man had said and found a better solution. |

kelechi50:The difference is clear See what Tinubu collects from Lagos State government since leaving office in 2007 by the law passed by him as governor: 1. 300% annual salary as severance package as approved by RMAFAC. 2. 100% of annual basic salary of incumbent gov as salary for LIFE even after leaving office. 3. Six new cars every 3 years 4. A new house in Lagos, minimum 5 bedroom 5. A new house in Abuja or any other location, minimum 5 bedroom. 6. Free medical care for him and members of his family for life. 7. Entitled to cooks, stewards, Gardners, and domestic staffs, all pensionable. 8. 300% of his annual basic salary as governor every 2 years as furniture allowance 9. 100% of annual basic salary as governor as his house maintenance allowance 10. Two DSS officers, 1 female officer for his wife and eight policemen to guard him. 11. 25% of his annual basic salary for personal assistants. 12. 30% of his annual basic salary for car maintenance . 13. 20% of his annual basic salary as utilities maintenance. 14. Pensionable drivers, no limits to the number. This is apart from what he gets as a percentage of collections from Alpha Beta for tax collections for Lagos State and the total control he has over the governor and the treasury. But See what Peter Obi collects from Anambra State since leaving office as governor: 1. No gratuity 2. No pensions 3. No houses 4. No cars 5. No allowances of any kind 6. No maintenances of any kind. 7. No personal assistants paid by the state. 8. No domestic staffs paid by the state. 9. No aids sponsored by the state. 10. Not even pure water. 11. No shishi from the State. So choose you today who means well for Nigeria and who will serve the people selflessly. Am just exposing your mind to see the truth. It is now your decision to make and to convince others. Use your reasoning. Vote and support wisely. 1 Like |
