Ritchiee: Oga Jonathan is a gentleman but not good in governance. Can you point to 3 tangible projects he initiated and completed with the humongous revenue he made during his tenure? The most funny thing is that he just opened the borders for cheap food and when oil began to sell for mere $78 per barrel,he started borrowing money to pay workers in 2014 after they had depleted ECA and the foreign reserve. He was a total disaster in governance but a gentleman.
How is governance LIMITED to tangible projects?
Since APC invited terrorists to destroy Nigeria, and Tinubu begged Buhari to make Jonathan a one term president, how many litres of petrol have you bought for N70 or less?
How many pictures of APC tangible projects have you used to buy expensive petrol because of their massive corruption in the oil industry, which is complicated by worse UNEMPLOYMENT
I hope you are not a balablu bulaba person like Tinubu, so you know what NEVER means.
anonimi: Petrol should never cost more than N70 per litre, says APC
January 19, 2015
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has described as mere tokenism the reduction of petrol price from N97 to N87 per litre, saying the petroleum product ordinarily should sell for N70.
On Sunday, the federal government announced the reduction of petrol price, citing the fall of global crude oil price.
But the APC through Lai Mohammed, its spokesman, on Monday accused the government of making a show out of deceit, saying “a 10.3 per cent slash in the price of petrol was a mere tokenism at a time the price of crude oil has crashed by about 60 per cent”.
It argued that the pump price of a litre of petrol should not be more than 70 Naira, alleging that at N87 per litre, the government was forcing Nigerians to subsidise the massive corruption in the oil sector by N17 for every litre of fuel.
MIKOLOWISKA: why didn't pdp manipulate against him in Lagos, in ekiti, in Osun against oshiomole in edo or obi in Anambra of its automatic like your saying it
Because PDP’s Obasanjo, Yar’Adua and Jonathan are not as dictatorial as the balablu bulaba master strategist of Nigerian politics.
In Ekiti, Osun, Edo and Anambra states, opposition parties got their mandate back since there was less interference with the judiciary than we have now.
iwaeda: Wike Boasts Of Helping APC Use Judiciary To Kill Osun LG Funds Case, Warns Party Leaders Against Ingratitude
Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has openly boasted that he assisted certain elements within the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in deploying the judiciary to frustrate the Osun State local government allocation lawsuit.
In a video now circulating widely on social media and obtained by SaharaReporters, Wike made the claim while addressing a crowd in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
The former Rivers governor accused the APC National Secretary, Senator Ajibola Basiru, of benefitting from judicial actions against the Osun State Government without knowing those who did the work behind the scenes.
The suit in question led to the withholding of local government funds in Osun State, a development widely seen as targeting the administration of Governor Ademola Adeleke as opposition in the state.
Wike, who spoke angrily, suggested that the court action supporting the APC’s position against the Osun government did not happen by chance, boasting that powerful political forces worked quietly to ensure the outcome.
“Don’t take our support for Mr President for granted,” Wike warned, in an apparent message to APC leaders defending Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara. “You have to be careful about the statements you make. You have to be very careful.”
He accused Basiru of political ingratitude, claiming the APC was enjoying in Osun State without understanding who engineered their advantage.
“Today, you are enjoying in Osun. You don’t know those who did the work,” Wike said. “You are opening your mouth to talk about Rivers State.”
Ritchiee: It is an old 2019 post.I think this was posted here by some failures, losers and haters of Nigeria. Nigeria has consistently positively met the standard since 2021.
Can there be any worse hater of Nigeria than Tinubu, the master strategist who went to Kaduna to beg Buhari to make Jonathan a one term president in 2015, after their demonic party invited terrorists to destroy our country.
Can you imagine that this was the same old Fulani soldier he called expired four years earlier o.
yarimo: The senator made clarifications , but awaiting losers are misinterpreting it in a provocative manner . Kill them with votes
Clarification of his threat?
Was that how Obasa made clarification of his stealing and got released by aspiring dictator Tinubu’s EFCC?
chisomkachy: The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has withdrawn the alleged money laundering suit it filed at the Federal High Court against Lagos Speaker Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa.
Naija News understands that the anti-graft did not give any particular reason for its application for withdrawal.
Following the application to withdraw, Justice Nicholas Oweibo discharged the ‘lien/Post No Debit’ placed on Obasa’s three accounts in Standard Chartered Bank.
