What if Peter Obi got "settled" with a cool β¦100 billion, took his wife, his family, and japa'd?
It sounds absurd until you remember that buying silence is the Tinubu administration's most reliable tool of governance. At the highest levels, one question refuses to die: how much will it take to make Obi take the money and abandon the hope he has given millions of Nigerians?
Last year, I voted for the first time as a Canadian citizen. I took my two older kids with me. We were done in under 20 minutes, then went about our day. On the way out, my son asked if I had ever voted in Nigeria, and what it was like. I paused. The contrast was stark. No thugs. No ballot box snatching. No suffocating military presence. No curfew. Just people exercising a right, cleanly and calmly.
Why can't we have that? Why can't voting be simple? Why can't we have a president who insists on doing things right, so the next generation has something worth emulating?
Peter Obi is the closest answer Nigeria has produced to that question, which is precisely why they will not leave him alone.
Over the past few weeks I have been asking myself what Peter Obi has actually done to deserve this level of coordinated attack, from the Tinubu administration, their apologists, and the Atiku camp alike. What exactly is his crime? The answer, increasingly, appears to be this: they cannot pin one on him, so the strategy has shifted. Make him look like the rest. Blur the lines. Muddy the water. Convince Nigerians there is nothing worth believing in. And when all else fails, blame Obi's proposals for Tinubu's failures, as though the suffering Nigerians endure daily is somehow his fault.
What we are witnessing is a fierce battle for the soul of this nation. You cannot sit on the fence. Choosing not to decide is itself a decision.
Nigeria needs us. All of us. Speak up. Engage. Be a light. Let us not despair. The more light we bring, the less room darkness has to breathe.

@jon_d_doe And he should not accept her back after she's done with her hoe face.
When they go and see that there is nothing in the street, they tend to come back and beg for forgiveness and the men tend to forgive easily.
@instablog9ja Did he also slash his salary and those working directly under him?
Can his kids manage the same money he pays those sweepers?
Nigeria is a crime scene.
@ruffydfire Ghana and other smaller countries have gone to pick their people, but trust the self-acclaimed giant of Africa to be nonchalant about its people.
Shame!
