PHOTOS-PDP'S Likely 2019 Pairing, Ribadu-Peter Obi At Thisday Event by Nobody: 10:28pm On Sep 28, 2015 |
It was a reunion of sort for former Anambra governor, Peter Obi and former Adamawa gubernatorial candidate, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu who apparently were seeing again for the first time since the post-Goodluck Jonathan era. Their continual hugging and vigorous shaking of hands drew attention of journalists and other political big wigs at the cocktail session of the 20th THISDAY Anniversary Award held at Eko Hotel and Suites penultimate week. It would be recalled that both men defected from their primary parties to pitch tent with the then ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in a move that shock political observers. While Peter Obi claimed he dumped All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) after a long and sustained denial in October 2014 because of his resolve to be strongly involved in former President Goodluck Jonathan’s 2015 re-election bid, the 54-year-old anti-corruption Czar defended his jumping of ships from All Progressive Congress (APC) to PDP as an action borne out of his zeal to his country. However after the loss and eventual evacuation of the erstwhile government from Aso Rock, not much was heard of most PDP stalwarts, especially the two political turncoats who many political buffs still believed hold an impeccable record in their last political assignments – Ribadu in EFCC and Obi as Anambra State governor. This perhaps explained why the organisers of THISDAY anniversary awards found both worthy of being given the prestigious recognition of game changers. In the category of lifetime achievers however were Alhaji Ahmadu Ibrahim Coomasie, former Inspector General of Police; Chief Tonye Graham-Douglas, former Minister of Tourism; Sir Alex Duduyemi, businessman extraordinaire; Mr. Jackson Gaius-Obaseki, former Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC); Prof Ibrahim Gambari, former Minister of External Affairs; His Royal Highness Alhaji Shehu Idris, Emir of Zaria; Prof Joe Irukwu, insurance guru and Chief Kola Jamodu, former Minister of Commerce and Industry. http://www.citypulseng.com/2015/09/a-tale-of-two-defectors-ribadu-obi.html?m=1

While the APC decimates themselves with their various factions squabbling, Atiku, Saraki,Tinubu, El Rufai, Tambuwal et al. The PDP should offer Nigerians a viable alternative ahead of time and begin to build a consensus. Either this pairing or Dankwambo/Obi will be perfect. 1 Like |

Surprisingly a very decent pairing, atleast better than the current rubbish we have now. Ribadu, a young vibrant anti-corruption czar with a good sense of 21st century governance and development, while peter obi is known for fiscal responsibility, management and economic know-how, qualities he displayed in anambra governance. A very promising combo. One to look out for. 10 Likes 3 Shares |

OP, IF YOU LIKE CAMPAIGN FROM NOW TILL THY KINGDOM COME, NO MAN BORN OF A NORTHERN WOMAN WILL SIT IN ASO ROCK COME 2019. THE PDP WILL FIELD EITHER AKPABIO, NOI OR MIMIKO FOR THE POSITION OF PRESIDENCY IN THE NEXT PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS. YOU BETTER RETURN THE RAM MEAT THEY GAVE YOU FOR THIS JOB, BECAUSE IT DID NOT WORK. |

Ribadu will need to work on the north. If he can split sufficient northern votes with buhari, then it is smooth sailing all the way. The SE/SS will give him a landslide victory in the south. Anyway, 2019 will be very interesting. 1 Like |

CSTR2:Buhari promised APC leaders to do only one term. That's the genesis of the whole APC crisis. Saraki,Atiku,Kwankaso,El Rufai and Tinubu are all trying to get ahead before then. Buhari will most likely root for El Rufai but a lot of the key northern leaders Goje,Yerima,Wamakko, et al are backing Saraki. Tinubu is also making his own play. A lot is going on behind the scenes. |

CSTR2:I REPEAT, IN 2019, NO MAN BORN OF A NORTHERN WOMAN WILL SEE THE INSIDE OF THE BEDROOM IN ASOROCK. THE PDP IS A NATIONAL PARTY, BUT IS ALSO A MORAL AND FAIR PARTY. THE SOUTH WILL FIRST ENJOY 8 YEARS OF UNINTERRUPTED RULE BEFORE PASSING THE BATON TO THE NORTH. I CAN ASSURE YOU THAT THIS IS A FACT. |
Re: PHOTOS-PDP'S Likely 2019 Pairing, Ribadu-Peter Obi At Thisday Event by Nobody: 11:14pm On Sep 28, 2015 |
hinwazaka:The PDP is a fair national party, Under the PDP the South had 13 of the 16 democratic years with Obasanjo and Jonathan, Yar’Adua had just three so the PDP will put forward a credible northerner in 2019. Ribadu was born and bred in Lagos, is very progressive, urbane, intelligent and smart. Most of his close personal friends are even Southerners and he is not a bigot like the current clown in the villa. 2 Likes |

Gogetta:don't mind these naive people. Someone is even talking about ribadu matching buhari's votes in the north! If there are 10 million voters in the north, Buhari has 8 million already even if he doesnt do any single project for them. Then if he does projects for them he has 9.5 million already. 4 Likes |
