Stop lying abeg. Majorly from dangote refinery IPO. Which yeye Reform

Even if. Dangote refinery is in Nigeria and in Lagos that Tinubu built.

I wonder what you'll be saying if nobody is subscribing to Dangote refinery shares.

mikeapollo:
Comparing Tinubu to Awolowo shows that you are grossly empty and totally ignorant.

Again, Awolowo and Abiola attended schools here in Nigeria and had classmates.
They never had skeletons in their cupboard that they hid from the citizens.
FBI had not criminal records about them

Lol. The same Awo you guys claimed drank ratak or the MKO your people call drug dealer. Leave wetin no concern you abeg.

The (Obidient) hunter has become the hunted, I raff in Chinese.

They'll so explain

The insult wey this king go chop today. He'll think 2023 never existed.

1vandragon:
In 1999, the gdp per capita in Nigeria was $400+...

In 2014, it stood at $4000+.

Today, it is $1600...

Is that progress?

In West Africa, between 2014 to 2026, Nigeria is just about the only country that has witnessed a 'net reduction' in gdp per capita...

Nigerians, come January 2027, chose your poison wisely...

Nigeria got the reset it needed. Our economy was some sort of decoy under Jonathan and Buhari couldn't help but maintain the status quo. It won't get harder than this ever again in Nigeria. Or else they bring back subsidy and peg dollar.

Paying subsidy or pegging dollar is not the problem. The problem is can Nigeria afford to peg dollar or pay subsidy without borrowing to pay for those?

Modified:

I don't understand all these mentions. If we borrow money to build infrastructure and to enlarge our economy isn't it better than using it to pay subsidy and then coming to cry that Kenya has better road network and better electricity supply?

Validated:
Malam, go and refund Tinubu's money now because EFCC will be picking him up in June 2027. If you ate Nigeria yam and subsidies money, start vomiting it now.

The people that did the ground work in 2023 that made Tinubu secure over 500,000 votes are talking. Tinubu was not president in 2023 but got over 500k votes. Let's see how it goes this time.

By Desmond Mgboh, Kano

Rabiu Suleiman Bichi, current Managing Director, Hadejia Jamarre River Basin Development Authority (HJRBDA), was the Kano State Campaign Director of the Tinubu- Shettima Campaign Organisation in 2023 . A former Secretary to the Kano State Government and a one-time Chairman of Kano PDP, he spoke to Sunday Sun in Kano on sundry political issues bordering on the chances of the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the forth coming general elections, insisting that Tinubu would certainly overwhelm his rivals in addition to the fact that he would sweep the votes in Kano.

With the recent flag-off of political activities in Nigeria, what are the chances of your party, the APC, in Kano State and in Northern Nigeria?

Thank you very much. APC, as you know, is very. very strong in Kano State and in the whole of the North. In Kano State, I want you to take note of the fact that we have an overwhelming support of the people of the state. Look at it this way. During the 2023 general elections when I was the Director- General of the Tinubu-Shettima- Gawuna- Garo Campaign organisation, APC scored almost 980,000 votes while the NNPP scored almost a million votes. But now the majority of all of us (in these two parties) are now together in the same party. There was no serious movement from the APC to any other party since the alignment of both groups. If at all there had been any defection out of the APC since then, it is just one or two people. But in reverse, all the political heavyweights of Kano State, from all divides, just name any, they are all now in APC and they are currently working very hard to ensure that APC overwhelmingly wins the next general elections.

[b]Let me give you a practical example of the APC surge from my own local government for instance. In Bichi Local Government Area of Kano State, because of the activities of APC, especially the activities of our House of Representatives member, whatever we do we do according to the polling unit, a lot of people have rushed to get their PVCs so that whatever we do, they can be getting these empowerment programmes executed by the APC. Now, we have a list of over 370, 000 registered voters in Bichi Local Government Area. And it is the same thing all over the state. The second factor driving this new push into the APC in the state is that APC under President Bola Ahmed TInubu has done a lot for Kano. I must admit that no President in Nigeria has done what Tinubu has done for Kano State, so many things at a time and within a single tenure- a span of three years. The President is doing his work. He is developing national infrastructure and I think that Kano, we are the darling of this government. I will give you a few examples. When he took over, there was a lot of complaints regarding Kano-Abuja Road. Everyone knows that. People normally spend the night on the road because of lack of good road, but now that project is almost completed. The Kaduna-Abuja end is already completed. Secondly, the road project from Maiduguri–to Kano, which has been going for the last 20 years, it was actually started in 2006, it is almost completed. New projects were started in Kano……
[/b]

There is the general belief that Dr Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso is in full control of Kano politics. Do you think that if we go for an election in the coming months, Tinubu will be able match Kwankwaso?


