FACT-CHECK ; Is Northern Nigerian The Poorest Region In Nigeria? by Nobody: 10:54am On Apr 06, 2023
After this statement on the first frame by peter Obi yesterday,some northerners are of the opinion that peter obi is wrong,and use that as a point to claim that peter obi hate the north.
I decided to do a little research on the issue devoid of religion and enthnic bias ,and below is my findings.

What do you all think ?

Mynd44, lalasticlala don't you think this is frontpage worthy?

Funny enough ,some northern leaders have raised similar concerns inthe past,and I ask, why's peter Obi raising the same concern generating controversy ?

The only conclusion here is that some mischievous elements and propagandists are desperately trying to twist peter Obi assertion to suit a certain political narrative.

They are the enemy of the northerners,that don't want genuine growth in the north.

Obi is not wrong, he is a bigot. Understandeth thou?
A bigot is a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices.
especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (such as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance.


This fact that he takes every opportunity to demarket and talk about the ills of others, especially the North without talking about what is under his nose in the South and South East is the problem. That my friend is bigotry. Half truth is his specialization.

This are actually the elements I spoke about desperately trying to twist the narrative to fit their propaganda.
You're probably in Lagos typing this,and because you're not from any core northern state,you want to play politics with it.
For you information,even some Northern elders have spoken up on similar issue.
So,your propaganda is dead on arrival.

Do you even know the meaning of propaganda? Tell us where Obi has spoken against insecurity and poverty in the South East within this last year. He's blind to it.

One of the problems of this country.
Tribalism and hate for the SE won't let u and ur yoruba people to see anything good in Obi

Obi has consistently spoke about the insecurity in the SE and Nigeria in general

This was in 2021 even before he had the mind to contest👇

Look at them, despite the reality staring them inthe eyes,they decide to play politics with it,just to keep the concerning poverty and illiteracy rate among among their young populace under their control and be used for political gains,and when they are done using them,they will dump them.

Most northern elites are evil.

You again missed the point, charity begins at home. i used Obi's language BTW, he's the one that complained about demarketing Nigeria. He never saw himself doing the same thing.
He needs to speak equally to/about every region about the problems. He's fond of only talking ill of the North and ignoring his own house/region's facing similar problems. That's the definition of bigotry.

You are just a bigot, quick to come in defence of the North as if you truly loved them more. Stop projecting your insecurities on the North, you are simply a bigot, leave the North alone to defend itself.

Northern Nigeria is the poverty Capital of the World according to UNITED NATION and UNICEF.

I wonder why the North is being emotional about it, instead of accepting the truth and holding their leaders accountable.

Is everything DicK measuring?
If the North is not the poverty Capital, tell me which Region in Nigeria the North are richer than in GDP per capita?

Arrewa that is even enlightened would still use sentiments to say North is not poor.

No matter the exposure, a black man remains a black man.

How is that a problem?
You don't want them to fight poverty in the north , why?
How is solving a problem equal to hating the people that have it?

If he faced only SE , you for one will call him partial . Tufiakwa

By your logic, buhari is a bigot.
He hardly delivers any speech both in Nigeria and outside without mentioning biafra and ipob but never mentions his murderous fulani kinsmen...
