They came to beg on behalf of Atiku

No be lie.

Atiku would have earned himself a good reputation if he had stepped down for someone from the South (not just wike)
But nooo his desperation comes first.

Bergavis:


Atiku doesn't need Obasanjo support. Obasanjo that cannot win his p.unit?

What does obj need his polling unit votes for?

Creamypie:
Selfish politicians only interested in their political carriers.okowa, the governor of delta, no waste your time. U Will never smell presidency. E wan make his daughter house of assembly member

His daughter, Marilyn is just a step away from the house of assembly seat...
APC's Sebastian Okoh is left with only Umunede to rival the six wards of OWA kingdom.
For VP e no clear

Obasanjo is no longer relevant in Nigeria politics,he has been used and dumped by his Hausa/Fulani lords, even his kinsmen do no believe in him anymore, hence he lost his ward in the last election.

KanuSE:

It shows his credibility, acceptability and popularity.

Atiku has no shame at all! How could someone write this about you and you're are still shamelessly hobnobbing with him? Obasanjo that's as vindictive as they come!:



Obasanjo on Atiku

(He has promised never to change a word of it, come rain or shine, about his Vice):

“Without seeking my view or approval, he started planning the installation of Chuba Okadigbo as the senate president. I did a background check on Chuba including his past as a student and made enquiries about him in the National Party of Nigeria (NPN) under (President Shehu) Shagari and no one would recommend him for the post of senate president.

“I left Atiku to go on his chase while I carried out a meticulous and detailed investigation and background check on each senator from the South-east. The one that appeared most appointable was Evan Enwerem. I canvassed the senate across the board for his election and he was elected. Atiku did not expect it and he felt sore. He began to strategise for Enwerem to be removed and Chuba Okadigbo to be installed. His strategy worked because I was at the Abuja airport to receive a visiting head of state when the news reached me that the Senate had impeached Enwerem and elected Okadigbo. I was not perturbed. I came to understand from some senators including Florence Ita-Giwa, who later became my Special Adviser/ Liaison Officer to the National Assembly, that Atiku distributed US$5,000 each to some senators to carry out the ‘coup’.

“That was the beginning of bribing the legislature to carry out a particular line of action to suit or satisfy the purpose or desire of an individual or a group. The National Assembly had tasted blood and they would continue to want more.

From the day I nominated Atiku to be my vice, he set his mind not for any good, benefit or service of the country, but on furiously planning to upstage, supplant or remove me at all cost and to take my place”.

“That was what I brought him for, but he was impatient and over-ambitious. He was not ready to learn or to wait. His marabout, who predicted that despite being elected as governor, he would not be sworn in as a governor, which happened, also assured him that he would take over from me in a matter of months rather than years. All his plans, appointments of people and his actions were towards the actualisation of his marabout’s prediction.

"Once I realised his intention and programme, I watched him like a hawk without giving any indication of what I knew and letting down my guard. I could not succumb to the distraction, diversion and malevolence of an ambitious but unwise deputy”.


Louis Odion on Atiku

in ‘Atiku: The Peril of inordinate ambition’, (The Nation, 16 October, ’22):

“Atiku is a conflicted bigot, consumed by inordinate ambition. He remains a bare-foot slave to an empire the Nigeria of the twenty-first century has outgrown. In 2011, he battled Jonathan for PDP ticket, on the argument that the ‘North has not used up its two term slots’, following Yar’Adua’s death in office on May 5, 2010. (In the meantime, forget that he stubbornly refused entreaties not to go to court when the same Umar Yar’Adua was declared winner in 2007 in the spirit of ‘northern solidarity’ and fought like a wounded lion up to Supreme Court.)

“But he got a shellacking at the PDP primaries in 2011. In 2014, he, still driven by that inordinate ambition, again led the rebellion of nPDP to evacuate PDP in protest of Jonathan’s bid for 2nd (3rd?) term; that it was ‘the turn of power to shift to the North’ for the ‘sake of justice and equity’. In 2018, realizing he stood no chance against President Buhari’s winning 2nd term in 2019, he migrated back to PDP. Of course, he suffered another shellacking in 2019. With the power of dollars, and a thoughtless invocation of the ethnic card at PDP’s May primaries, he overpowered Southern contenders (like Wike) to the presidential ticket”.

"This presidential ‘candidate of habit’ will soon find again that the Nigeria of his depraved, bigoted dream no longer exists”.

Atiku/okowa 2023 insha Allah
God bless atiku/okowa
God bless PDP
God bless Nigerian at large

I wonder how you guys reason. he doesn't need hit support yet on a daily he's sending high class delegate to go and beg him. most of you don't understand this political game.

Bergavis:

Why visiting him?
Olori pelebe

Obasanjo wants power to rotate to the south. He supported Buhari in 2015 for sake of fairness and justice to the north.

That's their own headache, I'm voting for Tinubu and I'll canvass people to vote for him in my neighborhood voluntarily.

Jagaban 2023 is a goal written in heaven and will be signed by voters on earth for a brighter and rewarding future of Nigeria.

