How much would you price a 4 Bedroom terraced duplex in a fully secured estate (with mobile police), next to a mall, solar-powered, 24/7 electricity, spacious interiors, parking for 4 cars, and full title documents?
Don't get sucked into the negative corner of the universe.
Nigeria may not be there yet, but this administration & BAT dey try! However, more is needed 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
When we came into office, we made a promise to Nigerians that food security would be a major pillar of our Renewed Hope agenda.
We promised to support our farmers, strengthen local production, reduce dependence on imports, and build an agricultural system strong enough to withstand shocks from beyond our borders.
That promise is being kept.

I just finished watching Peter Obi’s 1 hour 23-minute interview with Rufai, and I did so with a completely open mind. He’s not my party’s candidate, but I sat down to hear the plan. There was no plan. Just a man with nice wishes and an empty file where the strategy should be.
Every time Rufai pressed him with, “How will you fix power, education, insecurity?” Obi reached for the same convenient answer: “Don’t worry, I’ll do it. I did it in Anambra.” That’s not an answer; that’s a slogan. Running 200 million people is not Anambra. And “trust me bro” can never be a strategy to enhance power or to fight insecurity.
And let’s retire this Anambra myth once and for all. The issues burning across Nigeria today, for example, mass insecurity, multidimensional poverty, a broken power grid, a currency in freefall, a debt trap, and so on, are crises that were never under his jurisdiction as governor. As such, he cannot claim antecedents as proof that he can solve them. You don’t get to wave away a problem you never faced as proof that you’ve already conquered it. That’s not experience. That’s storytelling.
My takeaway is simple, Peter Obi can describe the Nigeria he wants to see. What he failed to demonstrate in this interview is that he has a credible, detailed, and executable pathway to get us there. If this is what the NDC is offering Nigeria in 2027, then the NDC and the Obidient movement have a candidate who can describe the destination but cannot drive the car.
A destination without a map is not a plan. It is a wish.
He kept touching Rufai all through that interview as a gesture of closeness and ownership. He was extremely comfortable as he didn’t expect much pushbacks or any form of deep questioning. It was a parlor gist with one of his supporters.
@ruffydfire The Summary of the interview:
Forget proof.
Forget plan.
Don't ask me how.
Just trust me, I go lie 4 you ?
Me: Thunder go fire 🔥 Peter obi .
