I dont know how true this is. I doubt it. The whole writeup looks disjointed, incohorent and disordered. ( Just confirmed the text was initially in hausa, the google translation made it look that way)

And with Many photoshop and fake stories flying around these days. I don't know.

But if it is. Bashir Ahmed just experienced his first political hurdle. Politics is like a game of chess. You read your game well, take your time to calculate but never make your move too early without backup.

Him contesting for the house of rep. in the primary was too soon. He made is move very early without concrete political backings. Ofcourse he lost, but the political gladiators arent done with him. Looks like he stepped on someone toes, and that person is pulling alot of strings to bring him down.

Politics is a very dirty game, even guys with solid backup and history still always get played. Bashir made a very bold move against all odds, he should have been prepared for its consequences. This is no time to drag the issue further. He should go down on his knees and make atonement for his sins.

It is nothing personal. This is just classic politics. He should ask Tinubu who only managed to survived thanks to reward of years of alliances,friendship and courage even when the going get rough.

Ask Peter Obi why he ran away from PDP.

Ask Wike , Ask Ambode, ask around. This is politics.

Common sense should have let you know that he typed in Hausa and what is here is Facebook English translation.

kingthreat:
Stop being a dullard. The Adelekes are loyal to the party that brought them to power. Not one man of zero political influence that talks with a feminine voice.

You need not remind him. It will do them like a film. Adeleke has repeatedly made it known that he will work tirelessly for Atiku's victory and not just that, he also promised to support support the PDP gubernatorial candidate in Lagos in anyway possible.

festacman:
They look excited.

Where is Davido?

Read again. Osun first family.

What do you expect from the NANS president who happens be come from the north where they smile while suffering.

sureboykris:
Shocked. I love this guy cause of the way he speaks. But if this is true, then there's no hope for this country
I don't know why it's so difficult for people to use available funds to serve the people. Must we steal everything?

This is Ikpeazu's handiwork.

Kizzygentle:
How it should be.. U can't be dragging opinions with your head coach becuase u are "ONANA".. That's how he was also suspended when he was in aajax too due to one issue like that...

He suspension in Ajax was as a result of taking a medication that hitherto been banned in sport.

First check being posted by on Aminu. If you want to know who hypocrites are look no further. Northern Muslims are the true definition of hypocrites. What didn't they call MAMA PEACE but they can't receive little dose of what they dish to others. You see them shamefully defending Aisha

dedonfranco:
Best Governor in Nigeria has spoken.

Best governor are you kidding me? Ask anybody in Borno state what is two billion.

bonnyhope:
Jandor is not even getting Pdp national support

Pdp no longer care about Lagos
They know is for BAT

Say who? If the G-5 governor's are who you refer to as national I am not surprised but Jandor is in the good books of the national. Just two days ago, governor Adeleke promised to give him all the required support unlike emperor Wike who endorsed the Sanwolu and told Jandor to go and jam door

Opinedecandid:
Vendetta.
That someone did not resign before contesting should not invalidate the process If the unresigned contestant had won the primary, that's when you would have nullified the primaries and disqualified the contestant from further participation.
That an aspirant did not resign before contesting should not inlnvalidate the process.

Sometimes, I am left with no doubt that our judiciary is the number one problem of this country.

dedonfranco:
Atiku leadership is questionable.

Hear talk about. How does this concern Atiku

The way this man speaks most time makes me ask myself if people like him believe power is transient.

valentineuwakwe:
The oyo state governor as well as ayo fayose are the leaders of the PDP in the south west!

If you know who a leader is as it relates to political hierarchy, you won't write what you wrote. Ademola Adeleke is a governor and a senator at a point in time. In his right, Senator Ademola Adeleke is more high ranking than those you mentioned. I need not remind you that Fayose vehemently rejected Makinde as the south west leader of PDP.

Rtk5:
Hon. Yusuf Gagdi representing Pankshin, Kanke and Kanam in the house of reps and Hon. Baba Hassan representing Jos North North federal constituency in the house of reps were seen campaignjng on a bike yesterday in Jos, Plateau state.

Nigerians we must be wise this time around.

Op you are a confutionist. How is Jos north north a federal constituency. You better correct this nonsense.

May the good Lord see him through.

