Jagaban pulls more weight in the south west politics put the Obj's letter is a national affair that is paramount to everyone. The pain in the country doesn't exempt any region. We are still going to vote Ambode but Buhari is a no go area. daura is his root come 2019 1 Like |

lilfreezy:To be feared is not strength when your opponent has the people's loyalty. The loyalty of north is with buhari an ally of tinubu. Coming to the west, who obasanjo help? But the turn around for better Lagos is still being attributed to tinubu while many western states look forward to having the same leadership trend that exist in Lagos to come to their state. So Tinubu is most influential among the two as much as buhari and tinubu are still friends. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

alizma: The north only understands the language of fear, which they always use against the southerners. Tinubu is a soft Democrat and nothersners will always control such. OBASANJO knows how to take the game to them. |

aolawale025: Lagos has never been more safely in Tinubu's hands than now - can't say same for the rest of the SW. PDP is dead and buried in Lagos, as the last juggernaut they had - Obanikoro has left, leaving Bode George (rascally old man), and Agbaje (*chuckles*). Until you have been to a ward meeting of the party, you would never realize how deep into Lagos' grassroots APC is entrenched: all these bricklayers, taxi drivers etc. are loyal members at that level cos the party dispenses favours even down to their level. From what my old classmate in the party told me, if you are a card carrying member, known in your ward, and punctual in attending ward meetings, you can for instance walk to a LASG construction site to ask for a job as a bricklayer, and be accorded priority. 3 Likes |

Tinubu has active influence with personality in power who together can garner grassroot support. Obj on the other hand has goodwill amongst people across board but not strong enough to call them to act against there principal when the chips are down. Obj had alot of persons in key positions before the APC won in 2015. In Obj quest to bring GEJ down, his chunk of influence left the corridors of power. Tinubu on the other hand succeeded in the last election to get more of his folks into key positions in the SW and national level and across to the North. Today as it stands Obj only boost of expired politicians eg people like Lamido etc. The others you see appreciate him out of respect and goodwill which he can destroy by simply trying to go against there interest. As for me the power has gradually moved to the people... What matters is getting the people onboard as there are no guarantees that influencers can always give the right push. At the moment the dynamics i feel will greatly be with the people and such persons as Obj and Tinubu or even Buhari can only secure that much a support and can't assure anyone of complete or majority support.Forget thugs, it would be hard to force those that want to vote otherwise.People willing to vote there own way are more in numbers. Obj letter is playing to the gallery. He has seen the dynamics that no single person holds the ace. Not PDP and not APC. Not some God father or some spiritual leader.He has seen that the power is with the people come 2019. As such he is touching them where they may like. The things that drive votes in Nigeria today most likely will be centered and divided along religion,ethnicity,gov. service,daily challenges,security,food,job,welfare etc so the reasons are vast and that goes beyond party or individual influence. Neither Tinubu nor Obj can secure victory for anyone. Its better people focus on being independent and voting what or who works...EOD 1 Like 1 Share |

Oduduwa Descendants don't talk anyhow about Power or ascribe Power to common mortals. Power is Christ and Oduduwa. Power is therefore God(Olodumare). Yorubas talk more about Culture. There are two living Individuals in Yorubaland that you don't just assess anyhow with local pepper-soup mouth--Soyinka and Obasanjo, without incurring international consequences. These two are International figures. Tinubu is still very much a Local Yoruba Champion. He has local Charms. 1 Like 1 Share |
