No now, don’t start changing the narrative. They are all joining APC to make sure the party will lose in 2027 and they will takeover the defeated party. Don’t be ashamed of your Obidient logic

Okay. Wasn't that on the Pantami thread? Did he ever leave the APC? Don't just come back in 2027 to say Pantami never voted Tinubu. We will remind you of your comments celebrating his "stay" in the APC.

If it does, what can Tinubu do about it? Does he have a choice? Akpabio boldly sat before the Senate and mentioned that he's scared of Trump and don't want no smoke. Even Tinubu stayed back in Nigeria for a long time after Trump's threats until he capitulated to all demands and got the all clear. Only to go fall face flat in Turkey.

Aminda, another one has gone to APC to wait for the party to lose in 2027 so that he can take over in 2027 . Oya, come and teach us politics as usual.

Do we now celebrate and accept "former this and former that?" I thought that was an ADC thing? Lol. Here you are celebrating Suswam's defection but you told us Donald Duke is a nobody because he's a former governor.

DW Africa, a foreign media, is reporting it while our local media have all been compromised and placed on payroll to suppress news. As usual, Tinubu will be making no single comment on this. His handlers might even hide the news from him.

seunmsg:
Aminda, come and tell us how they are simply going to APC to wait for APC to lose in 2027 so that they can take over the defeated APC after 2027 election

Why not tell us how they are going over to be handed automatic tickets while the loyal older APC members with ambitions that have been building the party are left holding the shortend of the stick and expected not to work against the party.

You people Sabi cap Sha...



Imagination jus full una head....


You think people don't have ambition or don't know what pays them....


You always thinks your side is the only side that have something to offer....

Which is why we say we will all learn politics together. Tinubu does not own the APC. An aspirant choosing to pursue his political ambition in the APC is not tantamount to supporting Tinubu. He's already falling face flat in Turkey, what's the worst that can happen?

Even when Buhari was in power and his cabals wanted to impose a different presidential candidate, Tinubu stood up to the cabals and outplayed them to emerge as the party’s candidate. Considering all the new governors, Senators, Reps and other political heavyweight that Tinubu has personally brought into the party since 2023, anyone thinking Tinubu does not have absolute control over APC is either ignorant or mischievous.

When Tinubu is done with his second term, he will personally impose the presidential candidate of the party in the 2031 election.

This is the major reason why most Buhari supporters will no longer be voting Tinubu in 2023. The lies and rewriting of history after winning. Who exactly are the Buhari cabals? Same Buhari that voted Tinubu and showed his ballot? Same Buhari that had to do a video before the election? Were the cabals more cabal than the likes of Elrufai that inspired Northerners to vote Tinubu and even took CBN to court during cash crunch? How else did you think Tinubu managed to get 5.6m votes? Which is over 2 times higher than the votes he got from the entire South.

seunmsg:
Why are they all snubbing ADC?

Contrary to what you all think, Tinubu does not own the APC even though he tried to scheme all other blocs that formed the APC out in favour of ACN. Someone has to stay behind and rebuild the party to its original ideals once Tinubu is voted out in 2027.

Okay o. We will all learn politics together.

You tribal bigots who are mostly supporters of Tinubu who by the way cannot lace Obasanjo's shoes have little or no shame

Obasanjo constructed the Lagos Ibadan expressway. That is still the longest highway in the SW till tommorow and probably the first 3, in Nigeria

You can use your phone to abuse OBJ who isnt an ethic bigot like most of you,it was Obasanjo that brought Mobile telecomunication to Nigeria

You can put your Money in the bank and go to sleep now,it was Obasanjo that did it. Those two above leaped our econommy from obsucrity to Prosperity. You cannot even argue it.

Those are just little o as I dont have time for arguments,things that have beaten his successors hands down. What has your yeye Buhari and Tinubu done except ethnic politics

Shior

A little correction. Obasanjo didn't construct the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. Buhari did it.

Security is barely improving. They have only placed a media embargo on reportage with only few media outfits still reporting on insecurity. As far as APC is concerned, if it isn't reported then it never happened.

