Is Mr. Peter Obi Worthy of the Crown?

[00:00:00]I'm to talk with everybody.

[00:00:02]If you make me president >> Who do you negotiate with criminals?

[00:00:05]Who do you negotiate with bandits?

[00:00:07]>> Um we find you uniting the country.

[00:00:12]Anybody who wants peace, I will talk with him.

[00:00:16]>> [clears throat] >> I will negotiate with him. Anybody who wants war will go to war.

[00:00:21]>> Now, I have been waiting for that interview for the longest because I will no longer choose to stay on the sidelines and tell myself, "Oh, but I'm not into politics and I don't care what happens to Nigeria." No, I want to know.

[00:00:33]Play book play by play. Let me know. And if anyone, especially those who still have doubts in his capabilities, please take your time and go watch that video on YouTube. Take your time to educate yourself to know what exactly you're bringing into power. No more would I sit and say, "You know what? I'm not interested in politics. Politics is not my way, so I will be silent." No. My vote is going to count by fire by force this time. Now, one of the few things I look for in a president is number one, compassion, empathy. Let's even leave our abilities and capabilities for now.

[00:01:10]Somebody that cares about their people.

[00:01:12]Somebody that is ready to risk their lives for the betterment of their people and not stay in a glass house because, "Oh, I'm up here and you're down there." Then I look for someone who is capable of representing this country, not just nationwide, but also internationally.

[00:01:31]I am so tired of people that are above a certain age being in power and we do not even understand what they stand for.

[00:01:39]They make a mockery of our country. They make a mockery of each and every one of us, and that's why most of the times when you travel out, you notice that people shade us left, right, and center.

[00:01:49]And let me show you an example of that.

[00:01:51]>> No matter how slippery the bottom of your child, leave the beat there.

[00:02:01]>> Did you guys understand anything?

[00:02:04]Did you guys understand what the present president of Nigeria said there? Because tell me how that relates to insecurities. And for the first time people did not clap because it just didn't make sense. I need to be proud of my country and the leaders who lead this country. I cannot always hide my face when people ask me, "Oh, where are you from?" Nigeria. Oops. No. We need capable leaders that can represent us correctly. Now, for that specific clip that I posted about Mr. Peter Obi, I do not 100% agree with that statement because he said, "Listen, when it comes to peace he's ready to speak to anyone and when it comes to war he's ready for war." Now, that's the one statement after watching the whole video that I did not agree with because I'm sorry.

[00:02:50]When it comes to the safety of Nigerians and our people and our lands, you cannot be emotional when it comes to that. You cannot tell me, "Yes, he said he went to different universities and had discussions with different criminals." There are levels to this.

[00:03:05]There's a criminal that could just steal a car real fast and there's a criminal that owns our lives and beheads people.

[00:03:10]I would meet, personally I would never show compassion to those kind of people because tell me how you want to, let's say, create peace and reintegrate these kind of people into our society. But of course, there's time to go through what works best. I love the fact that he said, "Listen, I am ready to die for my country. I am ready like there's no even if I'm outside the country and something happens to Nigeria I am ready to come back and I am willing." That's a man who has compassion. That's a man who has a dream. Putting the safety and well-being of his people before anything else. Now, when I look at leaders, I look at patterns and it's not just leaders. I do the same thing in my personal life with people. I look at patterns. Where have you been? Where did you come from? How do I explain who you are today? I look behind because we are no longer going to fall for words. If there's one thing politicians know how to do is speak good English.

[00:04:06]They can sell They can sell water to the ocean and we're not doing that no more.

[00:04:11]Now, when I look at Mr. Peter Obi, let's talk about him as a governor in Anambra State. Like he said, as he exited his seat, he made sure all pensions were paid, all salaries were paid. He even left extras for them so they are taking care of while the system is changed.

[00:04:30]There is no leader right now in Nigeria that could claim and boast of leaving 150 million dollars in their accounts.

[00:04:40]And I know for years they have tried in the last 3 years they have tried to call him all kinds of names and slander him and say oh he took money here and took money there. Bro, if he was a criminal and if he was a thief, there's no way he would have left that money behind. It is impossible.

