Dream-state Confrontation With Mr Peter Obi (LP Presidential Candidate)

~6.7 mins read

I Love to stay neutral in politics, because I know that as humans, the older you get, the dirtier your hands... No one is clean, so try not to make one look dirtier or cleaner.

--------------------------------------------

After a hard night's job, I laid down to sleep as I would usually do in the mornings...

I may have been having hypnagogic hallucinations, because I was very tired and drowned in coffee the previous night. Nigeria’s election was the last on my thought.

But as I closed my eyes, it was Mr Peter Obi I saw. I can remember the conversation went with the following theme:

Me: Oh! You don’t come here; don’t think being a namesake means anything to me. You are not perfect and you know it, we both know your flaws, why do you have to act like you are perfect?

PO: Peter, I have to be a good example. I have not stood anywhere to claim purity

Me: Well Mr. Peter, let the people decide. I do not have the perceptive qualities the masses have, I am not in the country.

And, Look Peddling drugs or being corrupt is just like having other weaknesses. We all have weaknesses and we as Nigerians are our own problem. We cannot judge them by their weaknesses, just because yours is concealed. Please leave

PO: Peter, do you expect failures just because you have weaknesses? What about effort? What about your sacrifices? You claim every good person would go to a place in heaven with all their flaws?

Me: Mr Peter, I need to be convinced.

He left….

This night he came again and the confrontation continued

PO: Can I ask you?

Me: Yes

PO: Someone has to win right? Tell me who and why?

--------------------------------------------

At this point, I attempted to see beyond the material, beyond what could be easily manipulated. Educational qualifications and public integrity and persona can be falsely curated and are not true representations of people. In my dream, I tried to hold what I could see that would be hard to curate.

What did each candidate have to loose and how natural are their supporters?

--------------------------------------------

Me: Mr. Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has got it all to win, and he can transform Nigeria.

Accusations of drug peddling or media goofs are not enough to write him off. There are many genuinely good people who use these hard drugs and these compounds were first isolated and used by good people, no moral case, and if the government completely decriminalizes drugs, that artificial sin is completely washed away. And the media goofs? Well, he is old, doesn’t mean he can’t think, he may have social anxiety or be on any spectrum of social disorder that doesn’t necessarily hinder his comprehension or ability act in the right capacity as president. He isn't a good public performer.

But the people of Nigeria who strive to do good no matter how slow or weak, have tried to see things without sentiments and prejudice and think they have nothing to hold on him as collateral for failure to perform, his family is too powerful, he is old, and seems to have nothing to loose.

Worse, it looks like the forces of nature are angry at him. His house is divided and powerful members of his household are offering worship and making libations for his downfall.

It is not written in his destiny to be Nigeria’s president, he is a king maker. If he forces it, the outcome may be disastrous.

Past VP Atiku Abubakar, has a good command of charisma. Atiku chased academia and brought in a medical doctor, yet time has proved without number that it’s not education that matters when it comes to leadership.

His past doesn’t nullify him, we all have a past and we are all capable of change, but his mind is not steady on his goal, he is seriously distracted and is contemplating stepping down for you.

Gov. Wike is too adventurous and opinionated to settle with Atiku. He has your back.

The people also do not have anything to hold him by, he is too powerful to held accountable.

He doesn’t have enough offerings of pure worship behind him too.

Sowore, is campaigning for the next election. He would eventually get his conscience and pour it all out for you. This is a typical Yoruba man, he knows when to pay homage, and he knows when to fight. He is just experimenting, he is patient and he will strike someday but in the future.

Now, look at you, you don’t look tough. Can you shoulder this? You are going to get everything wrong from the onset, but they will all turn out right, because you don’t do it yourself. You understand there is a force behind you. You have no experience, but like Mahatma Gandhi who defeated the British without weapons, you would prevail.

According to numerology, you are Leo, a natural born leader.

You have been saddled with the responsibility of quenching the thirst for Biafra in the east.

Past VP, Atiku Abubakar and President Mohammad Buhari would be happy when you win. Buhari is a good man, but it wasn’t his destiny to turn Nigeria around. And people like Buhari have a natural likeness for people like you, whom he tried to model after but nature kept failing him. He did give his best. He would try all he can to peacefully deliver you to the people, you are his peace offering.

But do you want to do this? You have a lot at stake.

You have a massive reputation to protect; you would be under so much pressure to perform that you would rather give your life.

You are a born priest, whatever evil you do would hunt you faster.