You are giving kudos to NRC, good and fine. That's one among the 3 major legacies of Late President Buhari in the Southwest. The other two were Second Niger Bridge (delivered) and Abuja-Kaduna-Kano highway. Those are concrete evidence of where the Chinese loans went towards. Can we please see commensurate infrastructure by Tinubu in the North or where his Worldbank loans went towards? Buhari completed the other two outside his region while hoping his successor will complete the one in the North. Rather, Umahi came onboard and revoked the Abuja-Kaduna Road from Julius Berger while awarding it to an obscure company called Infiouest. You need to see the substandard job they are currently doing there all in the guise of concrete road.

Spatta:
What you don't know is that, the man uses experts across every field of excellence to work for him. So while you are seeing a man who seemed incapable because of age, the real people doing the job are all the experts he employed . That is how smart people operate

Who are these experts? Are they ghosts? Or are you talking about Wale Edun, who has just been tactically sidelined, and Yemi Cardoso?

ayoncox:
Look at this screenshot

We are now bowing to imperialism and impoverishing our people just for a pat on the back from Bretton woods. No third world country will escape the poverty trap without home-grown and tailored policies that factor in their own peculiarities.

ayoncox:
Structural Adjustment was an internal C I A policy for devaluation of currencies of emerging economies via Global Financial Institution you can read Super Imperialism The Origin and Fundamentals of U.S. World Dominance Second by Michael Hudson

Is it a coincidence that Tinubu has resuscitated the Structural Adjustment Programme while renaming it as Renewed Hope Reforms?

seunowa:
All the countries that failed due to the world bank and IMF policies are mostly countries whose politicians are riddled with corruption and insincerity in their own policy frameworks such as the structural adjustment programme in Nigeria under IBB. Structural adjustment programme of IBB failed due to political instability, corruption among the political office holders and insincerity from IBB himself. When they fail to follow through with world bank and IMF recommendations, the same politicians will tell the un-informed citizens that aworld bank is the reason for their failure.

IBB's government was a Saint compared to the heist currently going on under this government. Despite record-breaking loans and much touted revenue, we are currently implementing 3 budgets concurrently due to paucity of funds. This has never happened before.

Let us see his giant strides in agriculture. 80% of the source of livelihood in the North is agriculture.

muykem:
Those are the bodies in charge of world economy. They have both skills and knowledge to focast and measure. I know that you believe Peter Obi a third class in philosophy than IMF and world bank.

Why not mention just one country that has attained development by blanketly following the policies of the Worldbank and IMF as Tinubu is currently doing. Just one please. I recommend you go read the book, "Confessions of an Economic Hitman." Also, go study what the Structural Adjustment Programme (SAP) did to Nigeria under IBB.

Worldbank official? The desperation and quest to always seek validation from Worldbank and IMF would have been funny if it wasn't so pathetic. "Confessions of an Economic Hitman."

Watch all Agbadorians who earlier supported SRJ and went up in arms against Wike do a 360 and begin to sing his praises. These people have no mind of their own. They are morally flexible.

Funny. Nothing wey we no go see for Agbado Bureau of Statistics hand. Is this also one of the achievements of Tinubu?

Makinde and Wike are both playing a script. The script was to destroy the PDP for Tinubu, which they have both succeeded in doing. Unfortunately, it offered them no advantage and has rather united all opposition under one umbrella. They never saw that one coming.

You mean the same snake oil merchant that supported Wike in all his excesses until recently when he began to attack him when it seemed he was going rogue against the APC? He's now back to supporting Wike again having seen that Wike may be gaining the upper hand against Fubara. To him and the rest of the other snake oil merchants, there's no right or wrong. It just depends on whether you standing on the mandate or not.

Burob:
Like u rightly attributed, the devil we know Tinubu is better than the presumed angel Gringory Obi, the north will never vote for a person like Gringory Obi, end of discussion, he will never enter Aso Rock, unless as a visitor.

The truth is a very bitter pill that must be digested, to get cured of the ailment.

If the North voted Tinubu despite not knowing anything about his background but for the sole reason of aligning with Buhari to remove Jonathan, why won't the North vote Peter Obi? It's just that with the North, it's strictly politics. Nothing goes for nothing.

