I read everything because I'm a student of politics.
My take away:
The man said "this position is for South West and in Yoruba, religion is none issue".
This implies that Yoruba leaders see VP of Nigeria as an ethnic property and not Nigeria. They believe the VP must serve the interest of South West and not that of Nigeria.
No wonder the in VP staff, you hardly find someone from another tribe.
It was evident from word go that Buhari is not a man of his own. He was always dragged into action and would always go with his tribe. This has not changed.
Adams Oshiomole has always been with Tinubu and he was rewarded with national chairman.
Same Tinubu was rewarded with Yomi Osibanjo, Speaker, Senate President, ministers of works, housing and power. FIR, Budget office, and juicy contracts.
So nobody should come and say "Buhari owes Tinubu". That's why other party members are spoilt for war because they have seen the Tinubu is greedy.
Finally, this book launch is ill timed. It will unsettle some power brokers. People like
OBJ, Buhari, Northern elders and some Yoruba elders.
Maybe it was done in a bid to force Buhari into supporting Tinubu, but a close look will tell you that Bisi Akande bare it all and isn't happy with the president.
I salute his courage.

It would only make matters worse

Leverage2021:
Buhari never promised to make Tinubu vice president even by admitting the statement below

Akande stressed that [s]despite the pledge to make Tinubu his vice presidential candidate, Buhari later faltered, saying that[/s] he only said that he wanted the former Lagos governor to “partner with him.”

It shows buhari intention was to use him aka partner with him but greed told tinubu he would be vice president

Buhari is still "partnering with him" till date as another shock await him in 2023

As much as I like baba Akande, the latter paragraph of the write up was disappointing. How can baba say there was no restructuring in the APC manifesto? So on what basis was El Rufai committee constituted? Just enjoy your retirement sir. You've done your part

Buhari has always renege on his promises. He is not a man of his word and should not be trusted. He did promises to fight corruption, strengthen naira, cut medical tourism and revamp our refineries. Alas! He instead is prospecting for oil in the north,building railway for another country and dealing a blow to Nigerias economy deliberately.

A Muslim/Muslim ticket, how was that going to be possible. Infact the PDP then would have used it as a campaign tool against the APC.

All these are made to bully North/Buhari to hand the APC presidential ticket to the South West and specifically to Tinubu

These people care about nothing but their pockets, see Akande saying religion is not an important factor in southwest politics. Would he have readily aceeded to a Christian-Christian ticket? And after showing this selfish and greedy trait, the same old man had the gut to insult others like him.
This same Akande castigating some old men for going for Jonathan confab I am sure won't mind having an ailing and old Tinubu as Nigeria's next president.

For Tinubu, disappointment and heartbreaks will never depart from his court. Come 2023, if Nigeria is still here and not yet scuttled by the wicked man he planted on it, he shall surely have more heartbreaks to deal with. Wicked, greedy souls.

A Muslim/Muslim ticket in 2015 would have put a nail on APC coffin back then. Osinbajo on the ticket played an important role garnering votes for APC. This was demonstrated.

The APC implosion has started.

The release of these comments will not help Tinubu's cause. You have literally called the President's integrity to question openly.

And Tinubu's ambition and greed is unbelievable. You chose the VP, the Senate President, Speaker of House of Reps, Lagos Governor and still eyeing the Presidency?

Akande is his boy boy. He is insulting Falae and Adebanjo who made Tinubu the Lagos State governor at Funsho William's expense?

Life!

If you are complaining about buhari sidelining tinubu, then you are the real wailing wailers. Am an igbo man, but i will personal come out and vote a yoruba man as president, so long as they present a good man with good track record. Not old, disgusting crooks like tinubu.

❌❌❌

A Muslim-muslim ticket was not
possible, given that Buhari was already
known as fanatic, jihadi Muslim.

Unfortunately for Tinubu, being a
southern Muslim will guarantee he
never becomes president, since he
will need to balance his ticket by
taking a Northerner & the Muslim
north will feel cheated if it isn't a
Northern Muslim.

On the other hand, Northern Christians
will not accept a Muslim-muslim ticket.
This is the dilemma of Jagaba❗️❗️


And btw, he is already old & sickly.
He wants to die on the throne.☹️☹️

Reading this long story shows that in politics nobody is absolutely trustworthy.
I can see that Bisi Akande's book is subtly trying to whitewash and market Bola Tinubu for 2023.
It is unfortunate, it is too late.
Nigeria does not need these old cargoes
They shud retire and give way for young and intelligent ppl who are much in tune with the 21st century methods of managing the economy of a country.
Anybody that is talking about Atiku or Tinubu's presidency for 2023 needs his head examined.
