Who do I blame? South East leadership
The President is simply getting an easy ride, infrastructure-wise, because the SW Governors (except 2) are more focused on being called good boys by Abuja than doing the critical work of creating deep, lasting wealth in the SE
How can you all be endorsing a President who has not laid a centimetre of standard rail or connected the local SE market to gas?
Are you all that cheap? At least make him work for the votes you have told him you will get
N20 trillion, what did you get? Face cap and T-shirt
You take FAAC and develop ONLY one region;
When these are pointed out with facts and figures, you call everyone a tribalist and a crybaby. Buhari did this nepotism, but Tinubu has taken this to a whole new level.
I remind you that N20 trillion, TWENTY TRILLION NAIRA, was the total resources available to the FGN from the removal of the PMS Subsidy, yet the ONLY expressway from the SW to the SE of Nigeria is a shithole as you head East.
I have not asked that other ports and airports be stopped; I have asked that FAAC be shared proportionally, so the economy as a WHOLE can grow. You cant go to the gym and exercise only one arm; that's madness
I hate Federal Character; I hate FAAC, but if you are not going to implement Federal Character, then scrap it. Scrap exclusive lists, distribute FAAC in USD as earned, and allow States the power to negotiate projects with international partners.
Why should some States BEG the FGN for Federal support for critical infrastructure, and the same President sit and give a press conference derisking another State infrastructure Project?
Is he not President of ALL STATES IN NIGERIA?
SS people.
You will never fully utilise Onne Port and Ibom deep sea port if you give APC power in 2027.
Your best bet is an Igbo Man who understands the need for the South South port.
If you think I'm lying ask @GEJonathan
A new Port in Ogun is an insult to the Niger Delta.
Tinubu to Nigerians- “don’t vote for me if I don’t give you electricity”.
Tinubu to Akwaibomites- I will give you Ibom deep sea port.
None of these promises have been fulfilled. These two reasons are enough to make every AkwaIbom indigene to vote against APC.
They interviewed Wike, topic was Peter Obi, interview all Tinubu’s spokes men and ambassadors, its Peter Obi, interview state governors, its Peter Obi, interview ministers, its Peter Obi, now interview Peter Obi, its about how to make Nigeria better, he is not even President, when you are big, you are BIG forget.
Anambra Debt: I Stand by My Statement, Peter Obi Left $155m in Three Banks — Otti
In a piece I wrote over six years ago titled "Prudence Over Profligacy," I demonstrated, using the balance Peter Obi left in Anambra, that it is still possible to be prudent in government. As CEO of the bank at that time, I advised Peter Obi to leave the money in dollars, not naira. The Soludo administration’s allegations do not invalidate what I wrote nor the credit he left behind. If otherwise, the Anambra State Government should publish the debts.

Yesterday, mhen! Sometimes, as a young person, even when you’re tired, you can’t afford to slow down because right behind you is a 65-year-old man still running, regardless of how tedious the day has been. Don’t mind my torn jacket. Perks of the job💀. New Nigeria no easy😑
I am surprised to see a statement from @atiku and @ADCNig campaign team including my name as a member of former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar’s policy team for the 2027 presidential campaign.
For the record:
1. I was not consulted and did not give my consent to my name being published as a member of the ADC candidate’s policy team.
2. I am NOT, in fact a member of Atiku’s policy team, even unofficially or in any advisory capacity.
3. I have quit partisan politics in Nigeria since 2022. I have maintained, and continue to maintain, my non-partisan posture in our country’s national affairs. I am not a member or sympathizer of any political party in Nigeria.
4. My primary engagement is as President of @IGETAfrica , a non-partisan public policy think tank and executive education academy, and as CEO of Sogato Strategies, a geopolitical risk and regulatory strategy advisory firm.
5. I remain committed to my country, Nigeria and its progress, but such commitment does not have to entail ANY partisan alignment. I have adopted the path of statesmanship, not partisanship.

“Look at the substandard road they just constructed for us here in Umunze, Anambra State.”
— Man calls the attention of Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, to the condition of the newly constructed road.
By this time 2022, the conversation was how to penetrate the North! Today, the North has not only accepted Peter Obi but taken ownership of him and you are focused on people who told you that you were just 4 people tweeting in a room!
Please!!!!!!
Omo!!!!
Peter Obi carried a hard copy of his handover note with the amounts left in every bank.
LMAO
See the person Soludo wants to play dirty with. A former bank chairman.
😂😂😂
On the day I left office, I left more than US$150 million as the dollar component of my investment in Anambra State as governor. I hereby provide documents that can be verified with the various banks. Had it remained untouched, this investment was expected to provide Anambra State with approximately US$10 million in annual income.
Even if their assertion were accurate—which it is not—that Anambra owed US$123 million, the government could have used the US$10 million generated annually from my savings to reduce the debt. It has now been 13 years since I left office, which would amount to US$130 million. The debt should have been fully settled by now.
Had they retained the funds I left in the bank, including the compound interest on the principal and the additional income, the total would be approximately US$335 million today. If they had chosen to repay the US$92.35 million funding, the entire amount would have been covered, leaving approximately US$242 million to be reinvested. That sum would have generated about US$20 million annually for Anambra State.
Let me reiterate that, when I left office, I left Anambra State in a strong financial position—the strongest of any state in Nigeria—and I stand by that position.
Through this clarification, I wish to state categorically that I will neither engage nor trade words with anyone regarding my tenure in Anambra State. My focus will now be on issues affecting the suffering Nigerian masses, which is the reason for my presidential ambition.
A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO
I’m actually ashamed on behalf of Gov Soludo and his media team.
You are posting a document from 2024 as evidence?
A local champion leading a team of local people
They thought Kano people will abandon Kwankwaso for deputising Obi.
They thought the North will vilify him for joining forces with Obi.
They thought NDC is going to gain NO momentum.
They thought Atiku clock3d it with subsidy brouhaha.
Now they are all rattled 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
