•Says VP failed politically in Lagos

By Dayo Johnson


Mr. Tolu Babaleye is Director-General of Ondo State Network for Bola Tinubu. In this interview, Babaleye says Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has dared his destiny helper with his presidential ambition, saying he lacks electoral value in Lagos.

At what point did Tinubu, Osinbajo break ties?

I am not aware that the ties broke. I don’t think Tinubu is disappointed with what Osinbajo did but many of his supporters are. Ambition is a very difficult thing and there is no way you can suppress a man with ambition. The Vice President has his ambition and feels he can dare anyone including his destiny helper and highest promoter.

Reports suggest Osinbajo quietly moved his membership of Lagos APC to Ogun APC in 2021. Was that the beginning of the breaking of ties with Tinubu?

This is not correct. The truth is that Osinbajo had no electoral value in Lagos where he used to vote because the place is dominated by the Igbo.

It was Tinubu who even advised him to relocate his PVC to Ogun. Nobody will suspend anyone for declaring to contest an election. If Osinbajo wins in the primary, he will still need Tinubu to fly.

People shouldn’t create unnecessary tension and enmity that may be difficult to settle. The truth is that Osinbajo has no electoral value in Lagos. Attached is the result of the last election from the unit where Osinbajo voted in Lagos.

Relocating to Ogun is a political calculation to bring better results and not because anyone will suspend him for exercising his constitutional right.

This is the result of Osinbajo’s unit in the 2019 presidential poll: Vice President Yemi Osinbajo (VP) Polling Unit Code 33, Unit 2 Victoria Garden City, Lagos: Presidential: APC – 229, PDP – 425; senatorial: APC – 261, PDP – 414, Rep: APC -190, PDP -268.

Why was the step necessary?

The step was necessary to make sure he wins his unit and ward in the next elections because a politician that fails to win his unit and ward is irrelevant in politics.

Was it in anticipation of running for President or some other reasons?

It was not, but to give him a base. For instance, it was also at that period that Osinbajo built his first house in Ikenne.

How are All Progressives Congress, APC, governors and National Assembly, NASS, members divided by Tinubu, Osinbajo, Amaechi, Umahi and others’ ambitions?

The result of the primary election will show that but what I know is that Tinubu is well prepared for the primary election. If you also know the history of the 9th National Assembly, you will know the role Tinubu played in birthing its leadership, all these will work for him.

You also saw the way he was received when he visited the NASS complex about three weeks ago. Tinubu has really laboured and deserves the ticket of APC.

What options are open to Tinubu now that he has very powerful forces to contend with? It is suggested in some quarters that he may head to Social Democratic Party, SDP, if he doesn’t pick the APC ticket…There is only one option available and it is to win the APC presidential ticket. What is SDP?

Did you see anyone that went to SDP in Ondo State? The people who went to SDP in Kwara have nothing to do with Tinubu. They have their issues with Kwara State governor.

Tinubu has even appealed to them to return to APC because you don’t abandon your house in the name of anger. Those linking Tinubu with SDP are fifth columnists working with a particular candidate who cannot even smell the ticket of APC because Tinubu is everywhere.

Those people working for that candidate are majorly PDP members who do not want Tinubu to emerge but they want a weak candidate that can be defeated easily. We know their game plan and we shall beat them to it.

But some of Tinubu’s men in Ondo and Kwara were said to have gone to the SDP following the crisis in APC in their states…This is not true.

Wow!

Why is this ondo man saying nonsense about Lagos.

Most of these people talking trash are senseless people from other State.

Yorubas in Lagos not voting APC as turned to IGBO dominating Lagos.

You also saw the way he was received when he visited the NASS complex about three weeks ago. Tinubu has really laboured and deserves the ticket of APC.

Laboured For who and who send am message

You people should just allow Osinbajo be cos all this blackmail will not make good and hardworking Nigerians dislike him.....

God bless Tinubu
On his mandate i stand, i'm unshakeable

In 2011 election PDP won Lagos and Southwest despite ACN (tinubu) party dominating the governorship polls.

Goodluck won in Lagos and ACN ribadu got an extreme defeat from top contestant.

Are you saying those that voted PDP in Lagos are the Igbos that dominate Lagos?

Lagos election always shows that Lagosians have an independent mindset. Only foolish people thinks APC decision is Yoruba decision.

Once the electoral laws are effective we'll start seeing the unbiased way lagosians do cast their vote.

We will meet in primary election. Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu 2023 no shaking. Osinbajo will come back to his political family after the election.

At least he never say Tinubu is bad like Aregbesola Osinbajo also cautioned his supporters from making inflammatory remarks about Tinubu.

Don't waste ya money or vote

yes because you no well like him

At the bolded the man is really high on lizard poo.
Which igbos dominated area. I guess he never been to VGC before. The people that is there have zero interest in casting vote those people that came out to voted are the people working for rich people as a domestic workers... Although this domestic workers were dominated by hausa people igbos.

If by chance PYO gets the presidential ticket of the APC, a lot of Tinubu supporters might take the suicide route.

Nigerian politics is as useless as women.

This is not correct. The truth is that Osinbajo had no electoral value in Lagos where he used to vote because the place is dominated by the Igbo.
It was Tinubu who even advised him to relocate his PVC to Ogun.

