Is This True? by matooto(op): 2:29am On Apr 20, 2011
ACN(Tinubu) allegedly asked for the slots of Minister of Petroleum and that of Justice. Is it true?
When CPC  agreed, ACN asked that Buhari’s running  would resign after six months;
To this effect, a document was taken to Buhari and later to Bakare, containing a letter of resignation dated June 2nd, and an agreement that Tunde Bakare would receive  vice president’s salary for the full period of 4 years, plus entitlement as ex vice president for live.
Expectedly, Pastor Bakare did not sign the document, neither was Buhari happy with the conditions his party leaders and ACN leaders agreed on; A copy of this letter was sent to the press with the forged signature of PST BB; God saved the journalist that he made a point of duty to call Pst BB for confirmation before going to the press;
It was also rumoured that Tinubu was seen at the Presidential wing of the MMA on Wednesday night; flew on the presidential plane to Abuja and returned with the same, that night;
Tinubu allegedly promised our president that he would deliver Lagos and other ACN controlled states  to him at the Presidential election;
Our Asiwaju did not make such promise for nothing; he made PDP/Jonathan promise him the slots of AGN and Petroleum minister. Rumour has it that he got a cash compensation of 6BN;
Aregbesola of Osun reportedly did not support their leader’s moves, hence did not loose Osun to PDP;

Could  all these be true?
Why is it that it was only Wednesday night that ACN ever directly attacked CPC in their advert/campaign.
I am not  a CPC man o but, I doubt if the person of Asiwaju is worth following at all, and I reckon that the wickedness he has done this Nation,Southwest  and Lagosians is far more than Obasanjo did.

Buhari overestimated his strength because of the fluke crowds that were following him around.

Since ACN was in a stronger position than CPC after the legistlative election it asked for the VP position - the price had gone way up. If you don't understand what ACN was doing, here it is. ACN probably had a good estimation that there is no way Buhari is winning the election, and so asked for the impossible - Bakare's resignation. Anyone that knows Barkare would already know that would never happen - ever!!!

As the late MKO Abiola once told a bunch of lecturers heckling him about the source of his riches being his connections: "If it is that easy, go and make your own money". In the case of Buhari, if ACN is expected to make do with little or nothing for its alliance with CPC, then CPC should go win the presidency with little or no party structure or supporter base.

Bottom-line, ACN was way more informed about this political contest than CPC, and negotiated/acted accordingly.
