OBIDIENT IS NOT ABOUT LABOUR PARTY

YOU CANNOT ADOPT POLITICS AS A PROFFESSION AND REMAIN HONEST.

OBIDIENCE is not about Labour Party, it is an IPOB insurgency on the social media and this is why, Pat Utomi and Peter Obi, the two Politicians motivated by some dark and hidden grievance after loosing out in People Democratic Party and All Progressive Party APC, created Obidient, a loutish, unruly rabbles of uncouth people, a group  gradually turning the 2023 elections to a hobbesian political environment.

It is sad but true that this two politician have created an intimidating and Frankenstein vehicle of falsehood distortions, disinformation and disharmony in the social media for the  elections coming up next year.

Obidient politics, not Labour Party have turned out to be an IPOB resurgency and  the biggest threat to the Nation’s 2023 Presidential election.

This pro-Biafra  keyboard warriors, made up of cyber bullies, E- rats, Yahoo vermin and internet bandits, like an evil genie released from a pandora box have brazenly seized the cyberspace with an unprecedented fables, falsehood and stomach turning lies never seen in an election. This sinister forces caught many Nigerians napping.

Suddenly, in the run up to next year election, the forces of Obidient have unleashed intimidation, distortion, disinformation and disharmony, harassment and confusion in a political momentum in an uncanny frenzy that have dazed its opponents to numbness.

This Pro Biafra  intenent warriors are miles ahead in their creative impudent  of  vile and vicious propaganda and falsehood and it is not possible for their victims or anyone to respond appropriately or catch up  to their lies and falsehood, because  no one gets to his or her  destination when you throw stones
at every dog that bark at you.

The Obidience rabble have also made it almost impossible for Nigerians to know what to believe or what is true and what is not, therefore making it virtually impossible for voters to make up their minds for an objective  assessment on the aspiring political candidates.

OBIEDIENT is not labour party because they have different ideology. This also reminded me two years ago before Nnamdi Kanu was arrested that the.same people created a vicious and morbid propaganda about Muhhamadu Buhari whom they claim  was dead and some Fulanis, have cloned a Sudanese called Jubril who is now presently ruling us as President.

And because of how this wicked propaganda was globally and excellently executed, despite my level of exposure and knowledge I initially believed the story like many other Nigerians  and up till now, there are still people especially pro Biafra people who still spill a yarn that one Jubril from Sudan is our President and not PMB.

These horde are not rookie Yahoo / 419 champions they  have over the years profited  handsomely by cooking up falsehood and phathom business deals to defraud innocent foreigners  on the Social Media. They have the expertise in selling lies, falsehood, fake products and services to gullible markets.

And they certainly  consider the Obidient Internet assignment as just another Yahoo business that may eventually pay dividend like every (advanced fees fraud) game this scalliwagg are opened to.

OBIEDENT is not about Labour Party reasons this horde and rabble rouser are not campaigning with the Labour Party Structure so to speak.

Peter Obi is running with Obident and not Labour Party.

Obident is an Igbo  secret cult to distabilize Nigeria for those who have eyes to see and ear to listen.

The riddle for me and many Nigerians is that Obiedent is not on the ballot and why are this people not promoting Labour Party that is open for voters.

Peter Obi himself may not be in the inner caucus of this evil secret cult as recent event have suggested.

It was reported in the news media recently that when Obi cautioned his supporters to allow him respond to issues surrounding his Presidential campaign, he was shouted down by the Mob of Internet bandits on the social media.

People who operated like hoodlums and street urchins told Obi to mind his business and not tell them how to champion his Presidential campaign.

UNMASKING PAT UTOMI AND PETER OBI.

The most obstinate illusions are  ultimately broken by FACTS.
Trevor Roper.

Pat Utomi as usual have announced himself as the Intellectual pathfinder and powerhouse of Obidient, and I believe those who are familiar with his history will  not be surprised, because he had always projected and packaged himself with the arrogance of being the Nation foremost Public Intellectual.

Somtimes in early 80s Pat Utomi walk into the  Public Affairs of an Airline, and i took him to my Chairman for a meeting, before you could say Pat,he wiped out a piece of paper and biro and proceeded to teach I and my Chairman how to manage  an Airline.

