Why I Picked Peter Obi As My Running Mate – Atiku

The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for 2019 election, Atiku Abubakar, Friday night confirmed he had picked former Governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi as his running mate.

The confirmation was contained in a statement by the Atiku Presidential Campaign Organisation (APCO).

APCO also gave reasons why Obi was picked, explaining that his choice was largely influenced by his youthfulness, vast knowledge of global and local economics as well as being a financial expert, an experience which it said Nigeria was in need of at this point in time.

The statement by the Director General, Atiku Presidential Campaign Organisation (APCO), Otuba Gbenga Daniels, described Obi as an astute professional who had laid his footprints across the corporate world.

Daniels said Obi, born on 19th July, 1961, attended the Christ the King College, Onitsha and later proceeded to the University of Nigeria, Nsukka where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy.

He said Obi was also a graduate of several international and national institutions such as the Lagos Business School, Harvard Business School, London School of Economics, Columbia Business School, Institute of Management, Switzerland, Kellogg Graduate School, Oxford University and Cambridge University.

He said Obi was the Chairman, Board of Security and Exchange Commission (SEC); former Chairman, Fidelity Bank PLC; former Chairman, Guardian Express Mortgage Bank; former Chairman, Future Views Securities; former Chairman, Paymaster Nigeria; former Chairman, Next International Nigeria; former Director, Guardian Express Bank PLC; former Director, Chams Nigeria PLC; former Director, Emerging Capital: former Director, Card Centre PLC.

Daniel said Obi is a member of the British Institute of Directors (IOD), Nigerian Chartered Institute of Bankers and Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG).

globemoney:

Because the criminal and “wisest” Peter Obi in his usual desperation staged his VP announcement and leaked it to the press without official confirmation by Atiku, now has arm twisted Atiku to announce him as VP?

You can cry from now to tomorrow, I will NEVER support adaobi and by the way if you’re looking for someone whose not from Anambra but claiming to be, check this handle “OMANBALA1”

A big project like this, and no cranes?

Can't tell how serious they are with the project and if the finished product will be in keeping with what's shown in the render, until we see more of the ongoing job and the equipment being used!

From the little i see, looks a bit like one of those Rochas 'direct labour with head-pan' jobs!

OMANBALA1:


I bet Pazienza is equally not from Anambra
..lol. Ala ga agba ndi ala, keep grasping at straws. Meanwhile, how about your Ifeanyi Ubah and his Senate dream... Agwalu m' gi, ibu onye oghom! A loser! You attract failure like faeces attract flies.

Additionally, people who knew you from earliest moniker on NL know you are from Enugu. I don't have anything to prove because everybody here knows I am a solid nwa onye Anambra.
It's gonna be a sad week for ya...lol

So because of local political differences,a full grown Igbo man that was well breastfed by an Igbowoman, would Now be kicking against Peter Obi VP candidature? Does this even make sense at all.
Kedu udili mmadu putachalu ofuu, anyi nwejulu na Alaigbo these days?

If you say you are against Obi because you are an IPOB member who believes in election boycott in Igboland until Biafra is achieved, I would understand, even though I would not support you.
But to say you would vote for anyone but Obi, mehn! That's messed up. Obi is repping Ndiigbo currently , if you have personal fight with him, learn to separate it from the current post he is holding.

Peter Obi bu nkeanyi kita. All hands must be on deck to take him to aso rock.

Did APC make Okorocha their presidential candidate?

We knew Okorocha has no clout in APC. He couldn't even get common house of rep speaker from APC for SE after 2015 victory.
They don't regard him. We were all amused at his talks of presidency, we know even him don't believe he stood any chance at winning the APC presidential candidature any moment in time. Not when Yorubas are positioning themselves for take over of the party after Buhari.

Let Okorocha win APC presidential candidate, and you will see how Ndiigbo will support him. Even I personally will be his number 1 cheerleader.

Southwest On Standby As Igbo Leaders Protest Obi’s Choice As Atiku Running Mate by WisdomFlakes: 1:56pm
The selection of Peter Obi as running mate to Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has been met with protest by south-east leaders.

David Umahi, governor of Ebonyi state, says the leaders of the region were not consulted over the nomination of Obi.

He said the development contravened an initial agreement that the leaders will collectively endorse a candidate for any position zoned to the region.

Umahi, chairman of the south-east governors’ forum, said Igbo leaders and governors were sidelined in the selection process.

He said any position zoned the Igbo must be deliberated upon by the key stakeholders in the south-east.

The governor said he has no ax to grind with Obi but maintained that the right thing must be done by the PDP.

Umahi and some Igbo leaders are expected to hold a meeting on the matter, and may ultimately reject the nomination of Obi as the PDP’s vice-presidential candidate.

Meanwhile, the south-west is on standby to put forward a candidate from the region in the event that Igbo leaders reject Obi and fail to reach a consensus on a replacement.

The south-west and south-east were the two regions from which Atiku was expected to nominate his deputy after emerging PDP flag bearer for the 2019 presidential election.

The ex-vice president, however, opted to select a candidate from the south-east.

Atiku had explained that he picked Obi due to his “vast knowledge of global and local economics as well as being a financial expert, all experience which Nigeria is in great need at this point in time”.
