Peter Obi’s proposal to bring back petrol subsidies exposes an appalling lack of economic sense. Subsidising domestic fuel prices does not solve economic hardship; it actively fuels cross-border smuggling into neighboring nations, draining our national reserves to enrich illegal “cartels” rather than benefiting ordinary Nigerians. Peter Obi’s naive and delulu logic on governance is equally absurd. Brainlessly saying that corruption can be solved simply because he and his immediate family refrain from stealing ignoring how deeply entrenched corruption is across federal ministries and institutions. A President’s personal virtue does not automatically police a massive administrative network that has become entrenched over many decades.
Beyond his delulu economic policy stance, Obi continues to claim he won the 2023 presidential election without producing verifiable proof, demonstrating a preference for delulu populism over facts. Compounding this is his history of fiscal hypocrisy, advocating tight public spending while shifting personal funds into offshore tax havens (Pandora Papers). His approach reflects economic delusion and desperate political theater.
Peter Obi has never been able to come up with any intelligent idea to counter what ASIWAJU Tinubu has been putting in place. The other day, I asked his supporters to PLEASE, indulge me by defending him with tangible evidence of his legacies in Anambra - I got abuses and curses. You can’t compare NELFUND to Obi improving GCSE in Anambra. Obi did not build ONE single school in Anambra for 8 years as governor???
This is the price of petrol in Naira value in neighboring countries recently: (please fact check me)
Benin - 1,649.20
Cameroon - 1,915.20
Ghana - 2,141.30
Imagine Peter Obi making petrol 500 in Nigeria???
Peter Obi is certainly the King of Delulu!

Obi wants to transform, or put us on the road to transformation within 4 years, if elected President ??? Nigeria has a population of over 200 million people. While, Anambra State is about 7 million. Nigeria speaks about 500 languages, while Anambra is one language, Igbo. The land mass of Nigeria is 923,768 square kilometers while Anambra is 4,844 square kilometers (about 191 times bigger).
This is an open invitation to all to “specifically” please, list the things, both tangible and intangible, Obi did for 8 years as governor??? This will be greatly appreciated

Peter Obi’s political flip-flopping has hit a new high.
For years throughout his 2023 presidential campaign and up until just a few weeks ago, Obi repeatedly labeled fuel subsidy an "organised crime," a "scam," and a fiscal drain that Nigeria needed to end. Yet, during his visit to Sokoto, he completely reversed course, telling the crowd that he would bring fuel subsidy back if elected. 
This sudden pivot isn't just bad economic policy; it exposes a complete lack of consistent vision. How can a leader campaign for years on ending a policy, defend its removal, and then promise to restore it the moment he steps into a different region? Reinstating an unsustainable fuel subsidy, a measure that bled trillion-naira holes into national revenue defies basic economic logic and undoes structural reforms necessary for long-term growth.
Peter Obi has shown that his policy positions are entirely dictated by whatever crowd he is speaking to. A leader with no fixed conviction, no consistent economic blueprint, and an unstable, populist mindset cannot be trusted to steer a Nigerian forward. Nigeria needs a firm, principled person, not opportunistic policy somersaults. This Peter Obi has never been able to stand firm on any principle ever, that’s why he has been a political prostitute, going from one party to the other. A weak mind that will compromise Nigeria if elected.

So, I like controversial topics because we are in a free speech society. In the r/nigeria sub, the Nigerian tribalistic, authoritarian, corrupt, etc seems to be rife over there. I got banned there for no reason being put forth so, can the person or people here ensure that they behave in a more civilized manner and state clearly any rules broken or reason why a ban is being imposed. Arbitrarily using your powers to do whatever you like, especially if I don’t support Peter Obi, is irresponsible, uncivilized and undemocratic.
Allow freedom of speech, for the diverse nature of Nigeria to reflect here. Over there at r/nigeria when I criticize Peter Obi, I get curses and abuses which to me is unintelligent. Anyone who doesn’t agree should put forth their counter arguments. If I say I love 💚🤍💚 Nigeria, they start abusing and cursing like they’re ill in the head. Some of them are there only singing the same broken song on and on, that they hate Nigeria, that Nigeria is finished, that they hate their father, mother and all Nigerian elders. They go on and on with gloom, doom, negativity about Nigeria and when you say anything contrary, they attack like feral pack of animals.
Unfortunately, mod(s), you may not like POSITIVE NIGERIAN posts, but that is my style so, deal with it, but don’t be like our corrupt officials and abuse your powers like in r/nigeria, and ban people for not sharing your views, but worst of all is not stating the rule or reason why.

