Ok

adekanmbi1986:
Ok

THEY SHOULD ALSO INVITE ALL THE OTHER CANDIDATES TOO.

THAT IS... ALL THE OTHER CANDIDATES SHOULD ALSO BE INVITED IN BATCHES..

NOT JUST THESE POPULAR CANDIDATES..


..

REASONS WHY I WILL VOTE FOR PETER OBI.


1. He will block off all the financial leakages in the country, both the official leakages inside the Government, and the unofficial/illegal leakages every other “elsewhere” in Nigeria.

---

For those that would say that he cannot implement this, please they should go and this one below..

In Anambra, he succeeded in blocking off a lot of leakages, and cut down the cost of governance.
More taxes started going directly into the government purse, rather than into the purses of highly-placed individuals.
The IGR of Anambra increased under Peter-Obi, not just because he widened the tax-net,, but because he blocked-off a lot of the leakages.

---

2. He will definitely find ways to start making people to stop hoping to become rich while they are Not doing anything --- the spirit of “working”, productiveness, and investment will be cultivated in Nigerians, and the spirit of “showing-off” and huge spendings on irrelevant things and on frivolvolities would just die off. People would now be counted due to what they do, and not how much money they spend.

---

For those that would say that he cannot implement this particular one, please they should go and this one below too..

The workers in Anambra State started becoming productive. All those redundant and unproductive methods of doing “work” became obsolete in the State. He brought in productiveness into the system. He also started using locally-sourced vendors from amongst the people to supply goods and services to the Government,, (and he never towed the line of giving such contracts to the same “cronies” within the Government which he might have brought in into the Government. He didn't even bring in his “cronies” in his Government to start with.)
For the first time in Anambra State, Local Contractors got contracts without paying any sort of kickbacks.

---

3. He is more interested in developing the people of Nigeria more than he is interested in erecting incessant and unnecessary physical infrastructures, or in spending the money of Nigeria on frivolities. NO.. but he is more interested in developing the people of Nigeria (through things like education, and paying-per-hour policy). Though the physical infrastructures are good, but they are not all necessary for it be the sole purpose of his Government. He can only do the development of physical infrastructures when they are really supposed to serve the priority needs of the people. (That is, physical infrastructures such as power, education, and healthcare facilities.)
(He is not the type of president that would rush to build infrastructure projects in a locality where such projects are not the priority necessity of the people there).

---

For those that would say that he cannot do this particular one, please they should go and this one below too..

The Healthcare and Education systems in Anambra State became the highest ranked in the country for many years back-to-back, unchallenged.

---

4. Peter Obi is the only accessible Candidate. We hear from him directly. He is close to his social media followers and to the mainstream media too. (We don't want Presidents who are hiding away from people. Presidents who are always reaching to us through aides and assistants and cronies. And presidents whom we would continue to guess what exactly they have inside their minds at all times.)

---

For those that would say that he cannot do this particular one, please they should go and this one below too..

He was doing frequent audience phone-in programs on television and radio. People called to ask questions. And he answered all of them, or noted them..
Even recently, with the way he always made himself available to be questioned and interviewed by the mainstream media.., and his recent interaction with citizens on Zoom, it shows that we can always reach him. We have ways of getting him to answer our direct questions.

Table shakers

Ok

Let me see the first Baga that will take excuse to avoid this....

Big question

I only need to ask Tinubu few questions

Did you or did you not attend primary and secondary schools ...if yes what's their name and year itted and graduation

If no why did you say you attended primary and secondary school in 1998 election

Curious345:
is there an escrow in the building ?

Tinubu will not participate ,I stake 500k..

Dare me

I can stake 1 million, with Rufai still working with Arise, Tinubu will avoid that debate

If tinubu goes to any debate or live interview with channels arise or CNN I will vote for him

I am no prophet but I know someone will miss the debate

Tinubu must attend whether him like am or not

.

Expect more powerful quotes like...

chidi2pus:
What time?

6pm

if Tinubu attends that might change my mind to vote him that I know he won't...

Lol..that man fears the public just like his GCFR he enforced up on Nigeria...but this time...we no go gree..Nigeria no be lagos

Tinubu has nothing to offer.

That's why he said he only talks in rallies, and not one on one interviews.

The only thing he knows how to shout is APC, followed by something incoherent.

No intelligent analysis of the situation of the country.

Useless man.

Timigeo:
