“Ever Since I Was Born In My Lifetime In This 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 Pension Or Any Benefits Attached To Being a Former Governor. And Again, The Reason Why 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, The EFCC Of Nigeria, One Of The Smartest Security Agencies In The World, Has Not Found Anything Significant Against Peter Obi. I Have Never Seen Such a Leader In Nigerian History.”
“Before I became Governor, I was the chairman of Fidelity Bank, and Director of three different banks in Nigeria, and as of 1995, I was getting an overdraft of £1 million in England. There’s no other Nigerian who had such capacity in 1995. Politics made me poorer than I was”
— Peter Obi
Sam Amadi, it will never be well with you!
Develop your states.
Build Imo the way you dream of building Lagos. Turn Anambra and Abia into economic powerhouses that your children will be proud to govern. Stop teaching your people that the only success worth celebrating is the one achieved by capturing another man’s land.
That mindset is not ambition, it is parasitism dressed in political language.
Awon ole , olokanjuwa! @SamAmadi
Alhamdulillah!
The wedding events of my union, which has expanded our family under our beautiful Nupe customs and Islamic traditions, have just concluded successfully in Kwara. The celebrations spanned three towns, Lafiagi, Tsaragi, and Ilorin; from the colourful Tsakan/Nupe traditional day, through the Nikkah, and ended with the reception. It was a beautiful gathering filled with love, rich cultural celebration, prayers, and the heartfelt warmth of family and friends.
To my Uwarigida, thank you for your understanding, patience, and cooperation, especially through the nay-sayings and challenges. Your strength and grace continue to inspire and steady our home.
To our beloved parents, siblings, extended family, friends, supporters, and well-wishers, we sincerely thank you for your sacrifices, guidance, and unwavering support. If I have my way, I would have mentioned everybody’s name. You all stood by us and held us up in ways words cannot fully capture.
Special appreciation also goes to our mentors, friends, colleagues, and the wonderful community that showed up in large numbers, sent messages, gifts, and prayers. Your presence turned these moments into cherished memories.
May Allah bless every soul that contributed in any way, forgive our shortcomings, and grant us a blessed union rooted in love, peace, barakah, mutual respect, and lasting harmony.
Egi Nupe remains deeply grateful.

See this crazy stat:
1. Nigeria has over 300 ethnic groups
2. 100 prisoners were transferred to Nigeria
3. All the criminals are from only 1 ethnic group out of the 300+
4. That ethnic group is not even the largest in the country.
Then someone will say crime has no tribe?
@DanielRegha Oh, did he stop party delegates from voting for who they liked, just asking so I'm not misinformed or did he talk persuasive or convincingly for them to vote a candidate which I know is normal in politics. Also, his being handpicked isn't it part of politics? Is it rigging?
The igbos have contributed immensely to the Lagos economy! Commerce Wise! if you have a problem with it HUG A FRIGGING Transformer!!! We have made massive investments in Real estate too!! other tribes have contributed too. why is it always a problem when it’s the igbos?!! why??
