There are remnants of truth in these kinda thing . But all power players understands that power can't remain in one place for too long ,else it will self-destruct. Ulterior motives or not, northern Nigeria wants to remain relevant in the polity of Nigeria. And to me, that is understandable.

Aribisala is a bad infuence on todays youth and people should be wary of him.
If an elderly man like Aribisala can not call spade a spade, then the youths are in trouble.
Agenda or no agenda, it is not right for president Goodluck to agree to one tenor only to deny saying such.
This is why majority of the SW were like " abeg make this man carry him wahala go front and I believe maladministration and that his wife is another factor.

ogb5:
Who does not know the north has an agenda?

Do you think that they sacrificed their children to be kidnapped and raped, and their infrastructures destroyed through self bombing just for Tinubu to call the shots?

Mba, the north has an agenda quite right.

They have started by laying claim to the positions of Senate president and Speaker of the House simultaneously.
This is the 1st time any region will be asking for both seats in addition to the presidency at thesame time.

The malams have definitely arrived.

Gbawe:
Yes the "evil" North always has a 'sinister' agenda. Can Aribisala now shut up? The guy is so retrogressive and annoying. He is also very dishonest and shamelessly revisionist. There is a lot to admire about Buhari and there is a lot to admire about Tinubu also. Both want what is best for Nigeria. Same way they put aside ideological differences to defeat the PDP is how they will work together to make Nigeria great.

While the PDP can only give Nigeria the 'dead weight' called Sambo, Tinubu put forward Osinbajo who is a brilliant man who can deputise effectively for Buhari any time and any day. We know Aribisala grew up in the days of the North and South 'cold war' but someone needs to tell him that Buhari is not Adamu Ciroma et al and that the likes of Kwanwaso, El-Rufai, Tambuwal et al are the new face of Northern leadership that is pro-people and want to work with the rest of Nigeria to secure the development of the common man.

Aribisala should spare us his bitterness. The evil Party he supported and glorified has been deposed and Nigerians can now begin to hope again. He should carry his message of negativity and bitterness to Mars.

owobokiri:


Utter hogwash!

oduastates:
This Aribisala is a nuisance.
His arguments are always illogical and he is clueless.
The SW does not need the centre as long as that centre does not behave like and is not as clueless as Jonathan.
On tinubu and one imagined northern agenda, only a man without a purpose in life would not have an agenda. The important thing is,
What are those agendas?
The SW agenda is in the open. As long as Nigeria remains one, the agenda is a structure which works for every man, woman and child regardless of ethnicity.
On the SW APC being sidelined , only a fool would do that considering the organising skills of the main actors from the region. Those who are capable of making a success of buhari's government and their administrative ability are in the lagos APC. A split vote in this election could easily turn to a landslide for any candidate in a future election.
Also, we are no more in the 1970.
Buhari is not as gullible as Aribisala thinks. The resistance to his ascent to aso rock was even worse in the NW(his own region) than anywhere else.

adeyemi2015:
Aribisala has never seen anything positive about Buhari since he started the journey to the Aso Rock. I do follow his weekly post on Facebook, thus make me to believe that the man has a score to settle with the General.
He predicted that GMB would fail, yet he won. What else does he want for goodness sake?
If GMB fails us, everyone will be affected, both North and South. It's time to forsake the politics of bitterness and embrace peace and unity.
We need to support the government and stop wishing them failure!

This is exactly what my dad said. Exactly why my dad kicked against yorubas siding wiv hausas. This hausas are too smart. Wiv Buharis win, they have taken us back hundred years. I just hope yoruba leaders can at least do something for the south west and it's people. If not this hausas don't mind holding power for life. This has always been their tactics. I trust yoruba people who are always vocal. It won't be long before they start insulting Buhari especially when he is not performing as expected and before u no it they will turn to opposition. This time the hausas will just go and meet south east or south south and those ones will gladly follow. Who doesn't want national cake. This has always been hausa tactics. Divide and rule!

The moment yoruba igbo and south south stand together wiv one voice, is the beginning of progress in Nigeria. The hausas no that. This is why I dislike jonathan. He would have formed a formidable united southern Nigeria. But he relegated one part to the ground. Now we are back to square 1. With the way hausas voted. It simply means nobody can attain anything in this country wivout the help of hausas and they will continue to be the owners of Nigeria. It's a shame. People who are 20 years backwards from the south and people who so believe it's their birthright to rule Nigeria. I just laugh when people say if Buhari doesn't perform u will vote him out. Lmao. Let me see how u will vote a man out that comes from the largest ethnic group in Nigeria. In case u don't no. The hausas speak wiv one voice. Anything that concerns the north will bring a northerner apc and pdp together. Something we cannot see a southerner do. We are in big trouble o. I do not trust the north one bit and I have no apologies.

abuchilag:
Femi is right on point!
Tinubu is highly expendable.
The North did not vote for APC....they only voted for Buhari. It might explain the reason why other parties contesting for other position used Buhari's picture to boost their popularity.

The total number of votes given to Buhari in South West was less than what Buhari got in Katsina and Kano. Let us watch events unfold.

God bless Nigeria

Am sure what the North is cooking will not be funny to the south!

Final nailing of the coffin of southerners aspiring to ever rule united Nigeria again !!

Sharia is smelling around already!

Black market of petrol the main job of almajiri is already back and strong.

Back to the days of Abacha......!

TopGee:
I knew Tinubu would be left behind and it will be difficult for the entire South to come together when the real game will be unfolded because South-east and South-south may just sit back and laugh as the occasion offers.

I just hope and pray that Southern Nigeria will not eternally suffer the consequences of Tinubu's greed and Jonathan's cluelessness.

Granted that Jonathan bungled it by sidelining the SW from key positions in his government, but he could have done some amelioration if he had gotten re-elected. But Tinubu allowed vindictivenesss and greed to overshadow his sense of expediency.

I laugh, just as you also indicated, when some ignorant folks talk of voting out Buhari if he fails to perform. Well, nobody is to be blamed: we have all been so spoilt by Jonathan that we now take conducting a free, fair and credible election for granted. Let's wait till Buhari replaces Jega with an independent-minded southerner.

I daresay that the immediate future does not look so bright for southern Nigeria in the political dynamics of Nigeria.

We are watching...

Igbos bring up southern Nigeria togetherness when it benefitted them...where were you guys when your clueless son was ruling Nigeria and dividing all her assets between you greedy people.

how may road or infrastructure did executed in south west?

Greedy and selfish people always hang on southern or northern unity to loot and steel Nigeria dry.
Politicians has been using northern agenda in the past to loot and the larger percentage of northern people still live in abject poverty.
Buhari is different, buhari is exemplary, buhari cares about poor Nigeria in respective of tribe or religion.

The day general Mohammed Buhari won the presidential election was the happiest day of my life.

ogb5:


No true Nigerian like the idea of Northerners killing themselves over power. But if a region chooses to bomb themselves and kidnap their own children, what can other regions really do about it?

If a man choose to murder his family today can you really stop him? He can simply serve his family poison as dinner and there is nothing you can do about it. The Northern leaders served their children poisons for the last four years, we had nothing to do than watch, hoping that the northern children will wise up, unfortunately the children did not wise up, they even voted for Shettima to continue presiding over the kidnap of school girls in Borno
