BlueRayDick:
The kind protest no make sense na. Which one is Obi or nothing?

There's nothing that suggests Obi would've wọn the elections on a national scale. Even me that voted Obi is still surprised he could pull the figures he did in places like Lagos , Kaduna and Plateau .

Na dem PDP supposed dey spear heas this kind protest vos theu have the national spread and have a good case in plaves like Rivers , Kogi and other parts of the north .

We all know there were cases of rigging and disenfranchisment and all, but me i no too really support this kind protest amd the theme jare . Obi or nothing ke ?

It was necessary though, when a mentee feels he can challenge the mentor, the mentor will cut him off.

If Oyetola wins at the Appeal Court, Aregbe will have nowhere else to run to.

larride:
Aregbe is the leader of Osun TOP

The koko is that Aregbe wants Asiwaju to give him free hand to do as he pleases in Osun.

Aregbe defer to Asiwaju on picking Oyetols after Aregbe tenure, immediately Oyetola entered he began to reverse most of the anti people policies that Aregbe did in the state, that's the genesis of the beef between Aregbe and Oyetola, Aregbe claiming that Oyetola was trying to clear off his legacy. Then issue of appointments came in also, Aregbe claimed that Oyetola didnt give him the desired slot to fix him own loyalist who worked for the party but instead Oyetola created his own loyalist.

In all these Tinubu decided not to intervene and ask both Oyetola and Aregbe to settle between themselves but the 2 man couldn't. Then Aregbe began to claim that Tinubu didnt intervene or order Oyetola to do his (Aregbe) bidding because Oyetola is Tinubu cousin. Meanwhile in Lagos Tinubu gave Aregbe free hand over Alimosho LG, he has been the one calling the shot there but when the beef started, Tinubu took the structure away from him and gave it to someone else and also remove him from GAC which inadvertently means Aregbe was left with nothing but to fight it all in Osun. The rest is history.

Nigerian Reddit is usually the place to be. It has polls too. Like every single poll

He needed the right time and this was the perfect time
This is The Tinubu Chess game

Opening move decided to go a conservative Sicilian opening
In 1999 he won Lagos State governor

In 2003 when OBJ deceived all SW governors and the AD to not float their candidate that they should support him and in turn he will ensure they retain their seat, Tinubu disagreed with AD leaders on that arrangement. tsunami swept all AD governors only Tinubu survived

Queens gambit declined

He left AD, formed his own party AC and he was the only governor

By 2007 to grow the party he reached out to Oshiomole offered him the AC ticket in Edo vs Prof Osunbor. Oshiomole lost

Atiku and OBJ got into a fight a major fight, Atiku was in charge of PDM he was the strongest Northern politician and as the heir to Yar Adua, OBJ used YarAdua younger brother Umaru to break Atikus hold on PDM
Tinubu saw an opportunity to woo a powerful politician and get on his good side, he gave Atiku a platform to contest the 2007 election obviously Atiku had no path to win. He made Ben Obi Atikus vice. They lost but Tinubus profile started rising
Short side castling

He sponsored candidates in AC all over Nigeria. He brought many politicians treated badly and denied a ticket into his fold e.g Ngige Akume

He brought Fashola a technocrat as governor but didn't hand over the political keys to him
Fasholas performance became the standard for ACN to campaign and win many hearts across the nation
Knight advance

The criminal elections of 2007 conducted by Obasanjo which was reputed to be the worst election in Nigerian history handed Tinubu a huge opportunity
He found an ally in Justice Salami of the appeal court who was instrumental in restoring the Oshiomole and Fayemi and Aregbesola into power
AC grew into 4 states.
Open file Bishop

Mimiko of Labour Party who was denied the ticket was also in tribunal vs Agagu. Tinubu approached him to provide logistic support with belief that Mimiko will decamp into ACN. Mimiko won but declined to join ACN

By 2011 Tinubu spread beyond the SW approached strong politicians who were denied a ticket or chased out of strong parties but knew he couldn't take on the FG alone at this time. He was the 3rd force in 2011

Buhari controlled all Northern states with his new CPC, Jonathan and PDP controlled most SE NC and SS states

CPC and PDP were stalemate here comes tie breaker Tinubu.

Buhari in his idealistic thinking felt he could do by picking Bakare a Pastor with zero structures. He didn't agree to Tinubus terms.

GEJ saw the opportunity approached Tinubu who tactically floated a dummy Ribadu and Fola Adeola(2 moslems who had zero political structures and were barely politicians) he knew weren't going anywhere. Tinubu stepped down all ACN machinery in the SW and allowed the PDP a free ride.
Knight fork
Now he has become a major power broker who tactically made Jonathan president without appearing to.

