@PeterObi The thugs could have used these energies to go after the Fulani herdsmen and bandits that have been displacing their people and killing them for years. Hopefully, all these madness will end in 2027.
This is a Rufai Oseni Appreciation Post.
Take the damn garden, man! flowers won’t cut it.
You are built tough, and thank you for refusing to be bought, bullied, silenced, or intimidated.
On behalf of millions of sensible Nigerians who don’t support criminals or a drug trafficker, thank you, @ruffydfire, for standing your ground and refusing to bend the knee.
In a country where many people can be bought, your refusal to compromise is refreshing.
Keep standing.
Keep speaking.
Keep doing your damn thing.
MY VISIT TO PORT HARCOURT
Yesterday, after attending Daily Times at 100th in Abuja, I travelled to Port Harcourt for a rousing reception from our party members, led by our Governorship Candidate in Rivers State, Chief Barr. Dumo Lulu-Briggs. The leadership of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) is to attend the NDC Obi-Talks, a Port Harcourt Town Hall.
The town hall provided an opportunity for an open and engaging conversation with the people. Our questions and answers centered on issues that directly affect the lives of Nigerians, including jobs, healthcare, education, security, and economic opportunity.
I reiterated my commitment to investing in the three critical areas that accelerate the development of every nation: education, healthcare, and pulling our people out of poverty.
We examined the experiences of countries that once faced challenges similar to those confronting Nigeria today, and how competent, purposeful, and compassionate leadership transformed their fortunes.
From Bangladesh and its remarkable progress in rice production, to Indonesia and the growth of its SMEs, and India’s efforts at pulling millions of its citizens out of poverty, the lesson is clear: countries succeed when leadership is competent, accountable, focused, and committed to the welfare of the people.
My greatest elation today came from the renewed commitment I saw among the good people of Rivers State to participate massively in the 2027 elections and, more importantly, to ensure that their votes are counted and the people’s mandate is respected.
Let it be recorded that this time around, the people of Rivers State will vote, and their votes MUST count.
Only leaders who emerge from a free, fair, and credible electoral process can truly be called Excellencies. Rivers State can and should set the pace for excellent, free, fair, and credible elections in 2027.
I sincerely thank our Vice Presidential Candidate, His Excellency Senator Dr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso; our host and Governorship Candidate in Rivers State, Chief Barr. Dumo Lulu-Briggs; his team; the Rivers State Working Committee of the NDC; the National Working Committee led by our National Chairman, Senator Cleopas Moses Zuwoghe; and all our friends, supporters, and well-wishers who joined us for this important engagement.
Our task is to rescue Nigeria, rebuild our institutions, and restore hope to our people.
A New Nigeria is Possible, and Nigeria will be OK. -PO
I said I’d do politics differently. So these are the facts:
The UK has seen the lowest number of summer small boat arrivals since 2020.
We’ve returned more than 80,000 people with no right to be here – and annual returns are at their highest level since 2016.
There are half the number of asylum seekers in hotels than there were last year.
And today, we go further by bringing the total number of deployed French officers tackling small boat crossings to nearly 1,050.
But I know that we can’t be complacent on this.
Smuggling gangs are constantly adapting their tactics, and we need to respond quickly and stay one step ahead of the criminals facilitating dangerous crossings.
The small boats crisis is a shared European challenge, and no country can solve it alone. Working with France and our international partners, we will restore order and control to our borders and prevent smugglers exploiting vulnerable migrants.
Dear Obi/Kwankwaso visit all the Churches and Mosques In Nigeria!
Don’t allow Religious bigots who fielded a Muslim- Muslim ticket and openly bribe clerics gaslight you.
Go to every room, space, and gathering where Nigerians are and preach the New Nigeria Message.
Let the haters cry 😭
“The only thing I can ask is that you remember us, the politicians, in your prayers. We are the problem of this country. There is nothing wrong with our country; it is only båd leadership.”
~ Peter Obi says in church
It was a indeed a joyous occasion as I addressed 1,086 bright young minds at the graduation ceremony of the 2026 Abia State Leadership Academy Youth Leadership Boot Camp that held at the International Conference Centre, Umuahia.
I reminded them that they are not returning home as ordinary citizens, but as bearers of solutions, drivers of innovation, and agents of transformation. The New Abia project is a transgenerational journey, and these young leaders are now active partners in shaping it.
I commend the President of the Abia State Leadership Academy, Prof. Kenneth Kalu, and the Director of the Enterprise Development Centre of Pan-Atlantic University, Dr. Nneka Okekaru, for their dedication and partnership. I also appreciate the support of the President of the Nigerian Council of Registered Insurance Brokers (NCRIB), Mrs Ekeoma Ezeibe, the Nigerian Naval College of Accounts and Finance, and the Management of Government College Umuahia for their invaluable contributions to the success of this programme.
