Tony Barcanista !!! Another Nunu spotted. Las Las Every mumu Go get Sense for This Country.

omohayek:
It's telling that nearly all of the responses to the OP's post have consisted of personal insults or accusations of being in the pay of the PDP, with not even a pretence at trying to refute any the accusations leveled against Saint Peter Obi, the promised messiah. Obi ers simply can't help but reveal their intellectual vacuity, egocentricity, intolerance of dissent and tribalistic chauvinism whenever faced with the slightest opposition - the very same characteristics displayed by all the "Biafra or Death" chanting Nnamdi Kanu ers who littered this forum until very recently adopting radio silence upon the rise of their new "Chosen One", Peter Obi. Why does it matter whether TonyeBarcanista is a diehard PDP er or not, if the accusations he makes are true? Even if he were being paid directly by Atiku himself in bundles of cash, how would that invalidate anything he has said?

What it all comes down is that there is no substance at all behind all the "Obidient" hype: it is simply the latest manifestation of the same tribalistic sentiment which saw so many Igbos demanding that the APC and PDP cede their presidential candidacies to an Igbo man on the basis of "fairness, equity and justice", as if the presidency of Nigeria were a tribal reward to be served out on a "turn by turn" basis, rather than a position of duty towards all Nigerians. Peter Obi's candidacy is simply the current vehicle for that sense of tribal entitlement, with nothing to recommend it above that of Atiku or Tinubu outside of that narrow lens - Obi brings no ideas to the table, just glaring lies and meaningless generalities, Obi has very little in the way of past achievements to speak of, Obi has jumped between even more parties than Atiku and Tinubu, and Obi has been directly implicated in breaking Nigerian laws in a way neither Atiku nor Tinubu have. How then is such a man being portrayed as some model of visionary thinking and moral rectitude? How is it that the same people who point to a bullion van entering a private person's house as supposedly glaring evidence of corruption, have no shame in pretending it is acceptable for a sitting governor to be caught transporting N250 million of public money in his convoy?

If this were a Moghalu candidacy we were talking about, one might understand the excitement, but it isn't. Peter Obi is simply another crooked, mediocre Nigerian politician without an ounce of principle or any core beliefs other than personal advancement, and his fanatical ers don't care because this too is, for them, merely about getting "their person" into Aso Rock, not about any universal principles. That's why they are so quick to resort to insults and threats to silence anyone who might pop the bubble of manufactured hype around their false messiah - they recognize that they can't defend him merely with the tools of reason and factual evidence.

MAY GOD BLESS YOU!

SugarGirl44:
Now compare this mediocre to Tinubu who even created more local governments.
I don't have any problem with ibo people who are campaigning for obi, it's your right to want your person in aso rock, because in Nigeria you have to fight for your people.
The country is a jungle, and if you doze off, you'll be left behind.

My problem is with you Yoruba people carrying obi on your head despite knowing that Tinubu is like a University Professor while obi is a diploma student.
Ṣe won ṣepe funyin ni?

Nigeria is not a real country where you apply some sane logic, every tribe is fighting for their people here, but you have chosen to be unfortunate, ing ibo people to insult Tinubu, esp without any concrete proof.
When have you heard ibo people complain about their useless governors? They'll rather protect them and move away from their terrible states down to Lagos to avoid bad govt.
But you want to be woke and destroy yourself in the process.

You can only have a perfect election in Yoruba Nation, then you can truly judge holistically.
But in this jungle, if you others, they will rule over you. Nigeria wasn't supposed to happen, it was a terrible mistake of lugard and his side chic, so don't any sanity in it.

Shebi you can see how aboki people are heading every parastatal in our SW, without considering we the owners, that's the same thing that will happen IF obi wins, in fact it would be worse, considering how arrogant ibos are.

Our last hope is Yoruba Nation but pending that time, your own o.
To ba ngbọ gbe gbe gbe, ko bawon gbe, to ba lọ sun pẹrẹn, wọn ma gbe si eyinkunle ẹ ni.
Toh, a word is enough for the wise.

If you like insult me too, my mouth is badder than yours.

God bless you.

mycar:

Truth must be said, on one person head, he is the leader of IPOB, he hated ipob , he couldn't manage insecurity, he dealt with them badly, so why can't they make of their mind and take up one lie atleast?

hmmmm

We are not saying Obi is a saint,we have no saint in Nigeria..we have had all this allegations against PO it is beginning to sound like a broken record.we just see him as the best choice among bad choices.Tell us who is better in your own opinion?

Tflex01:


God bless you.

Amen and you too.

Lezzlie:
ok. I am he whose actual life is greater than your wildest fantasies and whose path is superior to your destiny.

From the molecular level, you were designed to be nature's experiment.

No, you do not have a comprehension problem. You are mad. Who released you from Yaba left?

By TonyeBarcanista

Since the commencement of the 2023 electioneering season, the term 'Obidient' is a slogan that has dominated the media airwaves, especially on social media. Subscribers to the Obidient slogans are Nigerians that are advocates of Chief Peter Gregory Obi, the Presidential candidate of Labour Party. Majority of his ers are driven by rare display of patriotism coupled with the popular yearning for political change in Nigeria, a handful of his advocates have taken to the extreme of portraying him as an infallible mortal that is at par or a little lower than a sacred deity. To this set of people, it is abominable to criticise, question or express displeasure in Obi's credentials or candidacy.

