I know we say Peter Obi is not the โMessiah,โ but he may, in effect, become one.
Guys, my desire to see Peter Obi as the leader of Nigeria is not primarily economic or security related.
It is first moral. We need a moral revolution in this nation.
With Peter as our representative:
We will no longer exalt those who become massively successful through wrongdoing.
This is why people praise figures like Hushpuppi and Tinubu as a โmaster strategist.โ
We have become fascinated by those who achieve monumental success through corrupt means.
With Peter as our representative:
We will no longer define political power by how distant we are from it.
That is the current dynamic of our political system.
Our politicians relegate us while exalting themselves. They make us destitute. They have:
Cars we can never afford.
Jets we may never see.
Yachts we will never cruise.
Houses we will never live in.
Money we will never dream.
They create such a wide gap that their lifestyle becomes a fantasy that keeps us spellbound by their grandeur.
They distract us with dreams of a life we may never have while draining your future to fund their luxury.
With Peter as our representative:
Incompetence from elected leaders will no longer be tolerated.
For the past 15 years of APC, we have expected the barest minimum from leaders.
When they fail, we excuse it by saying nothing more could have been done.
Buhari presided over the failure of a generation of over 200 million people, and all we got was an apology.
Peter Obi will bring a system of strict adherence to responsibility, duty, and accountability.
You will a valid reason to your President, one who may not take a salary or maintain a bloated convoy, why N1.5 billion is requested to build a national website.
You better have explanations for why more than 40% of federal revenue cannot be accounted for.
Large corporations will be compelled to justify exploitative practices against Nigerians.
MTN will be scared to hurt you.
The banks will be scared to debit you.
You will have a nation that fights for you because its leaderโs hands will be clean.
That image of righteousness will follow you everywhere.
International clients will no longer backlist you as a remote worker simply because you have a Nigerian passport.
Lastly, with Peter as our representative:
Our society will offer better role models to its youth.
Young girls will not look up to empty lifestyles defined by BBLs, artificial breasts, and superficial values.
Education, intellect, and industry will be promoted among Nigerian women, and figures like Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala will once again inspire young girls.
Adeola in a public school in Abeokuta will do all her best to become a math and literature champion;
instead of worrying about the shortest and tightest gown that can make her bottom jiggle the best on TikTok.
Young boys will not idolize figures like the fraudsters that your A-list celebrities constantly praise in their artless and soulless songs.
Being a Yahoo boy or a hookup girl will naturally become taboo.
Real talent, hard work, and vision will define our youth.
Corruption will no longer be the modus operandi of the civil service.
No airport official will extort you. This moral transformation will change everything in this country.
From the economy to security, education to healthcare, the Nigeria you knew 21 years ago will re-emerge, stronger and brighter.
This is why I hope and pray Peter Obi becomes our president.
No nation survives with the level of moral decadence we currently have in Nigeria.
None. Not one.
As the Bible says:
โRighteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.โ โ Proverbs 14:34
So yes, Peter Obi may not be the โMessiah,โ but he will have a similar transformative effect on this nation.
So, to the Supreme Judge of the universe, we pray this comes to pass, let your hand help and guide Peter Gregory Obi.
Amen.

Thirty-two months after being incharge and instead of living by his powerful words, he now dumps National Grid that has been performing abysmally under his watch.
Those were the powerful words then that inspired hope among Nigerians who longed for light in their homes, stability for their businesses, and growth for their nation. Yet, while Nigerians are still grappling with that unfulfilled, categorical electoral promise - and without clear communication on the obstacles, if any, we read of provision in 2025 budget about the โฆ10 billion for solar power at Aso Rock, and in 2026 budget another humongous amount for upgrade and maintenance and now we are being scarcitically told that Presidential Villa has planned to be disconnected from the national grid to rely entirely on solar.
It is a gross neglect and deeply worrisome when the seat of power abandons the national grid. One would expect government institutions to lead efforts to strengthen and expand the grid so that other establishments, and ultimately, citizens can benefit. If those in authority disconnect themselves from the system, who then will connect the ordinary Nigerian to reliable power?
Promoting renewable energy, as solar systems do, is commendable and necessary for the future. However, this situation reflects a deeper concern: governance lacking compassion and commitment to the governed. You cannot tell the people to fast while feasting yourself, securing yourself while Nigerians remain unsecured.
Nigerians do not expect 100% fulfilment of promises, but they do expect 100% effort, accompanied by measurable improvements and clear explanations when gaps exist. Leadership must serve the people, not isolate itself from their daily struggles. -PO