Buhari lost again and started crying on TV and was hopeless. As a man of strategy Tinubu knew Buhari was at his low and vulnerable, he approached Buhari this time Bubu was more than willing

After winning in 2011, Jonathan started some aggressive moves to break Tinubu so he won't have to beg everytime. One of such moves was to make a SW Mulikat Adeola Speaker, Jonathan thinking was to raise a powerful SW politician that will be an alternative to Tinubu.

Tinubu knew this was an act of aggression on their gentleman handshake and he mobilized the ACN reps to reject Mulikat and support Tambuwal,
Another gambit. Bishop sacrifice to gain a strong position

Tinubu started the cleanup of Buharis image from a clueless out of touch military religious extremist guy to this misunderstood charming, introvert, gap toothed, strong man that Nigeria needed at this critical time to get rid of corruption and PDP in discipline

Thus APC was birthed with the plan to use Buharis popularity with Tinubus money and skilled politicking to push Buhari into power but this time Tinubu was to pick Buharis vice.

APC also won over Atiku after he lost out in PDP and breakaway PDP governors. Atiku came into the convention ground hoping to buy the ticket as usual
Buhari has never done any real competitive primary in a party everyone didn't worship him. Primary ground Buhari was stunned about how Atiku was about to steal the ticket right there with money . Until Tinubu matched Atiku dollar for dollar and Buhari won the ticket

Now the deal was for Tinubu ACN to provide the Vice. Buhari asked Tinubu to give him 3 options.

Tinubu knew he was interested in succeeding Buhari. And giving a strong vice would build up the Vice politically over 8yrs and might build enough goodwill to succeed Buhari
This was Tinubus biggest masterstroke. He gave Buhari an Osinbajo who was smart but has the political clout of a 13yr old girl. Osinbajo was a very safe choice, he was not popular nor charismatic enough to gather the clout to state Jagaban in the face

There were other options like Fashola and Fayemi but they were risky and could get ambitious and endear themselves to people

Buhari asked Tinubu for 3 choices, Tinubu returned with one choice an unknown Yemi Osinbajo who will complete 8yrs and have less to nothing in political power to challenge for the seat
Queen advance

Buhari won election and Tinubu is in a good position Nationall acknowledged as the brain behind the success, thus issues started cropping up, fissures grew in the hurriedly assembled APC. Saraki wanted more than he was offered and broke the party, Buharis packaging has now begun to fall off, the makeup was beginning to melt and the man behind the mascara was beginning to show and its not pretty, Tinubu was schemed out by Buharis CPC friends including Abba Kyari and ElRufai, Things were not going to plan
Should he pull out of the APC, blurt out or maintain status quo and reach out to enemies
The Queen beat a tactical retreat

Comes 2022, Tinubu has broken into the ranks of governors in his party and showing loyalty to them in times of trials won him a lot of die hard loyalists like Oshiomole and Ganduje who will lay their lives for him
By now Tinubu had taken control of all the APC structures and wanted the party to go for a direct primary, Some felt there was no way they could match the network of Tinubu in a direct primary and pushed for indirect where only chosen delegates voted
Tinubu called upon his network of Governors and allies when Buhari wanted to anoint Lawan, they stood up and insisted it goes to the South
He won the primary and cleared the road for an eventual checkmate

Rook to center

You can see it was a gradual ascension filled with scheming gambit which he lost some but won many

I can write a book on this man called Jagaban who many people do not like but smart people deeply respect

He understands politics. He is smart enough not to fight anyone thus always leaving the room for reconciliation open, the power of compromise give & take, persuasion and when to use the power of money

Most times those who fight Tinubu can only do it on the pages of paper By the time you meet him, His humor, his slow thick voice, his offer he will give you, You most likely will leave him calm and ready to compromise

But even on Nairaland the gap is so much. Even on this thread, the poll has Obi over the yellow stained teeth drug baron.

Like every poll, like every single poll had Obi in an unassailable lead. I'm not sure where you BATstards were getting the results from.

larride:
The loss in Lagos is less than 30k votes
Loss in FCT is less than 150k votes
Loss in Kaduna is less than 7k votes
Loss in Kano is actually a gain because PDP their rival got 100k+ while APC got 700k+. That's 600k+ margin

Margins are what's important.

They didn't see it coming.

But on a serious note, Dayo himself is guilty of the arrogance he's accusing his fellow APC members of. Now he's saying they should be humble and reach out to build bridges, yet as at last week he was burning bridges with his mouth.

His mouth was running faster than his brain when he was trying to play the tribal card while campaigning for his principal last week. Fine, some Igbos, Hausas and other tribes might be guilty of what he said in the interview but knowing Lagos is a cosmopolitan state that it is with indigenes and non-indigenes in large numbers, he shouldn't be rehashing what they say in the corner of their campaign office live on TV like that. He should be trying to win their votes and not rile them up