The accounts are (US Dollars) 0001852063; (Current) 0001852056 and (Saving) 5002309624.
The judge also set aside the ex-parte orders he made on September 15, 2020, which led to the freezing of the accounts.
Recall that the court on September 15, 2020, granted an interim order freezing Obasa’s accounts following the EFCC’s application in a suit marked FHC/LCS/1064/2020.
The agency had said it was investigating the Speaker for the alleged offences of conspiracy, diversion of funds, abuse of office and money laundering.
But Justice Oweibo, on August 16, 2023, heard the application to unfreeze the accounts in his chamber.
During the hearing, the EFCC was represented by Mr. Sulaiman I. Sulaiman, while Obasa was represented by Mr. Adeyinka Olumide-Fusika (SAN).
The EFCC lawyer told the court that the application to unfreeze the accounts was pursuant to Section 44(2)(K) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended) and Sections 26, 29 and 34 (1) of the EFCC (Establishment) Act, 2004, and under the court’s inherent jurisdiction.
Section 44 of the Constitution concerns constitutional rights to property.
Justice Oweibo held: “It is hereby ordered that an order is hereby granted to the respondent/applicant setting aside the ex-parte orders of this court made on the 15th day of September 2020 upon the ex-parte motion of the Applicant/ Respondent in relation the funds of the Respondent/Applicant domiciled in the accounts stated in the following schedule:
“ACCOUNT NAME, FINANCIAL ACCOUNT INSTITUTIONS, TYPE OF ACCOUNT, 1. Mudasiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered, (US Dollars) 0001852063 2. Mudasiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered (Current) 0001852056 3. Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered (Saving) 5002309624.
“Issued at Lagos, under the seal of this Honourable Court and by the hands of the Presiding Judge this 16th day of August 2023.”

thewinning101: PANDORA PAPERS: Buhari visited Tinubu in corruption-tainted London villa acquired by Oyetola
Governor Oyetola, a relative of Mr Tinubu, may have sabotaged his own country by buying the exotic property as Nigeria made to seize it.
ByNicholas IbekweandTaiwo-Hassan Adebayo October 7, 2021 in Headline Stories, Pandora Papers Reading Time: 8 mins read
It was a meeting of two of Nigeria’s most influential politicians in London – President Muhammadu Buhari was visiting political kingmaker and senior member of his ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu.
In July, the presidency announced that Mr Buhari was heading to London for an education summit. The office also added that the president would also see his doctors for “medical check-up”.
Coincidentally, Mr Tinubu, who had travelled to London earlier, was also receiving treatment for an undisclosed ailment in the British capital. So, a perfect setting for both men to meet was created.
Lithiumite: All these your meaningless inferences that keeps side stepping the very crux of your argument what has the individual interests of the 99 set of govs got to do with the fact that zoning was included in the very constitutional guidelines setting up the pdp.
As the most powerful party at the time it became the convention across board and still one of the key tenets of yhe 4th Republic........atiku conniving to go against his boss in itself was in abeyance of that very principle of power rotation between the north and south, same thing he did in 23 and now 27.
Didn't obj honor it in 07,same as tinubu,same as 15 and 19,if yar adua hadn't died its certain the north too would have had their 2 terms without serious contest from the south whether in the ruling party or in opposition.
If you are not the one using meaningless inferences, you should have shared the PDP constitution with respect to rotation after two terms.

anonimi: The migrant crisis in Libya and the Nigeria experience
JUNE 24, 2019
The drive for survival and for greener pastures has continued to force millions of West African young men and women to gamble with death in attempts to cross over to Europe and other parts of the world. This quest to escape poverty, hunger, unemployment and insecurity, among other reasons, caused a major segment of Nigeria’s population to seek alternatives for better livelihood prospects for themselves and their families.
Those seeking economic survival see irregular migration as the best alternative, given the difficulty and resources involved in migrating through regular and legitimate routes. In many instances, very few of the original number who set out on these dangerous journeys live to tell their stories. While many regularly drown in the Mediterranean Sea, many also die in the deserts, and others are sold as slaves in a modern slave market.
Most of the victims of this trade are from West Africa. Many of them leave home with expectations of getting to Europe and other destinations perceived to have better economic prospects for them, but they end up in the slave merchant nets in North Africa. The victims are put in camps and sold in open markets in Libya, while the international community watches in silence. The geographical location of Libya renders it a transit route for migrants journeying to Italy and many other parts of Europe.
