Peter Obi Bandwagon is Fake and PDP Should Not Buy His Propaganda Game.
By eeetuk

Peter Obi is irrelevant in Nigeria politics. His choice by Atiku Abubakar in 2019 handed President Buhari his re-election victory. Mr. Atiku Abubakar was going to win Southeast whether peter Obi was on the ticket or not. But for the wrong advice by Ibos, he selected Mr. Obi as his running mate—resulting in a blowout loss to President Buhari. If Atiku Abubakar picked Ibo man or woman as his running mate for 2023 presidential election, he will meet the same faith like last time—a blowout defeat. I have history on my side to back up my position here. And for that, look this picture:
1)In 2003, Mohammadu Buhari and Chuba Okadigbo presidential ticket vs OBJ resulted a blowout loss to OBJ. And in fact, that ticket only got 5% of total votes in general election
2) in 2011, Mohammadu Buhari and Edwin Ume Ezeeoke presidential ticket vs Goodluck Jonathan ticket resulted in a blowout loss, getting only 18 % of general election votes
3) in 2019, Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi vs Mohammadu Buhari lost in a blowout.again.

Atiku Abubakar problem
Mr. Atiku Abubakar problem is he does not listen.
One of the problems that has made Atiku Abubakar unable to win presidential election in Nigeria, he pays too much attention to Ibos propaganda---a claim that only Ibos can solve this or that problems. It is a big lie.

What is the success story in Southeast—which can be used to rebuild Nigeria? I am yet to see one.
And to the contrary, it is the opposite. Southeast is a disaster.

Since the Nigerian civil war ended in 1970, Ibos have made foreign import their main priority. The situation got worser after President Obasanjo appointed Ngozi Iweala as Nigerian finance minister in 2003. The problem with the appointment of Ngozi Iweala was she gave over 80% of import licenses to Ibos. And as a result, Southeast states government abandoned building roads, developing land, building bridges and investing in infrastructures development in favor of import. Import is the number one job killer. Import puts money in the hands of importer—leaving the rest of citizens very poor. That is why Nigeria has a widen gap between rich and poor. And in fact, the United Nations has long said that the widen gap between rich and poor in Nigeria is alarming—urging the Nigerian government to do something to close the gap.

Today, Southeast is deserted. Ibos have migrated from Southeast to Lagos, Abuja, and many states in South/south in search of better lives. The principal cause here is the rising import business in Southeast geopolitical zone.

Peter Obi bandwagon!
Peter Obi was Atiku Abubakar running mate in 2019 presidential election against President Mohammadu Buhari—a ticket which lost in a blowout. Today, Peter Obi is no longer in PDP. He left PDP after he found out, he has no chance of picking PDP presidential ticket to represent the party in 2023 presidential election. According to report, Mr. Peter Obi is flying Labor Party presidential ticket for 2023 presidential election.

So, I am looking at the entire map of Nigeria below, and I am asking myself this question: where can Peter Obi win a state?

The honest answer is none. Mark my word, Peter Obi will not win a single state in Nigeria and that includes Southeast. Southeast is not for one ibo man. The zone is for over 20 million people. So, when election time comes, Ibos are going to choose between their pocket book issues and Peter Obi presidential ticket. By pocket book issues---I mean how Ibos are going to pay rent, put food on the table for family, day in and out, helping their kids go to schools, buying clothes to wear and more. For these reasons, Ibos are going to vote PDP over Peter Obi because PDP victory in 2023 will address pocket book issues for most Ibos.

The southwest will never vote for a ticket—which has Ibo man or woman as its presidential candidate or running mate. Same is true for South/South and the entire Northern Nigeria states.

So, my humble advice to Mr. Atiku Abubakar, don’t pick me as your running mate. Pick some one outside Southeast. Do you hear me?

Fellow Nigerians, what is your view?

PETER OBI IS NOT AN IGBO PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE.

It is infinitely wrong to look at PETER OBI as an IGBO presidential candidate. I will tell u why.

When u drive ur car to a mechanic workshop, u do not worry about d tribe of the mechanic especially so, if u are assured of his competence. When u go to a hospital for an important surgery, u do not worry that the team of medical experts are not drawn from ur tribe, u want to live and whoever will give ur health the needed boost is welcome.

Hunger has no tribe. And, hunger has no religion.

Poverty has no tribe. And, poverty has no religion.

Acute sickness has no tribe. And, acute sickness has no religion.

