Nigeria was a strong PDP country allegedly? Was that by rigging or the will of the people

Are you telling Obasanjo did not rig elections in other SW states or that no other state elections have between thwarted since 1999?
How did PDP sweep the SW in 2003 is that how popular the party was?

What happened with
Oyinlola
Oni
Ngige
Osunbor
Agagu
And all those states whose elections are no longer in line for May handover

Spare me the fake sanctimoniousness
Even if he did not take the whole state he could have taken some legislators and he could have used the federal might to thwart the activities of Alpha beta. |The long and short is Tinubu would have been fighting to save Lagos instead of taking over the SW



Someone who couldn't use Federal Might to save his own head, nah him wan use FM take over Lagos....Simply put, Goodluck lacked balls...but again, if OBJ could fail in that regard, biko who is GEJ? cheesy cheesy

One of the reasons GEJ lost the election is he lost PDP in the SW due to bad advice


Tinubu was too comfortable with no threat to his power in Lagos . A big mistake. H could and should have used the federal might to get a foothold for PDP in the Lagos State House of Assembly and National Assembly but he allowed himself to be led astray by children of hate and was persecuting Bode George and other key PDP members from SW whom he believed were close to Obasanjo

Bode George was prosecuted in 2008 under Yar Adua Government when Jonathan was a mere VP. He was tried of all places in High Court of Lagos State by judge appointed by Tinubu. You have seen how you attempt to twist facts to suit your ugly narrative. He was actually set free by the Supreme Court in 2013 under Jonathan.

some people don't understand the basics of Nigerian politics. It is sad to say but the PDP political leaders are a bunch of political illiterates. Most of the voters in Lagos are Yoruba people and you come to Lagos dressed like riverine Ijaws?. Peter Obi should not have joined these fools in this debacle. Shame very big shame.

Show us one PDP state you have ruled that's better than Lagos.

You talk as if key infrastructure in Lagos was done by Lagos state government? When Lagos was federal capital, alot was done there by FG. That notwithstanding, rivers and Akwa Ibom are pDP states better governed than ur godfather led Lagos state

They're just wasting their time. Just like its hard to dislodge PDP from Akwa Ibom, Rivers, Delta and a few SE states, it will be even harder to capture Lagos from APC. If OBJ (as politically ruthless as he was) couldn't succeed with his federal might, na these spinless ones go come succeed?

So Jandor and his supporters want to take over Lagos state. He should gio and ask Jimi Agbaje & Co how far...

Saraki once promised to teach some fools how to take over Lagos from the Jagaban boys, at the end of the election, the Jagaban boys took over Saraki's state, pull down Saraki's father's house and confiscated several Saraki's ill gotten properties. Saraki also lost all elective positions in his state.

So these group of jesters will end up miserable like Saraki

1. APC did not win 2015 because Buhari was overly popular.

APC won because PDP fought amongst themselves and destroyed itself.

The current infighting in APC may be good for Nigerians

I will give some history on how the PDP downfall started from 2012.

2. It all started 2012. The N.E zonal Congress of the PDP was held in Bauchi to elect the National Chairman.

Bamanga Tukur was GEJ anointed candidate but he lost the local election. However, three days later, all other candidates withdrew for him.

GEJ forced him in.

3. The NWC members were very annoyed. They thought he was too old. (He was in his 80s).

GEJ wanted him because he had money and could not be bought by Governors easily.

The chief opponent was the Governor of Adamawa state Murtala Nyako. They were from the same state.

4. Why did he not want Tukur as Chairman

A. Being Chairman would make Nyako the number 2 in the state
B. He believed Tukur wanted to make his son Governor in 2015

True to Nyako’s fear, the state executive committee in the party was dissolved. The NWC distanced themselves.

5. This was the spark that started all the confusion in PDP and metamorphosed into the eventual loss of PDP

The NWC reinstated the sacked executives and said the Chairman acted alone.

However, Dame Jonathan fight with Amaechi, Amaechi issues with GEJ over oil wells.

6. His rancorous relationship with the Speaker Tambuwal, sacking of Oyinlola as National secretary, GEJ 2nd term etc were all isolated cases that added to the eventual collapse

But the Tukur situation was the spark.

Let me continue the story. So....

7. Two parallel bodies were created in Adamawa.

The Governor had swore to fight the Chairman and GEJ (who he thought supported such moves)

Next bad move, Tukur suspended Amaechi. It stunned people because even though GEJ and him were enemies, it was illegal to do so without NEC.

8. Tukur had not called any NEC meeting but still suspended him anyways.

Next Governor to be suspended was Gov Wamakko of Sokoto state. Again no one was consulted.

Why were these men suspended?

Wamakko was rumored to be contesting for President and Amaechi was to be VP.

9. Wamakko also supported Nyako openly when Tukur and himself were fighting for power.

Also Amaechi spats with GEJ made the suspension of both men align with GEJ and Tukur’s interest.

What next? Other Governors revolt. They see this as a bad sign.

10. Gov. Lamido of Jigawa openly frowned at the suspensions. Also Kwankwaso of Kano

Rumbling starts....

BOT chairman, Chief Tony Anenih felt Tukur was the devil and was deceiving GEJ

Meanwhile the issue of 2nd term and the supposed gentleman’s agreement for GEJ not to contest.

11. Started raising issues.

Campaign posters were out for GEJ and he did nothing to douse the rumors of him not contesting.

Three senators and Governors were mandated to see GEJ to clear the air on that

They were Saraki, Lamido and Adamu Abdullahi

Saraki was hesitant.

