You Can’t Feast While Nigerians Fast, Obi Slams Tinubu by adenigga(m): 5:21am On Sep 14
Former governor of Anambra State and 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has said Nigeria is in a crisis with 38 million people on the verge of extreme hunger.

Obi berated the President Bola Tinubu-led All Progressives Congress administration for engaging in wasteful spending which, according to him, had further worsened the living conditions of Nigerians.

He listed some of the wasteful spending of government as the purchase of a new presidential jet at $100m, N21bn for the renovation of the vice president’s lodge, and N15bn for the construction of the National Assembly clinic.

“You cannot ask people to fast while you are feasting”, Obi added.

Obi, who spoke during an interview with News Central TV, said the Federal Government must use its lean resources to address issues in key development areas such as health, education, poverty alleviation, and security.

“From all records, Nigeria has 38 million people on the verge of extreme hunger; we are the poverty capital of the world. The two most critical areas that are giving us the crisis are human insecurity and food insecurity. To deal with this, we need to invest in agriculture to solve hunger, unemployment, and inflation,” Obi said.

He hinted at the possibility of a merger with other opposition parties to salvage Nigerians from hunger and widespread insecurity ahead of the 2027 presidential election.

They will invade this thread to attack the messenger. They are not interested in the message. Even if the message will liberate them from the economic strangulation their drug lord has subjected them to, they don't care.
They prefer to be wiped out by the hunger, strife, starvation, high cost of fuel, high inflation and insecurities being inflicted upon them by their drug lord than listen to the message. 

It's quite unfortunate

I concur with his assessment

Some barely eat and forced to do mandatory exercise by walking some miles to get to work.

Whilst our leaders wine and dine and travel to countries around the world.

Adeboye the giant Hypocrite won't embark on a million man protest even when a liter of petrol is now 1200 in some places,1400 in still some.
The old fool has gone mute and only told his stupid and senseless followers to pray that things are hard.
He has suddenly gone silent.
Honestly Tight and strict government control of churches is long overdue in Nigeria.
That's what China saw from afar and maintains an extremely tight control over religious organizations there.
Who born you as a pastor to interfere in political affairs or make political statements and publicize it in China.
Who born you to open a church in Pentecostalism without the approval and registration of the Chinese government?
Who born you to sell " miracle soap" without the approval of the Chinese government?
Authoritarianism is often the best way to maintain orderliness in a society.
Why is it that Hypocrite Adeboye, and other private jet totting pastorpreneurs don't go to China to " preach?
What are they afraid of?

Can somebody please tell this lying ANIMAL called Peter Obi that INDIA is the world poverty capital, NOT Nigeria.

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2022/03/india-overtakes-nigeria-as-worlds-poverty-capital/

Plus he is a THIEF AND LOOTER who enriched himself with Anambra state funds and bribery as the head of Lagos port after appointment by military dictator Abacha.

He also refused to pay Anambra state doctors for a whole year while he had tens of millions of dollars sitting in his personal foreign bank accounts.

He needs to SHUT THE HELL UP.

See at this point APC knows that even if Nigerians are dying on the street of hunger, nothing will happen ... The will has been broken, Nigerians are now traumatized into submition, ready and willing to accept anything that comes. Most are thankful to even still be alive at this point .


But I will say this ... Nigerians deserve to suffer ... Even more ... Yes. Because we voted in incompetence and you can't expect to harvest pawpaw from a mango tree.

2027 is near I won't be surprise when we hear APC still wins, afterall if you beat a dog and break it's leg and after a while you call the dog , the dog will come running to you ... Even with the broken leg ... Nigerians wise up ...


These people are our servants according to democracy ... But they have used African values to become masters. And an empty head is just a waste of space oooo

India is not too. South Sudan is. But all fall in the same category including Nigeria,India, Somalia etc . They are all extremely poor countries, hence poverty capitals. Advice your personal lord and savior to change the narratives so we can turn it around not insult an advisor

You did acknowledge the fact that Nigeria is a poverty capital, though your argument with Peter Obi is about between Nigeria and India, which among the two is the poverty capital of the world. 
Because of your hatred for Peter Obi, you are not interested in the fact that Nigeria has 38 million people on the verge of extreme hunger inflicted upon them by the calamitous economic policies of the Tinubu administration. 
You are not interested in the fact that Tinubu lives in opulence, buys a new presidential jet at the cost of $100 million, buys a new yacht, buys a new and glamorous all-black armoured Cadillac Escalade SUV, but turns around to tells Nigerians to continue to endure what he describes as 'baby steps of pain'. 

It's quite unfortunate.

Tell your satanic personal lord and saviour Peter Obi the IPOB terrorist to stop telling LIES about Nigeria.

You are worse than FOOLISH and MORONIC to dare compare NIGERIA to South Sudan and Somalia..

I don't blame you wastrels.

Somebody should send you and Peter Obi to live in South Sudan for ONE FULL MONTH, so you will learn what REAL poverty and suffering is.

It's like u guys have started suffering from PTSD. Where is ur father Mbaka,the famous Buhari ally. Why not call him out.

Yorubas are still the most vocal of Tinubu critics. Check the names of those who have been arrested by police for end bad governance, they're mostly Yorubas. Gani Adams, afenifere,falana and many others have criticized Tinubu,so what else do u people want?
How many hausas or Fulani condemn Buhari's govt like we Yorubas re doing to Tinubu now.

Unfortunately Nigeria is blessed with individuals like the one above.
The Berkeley Economic historian had categorized man in society just like the Greeks did, and found four types of people: The Intelligent, the bandits, the unfortunate and the stupid.

The Intelligent are those who aim to benefit themselves and others (win/win); the bandits are those who benefit themselves by harming others, the unfortunate are those who do harm while trying to benefit others, The stupid are those who seek harm to others without benefiting from it.

Any time you see a person cheering passionately for a politician whose conduct does not make sense or who harm the common good, you are looking at a stupid person.