Where did you get that your “general belief” from? Where did you get it please?

I said that people assume out there…

(Cuts in sharply) …Then, honestly, then these people are assuming wrongly. Let me tell you something… In the last election, the governor of Kano State, Abba Kabir Yusuf was part of the then NNPP and was working with Kwankwaso. Today, the governor has decamped from the NNPP and decamped with all the members of the government – that is his cabinet and all the chairmen of the local government and they were in NNPP before. So my big question to you is, who is left in there with him (Kwankwaso) ? Secondly, APC did not perform woefully against Kwankwaso in the last election. APC was equally strong against him. If you could recall, we went to the tribunal and we got judgment in our favour. And we got the same judgment at the Appeal Court. And when we went to the Supreme Court – you know that the judgement of the Supreme Court, sometimes it is political, sometimes it has to do with general security. You remember that time, the people were brandishing weapons on us, saying they would murder, they would kill, they would torture the judges. It was everywhere. All these voting strength are now in one party. Like I said all the political heavyweights in the state are in one place. And you must also not forget that Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso is now a Vice Presidential candidate of another party under Obi and you know that Kano people with an Obi is a no- go area. This is known. There is no point hiding it. Everybody knows that Kano is not for Obi. So against these backgrounds, how can a Kwankwaso and his party stand a minute chance against Tinubu in Kano State? How can that happen? I think that APC apart from doing well, is also a party that is on ground and APC has done a lot for Kano and I am sure that Kano people are going to reward the President with their votes when the time comes.

If you are asked to project the forthcoming elections in the state, what percentage would you give to Tinubu and APC, and to Kwankwaso?

Going by the trend, I forecast that currently, we expect to get nothing less than 70 per cent of the votes of those who would come out to vote on that day. Let me remind you. I was the Collation Officer of the APC in the 2023 Presidential election in Kano State. President Tinubu, across states in Nigeria, got the highest APC votes from Kano. Bichi Local Government Area produced the highest votes for the President Tinubu in Kano State and in the country- apart from President Tinubu’s Local Government Area in Lagos State. We scored 567,000 votes for the President, more than 25 per cent of the vote cast. That alone gave a 380,000 votes difference in favour of APC, which helped wiped out all the votes that PDP gathered in other states where they were stronger than Tinubu. Now with what we have seen , with what Mr President has done for Kano State, I think that we are going to get more than 70 per cent of votes cast in Kano State.

But I want us to interrogate your predictions against certain obvious indexes. At the moment, the APC in Kano State is nothing but a rainbow coalition of different politicians forged together by President Tinubu for his own sake. Observers also insist that they are yet to have a seamless integration. Together, the public think that this might have some negative consequences on the ambition of the party during the elections.

You see these people don’t understand politics very well. You see the rainbow coalition that you are talking about and the lack of seamless integration often happens before party primaries. But whenever the primaries are concluded and we have clear candidates for the contest, it is expected that every member of the party is working to ensure that APC wins the elections irrespective of whatever had happened before. For example, if we take a look at the legacy members of APC, that is the members of the party before the defection of the governor- which of them will say he will not work for the APC? Who among us will say that he does want APC to win? Nobody will do that. And also, the governor who has more stake in the party because he is the governor and all those who came with him to the APC, none of them will say APC will not win. So, you see we are working hard, we are working harder and we are all working together and all of us are ambitious for APC to win Kano State.

I keep wondering makinde's game plan but I think he's trying to use Kwakwanso template in Kano that made Abba Yusuf the governor of the state.

Me too. Chief Obafemi Awolowo and Asiwaju are my two greatest politicians. No one has matched their impacts.

