Peter Obi Speaks On The Ongoing Hunger Protest by Atuero(m): 9:55am On Aug 02 |
I have noticed some deliberate and well-orchestrated efforts by some persons to blackmail me into conforming to some of their nefarious agenda. Their dubious moves have led to the false circulation of a video from my recent keynote speech at the installation of Rotarian Professor A. U. Nnonyelu in Anambra State. They have twisted the video to suit their motive to suggest that I declared war on Northerners when, in fact, I spoke about declaring war on economic stagnation, insecurity, and corruption. Another video circulating online, supposedly showing me leading a protest in Abuja, is also false. The video was actually taken during my visit to the Labour Party HQ, where I mediated a clash between the Labour Party and the NLC. The video was conveniently edited to create a false narrative, and those responsible have been paid to spread this misinformation. This kind of misinformation has no place in our democracy, where truth and honesty should prevail. This misrepresentation is part of a larger narrative of blackmail, aimed at fitting me into their malicious agenda. I remain committed to a new Nigeria where justice, equity, and caring for the citizens will prevail over the greed of a few. Similarly, and deeply disturbing, I have read genocidal threats on X against the Igbo tribe, calling for their relocation. Let me pointedly warn that such rhetoric threatens our unity and is fundamentally opposed to our Constitution, which guarantees every Nigerian the right to live and work freely anywhere in the country. Those in authority must show leadership and urgently speak out against such divisive rhetoric. Immediate action should be taken to investigate, arrest, and prosecute those behind this heinous agenda, serving as a deterrent to others who might consider pursuing similar paths that threaten our national security and unity. I urge all Nigerians to stand united against this divisive rhetoric and to champion unity, tolerance, and understanding. Our future depends on our ability to live and work together harmoniously. The government and security agencies must act swiftly to protect this fundamental principle and ensure that every Nigerian can live free from fear of discrimination or persecution. We must not allow our present challenges to drive wedges among us. We can only overcome our national challenges if we act together as one people United under God. #PeterObi 🇳🇬 We keep pushing ✅ 7 Likes |

APC as a party and politicians in general have been using religion and tribe to divide, deceive and rob the masses. But the everything has gotten to the equilibrium point and can no longer work. You can only deceive some people sometimes but can never deceive all the people all the times. The ongoing protest is a clear message. And if the right thing is not done, the main revolution is coming sooner than anticipated. The Government must be proactive in taking the right steps and act now. 1 Like |

This same Obi that turned a blind eye to hunger when he was in power? Now he wants to play the savior? It's rich coming from him. He should have addressed the hunger issues when he had the chance, not now that it suits his narrative. Typical of these politicians to jump on a trending issue for clout. Let’s see if he will actually do anything meaningful or just continue to grandstand. 7 Likes |

Speaking from where? All the killings from South East since Monday, Obi refused to say peem about it. Why are the current opposition leaders in Nigeria just so petty like this? So as how Atiku was talking about a thread made by one person against the Igbos but chose to generalized it while there was destruction protest from north yesterday 9 Likes |
Re: Peter Obi Speaks On The Ongoing Hunger Protest by MasterJayJay: 10:56am On Aug 02 |
helinues:Babablu bulabu. Obi is not your president. Tinubu has not said anything about the killings. Is Tinubu an opposition leader? Clowns will leave Tinubu that swore to protect Nigeria, only to attack a private citizen. |

This is just another attempt by the agulu messiah to shift blame. Instead of addressing the real issues causing hunger, he’s grandstanding for attention. Where was he when his party was in power? Hypocrisy at its finest! 5 Likes |

DevilsEqual: What percentage of igbos are civil servants in the first place? We survive on business and contracts not salary that can't feed a home, it is the over dependence on salary that is making you guys cheer politicians in situations of meagre salary increase Here in Ogbere ijebu, ijebu east LG head quarters of Ogun state, once salary is delayed the people depend on we igbos traders for survival until salary is paid and of cos the debt comes with interest and we help them exhaust the salary quickly while the cycle continues Go to court if displeased |