12. Saraki and GEJ were not friends.

It started from Yaradua’s time when Saraki was the all powerful NGF chairman. He had more powers than GEJ who was vice then.

TO BE CONTINUED �

13. LETS CONTINUE

People regarded GEJ then as that lucky guy.

But Yar’adua, the ever wise President then was aware of things and asked Saraki (He is on Twitter. He can confirm) to discuss with GEJ.

GEJ said “No problem, your excellency”

But after Yar’Asia’s demise,

14. GEJ was made to remember some of the role Saraki contributed in the political bedlam during Yar’adua’s sickness.

Later, Saraki even met GEJ at the villa to ask him why EFCC was harassing him and his family. GEJ feigned ignorance.

But he barely left the villa when SFU

15. unit declared him wanted. SFU is Special Fraud Unit.

Let’s not deviate.

So those men met GEJ. Lamido, Abdullahi and Saraki. They came back upset.

Why? GEJ kept them waiting for hours. And gave them a “I don’t give a Bleep” attitude about the gentleman’s agreement

16. A G-7 of aggrieved governors was formed.

They were Adamawa, Kano, Niger, Jigawa, Kwara, Rivers and Sokoto.

They were headed by Baraje.

They would be the n-PDP

They either hated Tukur or were against GEJ 2nd term.

17. Their plan was to mobilize against GEJ nationwide.

Saraki wanted someone else to defeat GEJ at the primaries.

Amaechi wanted to leave the PDP outrightly.

Others were undecided.

18. PDP convention came, all 7 Governors planned a walk-out.

Atiku gets to hear of this. He wants to be part of it.

The others are reluctant to include him especial Nyako. They include him in the plans anyways.

Meanwhile, the newly formed APC can’t believe their luck!

19. The n-PDP did not want to leave PDP save Amaechi

They just wanted to force GEJ hand so he sacks Tukur and a renegotiation of 2015.

But things get out of hand very quickly.

57 out of 204 PDP lawmakers swear allegiance to n-PDP

Anenih panics and tries to talk sense to GEJ

20. Tukur instead fights the G-7 and suspends the state executives in Kano and others.

It explodes and they all walk into APC.

Just like that (without a single vote cast) APC got the big 3 Kano, Rivers and Lagos (Lagos was always APC)

Game over.

THE END!

Yes óò, FG has built, is still building and will continue to build Lagos.

Yeyerity. The amount of infrastructure added since 1999 cannot be matched by any other state.

The development and jobs added by Tinubu and all other administration after him cannot be compared to any other in Nigeria.

But it's okay, keep living in denial.

FG ko, LG ni

Despite the ostracizing by FG in 1999-2003, Lagos still made tangible progress.

The problem with Pdp is they have refused to show any sign or reason to change despite their past failures which led to Jonathan’s loss at the polls.

Not every Nigerian wants to go back to Egypt. Some want to move forward out of Buhari’s wildernesses.

Maybe Buhari is Moses and osinbajo is Joshua. I don’t know. grin

Most PDP Big wigs gathered for the event

Why posting this again today after it was posted yesterday? It was because it failed to make any impact.

Who is Jandor?

I am sure he is only widely known by his friends. Where is Bode George? Where is Deji Doherty? I can go on mentioning other names but it would be a wastage of energy. I remembered how Bode George and South West PDP was humiliated in PortHarcourt before Secondus became the chairman. Bode George and South West team were shamefully disgraced by PDP in Port Harcourt to the extent that Bode George swore never to attend any PDP meeting in Port Harcourt again.

Of what importance is the coming to Lagos of all these Governors to receive Jandor and the people struggling for survival in Lagos? If Rivers for Rivers PDP group defects to APC I am not sure APC governors , Amaechi, Lawan, Buni and others would have been there. It wouldn't have been news just as this is not news. Their unpopular ceremony took place when area boys were fighting on the Island. They are lucky the fight did not get to TBS area.

Under Jonathan government, despite making the highest revenues in the history of Africa tii date and spending everything including almost $30 billion out of the reserve Obasanjo left, nothing to show for the development of South West. The South West is the least beneficiary of that looting. The Geographical Zone which is the major beneficiary of the looting empowered their people to acquire properties and invest in business while the South West lost in everything. Even the Chairmanship seat zoned to South West was taken away and Bode George and his team ridiculed and humiliated. Seyi Makinde cannot claim to be unaware of these marginalization of South West in PDP though South West don't cry about marginalization or victimisation.

Taofeek Arapaja is a young man groomed by Alao Akaka when he was his dedicated Senior Special Assistant (Deputy Governor) and honoured by Akaka with nomination for Ministerial posting. So, Arapaja is now the most senior person from South West in PDP. If Alao Akaka were to be alive, he cannot be at TBS, never.

They have gut for visiting OBJ. They have courage. I asked the question again, where is Bode George? Where is Deji Doherty and others I don't want to mention?

Yoruba Ronu.

You are all welcome to Lagos. That's the beauty of democracy.

I remember the last time, HE Saraki came on such visit then as Senate President, he was boasting about how he is the political master of Asiwaju Tinubu little did he know that he is the one who will be sent packing with stones and Otoge from his Kwara base. He learnt to be humble enough not to make such remarks this time wink

Even if everyone is to say PDP is a corrupt party, for me I prefer them to the said change(APC) that brought hardship to every Nigerians. I swear down, even the rich are complaining talk more of the less/poor citizens. The corrupt PDP left dollar at what rate and the common food for the masses which is rice, how much was the price of a bag of rice when the corrupt PDP were in power? The fellows in the APC, are they not corrupt?
