Adam's Oshiomole has more to learn, and needs to learn this:
A sub-national government is not restricted to holding 100% of its reserve cash in local currency. Obi’s administration intentionally converted surplus Naira funds derived from FAAC allocations, Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), and saved operational costs into foreign currency deposits.
Former Managing Director of Diamond Bank and current Governor of Abia State, Alex Otti, publicly confirmed that Obi actively sought financial advice on preserving the value of Anambra's reserves. To hedge against Naira inflation and currency devaluation, the state converted excess Naira reserves into US Dollar-denominated fixed deposits and Eurobonds.
The salient fact is trending profoundly:
In African politics and public discourse, the proverb "PEOPLE ONLY THROW STONES AT A TREE BEARING RIPE, SWEET FRUIT" is frequently invoked to explain why prominent figures become targets of intense political attack like we can all see it clearly on the numerous attacks being targeted at HE Peter Gregory Obi.
Infact, when applied to figures like former Anambra State governor Peter Obi, the metaphor operates on both political strategy and social dynamics. That's clearly indications of the sweetness of the juice coming from the 🌳 tree. Peter Obi remains the central figure of discussions in the Nigerian political landscape!
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has reportedly and allegedly, cancelled his trip to the 81st session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York, designating Vice President Kashim Shettima to represent Nigeria instead.
The decision stems from security intelligence warning of planned protests and heckling by Nigerians living in the United States. According to an anonymous security source, opposition elements are allegedly mobilizing demonstrators in connection with ongoing efforts to release US law enforcement records from Tinubu’s time in Chicago during the early 1990s.
The security concerns coincide with an escalating legal battle. Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar engaged Washington lobbying firm Von Batten-Montague-York to press agencies including the FBI and DEA - for the public release of files related to Tinubu. The controversy intensified after the firm claimed individuals linked to the presidency offered a $3 million bribe to halt their efforts, an allegation the presidency has not addressed.
Adding further weight to the firm’s standing, the US President Donald Trump appointed its Managing Partner, Dr. Karl Von Batten, to a White House presidential commission on Thursday.

@Rockymedia247 Unless language has lost it's meaning entirely it's obvious you are absolutely ranting lies for the gullible minded, weak minded, or the flip flopping minded: that in reality, it's Omoyele Sowore your principal that's not truly serious to win the presidency
@deborahsal82 Simon Ekpa has not been released from prison.
This video clip currently circulating online is either old archival footage or pre-recorded material being reshared by supporters.
He remains in custody following legal proceedings and sentencing by Finnish authorities.
@Rockymedia247 Peter Obi has presidential experience, heavily loaded with political viability, coalition power, possesses impeccable character, capacity and intriguing competence to be.
Sowore is a fault finder, has no capacity, character and not yet tested but needs mentorship.
@Rockymedia247 Peter Obi possesses a broader national coalition, deep institutional experience, and widespread electoral appeal across varied demographics, making him a major contender capable of building broad electoral alliances for 2027.
@fkeyamo@officialABAT To protect himself and ensure Federal support governor-elect Adeleke is leveraging multi-party networks within Osun State to deliver its presidential vote to Tinubu. But executing this non-partisan strategy needs careful tactical navigation so voters remain clear on election day.
@engineerkay4@ruffydfire What a shame, Nigerian government repeatedly default on its core obligations, both domestically and on the global stage with impunity? Yet expecting loyalty from its citizens or credibility from the international community when it consistently fails to uphold its basic duties?
@PeterObi A claim online alleged Obi asked military to reject pay raise until 2027 election.
Fact-checks confirmed it's false and used a fake screenshot made to look like a news outlet graphic. Obi has no official statement rejecting or opposing salary increases for military personnel.
