I took my time to dispassionately watched the first round of town hall presidential debate organized by Arise TV, and sincerely my expectations or optimism were dashed.
I wasn't really looking out for eloquence of speech or their oratory prowess but the know-how or an idea driven solution to the many problems that has bewildered our nation and deemed our ray of hope.
Albeit Bola Ahmed Tinubu who was absent and has no representation and Atiku Abubakar who was well represented by his running mate Gov. Okowa( maybe he has a different idea from his VP), every other front line presidential candidate I've expected were there.
Permit me to own up that I was actually keen on listening to Mr. Peter Obi the LP candidate. The much rated presidential candidate on sm & the 'messiah' among crooks to some of my friends.
After listening to his proposals on security & economy with the follow up of questions and answers session, I cringed in my frustration that Nigerians will be in for a long ride if this person is our seemingly 'messiah'.
Obi's idea about the economy is not only shallow and sterile but orthodox, theoretical, insensitive of the 'Nigeria factors' and more importantly our growth rate will be very slow to say the least. In fact Obi proffers no idea that was outside the box or norm, nor technologically driven. He spoke like a typical hustling trader trying to convince a customer to buy from him.
In his economic proposal he highlighted the issue of SME, cultivating the vast arable land in the north, youth employment etc without specific solution drive. Most painfully that his idea does not envisaged sabotage by civil servants and politicians which has been the major clog in the wheel to govt policies and programmes.
If Obi is giving the mandate to drive the nation economy, I bet it'll take him third term to make any meaningful impact.
In all honesty, Obi sounds like someone who is not much aware and prepared, but wants to fill in the gap for the yearning of new Nigeria by frustrated Nigerians.
However, in my opinion Obi is not a bad candidate per say but not the right candidate for the now. We need someone like him when we have gain economic stability to an extent. What we need now is an aggressive thinker, builder and organizer of resourcefulness & tactfulness at this time for survival.
Verdict on other participants:
I was greatly impressed by Kwankwaso as he spoke intelligently like an experienced driver even though his ideas were equally Orthodox but practical. Whoever wins should pls engage Kwankwaso.
Gov. Okowa is a smart naive man with current knowledge. I however doubt his ability to drive the economy, although he won't be the main man.
Kola Abiola is passionate and equipped with untested knowledge. He can make a good special adviser as he lacks the experience and right knowledge. He's equally not aware and prepared for the office of the president.
I am sorry sir... An opinion... your opinion.. does not sway any other opinion...
I think the problem here is... you Lack comprehension...your god and saviour Thief'nubu was absent and you can't understand why the crook was not there, even if your life depends on it while you are here giving your paid bitter opinion on someone who graced the debate... ..A merchant for APCshit & Thief'nubu you are...
Your opinion will never be thesame if you were not corrupt.. Who do you think you are fooling.. only just you and your likes...

Anyhow sha.
Can we talk about these specific people individually, Aufbauh?
Are you up for it? I am interested in having this conversation with you as I want to learn.
Let's start with RMK first.
Can you go a little bit more into what he said in particular that impressed you and made you conclude that he's an experienced driver who is practical?
And inspite of your glowing admiration for him, why did you say, "whoever wins?"
If Obi is out, RMK is out, Abiola isn't it, please, whose ideas is more "unorthodoxically practical" that you can be sold on?
Who can give us that economic stability you mentioned?
Y'all have been playing this offensive for way too long.
"However, in my opinion Obi is not a bad candidate per say but not the right candidate for the now. We need someone like him when we have gain economic stability to an extent. What we need now is an aggressive thinker, builder and organizer of resourcefulness & tactfulness at this time for survival".
This is where you will be seriously attacked. For me it is only one person that will fill in that gap and which maybe Atiku but in your mind you maybe referring to Tinubu and i pray you are not.
One thing is getting clearer, though we may not like it and it is Tinubu winning the election at the long run. God forbid!

I was scrolling down and was convinced I would see Peter Obi .We had other candidates like kola,sowore,kwankwaso but Obi took the bulk of your insults and criticism.. You are a well known APC stalwart here and a tinubu urrchin and so your write up is baseless
LOL. Tinubu shunned a debate where he was supposed to be scrutinized and answer tough questions regarding his candidacy, his supporters were not worried about that, they watched the debate keenly, then came online to air their opinions about the candidates who honored the invitation.
I can't explain some mysteries, like being a Tinubu supporter at this time in our country's history
See the man here. They are paid by Tinubu to shape public opinion but they don't know that many Nigerians are angry about APC. Very soon, the mod will take it to front page
She knows, she just tossed some bait at him, kind of peep into his brain a little to see if there's something in it. Expose him a subtle way. Smart
2023: Presidential candidate to ban public officials from foreign schools, hospitals

Most of the time, the solution to our seemingly numerous problems is usually simple and basic but as Nigerians, we like to complicate issues for ourselves.
Peter Obi is telling you how he’s going to solve Nigeria’s problems but you think the solutions he’s proffering are too simplistic; you prefer it written in an Oxford Dictionary sized document before you can accept that the solution is finally technical enough for Nigeria’s problems.
Talking about Civil Service and Political sabotage, do you think those things are new to Peter Obi?
When Obi became governor, he was the only elected APGA official. He was everywhere surrounded by PDP men who hounded him like a common criminal; the civil servants were not any welcoming either, but he navigated through those things and left with his shoulders high.
Free your mind from primordial sentiments and you’d find out that you have nothing else on Peter Obi.

Maybe you should come out and contest for the seat so that we can vote for you... Because amongst the already existing Presidential candidates PO remains our best bet.
And small thing now, they will claim Tinubu is too much of a don and master strategist to stoop low to such events.
But after the events are finished, piam, they are out with their glasses and pens judging the participants.
God abeg.
I have seen two of these posts now.
Point of correction - NOT they will claim, it is a FACT. Your candidate is struggling to level up, he has shared the memo, read it. His primary objective is to share a stage with Tinubu than talking to his targeted audience. https://www.nairaland.com/7421620/okupe-obi-wont-attend-debates
This is one hell of a write up that is replete with criticism against obi. The op himself is an urchin and sense is not expected of him. He ended up shouting Peter Obi up and down while ignoring the fact that his criminally minded benefactor ran away from same debate he is attempting to smear Peter Obi with.
