Thank you.
Peter Obi: "I am going to make sure we have primary healthcare centres in all 8,000 wards across Nigeria"
Meanwhile it was Soludo's administration that commissioned the first-ever General Hospital in Onitsha South LGA, a state where Obi was an active governor for eight years. For eight good years Obi couldn't build a hospital in one of the major local govts in Anambra.
But he's promising a healthcare centre across the nation, and in four years too, because he said he wants just one tenure. What a joke.
Sad news: FG not Tinubu has cleared the long standing arrears for eligible retirees of the defunct NITEL and its subsidiary, MTEL.
2: for our young people, the long-standing backlog against our parents and guardians ORIGINATED when @atiku was chairman Privatization.
3: govt has released a sum of N25.05 bn through PTAD
4: To our parents and Guardians, so painful, we are sorry. Buhari paid and Tinubu paid. No more Egypt ooooo
It is not nonsense Sir...
It depends on how you define "nonsense"...
To a chicken, flying over the fence is an achievement; to an Eagle, that same altitude would be considered an embarrassment - utter failure.
Somewhere else in the South, a modern rail-line may be the barest minimum. In another clime, JB concrete Slab and gutters may be laudable enough.
This may be the standard they have been raised on. Sympathy not judgment please.
This is not the Coastal Road. This is the Abuja–Lokoja Road. My brother, look at that thickness! 😄
Lesson of the day: Patience often eats the most delicious soup
Jobs for our young people remain central to our Renewed Hope Agenda.
Through the Presidential Metering Initiative (PMI), which I established to close Nigeria’s metering gap, end estimated billing, protect consumers, and strengthen the electricity market, we are opening a new pathway for 5,000 young Nigerians to be trained as meter installers and technicians under The Power Force.
The date on Peter Obi’s university certificate is 1984, while the date on his GCE is 1986. Does it mean he went to university before going to secondary school? This is still the person who mocked Tinubu for certificate forgery. Politicians, eeh! They will never practice what they preach.
See reaction as FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike announced approval of the construction of Kaba–Kagini–Zaudna Road following residents' public appeal

"Your state governments now have money, they recieve huge allocation now, ask them to construct your roads, schools and hospital...."
BOLA AHMED TINUBU
The honest truth is Peter Obi is not in the political game, he's just a good pawn being used and it's good that he doesn't know.....
So, whatever Kenneth Okonkwo said was correct....
"Your achievements speak volumes beyond imagination. In three years you have about 10 reforms under your belt, and i believe that there's a lot more to come. Many of us don't even understand how you do it, but we’ll continue to follow you." — Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila at the Presidential Press Corps Dinner
"My dear wife, First Lady, Iya Alakara"