Since they informed us when they are going, they should be kind enough to tell us out of the meeting.

Bodmum:
Ebora owu, politics is a game of the elites.

Do you mean Oloriburuku Owu, who could not identify and prosecute the 2001 murderers of his AGF Bola Ige for six years until he left office in 2007, after Atiku frustrated his 3rd term agenda?
Instead the supposed born against president made the principal suspect a senator from prison.

chino11:
You were the governor of Oyo State at the time Chief Ajibola Ige was murdered. What was your experience then?
It was a bitter experience. That very day was a Sunday. It was the day we had our Christmas carol at the Government House. It was a norman Sunday; everything was going on fine. The carol came and went from 4:15 to 6:00pm that day. And then everybody dispersed. As if I got a signal of what was coming, my speech that day was centred on security in Oyo State. I called on the Commissioner of Police and the Inspector General of Police to strengthen security in Oyo State because an old school mate, Engineer Adegeebo, had been assassinated near his house in Bodija a week earlier.

Every cleric went home and I retired to Government House. I played for some time. Then I went to my room to treat some files. I was doing that when suddenly the phone rang. It was land line we were using then. The operator said that somebody wanted to speak with me. Then I picked the call and it was a brother to my deputy. He said he was asked to tell me that Chief Bola Ige had been shot by some unknown assassins. I was confused immediately. I didn’t know what to do. But later I regained my strength and quickly went down without telling my wife what was happening. It was 9:55 pm. I sent for my PS because all the ADC and other security staff had gone to their places of abode. I told him to drive me in one of the private cars. Inside the car, I told him that Uncle Bola Ige had been shot by some gunmen, that I was going to check him at Catholic Hospital, Oluyoro. The man who informed said Ige was taken to Oluyoro.

The place I have been treading for over 60 years, I remember that I lost my way. I was just going round and round until I gained my consciousness again. Immediately the gateman saw me, he quickly opened the gate. There, we saw Uncle Dele Ige, who was already rolling on the ground. I went straight to the room where Bola Ige was lying. I saw marks of bullets on his body. He slept with his face up. He was somehow breathing but the breathing was abnormal. I saw where the bullet penetrated on the left side. I saw it myself. Uncle Bola Ige was wearing shirt and trousers. And I saw Muyiwa standing by the side of the bed. He was wailing. He appealed to me, saying: ”Uncle, please tell the doctor to wake up my Daddy. Tell him. The doctor can do it.” Then, I approached the doctor and asked him the situation. The doctor called me to one side and told me that he was dead. He said: “Sir, Your Excellency, Uncle is gone. There is nothing we can do. They shot him straight in the heart. He asked me not to tell Muyiwa.

I almost betrayed my emotion when I got back into the room where Uncle was lying with Muyiwa beside his bed. I just quickly gathered myself and told Muyiwa that I was going to see the head of the hospital. That was how I bolted away. I came back to the Government House to inform Mr. President, who was Obasanjo at that time.

By the time I was going upstairs to my room, to try and tell Operator to phone Mr. President for me, the phone was already ringing. When I got into my room, it was still ringing. I quickly picked it up and it was Obasanjo.
He the Operator said the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria wants to talk to you. Then I asked him to put him on.
The question Obasanjo just asked was: “Is he certified dead?” I said: “Yes sir.” Then he dropped the phone. That was all. That was my experience. I can never forget that experience.

Obasanjo as old man is supposed to have retired. The entire Osugbos in Yoruba land and the highest hierarchy of all the Ogboni Councils supposed to have meeting on him.

The second time Tinubu traveled to Europe. Wike and his governors traveled two days later to have meeting with Tinubu. Uninvited and without any prior arrangement, Obasanjo, Peter Obi and At ik u hurriedly traveled to Europe to having meeting with Wike and his governors.

It is very disappointing that Obasanjo in his 80s that is supposed to be in his house for people to be consulting him is now running after Wike and the Governors to Europe . IBB, Abdulsalam Abubakar and Buhari out of office will never do that. Obasanjo run after Wike to Europe to scuttle Wike and the G5 meeting with the main man. Obasanjo was followed by other aspirants. That was the end of such meeting between Tinubu and Wike group.

The Osugbos should tell him to go and rest.

Udaughan lost the battle to give his daughter the house of assembly seat for Warri north state constituency to the incumbent honourable member...
Also all of them are women which the past three governors have in common.
It's safe to say victory awaits them

That's the difference between the Hausa/Fulani and the Yorubas,the latter retire gracefully while directing the youths while the former dine and wine with the youth's he's supposed to show the right paths

All bunch of thieves

Tinubuadvocate:
Igbo think a regional candidate will become a Nigeria president.

Dear Mr urchin baba iyabo is not an Igbo man OK.

I want to ask about PDP. Who are the board of trustees?Who are its board of advisers?Why is a party that has held sway for 16years in such disarray? Even as they go into sabbatical they can't seem to sit back and do proper stock taking, evaluation and assessment and restructure for the way forward.
