So this is @ChibuikeAmaechi fact-checking @PeterObi today in Kano.
Turns out virtually everything Obi said at #NGTheCandidates yesterday about #RailUPng Projects was UNTRUE.

Spending the morning on a Rice Mill in Kano. They’re reporting a massive increase in quantity (and quality) of available paddy - a lot of people have gone into farming, & milling capacity also growing fast. This rice revolution is real, people google.com/amp/s/amp.ft.c…

Local production is up significantly, but we still have some way to go until it meets all of local demand. That’s the simple reason why it’ll take some time for prices to come down to levels Nigerians are anticipating. Demand is still ahead of supply, but supply is growing fast.
MD of one of the Rice Mills in Kano tells me: “A lot of people have gone back to the farms. People are now struggling to find land to farm. Places that were uncultivated before have now turned to farms... It’s not just rice, it’s beans, maize, etc.”
Good morning Ibadan #PMB4Plus4
Music is a brutally effective messaging tool. KWAM 1 on the beat in Ibadan. #PMBinIbadan #PMB4Plus4
Memory Lane: 35 years ago HRH the Late Igwe Edward Anike Nnaji presented @MBuhari with a traditional title: Ezeudo 1 of Anambra State. #PMBInEnugu
These photos from Plateau today are mind-blowing. Thank you @BayoOmoboriowo for capturing these 🔥 images #PMBinPlateau #PMB4Plus4
First time I listened in person to PMB speak was at Chatham House,2011. He told the story of a 1961 UK Summer Holiday Trip awarded by the Shipping Co. Elder Dempster —he was in Form 6, & got the single slot allocated to Northern Nigeria.This week I came across a photo of the trip
I recall him saying how surprised he was that he, with no influential family members, got that single Northern slot, when he had classmates like the late Shehu Yar’Adua, whose father was a Federal Minister. “That was when there was social justice [in Nigeria],” he said.
The Elder Dempster Prize was to reward selection in what was a nationwide competition. (Not sure what the contest involved exactly). At the time the Northern Elite typically sent their children to Barewa College; he was in Katsina Provincial Sec School, where he was Head Boy.
The campaign in Kaduna today is a homecoming of sorts for PMB. Kaduna is where he retired to after his release from a 40-month detention by IBB (following the August 1985 coup) in 1988. #PMB4Plus4
It was during his time as Nigeria’s Petroleum Minister in the late 1970s that the construction contract for the Kaduna Refinery, the 3rd Refinery in Nigeria, was signed.
Benin, where he campaigned yesterday, is where he spent most of the 40-month detention (1985–88)

PMB campaigning in Plateau State today. Also a homecoming of sorts for him. His last military posting before becoming Head of State was in Plateau State. He served as General Officer Commanding (GOC), 3rd Armored Division, Jos, from November 1981 — December 31, 1983.
Yesterday President @MBuhari campaigned in Edo and Delta States, in the South South. Here’s a list of Federal infrastructure and social investment projects in the Zone.

While PMB was campaigning in Edo and Delta, VP Osinbajo was doing same in Karu, Mpape, and Kubwa, all in the FCT. Here he’s in Alhaji Aminu Yekini's home, for Family Chats. #NextLevelEngagements
So that’s how VP @ProfOsinbajo hit the streets after the @BuhariCentre inauguration. This is Gwarimpa Tipper Garage Market. 4+4 all the way. #NigeriaDecides2019 #PMB4Plus4
When he left the Tipper Garage Market, @ProfOsinbajo proceeded on a visit to the home of Mr Madu Inuwa Wagami. He’s from Kwajafa Town in Hawul LGA of Borno State, and has lived in Abuja for almost 20 years. His son, Lt Ibrahim Madu (not present) is a Pilot in the Nigerian Navy.
At the @BuhariCentre today, VP @ProfOsinbajo made campaign telephone calls. One was to a Nigerian resident in Gombe State. “I hope you will vote for us on February 16.” VP also informed the callee of his forthcoming trip to Gombe, and invited him to attend. #PMB4Plus4
