BudgIT Founder, Seun Onigbinde Deletes Old Tweets About Peter Obi, Explains Why (21957 Views)

Dapagun: 4:32am On Apr 18
A few days ago, I made the decision to protect my tweets following a coordinated wave of falsehoods, personal insults, and even curses directed at me. Sadly, the nature of discourse on social media—especially Twitter (X)—often swings in a binary fashion: “you’re either with us or against us.” But it doesn’t have to be that way.

To those suggesting I’ve been deleting tweets, I simply say this: I don’t owe you that explanation, nor do I have the time or interest to engage in such distractions. This space has always been, for me, a place to share, learn, and unwind. If I find a tweet that lacks context or no longer serves clarity, I’m happy to remove it. That doesn’t change my lifelong commitment to public ability—a principle I believe remains one of the strongest levers for a better society.

Twitter, for all its promise, has sadly become a poisoned well—where anonymity, monetized virality, and troll farms work together to tear down honest voices and raise toxicity.

My hope for younger Nigerians is to resist the harmful stereotypes that shrink their worldview and undermine their potential. I have been shaped by friendships and from people across faiths, races, and genders.

What I long for is a civic culture where people respect differing views, hold government able through facts and data, and collectively build a country where everyone can thrive.

If you don’t follow my work in BudgIT, Tracka, or Ogbomoso but choose to show up with vile commentary, chances are you’ve already been muted or blocked. These are not acts of malice—they’re simply boundaries.

Wishing you clarity, growth, and peace.
—Oluseun

As a business man if there is a space you should avoid is the political space. (that is if you can)
Because making public statement against or for a political party or individual will definitely come back to affect your business either positive or negatively.

So next time watch what you say. when you say it and how you say it.

Can't u see with their IGR's poverty is infecting them like Syphilis.

They don't know anything about HDI.

Human development Index is the magic behind the successes recorded in Igbo land and not taxation such as IGR.

Igbos ...... concentrated on HDI
Yorubas .......taxation
Hausa...........no HDI no taxation hence their extreme poverty.

The guy is nothing but a tribal bigot with no honor. Why delete it? Leave it if you were wrong accept you are wrong and move on. Others will learn from it, stop being a hypocritical tribal bigot.

I am sure if the idiot wakes up one day and FG has removed one of those reports he has been masturbating on, he will be the first to drag them through twitter.

Seun is just a lowlife coward and hypocrite. So much words and still nothing sensible said. If you have such a nasty opinion about the performance of Peter Obi in 2014 at the end of his tenure, what exactly changed your opinion about him in 2023? How did he move from the useless governor that you claimed he was in 2014 to the only messiah that can save Nigeria in 2023?

Part of the problem with this generation is folks who think they are beyond questioning. Folks who don’t want to take responsibility for anything. Once evidence of their hypocrisy and double speak is exposed, they rush to delete tweets and then carry on hypocritically like nothing happened. No honor, no integrity. Typical Obidient.

It seems headless mob are always coming for Seun on Twitter. Like our own Seun too, he also folded. Leave those tweets, stay by your truth and let the nattering nitwits run mad, block them and their fathers on your page, that's how Reno deals with them. Nobody should come to your page to bully you, send them to their parents for home training. There's nothing you said about Peter Obi that's not true. The Obidients said even worse about him in 2013, they insulted and cussed him out, the facts and records of their past comments about Peter Obi are all out there. It's time the national assembly ed the social media bill to check this madness.


PS - I learnt he's an Obidient... Toh grin grin


-Kiss the truth!

Personally for me I think change is inevitable! He now sees the light at the end of the tunnel now. Moral lesson, not all that glitters is gold. Only few can relate.

It doesn't have to be so. There should be some level of freedom of expression.

He ended up saying nothing.
He should have mentioned the issue directly and not in proverbs, so to speak.
