The political atmosphere has been agitated since the day Osinbajo notify the Nigerian public of his intention run for the presidency in 2023.

While many are very excited about his declaration as they see him as the right candidate that is needed at this crucial time in Nigeria's history, with his intelligence, commitment, and dedication to his duty as Vice President who understands Nigeria"s problems, others do not see it that way.

Osinbajo's declaration to them is an affront and a disloyal attitude and betrayal to Tinubu his Godfather who is also eyeing becoming the president of this country.

However, Osinbajo's intelligence has never been in doubt as no one has ever accused him of inordinate ambition for power. If this is the case, what prompted Osinbajo to declare?

Who advised him or encouraged him to take such a move?

There are two people I think could make Osinbajo succumb to such encouragement.

It is either Tinubu or Buhari, who do you think?

All na packaging.. Osibanjo is also playing to Tinubu's gallery. It's jus fanboys and gullible Nigerians I pity

As Osinbajo has said,' it is service, not personal ambition'

It must have been God his father who has decided to fix Nigeria that has instructed him

You did not reveal anything according to your topic.

Osinbajo can't declared without Buhari being aware, same as Tinubu

Osibanjo na distraction.. all na grand plan

Its G.O

helinues:

That means Buhari and Tinubu are well briefed and he gave his nod. So why are some people shouting betrayal?

I have said it times without number that politics is a game.

Time is engineering his consultations for Osinbajo and there will be a merger at the end.

VPs are usually consensus candidate with no opposition at the end except they refuse to contest.

But no Nigeria VP has ever been allowed to become Nigeria President, Obasanjo would always stand against Atiku

Misleading headline.

But the question nobody is asking is, what really happened between osunbande and his age long master, associate, benefactor and godfather?

At what point did they fall out? Over what? Over the presidency or over political control?

How come nobody noticed any crack in their relationship?

How long has a Cold war been going on? We know some Tinubus core loyalist who fell out with him, but when did he and his son osunbande start their quarrel?

How come even the prying eyes of the press never knew when osunbande moved his polling unit to Ogun state?

Osunbande must have felt very stiffled with undue indulgence and blind loyalty to tinubu. Aregbesola did mention during his fight with Tinubu that they had been according tinubu so many underserved praises and loyalty, still he was insatiable.

Osunbande must have seen how he'll go into obscurity after his tenure if he didn't aspire higher.

Still, there could have been a discussion between the two to agree.

Osunbande must not be president after being VP and Tinubu must not be president considering his age and visible health status. Still both are constitutionally qualified to contest.

But why couldn't the two so called omoluabis agree on a position that would have saved Both this growing campaign of calumny??

Why why why?

At what point did they fall out?

The heading is intentional and not misleading as you think.

You have asked some valid questions over there. At least if there had been any crack between Tinubu and Osinbajo, the transfer of voting polling unit to Ogun state would have alerted Tinubu's camp of the intention therefore raise the question of such moves. But there was nothing like that even while the rumour of Osinbajo was loud, Tinubu camp didn't make any noise.

Was a plan to distract PDP?

What do you mean by spiritual?

Tinubu wanted the ticket, he planted his agents to know his agents within the presidency to know if the would support his ambition, he conducted an independent underground check to know a popular candidate that could win the the presidency, the opinion poll favours Osinbajo, he hinted Osinbajo to get prepared and start consultation, when he finally confirmed that he would not get maximum support, he prompt Osinbajo to declare, with that he stand the chance of retaining his political status.

Let me get you. Are you saying Tinubu it was who drafted osunbande into the race? As in, it's all planned out by both men?

That's is very likely. The other option is for him getting approval from the president.

Tinubu seems to be a shield for APC candidate such as Osinbajo or anyone APC presents, something has to be done if APC is to retain the president and such thing must be intelligently crafted. I think the big picture is what APC can do to convincingly win the presidency since the electoral law is going to drastically reduced rigging and voters manipulations that calls for all these confusions that are staged to confused the populace

Make orna dey console ornasef. Orna no wan believe say pastor like betta thing like every oda sinner. Orna dey hope sey Tinubu get one kind masterplan to put yoruba agenda for Aso Rock blueprint. No worri, orna eyes go soon clear

I too pity you. Orna no know how many enemies orna don collect

There's no enemy anywhere, the only hindrance APC has is PDP but they are not a threat you can call enemy, I ve seen many of their attacks working in favour of APC.

Reno and Kperogi are doing a very poor job just like the way FFK sold APC to Nigerians in 2014. PDP are lazy party that don't deserve to win in 2023

You are apolitical pundit

It is Mr President that gave him the nod to declare, the VP did a lot of consultations before making such moves. He has built popularity over the space of 7 years.

Osinbajo has a strong backbone and it is easy for him to go on

Mr President said in an interview that He cannot say his candidate because they might kill him,we know it was the Vp he was referring to, so I am very sure it is the President that gave him that go ahead to declare after much consultation

LMAO!
Power is sweet my brother, Osibanjo has tasted it, plus the presidency is a job with no accountability or consequence!

Osibanjo is not contesting, at the end he will step down for Tinubu.
