National leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Ahmed Bola Tinubu has taken a weighty swipe at the former Governor of Abia State Orji Kalu for authorizing a report alleging that the Presidency has launched a security surveillance ring around him (Tinubu) over an alleged plot against President Muhammadu Buhari.

Tinubu who stated this in a statement through the Chairman, Board of Editors, Nation Newspaper Sam Omatseye on Monday titled “ Kalu For FIFA President” said Kalu had to be an illiterate for allowing such publication to emanate from his newspaper stable.

The Sun Newspaper had reported on Saturday, October 10 that Tinubu was under watch over an alleged plot against Buhari for purportedly ignoring his nominees for ministerial positions.

According to SUN, a close associate of Tinubu, who pleaded for anonymity, stated that indeed the APC leader was badly hurt by the rejection of his ministerial nominees by Buhari.

Tinubu alleged he would, however, not have a hand in pulling down “a house he almost single-handedly built with his efforts and resourc­es.”

Rather than pick the choice of Tinubu in the S/West, Buhari selected former Governors Babatunde Fashola (Lagos) and Kayode Fayemi (Ekiti), both estranged political godsons of Tinubu.

In swift response, Omatseye’s attack went; “I have always tried to restrain from writing on Orji Kalu, a former Abia State governor. But who can ignore his laughable new ambition.

“He wants to be FIFA boss. I laugh even as I pen these words. What struck me first was a conversation he had with editors when somebody asked him about his educational qualifications.
“We are talking about forwarding Abia to all forwardness, he said with a flourish, ‘and you are talking about certificate (sic).’ Is this the sort of literacy you want for Nigeria? Nada. In local parlance, we should say he has committed foul, or ‘fa-fa-fa foul!!”



“Not long ago, he embarked on a nationwide trip from state to state, visiting governors. It was more of ego trip. He was jobless and bored, although boorish.

“He was, however, not boring because of his disastrous elocution and capacity to amuse after he had left the scene of his performance.

“Never mind that he writes a column. I would want him to write that column in public, so we can know if he is capable of the literacy he poses.

“Only a Kalu could have encouraged a headline last Saturday saying that Asiwaju Tinubu was under surveillance for a plot against Buhari. Publishers like him make editors look unprofessional.

“The story did not pass Journalism 101 test. If there was surveillance, what was the nature? The man was not even around? Two, if there was a plot, what was the nature of the plot, to overthrow him as President – which is treason; or to unseat him in APC?

“When a man does not know the difference between verb and noun, how can he become a good boss of world football? How can he distinguish score as verb and as noun?

“No one will vote him boss of Southeast soccer. It is enough that Ochendo has made him a mouse in Abia State, so he dreams to be an elephant of world football. What megalomania!” See more: http://www.post-nigeria.com/security-watch-orji-uzo-kalu-an-illiterate-tinubu/

Lol...hahahaha ...... funny. This a total knock-out. A serious jab on the jaw. The real definition of see-finish. Next time some people will think twice before publishing trash...... Why are the 2 posters below me talking out of points?!

Hahaha the same people who supported a man with out WAEC are crying out about certificates

The Irony of Life.






.
That Tinubu controls the Nation's publication does not mean Orji Kalu does the same.

That's yorrober for you.Neither here nor there!

What about the millions of lies authorised by him in his newspaper, THE NATION and his television company, TVC. I can recall that his radio station 102.3 FM, was responsible for the manufacture and reportage of the story of the Anambra restaurant that was sealed of by the police on allegations of cannibalism. So, to insult and lie against Igbos is okay, but when clear and obvious reports on his recent political scuffle with the President is reported, then it's wrong. Liar, your eyes will soon be clear. Very soon, the messiah will soon tire of your childish tantrums and will order your incarceration and possible execution.

Yoruba was silent for a long time. They have been provoked to speak and Nigeria will witness and feel the venom from their razor sharp tongues.

What in this crap of a response, made any sense. The fool left the crux of the matter and started blabbing about the editors educational and professional qualifications. He should have just stuck to the accountability of the report. At least Kalu was not stupid enough to pen an article in a national newspaper on solutions to the economy crisis, were he presented the printing of more naira notes and flooding the markets with more money as a probable solution. What an ediotic statement. Beast of Yoruba nation.