Obi, a former governor of Anambra State who until May 23, 2022 was a chieftain of Peoples Democratic Party and Presidential hopeful on the Party's platform, is portrayed by his promoters as the long-awaited messiah to deliver the country from the calamity brought upon the country by the Muhammadu Buhari led istration. He is marketed as one with a "frugal" personality in of spending (perhaps a miser) who will not allow waste of public resources as President, and will ensure that Nigeria has enough in its reserves like Anambra had under Obi's istration as governor of the state like he (Obi) claimed - though this claim is disputed by his successor, Chief Willie Obiano - but that is a discussion fot another day. Aside his supposed frugality, Obi is portrayed as an incorruptible public officer that has never engaged in financial misconduct while in office. We'll see how true this claim is!

While I agree with the Obi promoters that Nigeria needs a new political leadership that will rescue the country from its current woes and entrench a working system for sustained improvement of the lives of Nigeria citizens, I disagree with them on the choice of Obi as the ideal pilot to lead Nigeria to greatness. Here is an individual that relies in his personal abilities for leadership. Obi has not made mention of any team that he assembled to work with whether while as governor of Anambra state. Even as the candidate of Labour Party, he has no known campaign team (structure) aside Chief Doyin Okupe. Whenever he speaks, he is always about self. The implication here is that as President he will the typical 'Mister Know-it-all' leader, which will be counterproductive to the expectations of Nigerians. But that is not my biggest concern about Obi.

While most citizens are demanding for devolution of power to the grassroot through restructuring of the Nigeria political system, Obi does not come across as a President that believe in power devolution. His record as Anambra State governor shows a man that does not believe in the third tier of government; which is supposed to be the closest to the grassroot. While the Constitution of Nigeria empowers State Governments through their State Independent Electoral Commission (SIEC) to conduct council elections for this tier of government, Obi who became Anambra State governor in March 2006, wilfully elected to run the local government through appointees under the nomenclature of Caretaker Committee in flangrance disobedience to the Constitution. Obi's refusal to conduct council elections drew the anger of stakeholders within and outside Anambra state, including the Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF) that he was not just a member but the Vice Chairman. The NGF in its report on Peer Review Mechanism that was released on March 18, 2013 (Obi 7th year in office) decried the action of Obi as undemocratic. Mr. Afeikhema Jerome, who was the National Coordinator of the State Peer Review Mechanism NGF, went further to appeal to Anambra Government under Obi “to urgently set the machinery in motion and conduct credible local government elections”.
(please find Times report on the story here: https://www.timesng.com/news/top-news/127070-ngf-scolds-anambra-ekiti-16-others-over-non-conduct-of-council-polls.html).

inspite the scolding by NGF, Obi still refused to conduct Council election. He waited until 2 months to the expiration of his tenure (ten months after release of NGF report) to eventually conduct it. Specifically, the election was conducted on 11 January, 2014. In other words, Anambra State had no functional governments at the local government level for 7 years and 10 months out of the 8 years of Obi's reign. Many believed that the council election was hurriedly conducted by Obi so as to get necessary structures on ground to mobilize for votes for Chief Willie Obiano, his anointed candidate for the 2014 gubernatorial election of the State.
(See PT publication on NGF report: https://www.timesng.com/news/top-news/127070-ngf-scolds-anambra-ekiti-16-others-over-non-conduct-of-council-polls.html). If Obi as Governor stifled the local government system in his state, what magic will he bequeath Nigeria as a whole with respect to power devolution?

Nigeria is plagued with insecurity, terrorism, banditory and insurgency that citizens cannot live their lives freely due to fear of the men of the underworld. The country is in dire need of a leader that will change the tide; but is Obi competent enough to handle such burden? Let's see how he handled similar issue in Anambra State.

As Governor, Obi faced the Biafra agitators under the banner of Movement for the Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, and led by Mr. Ralph Uwazuruike. Obi's solution to address the MASSOB agitation was a declaration of an undemocratic "Shoot-at-sight" order on MASSOB . The order, which which drew condemnation by many, was issued in June 2006 (3 months into his government), and also extended to of NARD and "other hoodlums" in the State. As a consequence of the order, security forces combed Onitsha, Nnewi, Oba, Ihiala and environs and were alleged to have shot, killed, and maimed anyone suspected to be member of MASSOB. On 20th January 2013, residents woke up to discover over 40 floating corpses in Ezu River located in Amansea, Awka, Anambra State. Following the discovery, MASSOB through its spokesman, Mr Uchenna Madu (now factional leader of MASSOB), released a statement on 10 February 2013, identified the corpses as that of its that were arrested by DSS and handed over to Police on November 9, 2012 but disappeared afterwards. He identified some of the bodies as; Basil Ogbu, Michael Ogwa, Sunday Omogo, Philip Nwankpa, Eze Ndubisi, Ebuka Eze, Obinna Ofor, Joseph Udoh and Uchechukwu Ejiofor. Excerpt of the statement reads;