I have never witness that type of inellectual arrogance in my life for a total stranger to walk into a man office and believe a Chairman  who set up an Airline needed tutorial  from  an outsider on how to run his business, after that meeting we never gave him another audience.

Shortly after he was employed to work with Alex Ekweme the Vice President under Shehu Shagari goverment 1979- 1983 (just a 3month stint)

When Shagari was overthrown  by Muhhamadu Buhari he lobbied and was appionted Managing Director of Volkswagen  Nigeria Ltd which he successfully ran aground few years later.

After running Volkswagen aground he had been advertising, promoting  and profiling himself as a Wizkid  Economic Adviser to the President (a three months stint ) and created all kind of smokescreen as public intellectual   with answers to all political, economical, sociological and management problems, an expert who  teach  Nigerians to understand if two birds were on a tree he can educate them  to know the bird that will fly away first.

The Military government of that era saw through his intellectual arrogance and narcissism as a hustler and rightly ignored him.

Intellectual pursuit is a humble and personal growth endearvour and why Socrates that father of Philosohpy once said “the more you know the less you know that you know”, that is human knowledge is so vast that human mind cannot even  measure it and  that all we know can only be a subjective perception contesting with  billions other understanding,and i personally think it is intellectual fraud for anyone to claim to know it all.

In 1999 Pat Utomi was one of those who submitted postional development papers to Bola Tinubu as Alliance for Democracy Governor of Lagos State.

And in 2003 from no where Utomi suddenly surfaced with Wole Soyinka and declared himself as a Presidential candidate and ready to run for that office, a clear manifestation of hubries and conceit by a man with a bulimic ego who never contested as LG chairman, parlimentarian senator or Governor but his Presidential  ambition fizzled out without getting off the ground.

Under Goodluck Johnathan he was in his usual game of romancing Niger Delta Governors with different kind of developmental proposals and agenda and in his well known condescending intellectual manner most of this proposals were done on the pages of Nigerian  Newspaper by a self seeking know it all individual.

Due to the fact that Goodluck Johnathan and Niger Delta Governors rejected him he worked for Buhari in 2015 with intention of profiting from his support.

However when there was nothing coming from Buhari and APC governors and maybe  failed to understand  that people have seen through his intellectual pretence, a man who earlier wanted to contest as President throw his hat into the ring for Delta State gubernatorial primaries of APC in 2019 but again came a distant fifth in the contest.

Pat Utomi is a typical Nigeria political harlot and a study in political prostuition and chicanery   with the added distinction of a chameleon and the intellectual pretence of speaking with two sides of the mouth without blinking an eye.

However, when the story of next year  election season be told Utomi will carry the blame and burden with Peter Obi as the two Igbo chaps that stimulated a resurgence of  IPOB in an election year in a country presently battling to wriggle itself out of the debris of  polarizing and divisive political  hole PMB have dug it into.

PETER OBI: A Scheming  Machiavellian Politician

Peter Obi is a subtle calculating  machavellian politcian who commenced his political journey in People Democratic Party PDP  in 1999 but after seeing no future for himself in that party, he plotted  a scheme that successfully seduced and  lured Emeka Ojukwu aka IKEMBA into politics after studing the man as an ambitious egoistic power hungry man.
When the IKEMBA relocated to Anambra from Lagos and married Bianca Onoh,  Obi saw how the Anambra people were hero-worshipping a man who lost the Biafra war as a hero, he and his associate were able to convince Ikemba that he is the greatest Igboman living and  can run for the the Presidency of Nigeria and win.

Ikemba a man full of hubries and conceit who had earlier lost a Senate election in 1983 when Shehu Shagari rehabilitated him after state pardon for leading a rebellion  played along.

Peter Obi and political friends were not interested in a book written by General  Alexander Madiebo, the Head of Biafra Military during the Civil War and Professor   Ben Nwabueze one of Igbo leading legal minds  heaping and putting the blame of the  Biafra fiasco and  failure on the poor leadership provided by Emeka Ojukwu.

In Yorubaland as in all  sane society  a war leader who  lose a war does not come back home, it is a taboo, every  Captain of a ship must go  down fighting with his sinking vessel not bail out to heroic applause, reason Igbo politics is always shrouded in mystery to outsiders.

