matrixx9: The age of the leader does noy matter but what he will offer. If Gov peter Obi says we should not vote any leader above 70 years old, have the leaders below 50 or that age as per GEJ and his ilk made the country better? Your age does not matter but what you will offer the people when you get there. |

LRNZH: 1000 Likes. [size=18pt]Only ignorant Nigerians don't appreciate GMB. GEJ and his errand boys enjoy spreading ignorance to mislead and fool the masses. It is always the political tactic of the corrupt oligarchy of the ruling class to use political conceit and deceit to fool as many Nigerians as possible to keep their greed for power. [/size] |

backtosender: Age comes with experience. But some leaders are to just naturally born to carry out this onerous duty. Not Just in politics but in business as well. |

[quote author=Chigold101 post=29392919] Peter Obi is that man whom OBJ could not handle.And now he is in bed with the same OBJ and the Ubah clan/PDP that denied him his mandate, impeached and humiliated him? The same PDP that chased justice Salami under his leadership, the Court of Appeal reinstated him whenever PDP kicks him out. The one that rigged Obiano into power and months later abandoned him, even before he could collect the keys . |

bushdoc9919:Because of their exceptional qualities during service. But in this case, there's nothing exceptional about GMB, only that he killed via coup our nascent democracy that would have blossomed by now. I will always have this at the back of my mind as a true Democrat and i can't adorn him with a garb of democratic system. |

modestdude: Not justifying the 1983 coup....but that Second republic makes this one look good by comparison sometimes. Witness how they wrecked Nigeria Airways for instance.....and how they rigged elections to the point that violence was ever present in 83. |

Eziachi: It wasn't about PDP, APC or whatever party, they don't matter to him. Peter Obi has said he will do whatever it takes to make sure GEJ wins. For a fact, you can hardly hear him discussing PDP, but he will always tell who cares to listen that Goodluck has the ability to lead our nation to where it should be; and the best way he could ensure that is joining GEJ's party, simple. |

He called on Nigerians to elect President Jonathan who he said has what it takes to take the country to the next level in its development. Who the heck is Obi? I hope is not that tribal and religious bigot and an ex-governor of Anambra state. Oh! So he will one day be in a position to ask and canvas for favour from Nigerians. I thought he will not leave his state. Anyway his message is dead on arrival. #Sai Buhari 2015 |

9inches: Do people actually retire these days? In leadership context, age does not matter except what you have to offer. |
Re: Nigerians Should Not Vote A Leader Above 70 Years - Peter Obi by 9inches(m): 6:05pm On Jan 01, 2015 |
rhames: This is service to a nation we are talking about, right.. You are telling me people should die in it? My dear when you are 70 you are assumed to be fragile at least in our own clime. The leadership position in this context requires much of both mental and physical strength. |
Re: Nigerians Should Not Vote A Leader Above 70 Years - Peter Obi by rhames(m): 6:19pm On Jan 01, 2015 |
9inches: If been 70 years of age is useless or fragile or whatever you describe it, why did GEJ pay countless visits to IBB and OBJ? |

9inches:Do you practice your theory of locking up old folks in your own family or your town? Instead of focusing on the issue that affect people, but no, if it's not about being a jihadist, it's baboons and blood or the colour of someone's pubic hair. |

rhames:Did your brain interpret "fragile" in this context as being brain dead? Haven't you seen someone giving out advise from a sick bed? [s] Eziachi:[/s] I never insinuated any of the above. Do you always have this problem of misinterpretation? |

9inches:Not the same vote GEJ not PDP again? Candidates are products of the party that produces them as long as, there no option of independent candidate. Tell me how many local government GEJ can win without PDP? Then you can come with your theory? Let see what Obi will say if GEJ is not in power or Obi himself was to be denied access to Aso Rocks. Obi is like a hooker who claims to love her client. |

judondasylva:Why didn't baby Obi run the presidency himself with APGA rather than joining the gravy train? And God doesn't belong to you and neither can you speak for God. We knew how your God dealt with Absalom when he felt that David was too old and should make way for him. Queen Elizabeth is still on the throne when her son and grandchildren could have pushed her off the throne. And how old is the governor of Ebonyi? No one has kicked him into the lunatic asylum. If GEJ is a good leader according, who is his opponent s age your main concern, rather than focusing on what makes him leader. There are nine other young presidential Candidates. It's not a two horse race. |

Re: Nigerians Should Not Vote A Leader Above 70 Years - Peter Obi by 9inches(m): 6:47pm On Jan 01, 2015 |
Eziachi: A lot of people like me vote because of the candidate and not the party. If GEJ cross-carpets to APC today, many people like me will still vote him. Obi was somebody before GEJ became president and he never depended on GEJ for anything personal. Rather, it is GEJ that needs him judging by his personality and achievements in Anambra state. Obi is a great asset to the presidency having held a position in the economic team even while still serving as a governor.. What does that tell you about his quality? Obi had to be begged by Okonjo, GEJ, Wike and co to come and contribute at the centre. Obi is one of our credible public figures who still has integrity even after holding a public office for 8years. He was about retiring from politics for good before being sought after by the presidency. 1 Like |

9inches: Did my brain eh? Uhmm. Well may be the next comment might be an insult. I still maintain that age does not matter when it comes to leadership and what you have to offer people matters a lot. Take a trip down memory lane in support of my argument. No Chinese leader since Deng Xioping was below 70 years of age when they assumed office. In fact Jiang Ze Min was in his 80's when he assumed the leadership of China and the Chinese economy not only grew but became an export oriented economy and the second largest economy in the world. |

Eziachi:Age should be a concern incase you do not know. Obi does not talk anyhow like your average Nigerian politician; I am sure you read where he gave Buhari credits regardless.. Who does that? It shows the value he places on orderliness and rule of law in a sane society. |

[quote author=Eziachi post=29396013][/quote] lolzzz Point of order sir... OBJ & Peter Obi are notin the same camp in PDP... OBJ is in APC at heart... PDP worked for Obi in 2010 and also worked for Obiano in 2013... Riging OBIANO to power... U r funny sha... Obiano wasnot riged into powerin Anambra state. Ndi Anambra voted for him because we are now wiser. His campaign promises are 4Cs... Which are as follows: 1: Continue (Project left by Obi) 2: Complete (Project left by Obi) 3: Commission the projects & 4: Commence new projects... Ndi Anambra couldnt take the risk of voting in someone who will come and stop ongoing projects because there is no community out ofthe 177communities in the state without one or two projects going on... 1 Like 1 Share |