WATCHOVER:
Dankwanbo has always been a betrayal right from 2015 general election ask Jonathan

Laughable indeed. He wasn't a betrayal when he supported him with delegates from his but now a betrayal when he choose to tow the right part.

Atiku Abubakar (GCON) GCFR
Ifeanyi Okowa (CON) GCON
come 2023 by God's grace

kingmaster2009:
Babahir Lawal was the one that had corruption. allegation leveled against him in the first tenure of the Buhari Administration...he is so pained. that Tinubu didn't pick him...

He is a bad representation of what a Christian stands for...how many of the northern Christians in the countryside have jettisoned their religion just because some Muslim cleric came to them and give them 50k each .....If you doubt me, ask someone you know who was bred and brought up and still living in Kaduna, Benue, Nassara, plateau .....

If someone can jettsion his religion just because of 50k...it is easy for the momeybag politician to buy those people over for morsel of porridge

Lawal...Oni kuure

Not only 50k na 50 shillings. Tinubu in the name of not regarding Christians scored an own goal with his Kanuri VP Shettima. Who rates Kanuri in the north. Instead of going for a Hausa/Fulani if he truly understands politics as you people want us to believe. A kanuri man that won't allow a Hausa/Fulani lead him in prayers or is it the kanuri that are make up 90% of boko haram. The election is between Atiku and Obi. Fortunately, Atiku is going to carry the day.

PDPGuy:
They may have cut a deal with Atiku where Atiku would carry Adamawa, while APC wins the governorship election.

It will Atiku's undoing to try such.

Afamed:
We never plan to win Adamawa and Taraba at the presidential level, the plan is to reduce Atiku votes to the lowest level in Adamawa.

To the lowest level Stop kidding yourself. Ribadu is an in-law to Atiku and Binani sees Atiku as a big uncle. Forget it, non of them is going to work against Atiku

Afamed:
Atiku is coming to Jidda today. You are right. You know he does not often go home because of lack of social amenities in his home town

A serial customer/ loser should often visit home

Where is Jidda asking for a friend.

Bastardlyrich:
Keep deceiving your self,I hope you know kwara and kogi are middle belt and I hope you know what middle belt means.
Some part of kogi fall into west,some east and some north.
So kogi east that are close to igbos we leave their brother obi and join kogi West to vote a drug dealer and theiff.
Or in kwara that fulanis have sieze and made afonjas their slavves we leave their master atiku and vote a kriminal and theiff.
Let's watch and see

So Obi is now brother to Kogi east but fought tooth and nail with Kogi government under Capt. Idris Wada for the crude oil discovered in Ibaji.

treesun:
Wike and Ayade out of the picture!

The headline is misleading. Moreover, Ayade is an APC governor

I was ashamed watching him saying such nonsense on TVC news earlier in the evening.

LegendHero:
Lol, this man is a clown.

Jagaban won’t look for you because no one should have a friend like you. You are not the spokesperson for the Christians in the North so I don’t get how you hype yourself.

The first major post you got in life which is the Secretary to the government, it was Asiwaju and his men that helped you secure it and you acknowledged him openly for that.

If you’re truly fighting for Christians, why did you fail to vote Osinbajo at the primaries?

Read what you wrote again Iranu So Osibanjo to you was a Christian candidate. What happened to the other Christians in the race for APC ticket. His opposition to Agbado is the same faith ticket and not Agbado as a Muslim you urchin.

Patriotsleague:
Why does Obi love contravening laws and regulations, first he started collecting funds illegally for his campaign, when it has been said open source and international payment will not be used, to discourage cabals and billionaires with terrorists ties to hijack our state, secondly he supports ipob, a proscribed terrorists group, now he is carrying a plane about, placing logo on it, without licensing and meeting regulation guidelines. Peter Obi's Presidency will turn Nigeria into a state run by outlaws, his love for Ipob terrorists is a clear signal. Obi will take us down anarchy lane, like never before seen.

You ain't okay. What stupid law. So all branded campaign vehicles in Nigeria are licensed also by regulatory agencies abi. Mind you I am Atikulated but you sound stupid

Moh247:
They won Ekiti came close second to PDP in Osun after PDP over voted

We have heard you INEC chairman. Go and overturn the will of the people. Don't worry come 2023, you will also come close. Atiku is your next president

What APC can't do doesn't exist.