I used to screenshot my comments case it gets banned but then... Na their loss las las. They'll still perisshh on twitter.

helinues:
Obj really tried honestly

Only problem I have with OBJ is introducing that wicked contract staff to Nigerian labour force. It's a very wicked policy.

If you know people working in Nigerian companies. Especially those that are contract staff. You'll not pray for OBJ. I don't know if that thing can be reversed. I see shege that year as contract staff.

Not only do contract staff not make enough to get by, company staff also look down on them.

Sirianese:
Another shameless king

You come from a place where they are no leaders. And no elders hence no respect. That's shameful.

AMINDA:
His full name is Yusuf Taofeek Subsideen.

Why so I feel like you are not a northerner. You sound like Odin/asgard to me

AMINDA:
The so-called think-tank should shove its opinion where the sun doesn't shine. Atiku will bring back subsidy, and heaven will not fall. And if it falls, it falls!

"APC saying that if subsidy comes back there will be queues reminds me of how I met my wife during Buhari’s time. We were both queuing at a filling station, I saw her behind me & decided to give her my spot. We exchanged numbers & the rest is history. That’s the beauty of subsidy."

- Taofeek Subsideen

It's Toakeek Subsideen now? Not Yusuf?

Because there's no ideology.
Tinubu said before he became president that he'll remove subsidies, education will get more expensive but will be affordable. These type of things were why I like the man. He his serious with his convictions. but dem Obi and Atiku flow with some sorts of unstable algorithm. They look at the people's mood and throw a lamba.

That's 13 votes in 171 wards.

cc: Obidients

Atiku wasted 1.2m USD over Tinubu court case. What more surprises does he have in stock?

Local Government Press Conference.

AMINDA:
@topic, We may not have heard the last of the intrigues that transpired in the Osun election. One key thing that is clear is that there are two camps in the APC waging a silent battle. The Uzodinma-led Progressive governors forum faction and the Peter Mbah-led and Wike-backed faction. They worked at variance with each other in this election and the losing side will not take the humiliation lying down. Tinubu has either picked a side with the Wike faction or in his characteristically typical way, is playing both sides as long as he benefits. None of this will pay him in the long run.

Tinubu now has large elements of the two camps against him. The APC camp who are now aware that Tinubu struck a deal with Wike and Adeleke against his party's candidate and the Adeleke supporters whom are now feeling betrayed by his romance with Tinubu after trooping out in droves to vote for him against the APC. There will be protest votes come 2027, even from APC supporters.

A very long wailing. I hate what Tinubu is doing to you. No one has to live through such torment. I hope you get better. Hopefully.

Someone at the level of Atiku should have known not to contest the coming election.

Him and Obi rejoiced over Osun election in vain.

Nobody de visit Obi. But why?

Predictor3:
The same Wike who said he would have used force to defeat Adeleke in the election?

These are the people some idiots are fighting and jubilating over? People who don't reckon with ordinary Nigerians. Some people have been so happy APC lost to this man in Osun only for the man to start saying he is going to work for Tinubu in the next election

Na you de carry emotions join politics. Politics na politics.

EponObi:
😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 Pataki Adura 😂😂😂

Dem just dey use their heads from left to right to center to top to bottom like say person dey shift manual gear 🤣🤣🤣

Every serious pregnant woman that wakes up every morning should place their hands on their belly and declare "You no go become Obedient IJN" 😂😂😂 Babanla awure 🤣

Bros. Life no easy for Obidients

I will never be OBIdense

A very good prayer point.

[quote author=chopnaira post=140397560]Governor Adeleke also visited Nywesom Wike on his Abuja trip. He brought Davido with him too.

Davido with Wike 🤣 pic.twitter.com/wcFQhC7jPu

too?
The same Davido that put them on world stage? Life no easy for Obidients.

Obidients will be very disappointed in Adeleke. The people he's been moving with will give them heartache.

yarimo:
Fraudsters really full that NDC oo 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Someone said Obi will wait 2 to 3 days before saying he'll bring back subsidy after Atiku had just said the same thing. And Obi people are already clearing way for him. Less than 6 hours.

helinues:
President Tinubu's reelection is a goal

It's a own goal committed by the oppositions.

Atiku is desperate, Obidients are anywhere belle face. All of dem will not rest until they are thoroughly disgraced. It was Chicago university scandal that won Reno to the president side.