The diabolical hypocrites at it again. ..see tinubu talking a about bad journalism, when all the South West news paper are fetishly making evil propaganda against south east people. ..

That was a true report corroborated by Ibo people locally on the ground. The version that was untrue was the twist given to it by BBC.

They will keep denying it till Tinubu is arrested. That will be the beginning of the end.

Omatseye is a good writer, whose skill is for hire to do dirty jobs for Tinubu. It was he who attacked Awolowo(the Yoruba god) on Tinubu's behalf.

Orji Kalu too is a clown.

Can you imagine how low Tinubu can go just to defend his battered ego? Daily Trust owner should also be defamed since it carried a similar news.



Sam Omatseye is a bleating GOAT

Tinubu really going ga ga this time.

Has attacked two former colleagues in a spate of 24 hours -Fmr Govs Saraki and noe Kalu.

Someone find out whats biting him.

Quit lying cos there was no report by anybody on ground, that was purely a concocted story by South West media, the Police at Anambra state refuted that false story. Even Daily mail and BBC apologized for running that fake story.

I guess you are joking. Because no rational thinking person will give credence to a story that was debunked and an apology was tendered for by the same station you are claiming was telling the truth. Citizen Jones of 102.3 FM, personally announced that the news was false and gave the apology, nothing about BBC was said. My God, where did APC find you guys, the class of Dunces.

Don't mind the ediot, the guy is so daft.

Omatseye does not write for Tinubu. That blog just twisted the editorial opinion written by Sam Omatseye to be a statement by Tinubu. Sensationalism if you ask me.

Orji Kalu owns Daily Trust.

Sam Ombatse has sunk to an all-time low with this gibberish. If Tifnubu and his gang of charlatans feel the report is false and a defamation of character, the courts are there. He should do the needful

Because, ever since the onset of this administration, he has received one disastrous news and disappointment after another.

Are you kidding, Sam Omatseye is the chairman of the editorial board, The Nation. Which Newspaper is believed to be owned by Tinubu?

In swift response, Omatseye’s attack went; “I have always tried to restrain from writing on Orji Kalu, a former Abia State governor. But who can ignore his laughable new ambition.

Omaseye should never question Orji Uzor Kalus logic as stated in the bolded because he did (derided and scorned ) everyone who challenged Buhari's literacy using a variation of the same logic OUK is putting forward.

maupe:

I don't understand you. Tifnubu owns The Nation newspapers.... Not believed to own

I trust Orji Uzor kalu, this is not the end of this unnecessary attack.

The story of cooked human meat and consumption in SE is not news. Everyone knows it is true. Even Britain knows this because they have records of it in their archives from accounts given by travellers and missioners in Ibo and wawa land. Babies sold from baby factories end up in pots too. So quit your feign shock at a popular claim that even your own yanmiri people are proud to proclaim to their opponents when enraged. Which tribe no know say Ibo dey eat people?
Abeg go siddon!

Apology for their twist, they did not withdraw the truth of the knowledge about consumption of human meat amongst Ibos.

Everybody please cool your temper. Trust Orji Kalu, he will /must surely reply Tinubu.
Orji Kalu that handcuffed Obasanjo in his reign as Abia governor for a whole 8 years.
Tinubu must surely hear from the man he called illiterate.
This is just the beginning of the movie.

stewpeed propaganda. fake news.

dozzybaba wetin yoruba people do you? see the kin comment you dey make here. after now you go come dey beg us.

Chai! Tinubu talk talk little action, which way Nija!

In addition to Omatseye, or whatever he calls himself, and Joe Igbokwe, which other professional "spokesmen" does Tinubu have around him?

I can imagine Tinubu yelling at this Omatseye his boy, saying, "don't just sit there reading that nonsense in the Sun, do something about it, now. I want you to write an editorial blasting Orji Kalu, otherwise your job will be in jeopdardy"

Then, Omatseye will dash off, and start attacking Kalu personally, instead of attacking his fellow editor at the Sun who had a direct control of the unfavorable article on Tinubu.

Then Tinubu can go back and focus on other more serious fights like the ones with Saraki, Buhari, and El Rufai!
