Just In: I Was Offered ₦500 Billion to Contest Against Peter Obi Just to Split His South-South Votes, But I Rejected the Offer Because Igbos Stood by Me in My Time of Need — Goodluck Jonathan
A political storm has erupted on social media after former President Goodluck Jonathan was alleged to have revealed that he once received a staggering ₦500 billion offer to contest against Peter Obi in a bid to reduce the Labour Party candidate’s support in Nigeria’s South-South region.
I join Peter Obi in calling for the Grand Master of Corruption, Bola Ahmed Tinubu to resign.
Asiwaju, you have wrecked enough damage.
@officialABAT has become a threat to the corporate existence of Nigeria. He has exported his Alpha Beta opacity to national. Seyi papa spent roughly ₦9 trillion without appropriation.
Zero accountability.
No legislative oversight whatsoever.
The money grew wings & flew away.
A man who surrounds himself with Abubakar Atiku Bagudu & Gilbert Chagoury (men who were General Abacha’s bagmen) cannot be trusted with the public finances of Nigeria.
Chagoury is the owner of HITECH, the company in charge of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road.
So far, HITECH has received almost $15 billion worth of contracts from Asiwaju. Including the latest $516.33 million syndicated Federal Government loan for the Sokoto-Badagry road.
The loan was sourced from Deutsche Bank AG & it’s supported by a partial risk guarantee from the Islamic Development Bank's insurance arm.
Inflation is mad, cost of living is killing the living. Nigerians are asked to endure & tighten their belts. You are asked to sell akara, agbado, & kulikuli. In the meantime, Nigeria’s balance sheet is becoming more & more untidy:
Debt-to-GDP Ratio is 52.9%.
Total Public Debt is ₦159.28 trillion.
Total External Debt is $51.86 billion.
2026 Projected Debt Service is ₦15.5 trillion to ₦16 trillion, or approximately $11.6 billion.
Tinubu is borrowing to fund the ₦68.32 trillion budget deficit, with debt servicing projected to consume 48% to 75% of your federal revenues.
While they gaslight you, BAT will continue to recklessly & dangerously mortgage your future. He has displaced General Sani Abacha. Asiwaju is now the undisputed King of Grand Corruption
Why should I be worrying myself when MNK and his siblings are okay with these types of people around him 🤔 🙄 ..... my focus is on the DOS headed by Mazi Chikadibia Edoziem (HDOS) and nothing more.
Nobody is asking why the physician that gave medical diagnosis of mnk was arrested.
Anybody that goes in contact with these lawyers and siblings will automatically get polluted and your career ruined.
If hyp0crisy, living in self denial and pretence are human beings, they will be one Nigerianists
Regarding everything that is happening in N!geria
They still don't want to accept the fact that one
N!geria is the root of all the problems

Are you not meant to be angry with Tinubu and his Minister of Education Mr Tunji who happens to be a Yoruba for causing a Yoruba kid to miss the Olympiad competition?
You celebrate Remi Tinubu for telling them to go sell akara and kulikuli but attack Alex Onyia for his private investment.
Crazy.
When I questioned the impact of Tunde Onakoya's Chess in the Slums initiative on Yoruba children, he blocked me, and his supporters dragged me for days.
Today, they're witnessing the impact of Alex Onyia's Educare initiative in the lives of Igbo children, and they're feeling left out. As a result, they've resorted to calling Alex a tribal bigot.
This was when he won the SouthEast Maths Olympiad earlier this year. I had to take out my phone to video him as he was speaking.
Boy sounds so mature, audacious, hilarious for his age. He's an orator.
“Tinubu Must Resign Over Incompetence, Daily Corruption Revelations” — Peter Obi Calls for Tinubu’s Resignation Over Multiple Corruption Scandals https://t.co/K6QVgJznOY
At a time when the southeast is taking their kids to a mathematics competition at the international STEM Olympiad in Rome, the southwest politicians, influencers, et al are insisting that frying akara & roasting corn is what the youth should strive towards. While the politicians in the north are sponsoring mass weddings & pilgrimage.
We will see the results in each region in a few years.
IPOB have facts and figures that's why we must continue to set the record straight
The paid agents are only doing what is in their script
It's a paid gig so they can only do what they are told to do
But truth will always triumph over lies and deceit
