I knew Dangote had more sense.
How he even allowed his name to be included in the first place beats all commonsense.
What if Atiku wins?
He would legitimately give advantage to your business rivals to not only spite you but drive your businesses down while propping up those of others through legitimate government contracts and incentives

"On the negative side, it will be a big loss for them if the 2019 is won by an opposition party because they will remove all the favours that this current government is giving them and even introduce other stipulations. I think this idea marks the end of moral superiority that this government is preaching and is a total departure from what Nigerians expect from them.”

Sorry to blast your burble, Dangote was made an adviser to the APC campaign and he remains an adviser to the campaign, including Otedola.

Sir, you speak from both sides of the mouth. Why list Dangote's name 'as an adviser' on the list of a partisan Campaign Council? To advise the APC on how to win the 2019 Presidential elections, isn't it? Did Dangote consent to his being listed as an 'adviser' on how to win the Presidential election for the ruling party?

I guess this is all about the Dubai Strategy that has been falling apart.

The clarification by Adesina was in order to educate ignorant and frustrated wailing idiots that Dangote and Otedola were never named as part of the Campaign Team but as Special Economic Advisers to the president.

Which of this is not clear to the frustrated Atikulooted brains and their media?
Your propaganda is stale Sir. It was purely an APC 2019 Election Campaign Council. The APC clearly goofed by including Dangote's name in a partisan council without his due consent. The fault is your party's, not that of any other group. Thank you.

Uglyboy:

Have you confirm if Dangote was dropped as an adviser?

Must you believe all this hungry bloggers?
Go and do your research.

The presidency only said he is not a card carrying member of APC but that does not stop him from being an adviser and it will be foolish of you to think that they did not discuss with Dangote before making him an adviser
Sir, you are just playing around with words. Dangote has the right to become a card carrying member of any political party. He also has the right to have his name in the Campaign Council of any party. If he is merely a member of the Campaign Council and not a card carrying member of the APC as you want us to believe, what difference does that make? Why then the rebuttal if Dangote and the ruling party discussed it as you are implying? Who asked for it? Why did it become necessary? Something is definitely fishy?

There's nothing fishy, they did not refute anything, they basically clarified and asked you, people, to go back and read the list they put out.

Many ignorant Nigerians thought he joined the APC and they clarified that he's not a member of the APC and cannot be because he's not a card carrying member, he's only on the list as an adviser.

They educated the ignorant people because many of them did not read or even know the difference between counsel and adviser.
Re: Why Dangote Was Dropped As Buhari’s Campaign Adviser by OkunrinOloro: 2:53pm On Dec 30, 2018
So what was the essence of announcing Mr. Dangote's name in the first place if he is a non card carrying member? Were they not supposed to have gotten his agreement to serve as an "advisor" before going public with such information? Why have they been forced to swallow their nonsense not more than a few days after they vomitted it? Stupidity all around, from the dullard who made the blunder to the BMCs who are defending him.

1. They put out a list showing Dangote and Otedola as advisers to the president, but many ignorant people didn't bother to read, the names on the list appeared below different headings based on their roles in the campaign, They missed Dangote's name under the adviser heading.

2. APC rightfully clarified and educated the ignorant people that he's not a council member, but an adviser.

3. Clarifying and making sure you understand what you should have is something you should be thanking them for. Thank them for educating you.

How can Dangote be "dropped" as a member, if he was not "picked" as a member in the first place? With every statement you make, you are simply ampilfying the scope of your stupidity and digging yourself deeper into a hole. Stop thinking that everyone in this country is as stupid, ignorant and clueless as that 60 year old beggar whom you were promoting a few weeks ago just because she claimed that the dullard has never stolen a dime in his life.