Lithiumite: What has that got to do with anything, obj deserved his 2 terms and it was only politically correct to have the south have their 2 terms so power can return to the north afterwards which was what tinubu and obj fulfilled,whats wrong with that?
Buhari ran and was rejected by his own people based on this simple principle before anything else.......GEj won the SW in 11 because of the common consensus by the north and the south that he should be allowed to complete the justified 2 terms as a part of the joint ticket with yar adua and should step down in 15 which he rescinded.
Power ordinarily and justifiably was to return to the north in 15 considering the south had held it for 14 years as against the north 2 1/2,but gej also greedily jettisoned that and that was why he lost.tinubu on the other hand still tenaciously held on to the gentle man's agreement from a moral and politically strategic stand point and atiku inadvertently lost to buhari in an open contest.
Hiw then can anyone come to justify same atiku's misadventure in 23 and now 27,thats his greatest banana peel and a biggest hindrance to his ambition for his inability to strategically read the political landscape of the country......but it's his right to keep wasting his time and that of his supporters.
How much of what you say is from an informed opinion or from APC balablu bulaba propaganda machine?
What is your source of the two terms rotation? Why is it not one term?
By next year, southerners would have been president for 17 years, unlike 11 years for northerners. This was because Atiku didn’t bow to northern pressure in 2003 for Obasanjo to do one term as he promised.
aieromon: According to sources available to us that time, Obasanjo said he will do a single term but after that, he decided to go for second term. I was physically present at Rivers state Governor’s Lodge when the heat became too much and Obasanjo in the presence of all of us knelt down in front of Atiku begging him to allow him do a second term. I think that was how Atiku missed the opportunity by agreeing to Obasanjo’s plea. His thought was that at least, if Obasanjo completes his second term, he will hand over to him but you all know the story of Third Term Agenda and that was how they fell apart. Atiku had the best opportunity to become president in 2003 and lost it. He had the support of PDP governors then.
Around November 2002, 15 of the 21 Governors from the PDP including me, had an ad hoc meeting at my lodge in Abuja to decide who should be nominated by the Governors Committee for election by PDP as the presidential nominee for the 2003 Election.
The Governors Committee decided almost unanimously to get a new candidate instead of President Obasanjo as the Committee was of the view that because of his military background, he was intolerant of dissent and had displayed very dictatorial and vindictive tendencies against those he perceived to be independent-minded and disloyal to him.
Immediately after the Governors meeting, I led the delegation of Governors to meet the then PDP Chairman, Chief Audu Ogbeh, at his residence around 2 am.
As the leader of the delegation, I spoke and communicated the views of the Governors to the Chairman, which was that the Governors had decided not to support President Obasanjo as PDPs nominee for the 2003 General Election.
The party chairman tried to persuade us to review our decision but when he saw our resolve, he told us that he would inform the President. I was later informed by Chief Audu Ogbeh that after we left his house he put an urgent call to the President and informed him of our decision.
What then followed were intense consultations before the PDP annual convention which took place in January 2003. Two days before the party convention, the Governors had a breakfast meeting with President Obasanjo.
I recall that at that meeting, the then Vice President Alhaji Abubakar Atiku told the President in the presence of the Governors that he was known to be very dictatorial, vindictive and unforgiving. The President appealed to the Governors to support him and assured both the Governors and the party leadership that if he was allowed to continue for the second term, he would adopt a more democratic approach.
On the basis of the President's assurance, given at that breakfast meeting, I led the move for the Governors to support his presidential nomination for the second term. However, notwithstanding my support for President Obasanjo's nomination for a second term, the President after the nomination, acted very shabbily towards me.
When I met him soon after the convention, he told me that he had learned that I had put forward the view that he was unsellable, unmarketable and unelectable. He then vowed that he was going to make sure that I was unsellable, unmarketable and unelectable.
Atiku Camp - Visit Wikileaks and type the following in the search bar NIGERIA: DID VP ATIKU OUTFOX BABANGIDA AND OBASANJO DURING THE PDP CONVENTION?
