The Burden of Complaints and the Test of Leadership: Can a Persistent Complainant Lead a Nation? Why Peter Obi Falls Short and Bola Ahmed Tinubu Embodies Nigeria’s Strategic Continuity to 2031
Igbos or should I say the Southeastern region of Nigeria are yet to have a reliable, stable, competent, and dogged presidential candidate or a leader who can brilliantly deliver the dividends of democracy to their country and their people. Peter Obi is neither a Biafran nor a Nigerian in political identity. He is a confused man.
Peter Obi is a man who is not competent, not confident, not consistent, and he lacks the three basic Cs qualities that make a good leader. He doesn’t seem capable of making any sense of what he’s saying about himself or about his country, Nigeria. His inconsistencies and moving around from one political party to another without any strategy make him appear more like a political loser, wandering around aimlessly, trying to find his feet on sinking sand.
From Atiku Abubakar, a serial political failure, to Rabiu Kwankwaso, a heavy political mathematician who understands the real power dynamics and clearly sees how politically fragile Peter Obi is, the contrast is striking and impossible to ignore.
Obi, to me, appears vulnerable, indecisive, and deeply confused a man who seems to know absolutely nothing about politics. Put me on a political chessboard with Peter Obi and I will play him out in a second.
Obi is far away from being a good presidential candidate or even a vice presidential nominee or candidate.
In contrast, Nigeria needs continuity, structure, and a leader with tested political depth and strategic capacity. Bola Ahmed Tinubu represents that vision a leader whose experience, network, and resilience position him to drive sustainable progress. For those who understand the language of power, governance, and long term national development, continuity under his leadership remains the most pragmatic path forward to 2031.

GOOD NEWS: This evening, Troops neutralized several bandits in Gadar Manya outskirts, Anka LGA, Zamfara State. The group were known for blocking the Gurusu–Gwashi way and abducting travelers.
Kudos to the troops for their bravery & continued commitment in restoring peace.
Kogi troops neutralize suspected terrorist in Kabba/Bunu LGA
By: Zagazola
Troops of 12 Brigade have neutralized a suspected terrorist during a fighting patrol at Odoape–Adankolo Forest in Kabba/Bunu LGA.
The encounter occurred at about 1400hrs on March 23, 2026, when the patrol team made contact with the fleeing suspect.
Preliminary investigation identified the neutralized individual as a notorious terrorist involved in providing intelligence and targets for kidnappings, as well as participating in cattle rustling and supplying logs to terrorist groups.
The military has reaffirmed its commitment to sustaining aggressive patrols and intelligence-led operations to curb criminal activities and protect residents in the area.
@IkebunnaSunday@renoomokri Once you join Obingos, you simply lose your brain, and your reasoning faculty melts away. The only deliverance for Zombidients is to collect their brains 🧠 from Peter Obi. Until then, don't expect any reasonable response from them.
@renoomokri I need not say more. I hope Zombidients and Atikulooted along with their close cousins Obingos and Zombidiots will take time to read the piece and have understanding.
I Fought Abacha, and I Know That President Tinubu Is Certainly Not an Abacha!
This is me in the attached photo, taken in 1998. I was being honoured by Bastiaan Korner, the then Dutch ambassador to Nigeria, for my role in fighting for democracy against the despotic and murderous Abacha military junta. The other gentleman is one of the most patriotic Nigerians alive. He is the current editor of Thisday Newspaper.
Having fought that despicable regime, I will not sit idly by while persons like Farooq Kperogi and Dele Momodu make unjust and unfair comparisons between that government, if you can call the Abacha regime a government, and the Tinubu administration.
Making accusations that the judiciary is "susceptible to political manipulation" without supporting them with facts, data, and statistics is unhelpful to democracy, undermines the trust Nigerians have in their government, and is itself anti-intellectual. I wonder why a man like Kperogi would say such.
You shouldn't make such opinionated statements without backing them up, because that assertion is not only false but will also negatively affect Nigeria's FDI drive, as investors do not invest in countries without an independent judiciary.
And for Mr Kperogi to say the President is "stealthily but systematically weakening all the political parties that could provide viable platforms for his opponents in 2027" is fallacious.
Again, he, like Dele Momodu before him, offers no evidentiary backup for those strong words.
But it is not just that. These gentlemen betray both a lack of grasp of party politics and history.
Let me start with history. It is not President Tinubu who is systematically weakening opposition parties. No. The truth is that it is the character of his opponents that is ruining these parties.
Some of these persons have a history of lacking the patience to build solid structures and of causing dissension, whether they go.
For example, Peter Obi began his political career in the All Progressives Grand Alliance after he was picked up by Dim Emeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, whom he subsequently betrayed.
While in APGA, Peter Obi, in a now-viral video, swore that he would never leave the party. Yet he did leave, but not before dividing that party. The chaos he caused was so deep-seated that he was cursed by the then Chairman of APGA, Victor Oye! Please fact-check me.
Then he moved to the Peoples Democratic Party and also caused havoc in that organisation by insisting on contesting against his former principal.
After splitting the PDP, he joined the Labour Party, which then split into two factions, each producing its own Chairman and NEC.
When he had finished destroying the Labour Party as a viable alternative, he officially joined the African Democratic Congress on Wednesday, December 31, 2025.
After just three weeks in the ADC, the official spokesman of that party publicly called the Obidient movement a "divisive" mob!
And instead of adjusting their behaviour, today, the Obidient movement has released a statement attacking the ADC for calling them divisive!
Now, if you have gone through four very different political parties and ended up with the same result of division, quarrels, and factionalism, the question you should ask yourself is this: Is it the parties that are the problem or Peter Obi?
How can a man who has divided four political parties in a row unite Nigeria? And how can men like Kperogi and Momodu overlook this and blame the President for the failings of these parties?
And then, they also ignore the historical fact that parties in Nigeria tend to splinter when elections are around the corner.
This started right from independence and has continued into the Fourth Republic.
For example, under our government (the Jonathan administration), when the All Progressives Congress was established on Wednesday, February 2013, an alternate All Progressives Congress was established by some persons.
@DailyPostNGR The same gang couldn't stop him when he was a private citizen. How are they going to stop him now that the presidency is firmly in his hands? Dele Momodu na Mumudu man.
