Buhari Doesn’t Need Southwest Anymore – Tanko Yakasai by Nobody: 10:42am On Nov 17, 2019
Elder statesman, Alhaji Tanko Yakasai has lamented the political misfortune of Prof Yemi Osinbajo, saying the crisis in the Presidency owes a lot to the actions he took as acting President.

But while he sympathizes with Osinbajo, he was of the view that the Yoruba, where the vice president comes from, can do nothing democratically that would affect President Buhari, pointing out that the president does not need their votes any more, and they cannot also garner ‘the two third majority of votes’ required to impeach him.

He said, "The Yoruba made it possible for Buhari to be the president for the first time and the second term. But Buhari does not need the Yoruba and their votes any more. He is already the president. They are not in the control of the National Assembly and, therefore, they cannot impeach him. I don’t think he needs them and so it is up to them to decide what to do in the face of what is before them. Whether they satisfied that they have been compensated. No matter what they feel about what is happening honestly they could do little to alter their fate. Buhari doesn’t need them any more. He is already the president. You cannot remove him unless by impeachment and you do not have a two-third majority required to undertake such a task in the National Assembly and so even by way of impeachment, they cannot do anything to Buhari."

He is right anyway.

The table has turned now.
South west needs Buhari far more than Buhari needs us now.

In clearer term "He has been used and ready to be dumped".
The unity and future of this country no doubt is questionable.
Baba Awolowo should have dragged Dr Nnamdi by whatever means necessary just to separate stones from shit but Dr Azikiwe had other plans. Just look at us today!!! Are we proud of the situation going on across the country?? Many fathers will have a lot to explain to their children when they start asking pertinent questions.