According to Adesanya, Atiku met the governors the first day of the convention; they urged him to leave Obasanjo and seek the nomination himself. Atiku demurred; he also deflected the suggestion that he join Ekwueme. Finally, Atiku arranged a meeting between Obasanjo and the now irate governors. The governors railed that Obasanjo was hypocritically pursuing them for corruption, while turning a blind eye to corrupt politicians within his own Administration. Atiku supported the governor's position, telling Obasanjo that significant corruption was not the exclusive ambit of the governors and that serious transgressions occurred in the executive branch: he said it would be unjust to focus exclusively on gubernatorial excesses. Assuming the role of mediator, Atiku then asked both sides to affirm their mutual support and cease the antagonism being fueled by elements that wanted to destroy the PDP. The governors agreed to bury the hatchet, if Obasanjo would shelve the dossiers. Having demonstrated his influence with the governors, Atiku continued to play coy with Obasanjo.
In the end, Atiku extracted an extraordinary concession from the President. Obasanjo agreed to relinquish the entire domestic agenda to Atiku, including the appointment of key economic policy-makers. Since Obasanjo focused on the world arena during his first term and aspired for recognition as an international statesman, Atiku said that is where he would like Obasanjo's attentions to remain. Obasanjo would serve the role of a "super Foreign Minister" and ceremonial Head of State. As Adesanya understood the agreement, Atiku would be allowed to direct domestic economic policy while Obasanjo busied himself with debt relief, NEPAD, conflict resolution and other measures to shore up Nigeria's image abroad.
OBJ camp - visit Wikileaks and type the following in the search bar NIGERIA: DIFFERENT INSIDER VIEWS ON THE PDP CONVENTION
The President was dazed, Abayomi recalled. Jarred by the unexpected possibility of defeat, the usually know-it-all Obasanjo eagerly solicited counsel on how to escape the closing vise. Early that day, the dominant theme was to seek a court injunction postponing the convention. Proponents suggested the delay to afford Obasanjo time to marshal support and undermine Ekwueme's momentum. However, this idea was ultimately discarded, partially because of apprehension over the public's reaction. More importantly, the push for an injunction became less urgent when the President's advisors began to sense their man was regaining ground by the hour.
The President owed much of his recovery to his own tenacity and, at times, shamelessness. He pulled out virtually all the stops to clinch the nomination, according to Abayomi. For most of that day, the President's diet consisted of liberal portions of humble pie. The President pleaded and cajoled; on at least two occasions his eyes welled with emotion as he pursued fence-sitting delegates and governors. However, Obasanjo saved his best to keep Vice President Atiku from defecting.
With rumor swirling that Atiku would opt to run with Ekwueme, Obasanjo wasted no time visiting the Vice President's residence. Obasanjo begged, declaring he would not leave Atiku's home unless the Vice President accompanied him to win back the delegates and governors. The performance had the desired effect. Atiku joined Obasanjo in publicly lobbying the conventioneers. While it might not have been Obasanjo's finest hour it was the defining moment of the convention. What had been a suspenseful contest would now turn into a rout.
Lithiumite: What zoning arrangement.....did the presidency belong to the south in 2011,wasn't it yar adua's death that upturned the laid down convention......same atiku still ran against gej in the pdp primaries and tinubu still honored the agreement by fielding a northerner.......the major angst against gej in the north was that he rescinded his earlier decision to allow power return to the north in 2015 which was fare and tinubu still respected that by supporting buhari......he could have also ran himself if he was as selfish as atiku who has been running since 2007,11,15,19,23 and now 27
Why did Atiku not run against Obasanjo in 2003, when Baba Iyabo was reminded of his one term promise to northerners, so he can be like Mandela?

This was how the master strategist of balablu bulaba propaganda lies sold Buhari to us in APC change messiah robes, four years after calling him expired.
Prospect of a possible alliance between the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN and Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, was dashed yesterday in Kano as the leader of the party and former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu described CPC as parading “expired leadership.”
Tinubu told ACN supporters in Kano during the party’s Presidential rally that: “What Nigerians need now is a transformation in leadership” as obtained in the advanced economy.
The two-term Governor of Lagos State explained that the leadership of ACN was offering Nigeria the brilliance of Nuhu Ribadu who, he said, is in the class of Nicolas Sarkozi of France, David Cameron of Britain, Medvedev of Russia and Barack Obama of the United States of America.
“What has CPC got to offer? We certainly don’t need expired leadership as we are offering the best in terms of brilliance, courage and patriotism in the class of Sarkozi of France, David Cameron of Britain and Barack Obama of the USA.”