Under the carefully polished image of frugality lies a cold, harsh reality for the civil servants of Anambra State. When Peter Obi assumed office, he inherited severe backlogs of unpaid wages and pensions, including 16 months of verified salary arrears owed to primary school teachers and long-standing debts to workers at the state Water Corporation. Rather than acting swiftly to alleviate the human suffering of thousands who had spent months without income, he left these workers trapped in financial agony while he prioritized political calculations and balance sheets. 
To withhold a person's livelihood for months on end, watching families struggle to afford basic food, healthcare, and rent is a calculated act of indifference, wickedness and heartlessness. Even when his administration finally moved to settle the debts, it was far from complete; of the 16 months owed to the primary school teachers, he paid only 5 months, abandoning the remaining 11 months unpaid alongside unresolved gratuities and Water Corporation backlogs. Leaving vulnerable retirees and workers destitute while boasting of fiscal discipline? That isn't prudential management, it is wicked insensitive heartless governance that placed metrics and bank balances above human life.

We see that the East is producing quite a number of Leaders, Winners and future Presidents.

Tinubu is the smartest and best President of them all - most of them were dumb indeed. That is why we are so backward, because of the actions and inactions of those former mxrxnxc Presidents. Just like Tinubu set the blueprint for the progress we have seen in Lagos, that is how Nigeria can never be the same again after Tinubu, because of what he is putting in place for a better successful Nigeria.

The Director-General and Chief Executive Officer of the Industrial Training Fund (ITF) in Nigeria is Dr. Afiz Oluwatoyin Ogun. In this podcast, he says we are ignoring “Millions of Naira”

Right here on this forum, someone was wondering why Tinubu’s records were inconsistent. That how can we all allow such a person with discrepancies in his documentations be our President. Well Peter Obi (the alternative) has been called out again, that he also has inconsistencies in his name and academic records.
**University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) Certificate:** The date recorded alongside the signatures of the Vice-Chancellor and Registrar on the degree certificate submitted to INEC is **July 14, 1984**.
\*\*\**Calendar Check:* July 14, 1984, fell on a **Saturday**.
**National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) Discharge Certificate:** The date recorded alongside the signature of the NYSC Director-General on his discharge certificate is **March 29, 1986**.
\*\*\**Calendar Check:* March 29, 1986, fell on a **Saturday** (and coincided with the Easter Weekend holiday period of 1986).
**WAEC / WASC Certificate (1979):** Rendered as ⁠Obi Gregory Onwubuasi⁠ (omitting "Peter"). 
**University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) Degree:** Rendered as ⁠Gregory Peter Onwubuasi Obi⁠. 
**NYSC Discharge Certificate:** Rendered as ⁠Obi, Gregory Peter Onwubuasi⁠ (or ⁠Obi, Gregory Peter-Onwubuasi⁠). 
Peter Obi is actually looking worse than Tinubu in this regard. Peter is a fake document peddler?