Today, Nigerians are hungry, poor and sick. The majority of Nigerians are below d poverty line. Many have no access to good medicare. These issues cut across all tribes and cultures.

How do we solve the problem? How do we arrest the steady descent into hunger, poverty and sickness? Do we vote for the person who will likely win or do we vote to change the narrative? If u vote for the person who will likely win, but whom u know will not deliver, that makes u PUBLIC ENEMY NUMBER ONE because u are joining hands with our oppressors.

We must vote to change the narrative.

Just as u don't ask if the mechanic is from ur village or if the doctor is of ur tribe, we would not look at PETER OBI as an Igbo; we look at him as the mechanic who will put our economy in perfect shape, we look at him as the doctor who will rescue our economy from imminent and fatal collapse.

If u are not happy that no serious effort is being made to make our educational system functional and effective in the new era, then vote PETER OBI.
If u are not happy that we are borrowing to service debts and to fuel consumption then vote PETER OBI.
If u are not happy that most youths are unemployed and unemployable then vote for PETER OBI.
If u are not happy about the epileptic nature of electricity then vote for PETER OBI.

The question u must answer is: would u allow ur beautiful car to remain unusable because d mechanic is Igbo? Or, would u rather die than allow an Igbo expert to take care of our health?
Do u hate yourself that much, to allow poverty to destroy ur children when there is a genuine and legitimate way out through PETER OBI?

All youths must act now.

This is d last month for getting the PVC. We, the youths demonstrated in Lekki. What happened? They sent soldiers to kill us. The time has come for us to get involved in a way that they cannot kill us. Get ur PVC and get ready to flush these parasites in our nation away. We cannot miss this golden opportunity.

Let the youths arise!
Nigerians must reclaim their land.

Same propaganda all over again
It worked in 2015 not any more
We wiser now
Tinubu should be in bed .

Peter Obi as VP candidate ensure that PDP/Atiku had almost 12 million votes in 2019 even after clear mass thumb printing and rigging in the NW and core north, a number they would have banked on and capitalized for more votes in the north since buhari is now out of the way and Atiku is northerner himself.

Pushing out Peter Obi from PDP has ensured that the 12 million votes are no longer intact, they only thing that may save him is picking a SE VP.

FUNDAMENTAL ACHIEVEMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF ANAMBRA STATE (PARTIAL LISTING)

1. Anambra was the first State to commence Sub-Sovereign Wealth savings, the first of its kind in Sub-Saharan Africa. At a time many other Governors were leaving huge debts, I left the equivalent of $500 million Dollars in investment as well as local and foreign currency, including $156 million in Dollar-denominated bonds.

2. For the first time in the history of Anambra State, Ambassadors and High Commissioners of notable countries such as United Stated, Britain, Russia, European Union, South Africa, Belgium, Israel, the Netherlands, Canada, among others, visited the State. Before my tenure, Anambra was practically a pariah state blacklisted by the Diplomatic Corps and international development partners.

3. Development partners such as UNDP, UNICEF, the World Bank, DFID, the European Union etc., which hitherto were not in Anambra State started working with the State. Anambra was consistently adjudged one of the best states in development partnership and commitment to reforms for good governance.

4. He was recognised as Best Governor by the Millennium Development Goals Office (OSSAP-MDGs) and the UNDP in the implementation of their programmes in Nigeria.

5. The Nigerian Debt Management Office (DMO) rated Anambra as the least indebted state in Nigeria. In spite of visible and measurable achievements recorded in various sectors, the State under him did not borrow or raise bonds for her various projects.

6. The Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria rated Anambra State as the most financially stable state in the country.

7. The State's ground-breaking return of schools to their original owners - Voluntary Agencies (Churches) on 1st January 2009, and subsequent partnership with the Agencies in Education, saw the State move from 24th position out of 36 States to Number One in National Examination Council (NECO) and West African Examination Council (WAEC) examinations for three consecutive years. This made the World Bank to commission a study, led by the renowned Prof. Paul Collier of Oxford University, on this revolutionary partnership and phenomenal achievement.

8. The State also entered into strategic partnership with the Churches in the Health sector. This symbiotic relationship resulted in a tremendous boost to health care because of the services offered by health institutions owned by Voluntary Agencies, while the State restored grants to the agencies and made available to them more than 50 million Dollars in various types of support.