Tinubu’s position came on the heels of Ribadu’s declaration penultimate week in Kaduna when he hinted during a political rally of a joint ticket between the two opposition parties to confront the dominance of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
The national leader of ACN criticised President Goodluck Jonathan for shying away from the national debate held last Friday, stressing that”that singular act exposed Jonathan as a coward who has nothing to offer.”

Lithiumite: What has this got to do with anything? Obj wanted yar adua to succeed him,tinubu supported atiku......he could have ran too by himself of he were to be as uncaring as atiku,but he respected the zoning arrangement and supported power returning to the north .
Why did you mention that, if it had nothing to do with anything?

Kwankwaso is on a mission for 2031, with renewed hope for Tinubu to fail in getting a 3rd term as life president dictator. This was how Obasanjo tried in 2007 and failed because Atiku led other democratic heroes to kill bill in the NASS despite Ghana must go bags of money.
Kwankwaso is the new Utomi.
lexylaw40: The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.
The governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in Oyo State, Tawfiq Akinwale, [/b]on Wednesday [b]stated that the “President-elect” Bola Tinubu asked popular economist, Prof Pat Utomi to step down for Peter Obi in the buildup to the 2023 general elections.
Akinwale made this revelation while he appeared as a guest on a radio programme on 101.7 YES FM, Ibadan, Oyo State, while alleging that Obi received campaign funds from Utomi, whom he described as Tinubu's "son."
The LP aspirant, who spoke in Yoruba language, said "In the buildup to the 2023 elections, Obi who had purchased the nomination form of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), suddenly announced his exit from the party.
"Initially, Pat Utomi had secured the LP's presidential ticket, but when Peter Obi said he resigned from the PDP and joined the LP. Bola Tinubu, a master political strategist, quickly told Utomi, that everyone knows to be his son to step down for Obi.
"The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.
"What Peter Obi didn't know is much more that what he knows, he started collecting campaign funds from Utomi, while Tinubu was giving the money to Utomi.
"This went on until Obi's presidential campaign got to a stage it went beyond target. Obi was used without him knowing," Akinwale said after announcing his departure from the party.
Obi defected to the LP after resigning his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and also withdrawing from the presidential race under the party.
The former governor consequently joined the race for the party’s presidential ticket, while Professor Pat Utomi, in June 2022 stepped down for him to emerge as the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, unopposed in Asaba, Delta State.
Lithiumite: Tinubu had the right to prop up a northerner against gej in 2011 because gej was usurping the tenure of the north which they lost trough years adua's death,thats fairness he even supported atiku another northerner in 07 against the interest of his fellow westerner,obj!!
Tinubu never ran against buhari or GEj in person despite having all the means to, so stop the gaslighting and spinning truth on its head.
What was Obasanjo’s interest in 2007, which Tinubu was against
TopBanter: Absolutely. Most intelligent, progressive and focused political leaders are never religious bigots.
They are religious privately but focus on developing the capacity of men and women to provide solutions for society. Xi Jinping the leader of China, for example, is proudly and openly atheist.
What is intelligent and progressive about increasing budget 100 times over 27 years to achieve less than 5% schools owned by government
seunmsg: At least, he's by far the most competent person to ever become president since 1999. And yes, he's way way above Atiku and Peter Obi in any talk of competency.
Competence in balablu bulaba meaningless propaganda lies in playing politics with no clue about governance
Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister for the Economy, Mr. Wale Edun made this known at the end of the inaugural Federal Executive Council meeting in Abuja. Mr. Edun said that the benefit of the subsidy removal will be plough back into various sectors to improve business environment for local and foreign investment. He added that with the increased revenue from subsidy removal, various palliatives have been made available to cushion its effect on a short, medium and long-term basis.
Ofunaofu: Report: Current Govt Added More Debt in Two Years Than Nigeria Accumulated in 55 Years
• Decries Nigeria’s debt service-to-revenue ratio
•Urges FG to declare fiscal emergency
A new policy brief has warned that Nigeria’s worsening debt profile and weak revenue generation have pushed the country into a dangerous fiscal position, with the current administration accumulating more debt in two years than Nigeria recorded during its first 55 years after independence.
The report, released by the Alliance for Economic Research and Ethics LTD/GTE, a Nigerian policy think tank, argued that the country’s debt crisis has evolved into a governance and revenue emergency, as debt servicing obligations now exceed the federal government’s retained earnings. > > According to the think tank, Nigeria’s public debt rose sharply from N87.38 trillion in June 2023 to N159.28 trillion by the end of 2025, with President Bola Tinubu’s administration accounting for about N65.9 trillion of the increase within its first two years in office.
