PLOT TO BLACKMAIL PETER OBI EXPOSED!

Dr. Yunusa Tanko, spokesperson for the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has revealed that there is a plot to blackmail Obi by accusing him of playing religious politics.

Tanko stated that powerful political interests have recruited individuals disguised as civil society and non-governmental organizations to carry out this plot.

The aim of the blackmailers is to defame Obi’s altruistic motives in supporting underprivileged Nigerians of all faiths.

They falsely claim that Obi uses religious places for political campaigns off-season.

Obi’s Charity Work Predates Politics

Tanko emphasized that Obi’s charity work predates his involvement in politics. He firmly believes that his charity work is an assignment given to him by his creator.

Obi understands that Nigeria is a secular state and respects the constitutional separation of church/mosque and state.

Tanko reassured that Obi will not be intimidated into changing his personal disposition.

Secular State and Separation of Church/Mosque and State

Nigeria is an undisputed secular state, and it is important to respect the constitutional dictates of separating religion and state.Obi’s commitment to charity work transcends religious boundaries, as he supports underprivileged Nigerians of all faiths.

NIGERIANS MORE POLARIZED THAN EVER AFTER 2023 ELECTION, TINUBU’S UNPOPULAR REFORMS – REPORT

NIGERIA MORE POLARIZED THAN EVER AFTER 2023 ELECTION, TINUBU’S UNPOPULAR REFORMS – REPORT A 2024 report by SBM Intelligence has shown that Nigeria’s economy has continued to worsen. According to the report, rising food inflation, persistent insecurity across all geo-political zones, and more people falling into extreme poverty have worsened the country’s economy. Aside from the worsening economy, it was also reported that the country is more polarised than ever after the 2023 elections. The report described reforms introduced by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as unpopular. Listed among the policies is the removal of fuel subsidies which has been noted as leading to worsening living conditions and closure of businesses. This report comes amid the economic hardship bedeviling Nigerians with worsening inflation such as food inflation, and general inflation. Already, inflation has hit 33.88%, according to data from the National Bureau of Statistics. As of August 2024, the number of Nigerians suffering from food insecurity stood at 31.8 million. Some businesses have also died or left the country due to harsh economic situations. For instance, 61 companies have reportedly left the country in four years due to the economic situation. Despite the government’s assurances, skepticism surrounds its reform efforts, casting uncertainty over their potential to drive meaningful economic change.

IT’S TIME TO END YOUR 31-YEAR-LONG PRESIDENTIAL AMBITION – BODE GEORGE TELLS ATIKU

IT’S TIME TO END YOUR 31-YEAR-LONG PRESIDENTIAL AMBITION – BODE GEORGE TELLS ATIKU A former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Chief Bode George, has advised former Vice President Atiku Abubakar to end his 31-year-long bid to be President. Noting that Atiku’s bid to be President dated back to the year 1993, George said it was high time the former Vice President retired from such a contest, especially in the 2027 election. Addressing a press conference at his Ikoyi, Lagos office, on Thursday, George urged Atiku to assume the position of an elder in the nation and leave his bid to posterity. “To Atiku, my advice is this, you will be 81 years old in 2027, and you have been contesting for the presidency since 1993. This is the time for you to calm down and act like an elder. I appeal to you in the name of the Almighty Allah, that you serve, to take it easy and leave everything for posterity,” George said. George decried that the PDP was on the verge of crumbling because people uplifted their personal interest and individual ambition above national interest. He criticised the “divisive, arrogant, haughty” members of the party romancing the ruling All Progressives Congress yet failed to defect from the PDP, describing them as cowards. “We are where we are today because of a self-inflicted crisis; we should bury our individual ambitions now and not allow the PDP to crumble, please. Elders of the party should tell some of these funny characters to cool off and think of our national interest instead of their personal interest. “Nigerians are angry and hungry. Instead of telling the APC the truth, some divisive, arrogant and haughty members are busy romancing the ruling party and they are quick to refer to themselves as elder statesmen. Instead of instigating a crisis in our party, why are they not bold enough to defect to the APC? Do they really fear God at all? No member is big enough to hold the party to ransom,” George added. Particularly pointing to the crisis between Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, and his predecessor and Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, George urged Wike to immediately “cool off” from wanting to “bring down” Fubara. George said it was worrisome that some party members rather than bringing the two parties to mediation further fuelled the Fubara/Wike crisis for their selfish interests. “My advice to Wike is very simple. You are my political son. I am therefore appealing to him to cool off immediately. I know he was injured by friends during the last PDP presidential contest but I am advising him as a father to please take it easy. Nobody is bigger than any party. Forget what happened in the past and let us work together in the interest of this party. “I want to ask the elders at the helm of affairs of our party today, ‘What exactly is the offence of Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State?’ What exactly is the offence of this gentleman that some elders of our party are trying to throw him under the bus because of political expediency? What exactly is going on that some party members don’t feel bothered about the happenings in Rivers State? Governor Fubara was helped by Governor Wike to become the number one citizen of the oil-bearing state. The governor himself acknowledged this on several occasions. “Must the governor now behave like a slave to his predecessor and other characters because of this concept of godfatherism which is a misnomer in our politics? Why are some party members encouraging his predecessor to bring him down? He is in Abuja; he wants to control what goes on in Rivers…