10. Through partnership with the Church in the Health sector, his Government funded the transformation of -:

a: Iyienu Hospital, Ogidi;
b: Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, Ihiala;
c: St Charles Borromeo Hospital, Onitsha;
d: Holy Rosary Hospital, Waterside, Onitsha; and
e: St. Joseph Hospital, Adazi-Nnukwu.
His Government also built the Joseph Nwilo Heart Centre in St. Joseph, Adazi-Nnukwu, where heart operations are now being performed.

11. His Government won the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (1 Million dollars) as the best-performing state in immunisation in the South-East. With complementary funding from our Government, they used the money to build 10 Maternal and Child Care Centres across the State, particularly in rural communities, in partnership with the Churches.

12. The State was the first to procure and distribute more than 30,000 computers to secondary schools, including 22,500 from HP. The Managing Director for Personal Systems Group HP Inc, Mr. FabriceCampoy described the deployment as the biggest of such projects in the Middle-East and Africa.

13. Anambra State Government provided Microsoft Academies to more than 500 secondary schools, which the Head of Microsoft in Nigeria (Mr. Ken Span) described as the biggest such deployment in Africa so far.

14. The State provided Internet access to more than 500 secondary schools, which the CEO of Galaxy Backbone (Mr. Gerald Ilukwe) characterized as incomparable to any in the country.

15. More than 700 buses were provided to secondary schools in the State by our Government.

16. Boreholes were provided in schools all over the State.

17. Numerous classrooms were built in all the 177 communities of the State.

18 As part of the efforts to turn around the economy of the State, a number of companies were attracted to build their facilities in the Anambra State. A case in point is SABMiller, the 2nd largest brewery in the world, which built their first Green Field facility in the State, which is today one of the most successful facilities they operate globally.

19. A number of other companies followed the SABMiller initiative and were all supported and encouraged under our Government; a good example is INNOSON Motor Manufacturing Company, from which our government bought more than 1,000 vehicles.

20. Anambra State for the first time started close collaboration with recognized government security agencies (the Police, Army, Navy, Department of State Security, Civil Defence, among others), offering them various types of support including provision of more than 500 security vehicles. The improvement in security was phenomenal, such that the former IG of Police (Abubakar Mohammed) lauded Anambra State for not witnessing any bank robbery in my last three years in office.

21. To further enhance security, Anambra State provided at least one security vehicle to each of all the 177 communities in the State as well as various organizations such as markets and Churches.

22. His Administration conceived and built, from scratch, the first state-owned Teaching Hospital, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu teaching Hospital, Awka.

23. His Government commenced the planned development of the Igbariam Campus of the ChukwuemekaOdumegwu-Ojukwu University, including the fencing, construction of internal roads, electrification, construction of the Faculty of Law, Auditorium, Administrative Block, Faculty of Agriculture, Management Building, among others).

24. His Government attracted the World Bank support on erosion - National Erosion and Watershed Management Project (NEWMAP) - to Anambra State.

25. His Government was the first to do Poverty Mapping in Nigeria, as a guide for the effective implementation of our poverty-alleviation strategies.

26 His Government, for the first time, undertook the aerial mapping of Awka as well as the production of Structure Plans for Awka Capital Territory, Onitsha and Nnewi.

27. During his tenure and with his Government's support, Anambra State became an oil producing State.

28. He built the first Secretariat Complex to house State Government Ministries that were hitherto scattered around the State.

29. His government commenced the development of the 'Three Arms Zone' comprising Government House/Governor’s Lodge, Legislative Building/Speakers Residence, and Judiciary Building with Chief Judge’s Residence.

30. By the end of his tenure in 2014, more than twelve (12) health institutions, including two hospitals, had secured accreditation; when we took off in 2006, no health institution in Anambra State was duly accredited.

31. Anambra State was the first to undergo national peer review, which scrutinised State Governments for good governance, through the State Peer Review Mechanism (SPRM), an initiative of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum in collaboration with the DFID.

You and I are asking the questions and looking for similar solutions--based on the questions you asked above. But the problem is Peter Obi is not the right person to address these problems. He keeps running from one party to another every year. Nonsense. That shows he is not a steady person. Helping Atiku Abubakar to win in 2023 is the solution. Ibos need good roads in their communities. Ibos need good paying jobs to send their kids to schools, pay rent, put food on the table for families. I think Atiku Abubakar victory in 2023 will address all these needs than a definite defeat currently undertaking by peter Obi.