Furthermore Igbo politics have always being controlled by the traders group since Louis Odumeagu Ojukwu, Ikemba’s father started sponsoring  Nnamdi Azikwe party NCNC in the first Republic.

Main reasons Igbo politicians who are intellectuals like KO Mbadiwe, Mboni Ojike etc and co were sidelined because Sir Louis  Odimeagwu Ojukwu and his trader group were the one calling the shots.

After the civil War the educated Igbo elites denounced Emeka Ojukwu political  ambition as shameless for a man who lost a war in which over million perish but the traders group beholden to his late father supported him and his ambition.

Obi and co travellers formed APGA and gave the Presidential ticket to him which they know he can never win but their laser focus was winning the  State governorship election through Ikemba  towering influence.

And the gamble paid  off when Peter Obi won the 2003 Anambra election
Obi eight years rule of Anambra was mediocre and he provided  nothing as legacy projects because he had none.

After Ikemba’s death and Willy Obiano wanted to recontest in 2018, Obi was trying to play Tinubu of Lagos, and when his   pretence to godfatherism failed he moved back to PDP despite  publicly swearing on Oat  to Ikemba never to ever live or abandon  APGA  for as long as he is in politics.

Obi was already sitting in Political limbo   when PDP lost that election to Willy Obiano of APGA in 2018 but fortune smiled on him when  Abubakar Atiku picked him as VP which rehabilitated his sagging and moribund  political carrier and brought him back to relevance,Obi and Atiku however lost to PMB in 2019 elections
Fast forward to Anambra election this year 2022 Peter Obi candidate was trounced and defeated again by newcomer Charles Soludo of APGA.

The intresting thing about Soludo victory is that the former Governor of Central Bank was the chap Obi defeated for his second term victory in 2010 under APGA banner, but early this year Obi of PDP failed to win over APGA, a conclusive verdict that he had lost political relevance in his home state.

WHY OBI RAN TO LABOUR PARTY.

After PDP lost to Charles Soludo of APGA  early this year election, Obi was still hopeful of running with Abubaker Atiku like happened in 2019 but he is also aware that many political tendencies are clamouring for PDP to zone its Presidency to the South and he actually seeked Abubakar Atiku approval before launching his Presidential nomination under PDP, reasons he attended Atiku’s  Presidential declaration before launching
his own.

However, when poltical  horse trading  started properly within the PDP caucuses  and he decovered that a man who had lost elections twice that is( 2018 and 2022 ) in his  home state of Anambra  have no bargainig powers to flout and also discovered Atiku will not give him the ticket again as VP Obi opted out and gave “no sissy” as reason before he is publicly written  off as a tired and expired political force.

In my view Peter Obi Presidential ambition on the face value is the most hilarious thing in next year election and may also be an upcoming Nollywood political blockbuster act Nigerians are eagerly expecting to watch.

People are wondering how a man with zero political base and structures and running on the platform of a moribund  Party with virtually Zero membership base wants to run and win elections as his supporters are suggestion is still a great mystery to many.

But one irrevocable fact is that the IPOB structure on the social media have surrendered their  Internet platform personally to  Obiedient  but not to Labour Party which Obi intend to run
Obiedient is not in the ballot but Labour party and the question is why are people campaigning by a name that is strange to INEC.

Obidient is a Cult with a sinister agenda, it is not selling any developmental programme, policy or agenda  which is gradually unfolding for all to see and certainly not about Labour Party.

I want to sincerely wager a guess that since Peter Obi earlier brought Emeka Ojukwu to partisian politics the rump of that group have teamed up with IPOB and manipuating other people with the big fat lie that Obi recently ran as VP and consequently can win election nationwide for Ndigbo.

Moreover i want to believe  IPOB agenda is not in tandem with Peter Obi ambition ,so far it seems to me this separatist group are trying to create election Anarchy as they have successfully done in Biafra land, and the truth so far whether anyone believes this or not they have successfully also done so on the social media,

WE will sit back at the ringside and watch as the campaign start proper and see as things unfold  how.far they wish to go and how far they can go with this obnoxious and sepratiist agenda.