“MASSOB with deep sense of grief and sorrow wishes to inform Mr. Ban Ki Moon (UN Secretary General), President Goodluck Jonathan, US president, Barrack Obama, United Nations Human Rights Commission (UNHRC) and Amnesty International about the gruesome murder of MASSOB by the Special Anti Robbery Squared SARS, of Nigeria Police Force, Awkuzu Anambra State. Some of our disguised and family relations of the detained were denied access to them. Efforts by our counsel to secure their bail from the police were futile. Our demands for their arraignment before a competent court of law were frustrated by SARS officers. We got information from an insider at SARS headquarters, Awkuzu that armless MASSOB detained at SARS were secretly killed alongside other robbery suspects. Our lawyers, who confidently waited for their arraignment in January 2013 did not believe that such barbaric, primitive and wicked act could happen because, according to them, a comprehensive police reform on Human Rights was being carried out by the new Inspector General of Police.”
(Ref YNaija: https://ynaija.com/bodies-floating-in-river-are-our--secretly-killed-by-security-agents-massob-graphic-image/)

Mr. Uchenna Madu again in November 2013 indicted Governor Peter Obi as being responsible for the killing of MASSOB through his "Shoot-on-sight" order and even vowed to arrest him afer his gubernatorial tenure. In his own words: “We hold Peter Obi responsible for the killings. This reminds us about the 2006 shoot-on-sight order by Governor Peter Obi who massacred about 2,000 MASSOB . We shall arrest him and pay him back in his own coin in our own way immediately he steps down as the governor because his recent action of killing MASSOB will heavily affect APGA chances of winning this election.” Madu spoke on November 14, 2013 while reacting to killing of MASSOB by security forces the previous day.
(ref: https://www.cknnigeria.com/2013/11/we-ll-arrest-peter-obi-after-leaving.html?m=1)

On April 12, 2014, Mazi Chris Mocha, the Deputy Publicity Secretary of MASSOB released a statement on behalf of Uwazuruike fingering Obi alongside Chief Achike Udenwa (former Imo state governor 1999-2007) and Chief Olusegun Obasanjo of ordering killings of MASSOB extrajudicially. An excerpt of the statement reads; “Mr. Peter Obi and former Imo State governor, Dr. Achike Udenwa, had ordered the killing of MASSOB between 2003 and 2006 and would be tried in court in due course. Obi had on May 11, 2006 under the Presidency of Olusegun Obasanjo deployed over 200 federal troops most of who were of Hausa and Fulani tribes to Onitsha and issued a shoot-at-sight order to them. Thousands of our were killed, including a pregnant woman and 65 others still missing,”

Clearly, Obi could not manage the insurgency in Anambra State as governor, how much more that of Nigeria that is more complex with religious and ethnic coloration?

Another concern on Obi is his alleged abuse of office in the management of public funds and dishonesty in the forms with respect to failure to declare some assets that he had interest in before the Code of Conduct Bureau. Dishonesty is one character that is not expected of a President that is determined to effect change positively.

Peter Obi is among the public figures that were indicted by Pandora Papers of financial misconduct. Specifically, he was said to have of used the name of his daughter, Gabriella to set up discreet Company named Gabriela Investments Limited in 2010 (during his 4th year in office as Anambra Governor) in British Virgin Island through a local ed agent, Aleman Cordero Galindo & Lee Trust (BVI) Limited (Alcogal). Acces International, a notorious firm located in Monaco facilitated the deal. Peter Obi was also fingered to own other offshore companies that he hid in secrecy. He equally had interest in NEXT International (UK) 14 months into his term as governor: which is contrary to the law. Worse is, he didn't declare these assets before the Code of Conduct Bureau; a statutory requirement for public officers. As reported by Times, Obi equally itted to operate offshore businesses and maintained foreign s while as Governor - in disobedience to the Constitutional provisions.

Penultimate to 2015 election, many refused to x-ray the suitability of Muhammadu Buhari because we were carried away by the "Change" slogan of APC, we cannot afford to repeat same blunder with the "Obidient' slogan in 2023. Sloganeering do not translate to good governance and better welfare for Nigeria citizens.

Obi, still part of the elite, I'm not expecting any dramatical change, should he become the president. He will only stabilize things and shy away from restructuring or attacking foundational problems of Nigeria, thereafter his tenure, Nigeria will return to default settings, as in Jonathan case.

This same Peter Peter Obi or you are simply brain dead or what ?!

Tribal bigot sighted! Have you travelled to by yourself? Or you're just being fed with your slave master to be doing Agbero work? Sufferness never do you? Do you think you're enjoying your life in the family house? Better the Obedient and get a better future for your Children instead of following the shaky Shaky man who always run abroad for treatment. Peter Obi saved so much money for Anambra State to avoid being broke. He built so many schools, Roads,factories, Drainage systems, Hospitals,etc. He bought an end to god-fatherism and so many achievements. It was out of the money he saved that an airport was built which the past Governor testified to,in the time other Governors are broke.
