They removed Jonathan.
Tinubu is not an exception, especially when he has no Southern support outside his region.

Restructure which country?! Isn't he suppose to divide it? grin
I don't want to hear from you guys tomorrow blaming Nzeogwu or Ironsi, you now have the chance to use Tinubu's big balls to restructure or divide the country, so that you can have your oduduwa region or country to yourselves.

If people can see the future, Northern politicians would have done everything they could to stop Tinibu.

Prior to the election, Tinubu convinced the likes of El Rufai and the rest to support him so they could be the ones in control. To buttress this point, he started acting like he was braindead. Each occasion he attends, he spew all manner of incoherent rubbish, remember bulaba and rat eating holy Communion among several other nonsense. Tinubu appeared so sick that he was always shaking and behaving like a vegetable.

El Rufai thought he would become the vice but when that didn't work out, he was convinced that chief of staff position was his and between him and Shetima, they will run the affairs of Nigeria like the days of sick Yaradua or even dumb Buhari. So, they took it personal and fought tooth and nail to see that Tinubu emerged as APC candidate and also had INEC declare him winner.

However, immediately Tinubu assumed office, he dropped all pretence and pounced on the Northern politicians. Firstly, Ganduje was humiliated before eventually endorsed. Then it was turn of El Rufai. Tinubu informed Akpabio to embarrass him and never allow the Senate to screen him. El Rufai assumed he will only stroll into the red chamber, take a bow and return to Aso rock to begin his new role. Alas, he got to the Senate only to face embarrassment. He thought it was a joke, even though it wasn't funny. So, he called Aso rock to clear the apparent misunderstanding but they either ignored him or told him to comply with them. He frantically tried to have audience with Tinubu in Aso rock but it failed. Then it downed on him that Tinubu has used and dumped him. To save face, he told reporters that he wasn't even interested in any post. Lol grin grin

El Rufai couldn't stand the humiliation, so he went on exile under the guise of going to further his studies grin grin

Today, Northern politicians are too shocked and humiliated to do anything, so they quietly lick their wounds. They've always had this superiority complex that they control Nigeria's political arena and dictate what happens, but Tinubu has completely emasculated them. Out of pride, they're still pretending to be in the same page. Worse still, they're increasingly becoming afraid of Tinubu who seems to be several steps ahead of them and is now playing the game of divide and conquer against them.

They're now trying to impeach Akpabio and enforce electoral laws that would make it difficult for Tinubu to ever win another election. Unfortunately for them, Tinubu knows their game plan and is using both money and executive power to neutralize their plans.

By the time Tinubu leaves office, Northern politicians will be humbled completely.


no ibo man will be president

I have never been in doubt he is genius when it comes to politics. Come to think of it, Yorubas didn't really give him full support. Hausas and Fulanis didn't give him full support. Buhari didn't actually back him. He has so many bagagges and unflattering record that could have been used to stop him. Yet in all, he subdued all and still seats as president even though many secretly don't like him!

Even Obasanjo despite being a former military general and foremost elderstateman tried not to offend Northern politicians. But Tinubu doesn't care about their feelings one bit. He really knew his game plan and has succeeded in caging them and their excesses.
you are over exaggerating things, if buhari did not support him ,he can't be president, aisha buhari facilitated that through her husband
You think inec just favoured him without FG backing, Mahmood Yakub would have ended up in prison if buhari was not in the know

His greatest skill is putting Fulani out of power for the first time since 1999. Since 1999 it is either a Fulani man was the president or vice.

He has not put Fulani out of power. !Nigerians just like to sing praises too early!
The people that voted for him, some of them came from the north! They would probably vote him out in 2027 because his performance so far has been terrible

Will it stop you from starving and living a hopeless life?

Yet the same Igbos you're talking about are light years better than you tongue tongue

Indeed, people are perishing for lack of knowledge.

Are you in the North?
Do you have people in the North?

Reports emanating from the North now is quite scary. There is an impending total economic meltdown and starvation.

2027 is too far away when you consider how fast things are deteriorating.
