I’m Not Happy, I Didn’t Promise Anyone Happiness – Peter Obi (1997 Views)
(1) Go Down)
bennybuhari: 11:42pm On Aug 13, 2022 |
Presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi has said he did not promise to make anyone happy if he becomes president as he is not happy with the current situation in the country. Obi who said this in an interview on News Central TV which was monitored by Daily Independent said what he promised Nigerians is to take the country and restore it to its rightful place in the comity of nations if elected president in the 2023 general elections. On claims by some that he is stingy, Obi said he is unmoved, adding that the same thing was said about him when her was governor of Anambra state yet he judiciously utilised the state’s little resources for the common good. He however added that his greatest joy is that nobody has accused him of being a thief or looted public funds. He said “This is the time to scrutinise those who are offering themselves. When people are contesting in America, you see their uncles and aunties come out and say ‘yes, this person can be president or cannot be’. That is where we are now. You need to see the character of this man, he said lives in Onitsha; we in Onitsha knows him”. “There are so many people that will tell you this man is useless. Not everybody will tell you that I’m good, they will tell you he is useless. I heard somebody on TV yesterday who said ‘don’t vote Peter Obi’. He said there is no way he can vote Peter Obi because the man is wicked and he doesn’t give anybody one naira”. But nobody said Peter Obi is a thief”. “I have seen even church people say the man doesn’t give anybody anything. I have been in positions where I go around, come to Abuja and people say the people are not happy with you, I said why? In my heart as governor, I never promised anybody happiness. I promised to fix schools. Are the schools working? Yes”. “So, those who want to be happy can go to the people in entertainment who make people happy. I am not happy myself. We want to fix it and I assure you we can start with the youths. All I am telling the youths is ‘come, let us take back our country’. "Nigeria has one of the most robust talented youths. You see this people you think are doing yahoo-yahoo, that is what happened in India, you turn them, lead them, you position them, then they will change the world". https://independent.ng/im-not-happy-i-didnt-promise-anyone-happiness-peter-obi/ 17 Likes 4 Shares |

Nigeria does not need someone who is already psychologically impaired! He is not yet President and already overwhelmed and unhappy! Last time I checked, unhappy people have the least productivity. We need a vibrant man full of hopes with logical and feasible dreams, and that’s where His Excellence, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu comes to play! 8 Likes 3 Shares |

This statement sounds like Obi is another Buhari in the waiting, possibly Buhari pro max. The same people who claimed that Buhari govt is too tight & hard cos money is not in circulation are the same Zombidients marketing a self professed stingy man on us. Kai!

Linus hasn't even gotten there he'd started reneging from his promises one by one. It's only those that didn't know him that will take him serious, most of us that know him know he's a pathological liar. ANYWAY HE CAN'T GET THERE IN THE FIRST INSTANCE. 1 Like 1 Share |

Aufbauh:The problem with Buhari is that he doesn't even know how the money is been spent, he is lost in his throne, no iota of what happens around him. For Peter Obi, He will spend on areas to be spent on, things that matter, he won't be spending billions on aso rock clinic if not important, budget won't be padded, the exact amount been appropriated will be what would be spent, no largesses . Have you wondered why those thieving politicians are not following him, they wouldn't mind teaming up against him because he wants to render them poor for atleast 4 years. His government is no for party or enjoyment, He awards contract based on competence and cost, I know him personal for that one. he participate in the contract bidding to be sure the best deal is stroke. |

To the obidient movement, The youths have found a voice in being obidient. The youths have found a platform for sounding their voices, the youths are ever ready to show their resolve in rescuing their nation. The youths chose Peter obi and not the other way round, his ideals, his moral capacity and his records are enviable, while resonating with the thought process of Nigerian youths. To the youths , I greet you, I applaud you, this is a fight for your voices to be heard. The naysayers fight everyday to discourage you, they attack you with lies and accuse you of bullying. Don't be discouraged, you are only taking a political position in Nigeria's affairs. However I have to tell you the vision for the obidient movement. The movement must go beyond the campaign and sensitization season, the movement must fight to the very end. The goal of enthroning the youth's choice to lead us will be achieved, however the job is not yet done. The naysayers and detractors are already planning on how to make the presidency of your choice a bad one. Through their terrorist activities. The intend to graduate from naysayers to terrorists, they will attack the land with media lies, sponsored attacks of terrorism, insider jobs with sponsored moles and many more evils they can muster. Be ready for such eventuality when your choice wins, be ready to defend your choice in office, he/she will have it rough at the beginning, but once the enemies of the nation see your continuing resolve to fight for a Nigeria of your vision, they will eventually back away and allow your choice to paddle Nigeria forward. Even after your choice leaves office, the next generation of obidient youths must exercise their rights through the movement to pick the best Nigerian to lead the nation again. The right to pick who leads this nation must always be by the youths of that age. The youths of that age will always be the decision makers on who would pilot the affairs of the nation. Only the competent and morally just of candidates will qualify. Great men and women from all parts of Nigeria, will have a chance to pitch to the obident nigerian youths, they will sell their ideas and characters and the youths will vote to make their choice president and other elective posts. The naysayers will see your success and your ranks and Nigeria will become great again. Don't be scared of losing, be motivated in expressing your vision. To lose is part and parcel of elections, just as it is to win. The fear of losing should never be an encumbrance to stop you from expressing your voice and choice. The youths will always be the enlightened generation, the detribalized generation, the religiously fluid generation and it is on your efforts and your choices, that every new Nigeria will be built. Ensure that this first journey , which will be a start of a life long journey is accomplished without violence, without tribal and religious hatred, without corruption and with our firm motto of "we no dey give shishi". God is our patron and he will ordain our choices everyday you fight for the good of Nigeria. Be obidient and useful. 2 Likes |

mycar: It's almost same line of defense for Buhari that you're putting up here. It is on record that the political elites were not with Buhari except for the merger. Buhari is even better positioned then as he has being a C-in-C before unlike Obi that has little knowledge of national politics. |

You better not. This nation needs serious re-engineering.It will take donkey's years to undo the damage Buhari and the APC have inflicted upon this nation.