I particularly acknowledge Ms. Roseline Faridat Abdusalam, one of the outstanding participants whose success exemplifies our inclusive policy that “if you live in Abia, you are from Abia.”
To our graduates:
* Establish mentoring clusters.
* Share the knowledge you have gained.
* Carry the light of excellence into your communities, schools, and workplaces.
Your choices will define the future of Abia. Stand firm, act with distinction, and let your achievements justify the confidence reposed in you.
Congratulations once again. The journey has just begun.
I won in 2023 and I was not declared winner. God designed it that Buhari will be president, and that after him Tinubu would come.. God wanted to to open the eyes of Nigerians..
— Peter Obi
2027, vote for this man. This is the right man for the job. He has consistently preached hope and has backed his words with evidence. He has repeatedly challenged Nigerians to go and verify his record as a former Governor and his involvement in various businesses. A man who, to date, has no criminal conviction and no known case against him with the EFCC.
A man who has presented himself as straightforward, truthful, and determined to put an end to the rascality and disorder that have become too common in Nigeria. Nigeria has become a joke in the eyes of many around the world, and we must begin to straighten things out and make our country sane again. He has said this will be his last time contesting for the presidency. If we miss this opportunity, we may not get another chance with him. In the 2027 election, vote His Excellency Peter Obi. And most importantly, make sure you protect, guard, and defend your vote. Let’s get it right this time.
DROP THAT LOVE EMOJI ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ IN THE COMMENTS SECTION FOR PETER OBI.
No PVC? No Problem
Many Nigerians of voting age do not have their PVCs, and they are ashamed to admit it.
With or without your PVC, you play a major role in helping ensure votes are counted.
As long as you are of voting age, PVC or no PVC, everyone is outside.
We need a minimum of 100 million Nigerians that this government has thrown into abject Poverty outside on Election Day.
Please pass this on; let's educate our people.
Tinubu MUST GO! #RigAndDie #DettyDecemberIsCancelled
The greatest inheritance we can give our children today is quality education.
Money can be lost. Circumstances can change. Property can be lost. Connections can fade. But when a child truly learns how to think, solve problems and create value, you have given them something remarkably difficult for life to take away.
The quality of education we give them will determine the quality of country they build for us tomorrow.
This is why I have dedicated so much of my work to education.
We are building human beings.
Dolly Parton: The Compassion That Came From Humble Beginnings.
There is something deeply moving about Dolly Parton that goes beyond her extraordinary music. For those of us who admire her, perhaps the most enduring part of her story is not the fame, the records, the awards or the wealth, but the person she remained after all of them.
Dolly Parton’s greatness, to me, goes far beyond her extraordinary music. It is in the person she remained despite the fame, wealth and success. She came from poverty in rural Tennessee, from a large, humble family with little materially but rich in love, faith, resilience and family values. She never seemed to forget those beginnings. Instead, she carried them into her music and her life.
That is why her songs resonate so deeply. She sang about love, heartbreak, hardship, loneliness, hope and the struggles of ordinary people—not merely as a performer, but as someone who understood them. Her music gave dignity to people who were often overlooked.
Her compassion seemed to flow naturally from her upbringing. Even at the height of her success, she retained a remarkable warmth, humility and generosity, particularly toward children, the poor and those in need.
I admire Dolly Parton not simply because she became a great musician, but because success never made her forget where she came from. She turned her humble beginnings into music (Coat of Many Colors) that comforted millions and a life that continues to inspire.
For me, that is her greatest song: the sound of a good heart that never forgot its roots.
May God Almighty, who made her such a compassionate soul, grant her soul eternal rest. -PO
Sowore 🗣️: while Peter Obi was the governor of Anambra, doctors went on strike for 13 months.
You might like Obi as a person but he did not perform as a governor.
Peter Obi🗣️: He said doctors went on strike for 13 months but he did not tell you why the doctors went on strike.
When I became a governor, our hospitals was nothing to write home about and when the government sends money for things to be fixed, they will divert the money to personal accounts and the problem persists, so we developed a new strategy of partnering with agencies and private hospitals through funding.
This made the doctors angry hence the strike.
If you’re doing something good, those benefiting from it for being bad will agitate, if other ways of getting it right upset them we will not stop doing what is right, let them agitate.
Go to Anambra today, we have the highest teaching hospitals and nursing schools compared to any other state in Nigeria.
This is what leadership entails.
You can’t deny that a handful of people are benefiting from the coarse and corruption going on in Nigeria right now, imagine trying to stope those coarse, they will fight back and them fighting back does not mean something worse is about to happen, it means food is being taken away from their mouth and they need to fight to survive because they only thrive in coarse.
This is why I chose @PeterObi as my presidential candidate, we have tested his capacity and capability as a governor, he will fix Nigeria as a president.
@drkenon2 See what education can do for someone. See how Hassan is reasoning as a good citizen of his country. If northern leaders can take the education of these people very serious, and engage them in meaningful things, we will have less security problems.
