The story of Tinubu's ascension to the Presidency will probably never be matched in the history of this country.

I remember a highly connected friend telling me, there's no way out for the man. He is out, he said. He was 100% sure the man would not become president.

The intrigues, obstacles, trials, plots etc, and to top it all, the famous Abeokuta 'emilokan' speech, which I now believe to be one of the most impactful political speeches of the last 50 years.

That speech sent the country into a gripping non-physical pandemonium, and engulfed his enemies in confusion they never recovered from.

And the rest, as they say, is history.

That's all you guys are concerned about, winning election, there are more pressing issues in Tinubu's governance he has failed in but Tinubu winning election is more important to you guys.....

Gbadugbakun:
Buhari saw what most Nigerians couldn't see. Look at where we are today. To see food chop na problem.

Yesterday was women day in my church. What they gave us as refreshments was zobo and puff puff. Whereas other years the women would cook varieties of soups, swallow and rice.

I deliberately went to church that yesterday so that I can fill my empty stomach but I shock as they started sharing nylon bags with 3 small puff puff and I plastic bottle of zobo. I couldn't cry.

I chop am sha, but e no belley full me.

ddippset:
Rubbish..

Timubu only became president because Buhari was aloof as ever.

He was aloof in picking his successor as much as he was aloof in governing the country.

The man couldn't even put his foot down and work for his preferred candidate to emerge from the primaries.

Stop overrating Tinubu... The only reason he ever succeeded was because Buhari was whom he always was, Buhari!

aylipple:
One thing for sure is if PMB didn't support Tinubu (overtly or covertly), no way on God's green earth would he have emerged APC flag bearer for the presidential polls.

He may not have directed his powers towards Tinubu's emergence but the fact he allowed the party to provide a level playing field for all the aspirants at the time, went a long way in ensuring the eventual flagbearer won the presidential primaries.

One other significant thing the then President did (even though unlawful according to the electoral laws) that some PBAT's rabid supporters like Sam Omatseye won't acknowledge is on the day of the presidential elections - at his PU - Buhari showed his voting slip (indicating he thumbprinted APC) to voters (a subtle campaign even after close of campaigns) & this action was captured by news media & broadcasted; although Atiku ended up winning Katsina's votes, methinks that singular move swayed core Buhari's supporters in the North to vote APC.

aribisala0:
Why was Buhari aloof?
Tinubu's head made him.aloof

ddippset:
Express yourself better let me understand you.

AyeMoJuba:


You are filled with hatred...its no news

Administration of just 9months with a comatose economy...you guys won't even consider the fact there rebuilding is far more difficult

A already dilapidated building must go through the harsh process of rebuilding
Every sane human as all the presidential aspirants categorically stated subsidy must stop, and that the markets forces must be allowed to determine the true value of the naira. The consequences is what we are going through now. There are no other way if we truly wish to become a successful nation free of debts.

But because of political differences, you guys refused to see any good in these laudable policies. You abuse, curse, wish him evil at every opportunity and even create imaginary opportunity just to cast aspersions on the President person.

Continue with it but I can assure you, your vituperations are useless as it won't stop the good work he has started and it won't stop him from coming back and winning again come 2027.

Let the wailers wail continually. There shall be no ending to their wailing.

farouk2much:
Buhari is a bastard... I admited it....... But his move to stop this monkey from presidency is very fantastic.... But we no gree hear....

limeta:
Rubbish then Rubbish now

AyeMoJuba:


Those who are relevant in the society have done far more than this ur useless wailing but where are they today and where's Tinubu?

You are just wasting ur time...Tinubu will be there till 2031
Nothing you or your stupid leaders can do about it.

aribisala0:
better?Who are you my teacher.

Tinubu's HEAD made him aloof
If you understand or not that is your problem the message
Is TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

If you cannot understand ignore it

ddippset:
I like how you put it, overtly or covertly.

By playing neutral and refusing to endorse his successor, Buhari definitely supported Tinubu covertly.
Because Tinubu was the most powerful and richest contestant.

As usual Buhari again played his usual I don't care attitude. And that paved the way for Tinubu..

So anyone who comes here to say that Buhari did not support Tinubu is only playing themself for a foooool.

Brendaniel:


And Tinubu supported Buhari for 8 years to damage the country he is claiming to fix, please tell me another joke...

aylipple:


You get it? Again, anyone who thinks Buhari couldn't have forced his preferred candidate (if at all he'd any) on the party and damn the consequences is a dreamer and living in f00ls paradise; it's like most people still haven't come to the realization about the type of unchecked powers a Nigerian President (or even governor) wields.

Technocrats like Dr. Joe Abah will tell you for free that "after God, fear government" in the context of government, just insert Nigerian President!

ddippset:
Tinubu's head made him aloof in governance for 8 years and made him aloof in his successor's primaries
That's what you are saying

Wow!

You must be a genius from the opposite direction!

PS
I don't have to be your teacher to demand better self expression from you.
We are humans communicating here and not donkeys.

AyeMoJuba:


Who told you he supported him?
Was he part if the govt?
Did he hold any position in the Buhari administration?

When he reprimanded them over a CBN policy and the cabals came for his jugulars, didn't Buhari pretend as if he wasn't aware and allow the boys to rubbish Tinubu?
Where were you then?

Now, you are claiming he was supporting Buhari

You are born to hate anything Yoruba...that's the kernel of all of these vituperations.

onuman:
But Tinubu had Plan B when he formed Yoruba Nation Aģitation group through Sunday Igbogho to realize Oduduwa Republic if Buhari failed to hand over power to Tinubu.
Before now, Oduduwa Sovereign country would have emerged if Buhari had failed to hand Nigeria over to Tinubu.

mabea:
This your comment is not Christ - like. Please stop ridicling that name we so revere.

Lies and propaganda is one thing you people are good at but the truth is greater than lies and propaganda...

ddippset:
El Rufai said it himself...

They visited Buhari 3 times to ask for his preferred candidate.

He reiterated that he had no preferred candidate, they should go to the field.


Only a politically naive dunce would believe that a Nigerian President could not have his way in his own party primaries if he had a preferred candidate.
Not general election ooh, party primaries!

Haba!

AyeMoJuba:


That Tinubu helped him become president made Tinubu part of the govt abi?
Hatred no go kill u bro

When he was bn harassed left right and center and you guys from the East were abusing him that Buhari has used and dumped him...where were u?