And if you fail, everyone behind you for nothing but good fails

1. The youth (there would be no fire left)

2. Every single Bishop, Priest, Reverend sister in Nigeria

3. Every single Muslim who decided to look beyond religion (Religion/Spirituality is often placed above politics)

4. The Catholic Church (Despite not an ordained priest, you have achieved a status like that of a catholic Bishop, your failure would badly tarnish the image of the Catholic Church)

5. The entire south-eastern state (It would be their last shot in a long, long time if you fail)

No other candidate has the level of pressure you are putting on yourself. You would have been happier without this responsibility. Can’t you see the game is unfair to you? Why do you play?

You are presenting your life to Nigeria, and then they must grab every inch of it.

It is your destiny to be on seat when the country would be turned around.

The world and Africa is behind you, many people have joined their minds with yours to create the huge ball of energy influencing the tide of events.

If this destiny is overturned, the payment would be tears and blood.

Congratulations Mr. President

Then I woke up. Grateful it was a dream…I am honestly not prepared to meddle in political matters.

My stand

All the candidates are great people and they would each make great presidents. I don’t have abilities to read people’s minds. I do not know any of the candidates personally to vouch for any of them. This is my stand.

How Much Are You Willing To Pay For PEACE

~1.6 mins read

Do you believe that having a honest, intelligent conversation with people can mend your differences?

Then you haven't really had any worthy disagreements with anyone (or you havent been exposed to real life issues).

Wait till you do.

And before you say, someone is talking trash.

Do you think no one in the world is smart, intelligent, holy or moral enough to broker peace between Russia and Ukraine? You think people smarter, thoughtful and who have access to more resources than you do haven't tried to broker peace?

You think smart couples like Bill & Melinda gates, who can afford anything money can buy, didn't attempt to have a conversation?

Infact! There are times when trying to get a conversation leads to an escalation.

Wake up (I am not referring to the woke movement here)!!!

There are many differences that are meant to be! (It's called conflict of interest) because the other party is asking you to give them all you have.

It takes "more than one person" to create peace.

The price of toxic peace is prison (or lack of freedom) which is worse than war itself.

To put things in perspective, imagine the other party with two eyes asking for your right eyeball because he seems to have more power, but your right eye is your only working eye, do you give your only eye to someone who has two or you die fighting with it?

If you still can't grasp what I m saying at this point (you are not dumb) somethings are best explained by experience (and you are not a fool either). You can't explain labor pains to anyone who hasn't experienced it.

It's only the liberated who have given up (or have completed) their responsibilities that can give up everything, even their own life without a fight.

Note: Before you try WAR, try PEACE

Where And How To Promote Your Posts? Please Read

~1.5 mins read

No matter how great your posts are, if it doesn't reach your target audience. It would be a wasted effort.

The aim of every influencer is to get themselves or their work (or both them and their work to be noticed).

To get noticed, you need to promote your posts to the people who would love it and even share it without asking them to.

This is not just a list of groups you can share your posts, it explains how to use the list to your best advantage.

1) Facebook groups

You don't have to join just any Facebook group. Look for niche groups that you can tailor your post towards (relationship groups, News groups, exams group, memes group, comedy and entertainment groups, various educational groups, international news groups, Nigeria news groups, etc)

Introduce yourself in those groups and ask for permission to post atleast one article pertaining to the interest of that group daily. If the admin(s) declines your request, respect their wishes and move to another group.

2) Twitter

Twitter is very popular in Nigeria. Look for trending topics on Twitter. Create post about those topics, then share your post on Twitter with the trending topic hashtags.

3) Your class, school or religious groups

If you take permission from your rep to post content that would be useful to everyone, I am sure the permission would be granted.

Just make sure the post you are making would appeal to people in these groups

3) Nairaland

It seems to still be very popular among Nigerians.

4) Word of mouth

Tell your friends to support you, by signing up on Pejoweb and leaving likes and meaningful comments on your posts. If they are trully your friends/family, they would join and support you.

To get great results, you must put in great effort.

Please add your own list in the comments to benefit every influencer and aspiring influencer.

What To Post? Ideas For Pejoweb Influencers

~2.6 mins read

1) Self-help and Tutorial articles

If you have skills that you think are not easy to acquire and/or there are not enough online resources to teach people, you can create your own free course or tutorial and you can even ask people to donate money to you if you put in enough work to help people solve their problems (This is the power of creating and sharing thoughtful articles that really add value to peoples lives).

This isn’t limited to just skills. You can also share some of your family cultures and way of life/life hacks (a way we or our families have of doing things that isn't as common but we know they work and make our lives easy). These might be health remedies you are sure work even though it’s not medically approved, it could some spiritual or religious or even kitchen/social tips/psychological tips that work but aren’t popular.

