He said in Hausa....

"Now that you've gotten to this age you should thank God and allow others take over because your strength is gone. That's how I see it but some people don't agree. Even the Asiwaju refused to listen, we've been arguing about it. Even two days ago that we sat together we continued to argue with him about it....."

Watch the video from Reno Omokri's own YouTube channel, with translation.

Let someone else that knows Hausa watch the video and confirm my interpretation in their own sentence.

It has been translated to English in the video so you can watch.

I hear Hausa well well, I don't think anyone in his right senses will watch this video and still argue. I doubt it!

Here's a link to the longer video by El-Rufai. The screenshots are below. https://twitter.com/InsideKaduna_/status/1593970118765477894

Back in January this year I wrote about a trick that propagandists and spin doctors use. Someone has deployed that trick many times in the past 24 hours. I'm suspecting that whoever it is has something to do with the PDP because I saw the first video in a PDP group and the second video is being circulated by PDP handles.

The trick

As I wrote here (https://www.nairaland.com/822196/it-begins-me/432#109513316) the propagandist might post a still photo and provide an interpretation of what was happening when the photo was taken, or he might post a very short video which provides no context. Basically, you don't know what happened before or after the picture was taken and so you might interpret it wrongly because you don't know the context.

The first video

Bola Tinubu was reading the protocol part of his speech (where he recognises VIPs at the event) and he recognised the presence of the DG of his campaign organisation, Governor Simon Bako Lalong of Plateau State. He praised Lalong for organising good campaign events and said that it shows what can be achieved when technology is applied. He said that they were at a proper town hall meeting, not like the "Bala blu, blu blu, bulaba" that others were organising.

They posted a short video on that Whatsapp group and it only showed Tinubu saying, "Bala blu, blu blu, bulaba". It didn't provide the context of what he was saying. They then used this as an example to show that Tinubu has a mental illness.

Here's the full video. The remark begins at the 3 minute mark.

Second video

Right now they are circulating a very short version of an old video that has gone viral. In this particular case, both the public and private sides of the video went viral almost a month ago and I think I posted about it on this thread.

They have posted a video of El-Rufai speaking in Hausa Language. They claim that El-Rufai is saying that Bola Tinubu is too old and tired to run for president and that he should rest. They claim that he said that he told Tinubu this, but Tinubu refused to accept it.

What El-Rufai was actually saying (if you see the longer video) was that he was tired and wanted to rest. He said that he didn't want to hold any positions any more and that he told Bola Tinubu this after the primaries, but Tinubu refused to accept it. El-Rufai said that he has a lot of (younger) mentees who are capable of holding any positions and they should give the positions to his mentees instead.

That was the private side of the video and what El-Rufai said there played out in public in the video below. When Bola Tinubu finished his speech, he said that he was not going to leave the stage until El-Rufai promised that he would stay back in Nigeria (after his term as governor) to serve the nation. El-Rufai had to promise that he would serve, but he said that it could be part time.

Or they will say it is an old video. I don't know the difference between old and new vedio. Tinubu's surpporters are below human in reasoning.

If this man go die there na only God go save us from Shettima

Heaven!!! So you still find a way to argue this video? Then where is the original longer one?

We're really in trouble in this country!

If not for Islamic terrorism, El-Rufai would have been a good man. The Ethnic and Religion dwarf of a bigot is a little bit sincere.

Hehehehe

You are a fraud my friend. I just watched your video and even that one is just over a minute long, and I can still translate that one for you word for word. That video is definitely a lamentation about Tinubu and his many woes even the one you posted.

But you said if truly he, El'rufai, doesn't want appointments why did Tinubu take him to the Chatham house for Tinubu's own debate and dishing him questions ment for himself?

Make unna dey fear God oh? There are more than 200 million people in Nigeria and this is who you're rooting for?

Your your video is even shorter than mine. Your video says completely different thing from mine, yours is a different topic entirely.

Na so unna want punish Nigeria? What did we do to you people? How did more than 200 million people offend you?

Is there any other person here that hears Hausa? Please help us translate it in your own sentence.

I've been here for almost a decade. His twisting of obvious truth is surprising cause I thought he was unbiased and neutral.

His weak defense is very shocking. Even Naptu2? Wonderful!!

Come February 25th, Nigerians will retire him unceremoniously

The video clip was taken out of context deliberately. He wasn't saying that Tinubu was too old but that he (El Rufai) was ready to retire. Locked.
