My open letter to HE, Peter Obi.
Dear Sir @PeterObi,
Many people believe that one of the reasons some politicians gain respect is because they are not seen as openly buying votes or sharing money for political loyalty.
If you want to build a stronger movement without going down that route, money can still be a very powerful tool when it is spent in smart and transparent ways.
First, you can invest heavily in grassroots organization. Elections are often won at the local level, not just on television or social media.
Building offices in communities, training volunteers, and supporting coordinators in different wards and polling units costs money.
The more organized your campaign is, the easier it becomes to reach ordinary voters and communicate its message effectively.
Another area where finance can make a difference is voter education. Many voters do not fully understand the policies or plans being proposed by you.
Funding town hall meetings, community engagements, policy booklets, radio programs, and online content can help bridge that gap.
When people understand what you stand for, they are more likely to support you based on ideas rather than emotions.
Technology is also important. Your campaign can spend money developing strong digital platforms, voter databases, mobile apps, and communication systems.
These tools help campaigns stay connected with supporters, respond quickly to issues, and mobilize people during elections. In today's world, a weak digital presence can be a major disadvantage.
Research is another area that is often overlooked. Good campaigns spend resources understanding what concerns people the most.
Whether it is unemployment, insecurity, inflation, education, or healthcare, knowing what voters care about allows you to focus on the issues that matter instead of guessing. Some politicians spend too much time talking and hating on you, and too little time listening to the masses.
Finance can also be used to attract competent professionals. A serious campaign needs economists, policy experts, communication specialists, legal advisers, and organizers.
While passion is important, expertise matters too. Having the right team can improve your quality of policy proposals and public communication.
In addition, your campaign can support community service initiatives that are completely legal and transparent. For example, sponsoring public discussions, skills training programs, health awareness campaigns, or environmental projects.
If done genuinely and not as vote-buying, such activities can help people see that the "OK" or "OBIDIENT" movement is interested in solving problems rather than appearing only during election season.
Finally, transparency itself can become a political asset. If you publicly disclose donations, expenditures, and campaign finances, it may help earn trust from voters who are tired of secrecy and corruption.
Trust is difficult to buy, but openness can help build it over time.
At the end of the day, money alone does not win elections. However, money spent on organization, communication, research, technology, and public engagement can significantly strengthen your campaign.
The difference is that instead of using finance to influence voters directly, it is being used to build credibility, improve outreach, and create a more effective political movement.
The two approaches may cost money, but they are not the same thing at all.
Regards,
End.
TRIBUTE TO OLU JACOBS
It is with sadness that I received the news of the passing of our veteran actor, Olu Jacobs, whose demise was announced by his family yesterday, 16th September, 2026.
Olu Jacobs represented the excellence of the Nigerian spirit. He exemplified this through his remarkable contributions to the film and creative industry, in a career spanning several decades across both Britain and Nigeria.
His passing is once again a reminder to all of us that our time here is limited. Whatever responsibility we are entrusted with, and whatever area we are called to contribute to society, we must give it our very best and ensure that society benefits from our genius, talent and competence.
This was what Olu Jacobs was renowned for. He lived a life that demonstrated the power of talent, discipline, professionalism and dedication to one’s craft.
As we remember his life, times and passion, my thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, colleagues and the entire Nigerian creative community.
I pray that the Almighty will grant his loved ones, and our nation, the fortitude to bear this irreplaceable loss.
May the good Lord grant our father, Olu Jacobs, and all the faithful departed eternal rest. Amen. -PO
I made a website about @PeterObi. It details his entire life, his roots, offices held, source of wealth, documented donations, achievements as a governor, and more.

MY ADDRESS TO MARK THE COMMENCEMENT OF THE 2027 PRESIDENTIAL AND NATIONAL ASSEMBLY CAMPAIGNS
21 August 2026
Dear Compatriots,
Members of the Press,
Distinguished ladies and gentlemen,
Wednesday, 19 August 2026, marked the official start of the campaign period for the 2027 Presidential and National Assembly elections.
There is no doubt that this is a defining moment for our democracy. This moment gives Nigerians the opportunity to assess the records, ideas, and plans of those seeking their mandate to lead their country at a time of grave uncertainty in our rapidly changing world.
I consider myself quite privileged to be one of those seeking your mandate to deal with these challenges facing our country.
I enter this contest with one firm conviction: Nigeria can work, and Nigeria must work.
Nigeria faces several serious challenges. Some of them are indeed of existential proportions.
