Former Edo State governor, Adams Oshiomole has questioned the capacity of the presidential candidate of Labour Party, Peter Obi to fix the country’s insecurity issues, stressing that he (Obi) failed woefully to fix that of Anambra State when he was governor.
In a viral video, Oshiomole recounted how Obi’s successor in Anambra, Willie Obiano struggled with insecurity that he inherited from Obi’s administration.

He charged Nigerians to go on popular video blog site, YouTube and find out how Obiano had to start demolishing dens and hideouts of Bakassi boys, Bakassi girls and bandits that besieged Anambra during Obi’s tenure.
His words: “I think for those of you who are SM (social media) warriors there are issues here that you need to speak to. Go to Google, and look at the first six months of Governor Obiano’s administration in Anambra state. What you will find is Governor Obiano using bulldozers to demolish houses of kidnappers and those who were referred to as Bakassi boys or even Bakassi girls. Who was the governor when Bakassi developed in Anambra? And who solved the problem?”
He contemplated the capacity of Obi to fix the insecurity challenge of the whole country as he has been reported to have been vaunting he can, alluding to his lack of courage to fix his own state’s security issues.
“So if a man could not fix a security challenge in his own state which required courage, how can he convince you that he will fix security challenge all over Nigeria? Don’t take it from me, go to YouTube and find out the first six and nine months of Gov. Obiano and then ask Yousef who was his predecessor,” Oshiomole said.
“Ask Google who was Obiano’s predecessor. If it tells you, it is Peter, and so if he has solved the security problems, will Obiano be demolishing, using bulldozers to demolish people’s houses? Houses of kidnappers, Bakassi boys and girls, bandits. So when they say, I I’ll fix Nigeria, did you fix your state?, Oshiomole continued.

Peter Obi ke? He is dead on arrival. He won't become president of NGR. His Obidumbs are his biggest liability.

President Peter Obi is coming. Nothing can stop an idea whose time has come. Naysayers just want to say anything to make them sleep well at night, still they cant. The truth is glaring. The people have spoken already.

The Bakassi Boys, it could be recalled, emerged in the late 1999, a period of high incidences of security in the commercial cities of the southeast part of the country such as Onitsha, Aba, Owerri and Enugu, among others. It was under the administration of Chinwoke Mbadinuju as governor of Anambra State

PDP HAD THE OPPORTUNITY FOR 16 YEARS TO MAKE NIGERIA GREAT, BUT THEY CHOSE TO TOW THE PART OF KLEPTOCRACY, STEALING THE NATION'S WEALTH MASSIVELY, UP TO THE EXTENT THAT WHEN APC CAME ON BOARD WE WERE MADE TO KNOW THAT THE MONEY THAT MISSED FROM NIGERIA UNDER PDP GOVERNMENT WAS ENOUGH TO BUILD SEVEN COUNTRIES. UNDER THE SAME PDP GOVERNMENT , WE LEARNT THAT THE MONEY LOOTED BY FORMER PETROLEUM MINISTER DIEZIANNI ALISON MADUEKE IS ENOUGH TO BUILD SIX STANDARD INTERNATIONAL AIRPORTS. APC CAME WITH "CHANGE" SLOGAN AND DECEIVED US WE THOUGHT THE CHANGE WAS A POSITIVE CHANGE , ONLY FOR US TO REALIZE THAT IT WAS A NEGATIVE CHANGE. THEY ALSO CAME WITH "NEXT LEVEL" WE NEVER KNEW IT WAS NEXT LEVEL OF FURTHER LOOTING THE TREASURY AND PUTTING NIGERIANS INTO MORE HARDSHIP. IF APC HAD BEEN ABLE TO MAINTAIN WHAT THEY MET ON GROUND WHEN THEY TOOK OVER IT WOULD HAVE BEEN OKAY, BUT RATHER THEY TOOK US BACKWARD AND MADE NIGERIA 500% WORSE THAN IT WAS WHEN THEY CAME ON BOARD. SINCE THESE TWO MEGA-PARTIES HAVE FAILED US LET'S TRY LABOUR PARTY NOW AND IF LABOUR CAN NOT DELIVER NIGERIA AFTER 4 YEARS OF HOLDING POWER WE WILL LOOK FOR ANOTHER PARTY COME 2027. FOR NOW PETER OBI IS OUR NEXT PRESIDENT WHETHER THE DEVIL LIKES IT OR NOT. EVERYBODY SHOULD BE OBI-DIENT. I REST MY CASE HERE.