Though we have the right to freedom of speech, that doesn’t mean we should allow posts that are slop. Some gal or guy will suddenly put forth their face with a video from elsewhere (other social media), and declare that, that is how it is generally in the nation without any reference or evidence. One video in a country with over 200 million people will be used to depict the way Nigerians are, with no back up evidence. We are lucky that there is no creator revenue sharing on Reddit, if not, we would have seen worse.
Can those who want to post here stop reposting TikTok, Facebook, X, etc SLOP here. This place (Reddit), is for community, not for individual personalities. Then some have started showing their faces regularly which may soon lead to bikini or mankini content? By regularly trying to force your (ugly) face on us, it comes off as branding for us to be your regular subscribers? “Tufiakpa”!!!
I am aware that there is little that can be done about these dumb rise of a global phenomenon often dubbed "slop" or "brainrot"—ultra-low-effort, sensationalized, and algorithmic content designed solely to farm clicks, watch time, and engagement. BUT that is not an excuse for us on this subreddit to allow it propagate. This is community forum where we discuss issues unique to us, and concerning us. I don’t want to know you or your (dirty face), I prefer only your thoughts and opinions? Preferably the thoughts and opinions that are useful, informative, relevant, educative, thought provoking, piquant and entertaining.

INTERNATIONAL LAW
The foundational standard for this right is found in Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR):
"Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance."
Article 18(1) of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) uses almost identical wording.)
THE NIGERIAN CONSTITUTION
In the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended), this right is protected under Chapter IV (Fundamental Rights), Section 38 (1):
"Every person shall be entitled to freedom of thought, conscience and religion, including freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom (either alone or in community with others, and in public or in private) to manifest and propagate his religion or belief in worship, teaching, practice and observance."

Nigerias problem is not religion at all so, those posting anti-religious personal vendetta here are lying and also deluded.
THE MOST IMPORTANT PROBLEM (VIRUS) PLAGUING NIGERIA IS STEALING AND CORRUPTION. It cuts across the whole nation from we the citizens, to those who we revere. Rankadede, Odogwu or Babake, and those we supported to govern over us, we are all complicit.
It is obvious that the attack on religion is a personal issue of the perpetrators trying to push their personal agenda. Anyway, we can see through the misguided posts.

FLOODING IN GERMANY, FRANCE AND USA THIS WEEK for the fools and stupid white boy ‘ck skas’
Southern Germany Flooding
Nuremberg Area: Severe storms late Tuesday into Wednesday flooded numerous streets and basements. Emergency services received over 3,000 calls in five hours. Nuremberg Airport was temporarily forced to suspend operations.
Reutlingen: Intense storms brought heavy hail and flash floods, requiring hours of emergency police and firefighter response. About 6,000 households temporarily lost power.
Rhine River Levels: Paradoxically, the rain has been welcomed by shippers. The unexpectedly heavy rainfall in southwest Germany is helping to slightly replenish the river Rhine, which had dropped dangerously low during the recent heatwave.
France Storm Damage
Regional Flooding & Power Outages: Severe overnight storms caused localized flooding and transport disruptions. Around 13,000 households across France remain without electricity.
Ardèche and Sarthe: These departments were hit particularly hard. In Ardèche, massive hailstones measuring several centimetres in diameter accompanied the flash downpours, damaging vehicles and buildings.
Texas Flash Flood Crisis
Severe Rainfall: Isolated areas have received up to 20 inches of rain over the last 48 hours. The region is under a rare Level 4 "high risk" warning for excessive rainfall.
Impacted Areas: The most severe flooding is concentrated west and southwest of San Antonio, heavily impacting Uvalde, Kerr, Kendall, and Hill Country counties.
River Surges: The Guadalupe River rose more than 25 feet in just one hour, sending a massive, deadly flood wave downstream. The Leona River has also hit record crest levels, submerging homes and washing out local highways.
Emergency Response: Governor Greg Abbott has issued a disaster declaration for 59 counties. National Guard teams, high-water rescue vehicles, and Blackhawk helicopters have been deployed, rescuing over 75 people from rising waters so far.
Other Notable Incidents
West Hollywood, California: Aside from weather-driven disasters, a massive water main break occurred early Thursday morning near Sunset Boulevard, sending a torrent of rushing water that flooded local businesses, moved vehicles, and opened up a large sinkhole.

Sometimes, I argue with you guys here hard, because I believe you want to look down on us, but notwithstanding, well done.👍 Still yet, humble yourself.
