If you are sincere and your definition of leadership is right you won't be against Peter Obi.
Only a selfish mind would see all these and still question it.
Peter Obi - a man that defies Nigeria's version of leadership.

@Vindicatedchidi The last time he talked of what to do with subsidy,the current president stole and messed it up.
The driver has the responsibility of driving the bus safely,not the conductor.
Obi might have made mistakes in the past by allowing unpopular personalities to ride on his popularity, win elections, and only to defect to APC then make a U turn when APC rejected them in the primaries, but Dickson and NDC has said that affliction will not arise the second time so they have ensured that the processes that will produce anyone will be carefully monitored this time.
This is exactly where Thadeaus Attah has found himself trapped in a web of rejection.
As a member of the House of Representatives representing Eti Osa Federal Constituency, he rode into office on the Labour Party platform at the peak of the Obi movement. At that time, even with the popularity of Bank W, Thadeaus Attah defeated him because he was running under the powerful coverage and goodwill of Obi.
However, after securing victory, he disregarded Section 68 (1) (g) of the Constitution, disregarded Obi's goodwill, disregarded the people who entrusted him with the mandate under the Labour Party, and hurried to APC with the belief that an automatic ticket was waiting for him.
But politics has a way of humbling those who think loyalty is no longer necessary after victory.
When APC rejected him, he quickly ran back to NDC, apparently thinking NDC was Labour Party where things would simply fall into place for him. Yet, NDC did not complain. They accepted him and gave him a fair opportunity by organizing a primary election involving him and other contestants.
The result was shocking.
Rotimi Obasanjo completely floored him, polling 1,928 votes against the mere 157 votes Thadeaus Attah managed to secure.
That outcome speaks volumes.
With this development, I honestly do not know his next destination because it is becoming increasingly clear that he is loyal only to his ambition. I have always said that a greedy man is good to no one, but worse to himself.

“Relationship between me, Obi Cubana and Cubana ChiefPriest is like three brothers from the same parents. My brothers are doing the City Boy movement, I called them and told them that the movement is not good because Nigerians are sûff£ring.
As for me, I love my fellow human beings more than money. Just because of position, my fellow Igbo brothers are afraid to speak up. Nigerians should stop listening to someone like Kenneth Okonkwo, he is a distraction. Peter can’t be a black man today and you expect him to change to a white man tomorrow. The only people that can save Nigeria now are Obi-Kwankwaso via NDC.”
– Nigerian businessman and public figure Chidi Mike has made a series of political remarks during a recent interview, speaking on national politics, leadership choices.
Treat as urgent: NDC did not cancel Aisha Yesufu’s candidacy or impose anyone on her. The FCT senatorial ticket was not given to Mrs. Amanda Pam. Repost aggressively to end these lies spreading around.
With this matter behind us, our full focus returns to the work ahead: advancing the Core network and expanding the Bitcoin finance stack alongside the builders, validators, and ecosystem partners driving real growth.
Forward. 🔶