2) Educational Tutorials

If you are in school, you can post past questions of your department, departmental notes that can be helpful to other students, explanation of hard topics, Assignments and their answers, how to find a way around your school for new students. Etc.

3) Create your own news

To create your own news (It is better than copying and pasting already posted news)

Follow Big celebrities, public figures and social media handles of countries like Nigeria, USA, Russia, China etc. People are usually interested in controversial news coming from big countries, public figures or Celebrities. People also use their lives as motivation and to learn lessons.

You can create original news out of any of their controversial posts or life. Or share your opinions about them, good, bad or even neutral posts about your favorite celebrities.

You can also create news out of trending topics of the world and Nigeria. For example, Politics is trending right now in Nigeria, the war in Ukraine, the protest in Iran etc. Some trending topics in the world and Nigeria right now are Elon musk, Twitter, Metaverse, Asuu strike, Peter Obi, Tinubu, Atiku, James brown etc (you find out). You can also look for trending topics in your school, church, locality (This would work if you belong to a group where the people from this community are present)

Look for the right caption, you have to think about it carefully. If your title isn’t good enough, people would find it hard to click your link.

4) Already Published News

To post news that has already been carried by other blogs, make sure you post it no more than 30 mins after the first news blog has carried it.

Old news must be recaptioned in your own sentence

5) Extreme opinion and Controversies

You can create opinion and controversy over anything. You don’t have to fake it. Just give your honest opinion on events, you can’t get everyone to agree with you anyway and that’s your controversy. Note that Opinions and controversies would not work if they don’t appeal to you.

Please add your own ideas to the list in the comments. The ideas are not exhausted here

NOTE:

Find a way to make your post appealing, engaging and interesting to your target audience.

Cut off boring parts of your article.

Work on your grammar and spellings. They improve the standard of your posts.

Be patient, very patient. If you want to grow your influencer lifestyle to pay, you have be patient and we saying look at 6months to 1 year of consistency to see yourself go viral. If you hit popularity before this time frame you are really good.

Your Wants Are Just Your Feelings Speaking

~0.5 mins read

Want goes with Feelings

Need goes with Reality

We have turned our needs into our wants and our wants into our needs?

Why does society ask school children to find out what they want to become instead of what they need to become?

The first thing to get right when you become serious with your life is to find the difference between your wants and your needs. It's not as easy as it sounds.

To get it right, you have to separate your feelings from the reality

It is from what you need that you would get what you want.

My Twisted Fate With Ahmed

~1.8 mins read

It was in 2016 that Ahmed was telling me "Peter, you should be yourself". He was reading a book that asked people to be themselves.

I thought he misunderstood the book. The thing is I had lost my way, I became an academic and I was loosing my core self. I was brainwashed by mainstream and scientific media. I listened to people who said don't be yourself because, what if being yourself is being a wussy.

So I thought I was right. I argued against him, I told him it's not everytime you must be yourself. One reason I stood my ground against him was because I also thought he was not disciplined enough to be himself.

For him being yourself could mean you live with a landlord who doesn't allow alcohol, but get drunk and go back home. He meant show your true color every single time. Never ever pretend even if it is disrespectful, or even lethal but I fought back, it wasn't logical just a great analysis.

Today, I find myself highly opinionated, I find me screaming Authenticity on the top of my voice. I find myself saying to myself and everyone else "Be yourself" no matter what. If the true you is being a wussy, then be that wussy. It only quickens your path.

If you are truly a terrible person, know it that you would down. Show your trueself and you would go down but smoothly.

And if you are truly a great person (not what you think, I mean genueinly) then show your trueself, you would go up faster.

Today I look back and see " Ahmed was right" I wasn't being myself. I had gone through the educational system, going through my second university. I was training to become the alpha I am not. I did not know who I had become and I was broken.

Today, I know where I belong. I know education isn't everything, and I know spirituality is humanity.

This is in note of my friend Ahmed, sent ahead of me to Gambia as a first hand guardian. Our Fate is twisted!!!

Just a sidenote: This post doesn't intend to say Ahmed is an entirely authentic individual, it emphasizes on the advice he shared from the book he read. Just to clarify 😊

One Thing You Must Know About The Past!

~0.5 mins read

The past is gone and there's nothing you can do about it, at the moment.

Never Cherish it and Never Regret it.

The only action to take is to learn from it

It must never be able to cause you pain 😫 or cause you joy 😊

The past is gone, throw away the joyful memories along with the sad ones, there's nothing you can do about memories

It's easy to say but hard to do.

You must do! What you must do!!

I LOVE YOU ❤️