See as dis man dey lie. Haha, haba, you think say everybody na pikin. Orna no fit do anything until orna attack igbo people or join dem for yar matter. Shey d igbo people wen dey osinbajo voting centre dey beat am before. Make you take am easy, cos no matta how many lie you manufacture, you no go ever be like lie Mohammed

So, the fear of Igbo in Lagos is the beginning of wisdom. It's good to know who pass you. It's not a crime. The Yorubas said they are smart politically, now I see that they have used their smartness to advise Osibanjo that "look you have to run away from that your big man quarters because Igbos have more big men in that area than we Yorubas and we must tell you the truth, they are great and they dominate everywhere and we can only win except we rig the election in Lagos.
Please, relocate because of Igbo."

That is the secret the Yoruba man will not like to tell you openly. They respect and fear Igbo in their minds but they have chosen to fight them because of jealousy.

Happy Easter to all Nigerians!

See anoda yeye lie. If you no wan elevate d guy why you go con dey care about him electoral value. Even Lagos APC no know say osinbajo don relocate. So which time Tinubu and commissioner start the relocation. APC ozwor na unique one, aswear

Does this change the fact that a Tinubu ticket is automatic death to APC?

Only an Osinbajo ticket will guaratee victory for APC.

Even Buhari knows this. Only blind people suffering from Zombiesm think it is all about the primaries firgetting that there is a general election after the primaries.

Nigerians will vote en masse for PDP if the delegates mistakenly make Tinubu APC flagbearer. No rigging will save APC.

A word they say is enough forthe reasonable.

It's the truth. I knew he moved his base over a year ago. Didn't U see the result from his polling unit?

However, speaking with DAILY INDEPENDENT yesterday, Hon. Seye Oladejo, the Publicity Secretary of the Lagos APC said they are not aware that Osinbajo has moved his membership to Ogun state.
“We are not aware but if they are claiming that he has moved his voting unit to Ikenne in Ogun state, so technically he has to be a member of the party in Ogun now. But no official communication from him was received by the party of his movement to Ogun state,” he said.

Why orna dey lie like dis. Make orna stop to dey overdose on corn, cassava and yam. If not orna no go even fit see cow again even if e dey yar front

See a simple sentence that you can't understand, I will advice you to re read the statements so that you can understand what the man is saying.

He said Igbo dominates Victoria Island which is the poling unit of Osinbajo not the whole Lagos.

Who is Igbo to determine who win the whole Lagos

You’re really naive. Jonathan won Lagos because Tinubu supported him in 2011. A last minute deal was arranged between ACN and PDP when ACN and CPC couldn’t reach an understanding. Ribadu was part of the arrangement.

Igbo do not dominate Victoria island young man

Who the heck is this one?

It is shocking to hear this. You mean he betrayed ACN to support goodluck?

But you once said the former AD leaders betrayed AD while supporting obasanjo 1999 and claim tinubu was the one who carried the party?

That was your narrative for defending tinubu betrayal of AD. Now you claim he did the same 2011 Lol

So tinubu also betrayed ACN right?

Look at this one. If I send you an e-slap it will reset your flat head. Only failed Yorubas can fear or admire Igbos who are big political failures and nonentities.

You lot are a joke now begging everyone for a ticket non of the two main Parties are interested in conceding to you.

Yet you're here making noise against Yorubas who are a bonafide Nigerian political powerhouse ethnic group. I pity you.

TINUBU traded presidential poles for Gubar poles
Money exchange hands ni...
Ah...
You no Sabi politics oooo

But Igbo made a sitting VP Japa.

@, Topic, either tinubu or osunbande should please come forward to tell us when their relationship soured because nobody saw it coming.
Not even the eagle eyed press.

With the way tinubu jumped into his campaign train, it's evident he was in a haste to secure turf before someone else imminently did.

Na wetin dey quarrel papa and pikin?

Osunbande made sure tinubu stayed out of jail during his trials.

Most of tinubus thievery of Lagos patrimony is backed by laws and osunbande oversaw them all.

Could they have fallen out soon after osunbande assumed office because Aso rock became the new mecca and Bourdillon became jealous?

Did Tinubu consult the sitting VP his son about his presidential ambition? Did son tell his daddy he wanted a shot too?

What was the outcome? Dem shout Abi Dem exchange blows? Who else was present?

Kilo sele gangangan

tollyboy5:

So tinubu also betrayed ACN right?

What betrayal? ACN could not win in 2011 because of the political offices spread of the PDP.

Tinubu, a master strategist, simply settled for an agenda that consolidated ACN’s strenght for future battles and challenges.

So far the man has been proven right as a politician who understands 100% that politics is about permanent interest.

It was same Tinubu, after a decade of studying the particular strenghts of the PDP, who suggested smaller Parties must merge to combine strength and remove PDP from the centre

Cajal:

TINUBU traded presidential poles for Gubar poles
Money exchange hands ni...
Ah...
You no Sabi politics oooo

OK meaning he betrayed his party for money bah?

Cajal:

TINUBU traded presidential poles for Gubar poles

He does not at all. He is IPOBian so nuff said. Lol.

Betrayal don't have too definition, even tho it later yielded good result. Its still what it is.

He betrayed AD and still got result
