“I decided not to buy a car and saved the money to acquire a property. Today, this is my fourth private jet that I’m flying… I wouldn’t have been a billionaire without God” — Nigerian Billionaire Tony Elumelu
"In 1987, American Express introduced platinum card for 5000 people, here is mine, they later introduced the Black card (Centurion card) in 1999 for 1000 people on the planet, here is mine. I had a viable business and while I don't regret going into Politics, it made me poorer." - Peter Obi, NDC Presidential Candidate.

Dear Chinedu @GRVlagos
I have no interest in descending into the mudslinging and distractions you appear to thrive on. My focus remains on the important work before us - supporting the efforts of the Lagos State Government to ensure the safety, well-being, and prosperity of Lagosians.
If being committed to public service, good governance, and the protection of the interests and heritage of Lagosians is what you choose to describe as bigotry, then I make NO APOLOGIES for standing firmly by those principles. Public service is not a tea party - but how can you know what it entails? Nemo dat quod non habet.
For the sake of clarity, I would advise you, in your saner moments, to acquaint yourself with my record in public service - from my appointment as Special Adviser on Education to Mr. Governor in 2019 to my present tour of duty at the Ministry of Environment and Water Resources. The record is public, and it speaks for itself.
As for the labels and accusations, I will leave others to judge them on their merits. I have no intention of engaging in personal attacks or trading insults with a political nomad driven by ignorance and needless hatred.
I wish you all the best.

I like the way everyone is interrogating Obi's podcast, that's what and how it should be.
That's the reason why we aren't moving away from stuffs like this from this egocentric dullard.
"Kano! I didn't come to campaign. I just want to dance."
You didn't have a problem with it. In fact, you voted the man.
But you have standards for how Peter Obi's interview responses should be.
I know what you are.
“In my lifetime in Nigeria, I have never seen a Nigerian politician come out and say that, as a former governor, he left money behind, built over 800 kilometers of roads, elevated his state’s education from last to top, and since leaving office has not taken a pension or any benefits attached to being a former governor.
Or that the reason he was impeached was because he refused to pad a budget that was supposed to be used for renovations. Something they wanted to do for billions of naira, he did for less than ₦400 million.
To top it off, neither the ruling party that has a record of intimidating and blackmailing their opponents with their looting/corruption records, nor the EFCC, one of the most biased & corrupt institutions in Nigeria, has found anything significant to use against him. I have never seen such a leader in Nigerian history.”
His name is Peter Obi‼️
Children are not a liability. It is disordered self-love that deceives us to think having children is undesirable.
Hardly is there any greater blessing than to have and raise eternal souls carrying God’s image who will glorify God and enjoy Him forever.
Have as many children as you have physical energy to train in the way of the Lord.
@mazibayo Prosperity gospel made it about positive thinking or manifesting success. Rather, it is a warning that a person's inner thoughts & motives reveal who they truly are, regardless of what they say outwardly. It was directly referring to a stingy person who doesn't want to share.
One year ago, Fulani Islamic terrorists stormed Yelwata, Nigeria, slaughtering more than 200 Christians.
Most were women and children sheltering at a local Catholic mission.
Today, we remember the martyrs. The world must not forget the Christian genocide in Nigeria.
