Anyone with the Obi,Okorocha, Emeka or Chukwu can never be the president of Nigeria.
How you don't know this beats my imagination.

Olodo. A multi-millionaire businessman and trader no reach to get N250m in cash? That’s less than $300,000 in 2009. You people forget he’s not a career politician. That could have been money for clearing goods and other port procedures. How did the case end?

For some geopolitical reasons, the Hausa Fulani oligarchy could also not contemplate, Lawan, who is Bade, a minority of minorities
arising to empower Northern minorities as president. Even more, many of the governors were also fixed on becoming vice president to a Christian president who they were priming to be Fayemi.

Lawan is bade. A minority of minorities.
Likewise some others from minority tribes that are leaders in the north.
But ipob the terrorist thought all northern leaders are fulani.

What Nigerians don't understand is the fact that Nigerian Political Party Primary Election Convention is strictly a business transaction that usually goes to the highest bidder.



In Nigeia, Party Primary Elections is purely business not for the masses.


Delegates are selected by Governors and given to loyalists as compensation for being loyal to the State party leadership. In some States, once you are selected as a national delegate, you will be told to forget any other political ambition within the state because you have been settled.


Settled in the sense that they expect that you will use your delegate status or vote to make money for yourself and that's why delegates usually go with the highest bidder and not to their closest brother.



Also, Nigerians have been rendered poor such that even those earning good salary and those currently occupying political posts are still scared of their tomorrow due to volatile nature of Nigeria's economy.


This has made Nigerian politics to be solely driven by moneybags which politicians like Tinubu carries.



It is an unfortunate situation for Nigeria and Nigerians.


And what Nigerians don't know or know but don't care about is that whatever amount a politician spends trying to get to power, he or she will recoup multiple times before thinking about communal developments.


Its a pathetic situation for Nigeria, and only an awaken youth force can change things gradually. Let it start with 2023 election.


Vote personality not party. Voting according party popularity has never taken Nigeria to anywhere good, let's make a change come 2023.

Everything you said is facts. I still told someone yesterday that our problem In this country stems from the primary system. A system that completely shuts out the masses and leaves it to a bunch of delegates who vote based on how much money they are offered and not the will of their constituents is completely flawed and ridiculous.

That’s how we always end up with having to choose between the devil and the deep blue sea in every single general election because we have no say in who emerges as nominee in both parties to begin with. It’s utterly ridiculous.

We claim to be practicing American style democracy. Maybe we should study how the Americans conduct their primaries and emulate that.

Had buhari focused on a successor Like normal President do, he would got one since 2019 quickly after election and the new man. would have silenced tinubu and ensure continuity. But I just realised now that this man is probably no longer in control of his vitals.

As long as I vote Peter Obi for president, I will be satisfied. Whether or not he wins is not my headache.

Hehehehe
the youths are coming

they have no manifestos to campaign with apart from their usual old tribalism and tribal card tactics.

But we'll remind them that tribalism won't bring back dollars to at least 400
tribalism won't bring back fuel to 95 naira
tribalism won't send our undergraduates back to school.
tribalism won't fix our security.
tribalism won't develop our economy.

2023 will be the youths vs the criminals
it won't be business as usual.

See, in all of this,the Tinubu camp should be grateful buhari did not interfere. We should not present it like Tinubu outsmarted buhari. I think the president had a last minute change of heart and let things play out. Stop getting all cocky!

In fairness, I don't think it is the Tinubu's camp that is getting cocky here. Rather, this is a journalist's view and journalists are not particularly infallible especially when they have to rely on hearsays.

It is given in the corridors of intelligence, a guy that observes more than he talks is often ASSUMED TO BE INTELLIGENT. This assumption is often false. The same error is often found in most companies corporate progression where boses seek weak subordinate to replace him in the corporate structure as he progress.

Someone has just demonstrated that to Nigerians for the past eight years. If you like take it and learn.

In the USA, every presidential election is preceded by three programme presidential elections debates where each presidential candidate is given opportunities to speak to the public, be question by the public and listened to by the public. Therefore, every member of the public in the USA can assess the candidate and deside to vote for or against. In Nigeria, bread paper was presented as certificate and accepted by the public. Biggest shame. I just don't know why the Nigerian state can not follow this American political practice to presidential election debates.

Political writers in Nigeria calling themselves journalist are culpable criminals for the current state of the Nigerian people and economic slump being suffered. We thank God Almighty for seeing the end of bread paper certification.

At least Atiku and Tinubu would probably provide educated approach to federal government of Nigeria in the coming years.
Let us hope for the better.

Yes but if it were Tinubu then it would mean he's a thief.

Same Obi put the money back in the state account, you are there making excuses for him.

It is not complicated. First, Tinubu na your mate? Nobody understands Nigeria and Nigerians more than Asiwaju. He knows all the pressure points of Nigerian politics to a tee. He was just pressing buttons throughout the primaries. Secondly, some powerful Northern governors were for Tinubu and those who were neutral insisted the ticket must go to the South. At that point, all the shenanigans from Adamu was just a waste of time. Remember, after Adamu announced Lawan as consensus Tinubu came out out to say 'E fo kan ba le (meaning his supporters should not worry). There is no universe where Adamu will thriumph over people like El Rufia. Third, Buhari did not really give a flying fvck were the ticket goes. The only thing he cared about is that APC retains power. Tinubu got what he wanted and the governors also got what they wanted happened. Shikena.

It’s cos the greedy man was contemplating a third term agenda that he forgot to have an early successor.

He got 100% support from Tinubu and Ameachi but couldn’t even give 10% support back, such an evil man who deserved to loose like he did.