SadiqBabaSani:
I like Peter Obi,

Of all the contemporary Nigerian politicians, non cancelled stand toe-to-toe with him in matters of accountability, accessibility, empathy and fiscal discipline.

The only problem is that, the complexity of the Nigerian political environment especially when dealing with Northern political interests means all those vital considerations to been a good leader in other parts of the world becomes secondary considerations.

Northern political elites don't give a hoot about any of those characteristics that will make Nigeria rise to its true potential where merit drive reward.

Bola Ahmed Tinubu's personality is still shrouded in deep mystery because he has not provided logical answers to certain doubts about his origin, education and the likes, but when it comes to the games of politics he is the match for the Northern political elites politics of entitlement.

For this Reason, I want TINUBU to continue, he is the only match to the blood sucking, demonic style politics of the most dependent region of Nigeria acting like spoilt kids.

When I look at the North, I hate their political elites the more. These people have weaponised religion to become something else.

Much ado about nothing. Who made Tinubu president with 5.6m votes? The North. Who's currently Tinubu's Vice? The North. Who will Tinubu be handing over to if he manages to win re-election? The North. Who will Tinubu be relying upon to win his re-election? The North. Who did Tinubu align with to get Jonathan, his Southern brother, out of power? The North. Don't bother about the North. They can take care of themselves. All you should be asking is "what's in it for my people?" Tinubu will not campaign in the East if he's assured of Northern support today. He didn't campaign in the Southeast in 2023. There is no possible permutation where the North loses out completely.

.

The governor is the head and the leader of the people of the State, but there is always the structural leader that do not allow the structure of the State to collapse, many of you GenZ will never understand party structure. PDP collapsed because people like Obasanjo, Atiku, Jonathan were selfish, no true leader in their party or State. They rather allow their wish reign rather than hold the structure together. if the party will fall, let it fall, if the State will collapse, let it collapse syndrome..... Against all odds, Lagos has remain undefeated by any party because the structure is in place, governors come and go, but the structure must stand. That is what Tinubu is trying to break down to them both.

Okay baby boomer. Is Wike a member of the APC?

TokoEkambi:
Lolz. Someone believes in that tripe about everyone supporting whoever wins the ADC primaries. Many are leaving the ADC the moment they lose the primaries. Only 2 year olds and adults with memory that lasts for all of 10 seconds will believe that pish.

Many will also leave the APC after the primaries, yes? Or is this only applicable to the ADC?

So Tinubu is playing politics of different strokes for different folks? Where then is the fairness and what's the political ideology of the APC under Tinubu. Shettima goes to all the other states to say that governors are the political leaders of their states but in Rivers, Wike is a sacred cow right? Posterity will not be on the side of Tinubu and the rest of the snake oil merchants.

What does it matter since all the state governors are now in the APC? Who will hold them accountable if they choose to embezzle the money as most are currently doing while playing sycophant to the president?

Infrastructure are not just done to cater to present demand. They are done with future expansion and population implosion in mind. Lagos was planned with the then current realities in mind. They didn't factor future increase in mind and it's now more expensive or impossible to do so. Abuja learnt from Lagos's mistake.

IkeOnyia:
What do you think? If Peter Obi loses out in 2027 as expected, is there any hope of him entering Aso villa as President ever again considering that he is getting older and he might be getting more frustrated. Remember that he cried on national TV in 2023 after he lost to the current president Bola Tinubu.

What do you think, Nigerians?

If Peter Obi does not contest in two future electoral cycles, he still wouldn't be as old as Tinubu currently is. And we are talking real ages here, not football age. He will also be much fitter too.

blamingthedevil:
The OP must be ADC member that deliberately omitted the #10 billion part?

Don't forget, Malami was an accomplished lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria before becoming AGF. He has told you how he earned the 10 billion naira. The onus is on you to disprove it. I thought the EFCC said he stole 250 billion, why are they now sueing him to court for 8 billion. Anyways, we will also interrogate Tinubu's sources of income and how he made his money as soon as he leaves office in 2027.