Agbegbaorogboye:
I don't know where you get these tales from but a lot of what you write are very far from reality.

1. Tinubu was not at loggerheads with the five other governors of AD. Instead, he was at loggerheads with the leadership of AD then. I think you should know the difference between the two. Till today, Tinubu, Osoba and Akande remain very strong and committed friends and there has never been anytime they disagreed politically or otherwise. If you know of such, pls share. So it is absurd to think Tinubu knew of plans to oust them from office and kept it to himself so he can become the lone governor left on the platform. If memory serves me right, the crux of Tinubu's disagreement with Afenifere( the political group that birthed AD then) was that their relationship with OBJ needed to be streamlined, which they felt otherwise about. It had nothing to do with wanting to be the man in charge. I am not a Tinubu fan but I don't think it is right for history to be twisted to paint him as a betrayer or backstabber to people he keeps close friendship with till this day. I don't remember him ever saying he wants to be leader of AD and for your info, AD does not operate like other parties. The chairman is the leader of the party according to the party constitution and not a governor. And your assumed act( though false) of Tinubu does not amount to being a spoiler. Go and read and understand what it means to be a spoiler. A spoiler usually has nothing to gain from playing the role. It's like in football if a team who are already out of a competition play against another team who need a win to progress and beat them. That team will be termed a spoiler since they are already out and they still stopped someone with a chance from making it.

2. If you say serial winners or losers have abnormalities along the way, may I ask what class Buhari falls into? Is he a serial winner or loser? Is two term presidency, is it an "abnormality" or a norm for him considering that overall, he has 3 losses and 2 victories which makes him a -1 loser on aggregate if we go with your logic?
Atiku never traded his governorship for VP slot. He was nominated by OBJ singlehandedly. He never lobbied for it. As a matter of fact, just like Tinubu, the powerbrokers in PDP were expecting OBJ to pick a VP from NW. Aliyu Gusau was the leading name on the list before OBJ opted for Atiku, probably due to the financial assistance he rendered him when he just came out of jail. I wonder if you are presented with a promotion from an office you occupy, you will reject it. Also, it is another lie to claim Atiku was a kingmaker in the North pre-1999. I challenge you to mention who he installed as king anywhere in the North. Pre-1999, the military establishment were firmly in control of the politics of the North led by IBB. They were the ones who decided to cede the Presidency West and also nominated OBJ for presidency. Atiku had nothing to do with that. So these your wild claims of him being a big man in the North who out of greed went for VP instead of governorship he won sounds more like warm bile. Again, you forget that Tinubu wanted to be VP to Atiku in 2007, also wanted to be VP to Buhari in 2015. Was he also strategically poor to have wanted that office too? How many govs, sitting and retired will be offered VP slot and will say No?!!

3. It is a testament to your poor grasp of politics that you think Atiku should have chosen a VP from SW where his party as at 2019 had no sitting governor and ignore SS/SE where his party had 8 out of 11 governors. Would you really do that if you were in his shoes? How does that even begin to make sense? Like really!! This is coupled with the fact that Atiku actually won the South and won massively. His undoing was his margin of loss in the North. If he had won just one of the 3 regions in the North, you will have an Atiku presidency as we speak. Quote me anywhere.

4. It is funny you call Atiku a looter while you defend Wike who has been donating and dashing money around without any known stream of income out of politics, or Tinubu who actually is easily the most corrupt governor and politician who has milked a state the longest since 1999. Atiku has a long line of businesses he can point to whether obtained through corrupt means or not. Can Tinubu match him in that regard? Wike is a nobody in that aspect anyway. It is also funny you want to mention "real" businessmen and you start with Otudeko who was just recently accused by the CBN of looting First Bank to stupor as majority shareholder and whose shares had to be forcefully confiscated. Dude!!

5. I think you need to brush up your knowledge of politics. You are laden with too much emotional outbursts against Atiku I wonder if you have suffered any personal injury against him. You should observe as your moniker implies and learn lessons from their actions and characters like reading a novel and not get yourself emotionally invested in those who don't care about you up to the level of insulting and denigrating people who are actually friends with them unsolicited on their behalf.

You should have even asked him who Atiku would have nominated from the south west as his running mate. Some people are just gullible and not willing to go and research things for themselves. Thank you for schooling him.