The organisation in the brief titled: “Nigeria Is Borrowing to Breathe—and the Clock Is Ticking”, noted that Nigeria accumulated only about N12.06 trillion in debt from independence in 1960 up to 2015, meaning the current administration added more than five times that amount in just 24 months.
The report stated that while previous governments also contributed significantly to the country’s rising debt burden, the speed of accumulation under the current administration had intensified concerns over fiscal sustainability.
“President Bola Tinubu’s administration has added a further N65.9 trillion in just two years. To put that in perspective: it took Nigeria’s first 55 years of independence to accumulate N12 trillion in debt. The current administration has added more than five times that amount in 24 months,” it argued.
It recalled that Nigeria briefly became almost debt-free externally after the administration of former President Olusegun Obasanjo secured an $18 billion Paris Club debt relief package in 2005 and paid $12 billion to extinguish about $30 billion in external obligations.
This was four years ago when the people ignored APC propaganda against imọlẹ Adeleke.
Adeleke will crush APC now that the people have seen the difference between his light and the darkness of Tinubu evil party.
CharlesCNG: Adeleke won 2022 by only 28,344 votes—403,371 to 375,027. In 2026, watch the margins in these ten LGAs.
1. EDE NORTH — Adeleke's Margin Meter
2022: Adeleke +14,328
APC doesn't need to win. If Adeleke retains +14,000, his fortress holds. Cut it towards +10,000**, and APC has gained thousands statewide without winning the LGA.
2. IREWOLE — Oyebamiji's Home Test
2022: APC +3,982
Oyebamiji should improve APC's margin here. Merely repeating 2022 is respectable; approaching parity would be alarming for APC.
Virtually tied in 2022. A several-thousand-vote margin either way would signal a major western shift.
5. OSOGBO — Adeleke's Firewall
2022: Adeleke +7,449
APC needn't win. If Adeleke retains +7,000–8,000, his Central firewall holds. Cut it towards +3,000–4,000, and the statewide mathematics changes.
6. ODO-OTIN — The Oyinlola Test
2022: Adeleke +521
Almost a tie. With Oyinlola's current alignment, APC should be capable of flipping it if elite endorsements are truly transferable.
7. OBOKUN — The Wole Oke Test.
2022: Adeleke +3,848
If Adeleke retains his old margin, Wole Oke's defection may have generated more headlines than votes. If APC flips Obokun, Ijesaland may genuinely be moving.
8. ILESA WEST — The Ijesa Test
2022: Adeleke +2,992
With APC already strong elsewhere in Ijesaland, flipping Ilesa West could rapidly erase Adeleke's old regional advantage.
9. IFE CENTRAL — APC Must Win Bigger
2022: APC +4,348
APC already won here. The test is whether it expands that margin after the political realignments.
10. IFE NORTH — The Warning Light.
2022: Adeleke +395
If APC has truly consolidated Ifeland, this should flip. If Adeleke retains it, his personal vote may be surviving the defect HOW TO READ ELECTION NIGHT
Don't merely count LGAs. Watch margins.
If Adeleke remains dominant in Ede, holds Osogbo strongly and survives Obokun and Ife North, his coalition is holding.
If APC cuts Ede and Osogbo, flips places like Obokun and Odo-Otin, while expanding Irewole and Ife margins, Adeleke's 28,344-vote cushion can disappear quickly.
And if Salaam surges in Ejigbo, Iwo and the West, ask one question:
Whose votes is ADC taking?
Osun may be decided by 2,000 votes saved here, 3,000 gained there and strongholds becoming slightly less strong.
In a state decided by just 28,344 votes last time, margins—not the number of LGAs won—may tell the real story.
Willie2015: Adeleke has constructed roads across all 30 LGs in the states I was in Ilesa during the crowning of the Oba (Ilesa/Akure–Brewery–Palace dualisation is a good job That road has been poor for over 50 years ..
I passed thru Ife to see a friend in OAU... There is a lot of work going on that road... Esp Lagere Flyover and surrounding road works In fact.. that road has peen poor for over 30 years.....
It’s quite impressive that the governor has done so much in road construction but why should we limit government performance to just roads?
