It would've been best to compare Obi's speech to Tinubu not Shettima, Shettima is not APC presidential candidate, this is same way you guys packaged Buhari and Osibanjo, they ended up messing Nigeria economy, Nigeria economy is nose diving with huge debt, Nigeria don't need wasteful Tinubu, no time for Owambe at this time of our fragile economy, no time for rascality , look at Lagos State debt almost half of all the sates in Nigeria, Lagos is the smallest State by landmass, with the huge IGR and federal allocation still little to show, Nigeria at this this stage need Obi with frugal nature to manage our resources, he has been tested and trusted, he has the capacity, the wisdom to change Nigeria bad economy to flourish, before he became governor in Anambra, Anambra State economy was in total mess, he did all his projects without borrowing, cleared all backlogs of salaries, pensions and gratuities by previous administrations, invested for the state and save #75 billion for his successor, reduced Anambra State debt to the lowest in the country,Obi has the capacity.

Like the way he picked Buhari I guess.

….like the way he picked Osinbajo, Fashola, Sanwo-Olu, Gbajabiamila, Shettima and sooo many others!!

Exactly the same way they packaged Buhari before 2015 presidential election, they were sending Prof Osibanjo for intellectual functions, while covering Buhari, they've started again,
It would've been best to compare Obi's speech to Tinubu at NBA conference held yesterday, Shettima is not APC presidential candidate, this is same way they packaged Buhari and Osibanjo, they ended up messing Nigeria economy up with huge debt,
insecurity and what have you, APC are in charge not opposition, I wonder solution Shettima have for insecurity that he couldn't show to their leader Buhari?
What economy solution do Tinubu have that he couldn't relate with Buhari?
Most of the incompetent ministers and head of agencies it was Tinubu's recommendations to Buhari, like former minister of finance, it was Tinubu that recommended former FIRS boss that stole Nigeria dry, Fashola was ministers of power for four years without tangible achievement in power sector, these are Tinubu's men.
Tinubu largely contributed to Nigeria mess, Nigeria economy is nose diving with huge debt, Nigeria at this time doesn't need wasteful Tinubu, no time for Owambe party at this critical time of our fragile economy, no time for rascality.
Look at Lagos State debt almost half of all the sates in Nigeria and no hope of reducing, Lagos is the smallest State by landmass, with the huge IGR and federal allocation still little to show.
Nigeria at this this stage need Obi with frugal nature to manage our resources, he has been tested and trusted, he has the capacity, the wisdom to change Nigeria bad economy to flourish, before he became governor in Anambra, Anambra State economy was in total mess, he did all his projects without borrowing, cleared all backlogs of salaries, pensions and gratuities by previous administrations, invested for the state and save #75 billion for his successor, reduced Anambra State debt to the lowest in the

If i say Washington is a home and Abuja is not a home. Does that really mean Abuja is not a home? Learn to live above your emotions.

There are poor and rich Nigerians in Awka and Lagos. Nigerians have equally made comfortable homes in both Awka and Lagos. That one man said one is a home and the other is not doesn't change the truth.

Rather, you should more be concerned about the salient points he raised.

According to him, Lagos generates about 81B naira as IGR every year. What has the Government been able to do with this huge resources should be the concern of any sensible individual.

He also mentioned capacity and competence. How do you really gauge this in an individual? Is it by accepting the falsehood or half-truth propagated by paid promoters like the case of Buhari or putting the claims to scrutiny?

So far, we have not been able to interview the man that claimed to have the capacity and competence to lead us. This NBA platform would have been an opportunity to do this. For reasons best known to him and his handlers, he chose not to prove his doubters wrong.

The last time we heard him profer solutions to our challenges, he mentioned recruiting 50 million youths into the army and feeding them with "agbado" and cassava. He also said Nigerians should not be bothered about the skyrocketing exchange rate of the dollar to the naira since salaries are paid in naira. These are not what we get from capacity and competence.

Shettima also raised the issue of good leadership. That is to say the present APC government has failed. A sane person will not have anything to do with the APC considering the untold hardship, hunger and insecurity that have bedeviled Nigeria under their watch. Is Shettima telling us to reward the APC for causing so much hardship?

The salient point Shettima raised are the reasons why the APC should not come close to power again.

Shikena. Oro pe si je o, Oro di hunn, you're on point, no be those idiots wey dey come here type rubbish, I hope we get it right next year, cause my fear is that the we the Youths are gullible, with shikini money, most Youth will sell his/her future, and they will come back to Nairaland to complain, insult and raise dust, it is well.

They said yesterday that this man did not speak yesterday. I was shocked knowing his oratory power and intelligence. Now, I have seen this video.

Realist12:
I said it, Shettima is a very intelligent person and he was presented to showcase his intellectual qualities to the south . I weep for the social media youths who ignored all the important points he made and started trending his outfit, yet those are the ones supporting Obi saying Obi is intelligent. You can't compare this speech with Obi.
One important point I'd pick from his speech is Tinubu understands the Nigerian psychology , and we all can see how he used this knowledge to turn around Lagos and make political progress.
Tinubu scored a good political point with Shettima today . Coz Shettima flawed both Obi and Atiku.

Shettima is a very intelligent person? Do you know that in normal climes, APC should have been disqualified? What Shettima did was to campaign for their ticket. Meanwhile, campaigns have not started.