[00:04:57]He focused on the people. He sorted out terrorism in his community and he walked away with his head high. Now, people try to peg little little money here. What is 10 million naira compared to 150 million dollars? Like are you Are we kidding each ourselves? Look for leaders that have integrity. A lot of people complain today because oh the economy is bad and this is that and that. Put them in power and you see how they change.

[00:05:26]They only complain because it affects their lives. They don't complain because they would do any better. Majority The average Nigerian right now is looking for an opportunity to steal from the public. They look for the opportunity. This is the system that has been created. This is the system we have adopted ourselves in. Why do I like Mr. Peter Obi? I like the fact that he doesn't sell stories to us. He doesn't try to sugarcoat and make us feel like oh my God, he's going to bring the moon down for us. No, he's like listen, in this timeframe, this is exactly what I'm going to do. Now, when he spoke of subsidy, I'm not going to like me personally, I felt okay, maybe he'll bring back subsidy. But he says he would have done the same thing, but before you take out such a big part of Nigeria, you have to create other opportunities.

[00:06:15]You have to create a balance that everyone is still good. What does it matter if the country is still falling down? So, let's build it up. Let's focus on our hospitals. Let's focus on our schools. And when I tell you education is key, don't let anybody fool you. Yes, it is good to have street smarts, but that education is mega. Why do you think they have kept the north in poverty and uneducated for so long? Because realistically, have you ever listened to a a northerner speak the educated ones?

[00:06:45]Have you ever listened to them speak?

[00:06:47]They're extremely educated. They actually sound and look like they have the capability of changing the nation.

[00:06:54]These are future leaders, but of course, they don't want that because if we have great people in power and people with integrity, it would affect their own personal plans because Nigeria is their own personal business for them. So, let them keep the north uneducated. Let them keep them in poverty. So, when they come with their little bags of rice, everybody's like oops. Have you noticed how the present government right now only gives rice to the north, but gives other equipments, wheelchairs, and all kinds of things to other parts? They bribe the people. And now, I know everyone is curious. Oh my God, what would you do with electricity? What would you do with this? Trust this man.

[00:07:34]Just trust him.

[00:07:36]This is why our platforms are very important right now because we will hold our leaders, our new leaders accountable. We will no longer be silent. But, trust this man. This man is well-traveled. He's educated. He has done his research. He has done his work.

[00:07:53]Find this. If he tells you he's going to bring electricity to Nigeria, please believe it. I don't know why I have so much faith in him, but I believe it.

[00:08:03]Mr. Peter Obi should have been the president of Nigeria as of 3 years ago, but of course the system failed us. And we all sat down silently because we were scared. We were scared that we would be unalived if we spoke. But, guess what?

[00:08:17]We would not stay silent no more.

[00:08:20]This man has the Nobody can tell me anything. This man has the capabilities to make this country great again.

[00:08:28]To make it that when you travel out your head is held high. And when it's done correctly, any other leaders coming behind him would have to follow suit. We cannot allow the system fail us again. A lot of these leaders never wanted him in power because they knew he would hinder their own magomago in there. Oh, they make They painted him like, "Oh, he's stingy. He's this." No, this is a very calculated man that understands the power of money and understands where it should go. And that's is what you should focus on. Even if we end up paying more taxes, guess what? Let's fix our system for once. I am tired of putting hope in people and saying, "Oh, vote correctly." No, I'm telling you this is where I am. We die here. Because I'm sorry, like look at patterns. Look at where he came from. A lot of people will say, "Oh, but Tinubu made Lagos."

[00:09:22]Where? Because We don't even have good water. We Our canals are dead. The The state smells.

[00:09:28]There's nothing There's I don't know how many bombs are in the roads. Like, please show me what was built because I don't see it. I don't see it.

[00:09:37]And I'm sorry, I would never put faith into a government that decides to close their eyes to their people. They decide to do festivals when their people are still in the bush. And look at even Oyo state governor right now telling us, "Oh, this time next month." So, you want our children to stay another 1 month in the forest? Like, are we serious?

[00:09:56]It should have been a complete shutdown in Nigeria by now.

[00:09:59]Please vote correctly.
