Yeah! From the stinking breath of Tinubu right to the front page of The Nation newspaper!

Bravo!

When will this guy realise this is no more about Lagos or regional politics?

Plus isn't there jounalism ethics anymore, considering the way The Nation and Sahara Reporter make a mess of their profession with their licking and kissing of tinubu's saggy a-s-s?

I have zero respect for these two media outlets.

Hope they have moved on. Because if they haven't then they will lose the battle for ministerial positions

The question is who should be blamed....the APC Senators being at the wrong place at the wrong time rather than at the Senate, or PMB inviting them for a meeting he knew he would not attend.





There is absolutely no reason why you should not want a great life.

You are totally awesome. Your friends always tell you what a great catch you are. But you have a problem. You’re still single. Not only are you single, you can’t see any good reason why you’re single.

All the bad boys and naughty girls are hooking up and getting married, and here you are: smart, working class, busy professional, relatively drama-free, and alone at night. Again!.

Whenever you’re out in public, you see all the couples or married people, and wonder how and where they met up, and what was said to get the ball rolling.

Now let’s look at it another way…

Imagine yourself having more people romantically interested in you. Imagine that special someone writing you back, accepting your offer of a first date, becoming your partner.

Sound good?

Two serving governors and two former governors all from the South west participated in the plot, meetings were held in Abeokuta and Ilishan in Ogun state.
And the news is from the Nation newspaper owns by Tinubu.

Very interesting .

No doubt the the story will be largely true, but it presents Tinubu as too clean and anti-corruption that one begins to wonder whether the story was not written by Tinubu himself. The Nation can do better.

The most glaring inaccuracy in the report was that Tinubu dropping Akume for Lawan because of "respect for Buhari". Anyone with the slightest knowledge of Nigerian politics knows the real reason Tinubu dropped Akume for Lawan, was to pave way for Gbajamiala push as speaker, as SP Akume coming from NC and Speaker Gbaja from SW will mean NE will not gain anything, which will be a difficult push as Dogara from NE would beat Gbaja if Akume of NC (and not Lawan of NE) emerged.

Saint Tinubu. Nations newspaper can go to hell. All this wahala is cos an igboman is d deputy senate presido. Now think of it. He choses Akume after David Mark held d post for 8years. Not even south with was considered. So he wants to pocket naija like south west.

Truthfully, I can't lie. I know when Tinubu wrote this article, he begged me to publish it I refused, so he took it elsewhere.
The real gist is that Saraki's coming to power is the handiwork of market women in Ochanja mkt, dem are protecting their red oil biz. Don't tell anyone o!

BTW is the nation newspaper not owned by tinubu, how come they are just publishing this news now...

I think that is why the nation newspaper has to go down deep to bring out the information any other newspapers who dare attempt this will probably face stiff opposition I think except sahara reporter. PDP sha all the times

OP
This is arrant nonsense and demonstration of high level of ignorance.
These leaders were not chosen but voted in, so what are you talking about here.
1. APC delivered the deputy seat to PDP free of charge
2. The OP suddenly discovered that these guys are oil barons when it came to choice of leadership in the house but not before and during the elections
3. APC should take full responsibility for the mess in the house , learn from it and move on.

Don't be ignorant my brother . You think senators vote for free. Hmmmmmm

Money changed hands big time


Read my post here, I hinted this story days ago this just confirm it

I even mentioned names of the principal players

Who was the first person Saraki visited on the same day he was elected (Atiku Abubakar) read between the lines

https://www.nairaland.com/2372120/people-behind-bukola-sarakis-emergence

As soon as I belong to everybody and nobody statement was made........ Femi Otedola, Aliko Dangote and a few other rich people started to deep. Knowning Buharis past history with corruption and a man that divorced his wife after coming out from house arrest all just because she went to IBB to ask for upkeep money for the family.

The looked around and did not have to look far to see over ambitious Bukola Saraki as a tool they can use to slow down thinks like

Subsidy Probe , Import Waiver & Duty Scandal with Ministry of Finance and Internationak Trade (Aganga' Minisry)

They came together and put up close to 3 Billion Naira..... to make sure they had the senators on their side

Dont you ever think Dino is a real anti corruption hero or person oooooo

If Ben Brice keeps quiet he knows what went down.... not sure if he collected any money but I know he was on Bukola side and he will surely be a commitee chairman... just watch how it all unfolds.


The main people in the know that put up most of the money - Aliko Dangote, Femi Otedola and Atiku Abubakar, who still beleives Tinubus and PAC's Open ballot during the Presidential Priomaries killed his ambition...

Atiku always has a score to settle with Tinubu... you can tell it was not all smooth sailing all thru the campaign with Buhari where Atiku only made one apprerance with an excuse the Party Chairman knows where I am if he needs me... bla bla bla

Bukola has forgetten that the cane used the whip the 1st wife is always kept above the ceiling

Goodluck to him

FYI I am not a Tinubu fan,I am just telling it like it is........

Another damage control article aimed at National Assembly leadership credibility. An attempt to create the impression that corrupt people were behind the emergence of Saraki and Dogara. Nothing but a beer palour gossip.
Oil cabals against Tinubu because he refused to cooperate with them Complete Rubbish! Tinubu fighting corruption is like Batman singing at an Opera show. Is Tinubu not part of the cabals

So you expect the APC government who they gave heavily to for the elections to now prosecute them?
And you think am ignorant? I think you need to see that PMB is handicapped to break the cartel of the oil barons. Bros forget it if anything will happen to them, even Jagaban is not excluded

The article aimed to window dress Tinubu to the public and showcase him as a victim of oil cabals because of his stance against corruption. Any body who believes Tinubu will fight corruption will believe that Michel is the President of West Germany.
