Who is the “Peter” Ayo Adebanjo who has no single electoral value in his Backyard wants to foist on his People ?

Benji Obi writes on Peter Obi’s Politics of Principle and asks … Is Afenifere “Leader” right ?

“Afenifere Leader, Ayo Adebanjo, says Peter Obi is better than Atiku and Tinubu in terms of “Politics of Principles”

What does he mean by Politics of Principle ?

Since joining active Politics, Peter Obi has cross carpeted from APGA to PDP even after enjoying 8 years as Anambra Governor in the Party. And now from PDP to Labour Party. So, where is the principle ?

As a matter of fact, he invested his State money to the tune of $12.24m into International Breweries where his own Company Next International has a stake. Is that part of the principle ?

He built the first Helipad at the Government House, gave away SUV’s to Girlfriends. Is all that the principle Adebanjo is talking about ?

Peter Obi increased the money for his Private Kitchen at the Government to N2m monthly and increased the feeding for the Police Officers attached to him to N7m monthly. But he pocketed the money.

Peter lied when he said he stopped the buffet style dinner being served at the Government House.

What he did was to sack all the previous Cooks and Butlers and employed over 30 Cooks/Butlers/Stewards from Akwa Ibom and expanded the Kitchen budget.

The Bills are still there. It is verifiable … the Akwa Ibom Cooks and Stewards were over 20 … So who were they cooking for ? Buffet is always there … Butlers and others.

Prof Emenike Obi – Principal Secretary withdraws the money every month and pays him … and it is verifiable. Are all these the Principle too ?

He uses the Church to trick People … He is not a true Christian … He attends Olumba Olumba Obu with the Helicopter … always accompanied by Valentine Obieyem.

Ngozi Okoye was the Person who books Private Jets or a Helicopters for Peter Obi whenever he wants to travel.

Peter Obi always uses Private Jets to travel as often as any other State Governor in Nigeria. The records are there and can be made Public.

Peter Obi purchased a Bulletproof BMW for his Wife and two Bulletproof Landcrusiers for himself. He even bought an additional one for his Brother, Damian.

Peter Obi prefers to use Okey Ezeibe to make Vehicle purchases through his Legacy Motors because of a favour granted by Okey Ezeibe when Peter Obi’s Aide and man-Friday.

Valentine Obieyem was arrested hauling N250m from Government House to his private Office in Apapa, Lagos.

In explaining away the reasons for the cash haul, he gave Legacy Motors as an alibi – that the money was for the purchase of Vehicles from a Neighbouring Country through Legacy Motors and that the money was being hauled for Legacy Motors.

He told the anti-graft Agency that the Vehicles being purchased were meant for the various Head of Service (HOS) and other Permanent Secretaries. Peter Obi got the HOS and the PS to play along.

Their reward was Peugeot 406 each. He purchased for each of them a brand new Peugeot 406 each as bribe.

The over 150 Hummer Buses purchased by the State Government under the Public Mass Transport Bill for use for the ANIDS Transport Scheme and it turned out to be a corruption Scheme to benefit an Associate of Peter Obi.

On the eve of Peter Obi’s exit from the Government House, he gave away the entire Hummer Buses to his Associate by name Benji Uba who immediately began repainting the Buses, selling them off and pocketing the proceeds. Not minding that the Buses were State owned.

Peter Obi should be careful the way he opens his mouth because we can expose him to the Public enough to put him behind Bars.

Obiano does not want to probe him. He should shut up.

Peter Obi also received part of the controversial campaign Funds distributed by the Jonathan Campaign Team.

Peter Obi did not even utilize the money given to him for the purpose it was given. He instead used the money for Private Business and to sponsor Local Political Campaigns within Anambra such as that of Uche Ekwunife, Chinedu Idigo and others.

We have information that he is lobbying to avoid being probed.

What he does not know is that President Buhari is a no nonsense Person. He does not take kindly to Hypocrites and corruption.

Peter Obi was “very corrupt”. The then Governor Peter Obi would pack over 6 Suitcases filled with Foreign Currency (mainly Dollars and then take off to see his blood Sister (Matina) who is an ordained Catholic Sister at the Holy Rosary (HRS).

The then Governor Peter Obi would store the Suitcases at the Sister’s residence at the Catholic owned premises.

The suitcases would then find another destination. Peter Obi would engage in the practice repeatedly until her dismissal.

Sister Matina was dismissed from the HRS after she was caught. She left for the Congo following her dismissal but returned to the Government House where she stayed till the end of Peter Obi’s Administration.

Peter Obi’s propensity for primordial corruption and extravagant lifestyle – the type only expected of a Military Dictator – is shown in his relationship with a one-time Girlfriend and Colleague by the name Adaeze Idigo who rose from the position of Deputy Director to Permanent Secretary within the span of 2/5years.

Peter Obi and Adaeze Idigo had a love Child during their young years – a Baby girl. Peter Obi had started his Primary School and Secondary School education in Anambra north senatorial district – the same area where Adaeze Idigo hails from.

Peter Obi attended St Augustine Umuoba Anam and then Father Josephine Memorial Grammar School where he met Adaeze. They two conjugated and gave birth to a Baby Girl in the 70s. She currently resides in Alabama, USA.

When the Peter Obi’s love Child with Adaeze Idigo wedded in the USA, the State Government of Anambra State was represented by Professor Stella Okunna who gave $50,000 on behalf of the State. The wedding took place in Alabama.

Peter Obi’s treatment of Adaeze Idigo was simply extravaganza. She was given a Landcruiser Sport Utility vehicle. Her Mother was given the same along with a Driver paid for by the State Government.

Her family (including the Mum) were relocated to the Suburbs of Enugu – into a new House purchased with the resources of the state.

A Power Generator worth N2m was taken directly from the Government House to her new Residence.

Her brtother, Chuka Idigo who earns a living as a Contractor working almost exclusively for Anambra State Government alone also benefited immensely from Peter Obi’s extravaganza.

He was given numerous contracts without due process. Many of them weren’t executed including the House of Assembly Headquarters… and others.

Peter Obi had wanted the Governorship to be zoned to the North Senatorial District following his exit from the Government House.

He wanted to install Chinedu Idigo”, a Brother to Adaeze Idigo.

They used Chuka Idigo to raise election money through the many Contracts awarded him without due process but it backfired because the People of the North Senatorial District who were aware of the relationship between Peter Obi and Adaeze Idigo rejected the Candidacy of Chinedu Idigo immediately it was announced to them by Peter Obi.

The choice of Willie Obiano was forced upon Peter Obi by the People of Anambra North Senatorial District.

Peter Obi’s Administration was typical of what is expected of a corrupt State Government.

Many of the contract awards were fraudulent and his claim of being financially prudent with State resource is fantasy.

All Contractors must have Accounts with Fidelity back… and all checks are collected at his House.

Peter Obi claims his Administration is not owing any Contractor but “that is a lie” because “contractors were owed… Obiano is silently paying for works done during Peter Obi’s administration”.

Benji Obi is a former Aide to Peter Obi on Intra Party Affairs.