According to the IMF, 63%, or over 140 million Nigerians, live at or below the national poverty line, while humanitarian agencies estimate that 35 million people will need food assistance during the 2026 lean season. About 3.6 million Nigerians remain internally displaced, largely because of conflict and insecurity. Each year, millions of young people enter the labour market, yet too many struggle to find productive opportunities. Weak infrastructure, unreliable power, insecurity, and the excessive cost of doing business continue to burden households and constrain enterprise.
These are more than statistics. They reflect the daily realities of Nigerian families, farmers, workers, students, and businesses.
Yet I do not believe Nigeria lacks the ability to overcome these challenges. We have the people, resources, market, talent, and enterprise. What we must do now is turn these strengths into security, productivity, and shared prosperity.
LEADERSHIP MUST DELIVER RESULTS
My successful private-sector experience, studies in institutions of repute on policy and business matters, and my service as Governor of Anambra State have shaped my understanding of public leadership. Government must manage resources responsibly, set clear priorities, and measure the outcomes of its decisions. Public office is not a reward; it is a responsibility to the people.
In Anambra, I prioritised the foundations of long-term development: education, healthcare, infrastructure, fiscal discipline, and institutional capacity. I do not present that record as perfect, but as an experience from which Nigerians can draw their own conclusions.
Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso brings a different but complementary governing experience.
As Governor of Kano State, he focused strongly on education, technical training, scholarships, infrastructure, and human-capital development. His administration’s investments in education and skills showed an understanding that the people are a state’s most important long-term resource.
Our experiences are different, but our conclusion is the same: Nigeria must invest in its people and manage public resources with discipline.
BUILDING AN ECONOMY THAT WORKS
Nigeria needs more than reactive reforms. We must focus on the questions that matter:
Are Nigerians better off than they were four years ago? Can they afford food, education, and healthcare? Can businesses produce, expand, and create jobs? Can young people find productive work? Can farmers work safely and get their produce to market?
Happy birthday to my political leader.
No public office blemish, no corrupt cases, no shady pasts - walks the talk & has proven that there's an upright way to do politics.
You're the man we say you are & thrice the man you think you are.
Happy birthday H.E Peter Obi. 🎂 🎈
WOW!! WOW!! WOW!!
Familiarize yourselves with his face, fame, & name. Because his name is Bassey Stephen Etim, & he needs a few introductions.
This 15-year-old Master Etim decided to write his name in Gold by winning the Sterling Bank Online National Mathematics Quiz competition.
He is currently an SS2 student at Dority International Secondary School Aba, in Abia State. Stephen outperformed students from across Nigeria. A superstar is born. 👏👏
The wait is over.
We have 2 golds: Chimdiebube Onwubiko and Don Anele Munachimso.
We are the best in the world!
Egejurum Onyedikachi’s name was omitted. He should have a gold.
My Vision for a Productive and Prosperous Nigeria
Today, being the 1st of July, 2026, I wish to humbly recall that when I decided to contest for the office of President of Nigeria, I pledged to place Nigeria on the path of unity and national transformation. Now, as the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) candidate, I will, in the coming weeks and months, provide insights into the roadmap that I am confident will help curb abuse in government, halt the decline in the quality of life of Nigerians at all levels, and usher in an era of unity, peace, sustained progress, and prosperity.
This vision is anchored on a commitment to unity, inclusion, social justice, equity, and the freedom of every citizen to pursue lawful dreams.
Central to this proposed roadmap are significant reforms in education and healthcare, which are at the core of human capital development.
Robust human capital is indispensable infrastructure for national progress. It serves as the fundamental capital upon which daily life, economic expansion, and the delivery of essential public services depend.
These are foundational areas that we must reform with energy and determination if we are to reap the demographic dividend of our youthful population.
From the outset of my presidency, we will establish a task force dedicated to drastically reducing the menace of out-of-school children. We will place greater emphasis on Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) to support our drive for massive industrialisation, anchored on our agricultural endowments and value addition across value chains organised around industrial parks to be located in development zones across the geopolitical regions of the country.
Funding and improving the equipment of TVET institutions, through partnerships among government, the private sector, and social entrepreneurs such as faith-based educators, will facilitate apprenticeship opportunities in the private sector, similar to the German dual education system.
The situation in which unemployment remains high while Nigerian entrepreneurs establish businesses elsewhere because skilled labour is scarce must be confronted decisively. Doing so is essential for the common good and for facilitating our transition from a consumption-driven economy to a production-driven one.
Character and civic education, emphasising the values that foster trust - an essential ingredient for enterprise and leadership - as well as shared national values, will receive significant attention within the tripartite approach to governance that we propose.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