Have you seen PO in any of his speeches recently say vote for me?

You are just as daft as the persons you support.

ceeceeco:
Aboki remains aboki, just imagine the way he pronounces words. This man can never be a vice president, he lacks the quality & leadership style.

Clown. You must have not watched the video, Shettima beats Obi hands down with facts and accurate stats. Obi is a dull

He came to campaign for His boss....Is this his Speech...He couldn't even highlight any challenges of our present day Nigeria......with or without Tinubu..Lagos state will still be where it is....

mamdanju:
Best speech so far at the NBA conference even better than the chimamanda presentation. Very brilliant.

You lie

Zorn:
And how is that a fact that Shettima said obi called Lagos a home and not akwa? Shettima thinks this is a primary school debate.

He govern Anambra why nor turn it to a state he can live and call home ? He can't call Awka home but can invest Anambra money in his family business...

Is Lagos contributing 75% VAT actually ?

Is it true that Lagos has only one Ambulance in 1999 before Tinubu came ? - Jakande and co did nothing ?

Is it true that Lagos is the 3rd largest Economy in Africa ?

Abeg fact check

No calming down for my end, guy. You can choose to calm down, it's gentlemanly. But here, na vawulence. I am just reacting to the several insults and threats I have gotten from these minions. Let me do it the way I was thought by them. Thank you!

Great speech, they are all talking about his suit, not his intelligence. SMH

That's the absurd level of pettiness some Nigerians have sunk to.

That's why politicians don't take them serious.

The funniest thing about all these noise is that these people forgot that Lagos was the Federal Capital Territory for decades before it was moved to Abuja. Most things you hear about Lagos were built with Federal funds. How idiotic will it be for any man to come and claim that he built Abuja if FCT is moved to another location?

But it gets worse. When you hear the mention of Lagos, one may think they are talking about Dubai. Lagos? Can Tinubu/Shettima tell Nigerians how they will move Nigeria forward instead of repeating the same silly promises they made in 2015 that went unfulfilled. With everything that went wrong in Buhari's administration, it was only a few months to the purchase of Expression of Interest form that Tinubu found his voice. Who is deceiving who?

Like I asked before, "What are these good works that Buhari did since 2015 that Tinubu wants to continue?" The economy is comatose. Insecurity is high. Unemployment is extremely high. Nigeria is on autopilot. And to cap it all, Tinubu is rickety and way pass his prime.

Peter Obi is from Anambra and calls Lagos his home. Tinubu is from Osun and calls Lagos his home. Atiku is from Adamawa and calls Dubai his home. He who seeks equity must come with clean hands.

Where is obis speech?

Where yiur bulkt proofs or lie proofs to listen to him

To be candid,one of the indices of selecting a good leader or a staff is to check his/her past records achievement(s) in any of the enderveour he/she ventured into in the past.

TONYE001:
In my opinion, this speech cannot be compared to that of PO.

This man and his principal brought us to the sorry state we are in today. Yet, they are asking us to vote for them?

What's the logic here?

It's high time we tried something new. We must move away from this stale PDP-APC mixture and begin to consider a new alternative, like the LP and PO.

Compare Lagos and Anambra then let’s compare structures in Borno and Anambra from schools and roads

DaddyFreeze2020:
"Restructuring my Foot. To hell with Restructuring"
-Kashim Shettima.

Kashim Shettima always looks angry in his speeches, using the same tonation of Islamic terrorist. That aggressive tone has nothing to do with his mother tongue/pronunciations.

Even mr Peter obi called Lagos home and not Awka ... says Shettima

ImperialYoruba:


Obi's opportunity to face Tinubu is coming.

On this outing though, Tinubu wanted to make a statement and show that Obi is not prime asset for the office of Presidency. He has achieved that goal and Shettima has shown us that the VP of Tinubu is more brilliant and an asset far above Presidential candidate Obi.

Admit defeat. But get your candidate polished for public speaking. When he debates Tinubu international media will be there. All that charade with kneeling and gallivanting up and down stage will not count towards points in the debate. Get him thoroughly polished and ready, he is coming into the bullpen to face the Titan of Nigerian politics.

Will Tinubu come for presidential debate to meet Obi one and one ? Because he no fit send anymore to represent him.

See them praising shettima. Because they know their oga has nothing to suffer that's why he run away.

It doesn't end there. We are waiting for Asiwaju in presidential debate. He won't send shettima to there.

Atiku,obi and shettima are contesting.

Tinubu made Lagos conducive for the NBA to hold it's 62nd Annual Conference.
Atiku and Obi failed to transform Adamawa and Anambra.

fredoooooo:

He govern governed Anambra why nor turn it to a state he can live and call home ? He can't call Awka home but can invest Anambra money in his family business...

Which of his family business ? You have been hearing him saying he lives in Onitsha, go very if it's true or not. And which of his family business did he invest public funds in?

What did the APC deliver in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 if COVID 19 is your excuse?

Saudi Aramco's net income climbed to $48.4bn in the second quarter, up from $25.5bn in 2021. Why is COVID 19 not affecting it? What did your NNPC post?

It is difficult to defend lies and incompetence.

Peter Obi should also call Abuja his home. It was built with a commonwealth fund. Why did Tinubu leave his home state Osun to migrate to Lagos?
