Is it not even better for @PeterObi not to grant or honour any interviews at all than to keep embarrassing his family and political supporters by exposing such intellectual inadequacy?
Is this really the person you guys are parading as someone capable of restoring Nigeria’s lost glory by electing him as President of this noble country?
A man who cannot even answer the simplest question be as it may?
The most amazing thing is that even the interviewer, who happened to be one of his major supporters in 2023, appeared visibly stunned. Her reaction seemed to say, “Whatttt?” as though she was beginning to realise how dangerous a decision it would be if this is the person Nigerians are projecting to become President.
The presidency of Nigeria demands depth, clarity, substance and a solid understanding of national issues and for a fact; Peter Obi clearly lacks all of these.
Electoral Act: Does Oby Ezekwesili Want To Make It Easy For Peter Obi To Rig The 2027 Elections?
For many Nigerians, it came as a surprise to hear Mrs Oby Ezekwesili, a vocal promoter of the Presidential ambition of Peter Obi, appoint herself as their spokesperson and claim that Nigerians demand real-time transmission and upload of election results during her appearance today on Arise TV. Who told Mrs Ezekwesili that? Has she taken a survey of Nigerians? From where did she draw her conclusions?
Like me, Oby Ezekwesili has lived in America, the most advanced country on Earth. Even in the United States, there is no real-time transmission of election results by the Federal Election Commission. Please fact-check me.
In the United Kingdom, where both Oby Ezekwesili and I have also spent time, there is no real-time transmission of election results by the UK Electoral Commission. Again, please fact-check me.
Placing impossible standards that cannot be met by even the most technologically advanced nations on Earth on the Independent National Electoral Commission is not patriotic. It is delusional.
We remember how this same Oby Ezekwesili almost set Nigeria on fire by promoting the lie that a Yoruba Muslim Registrar General of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board wanted to cheat an underage Igbo Christian girl. That action nearly caused ethnoreligious strife in the country, but for quick action on the part of our security forces.
And then it was discovered that not only was Mmesoma Ejikeme not underage, but at 19, she was a full-blown adult, but she also forged her results sent to her electronically by JAMB and deceived millions of Nigerians.
Now, Nigerians should ask themselves this question. If a nineteen-year-old secondary school student can scam JAMB by falsifying her electronically transmitted result, imagine how much easier it would be for a dishonest and desperate politician, like Peter Obi, to manipulate electronically transmitted results.
We are, after all, talking of the same Peter Obi under whom exam miracle centres thrived whilst he was Anambra Governor. A man who was detained at Heathrow airport, London, over dodgy issues with his electronic fingerprints and identity.
The Senate of the National Assembly took the right decision in the Electoral Act amendment, and I commend Senate President Godswill Akpabio and all Senators who voted to pass the amendment.
At the end of the day, sound judgement and rational thinking must overcome emotional outbursts and sentimental posturing of the likes of Oby Ezekwesili and others, who want to set Nigeria on fire by making demands that no country on Earth can meet, in their bid to cause chaos ahead of the 2027 election.
May God bless the Senate of the National Assembly, and may God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

These are the faces of the hardened criminals responsible for kidnapping two Catholic priests from St. Vincent De Paul Parish in Pankshin, Plateau State, none of whom is a Muslim or Fulani. Shockingly, one of the kidnappers is the church’s financial secretary.
Had they not been caught, they would probably be among those shouting “Christian genocide” today, blaming Muslims and Fulani for the same crimes they committed.
People like this are the real problem, they commit atrocities, stir chaos, and even trigger reprisal attacks while pretending to be victims. Thereby causing a long enmity amongst the populace.
Sadly, you won’t see the same loud voices crying “Christian genocide” share this news because it doesn't suit the agenda.
The land in question was allocated to SANTOS ESTATE LIMITED in 2007, for PARK and RECREATION.
In 2022, the company wrote to the then FCT Minister, seeking approval to change LAND USE PURPOSE to residential.
While still waiting for response to this request, the company decided to partition the land and sell to people, including the former Chief of Naval Staff.
The then FCT Minister declined the request to change the land use purpose from PARK and RECREATION to RESIDENTIAL.
Meanwhile, Santos Estate Limited already sold the land to unsuspecting people, including the former CNS, who is building DUPLEXES on his own.
Like I said earlier, shouldn't the former Chief of Naval Staff be more concerned with the person who scammed him rather than using military might hold on to a property on which he was duped?
