₦airaland Forum

The meeting with the APC governors took place at the kebbi governor's lodge simply because kebbi governor is the current chairman of APC governors forum.

Any presidential aspirant who wish to meet with the APC governors will be given an audience. But giving u an audience to campaign does not necessarily mean endorsement.

Since when did BMO become Nigeria's DMO?

Direct or indirect primary, Buhari owns APC. Whoever he wants as the presidential candidate he gets by any means. If u are not happy, u decamp.

It's good he has apologized.

But has the church addressed the issue that led to him calling them goats?

90% of Mariupol is already destroyed by Russia while you guys continue with your devilish propaganda. I only pity Ukrainians that listen to your guys.

And yet Mariupol has not been captured by Russia.

Gov. Nyesom Wike of Rivers has called on the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to support his presidential ambition because he is the best man to wrestle power from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Wike stated this on Sunday in Makurdi when he visited Gov. Samuel Ortom of Benue.

Wike said that he was making his intention to contest the presidency known for the first time in Benue.

“To remove APC from power, I am the person who can tell them `enough is enough’.

“We must take this power and I am ready to take it for PDP and I know that God is with us that is why APC keeps failing every day.”

“I call on stakeholders to give me their mandate and not to sell their votes because I have the capacity to face this APC government,” Wike said.

The right question should be: Are Nigerians tired of APC misrule or nor?

Fake news!

Both of them were at the palace of Oluwo of Iwoland. Adeleke was greeting Oluwo.

DaddyFabooluz:
Sometimes when I read comments and people's analysis or ranting, I just laugh because it is very obvious so many people don't understand why Tinubu is one of the greatest and most strategic politician Nigeria has.

As smart as Tinubu is, he knows that going for the seat of president will mean the downfall of APC. All we see now is a well arranged strategy to cause distraction in all other political party and at the end, it will look as if Tinubu is disgraced not to win the APC presidential ticket but the main game play is that whoever wins that ticket is already what they have arranged down to make the masses vote for that person thinking Tinubu has been disgraced by that person.

Mark this post from Today till the right time and see how everything plays out. Everybody will latedr see how powerful and smart Tinubu is.

Party chairman is zoned to the North while Presidency to the South.

Who can match Jagaban in south ?

It's not about who can match jagaban. The events of the past few days have shown that Buhari will unilaterally handpick APC candidate as a consensus candidate.

So even if ur jagaban is more powerful than Jesus, if he is not Buhari's consensus candidate, he cannot get APC ticket. I can't say if he joins another party though.

Parachoko:
Don't be fooled by all this

He was giving an offer he could not refuse.

Mention the offer.

omokab:
which game is over? Many of you don't understand politics you are only good at coming to nairaland and make hate comment . if the presidential ticket is zone to south west APC and the people should nominate a consensus candidate , pls tell me who can defeat Tinubu in the south west politics. Osinbajo won't even come out to contest not to talk of Fayemi. May is their primary election ,have seen any action from them to be president ?

Stop disturbing itself. APC is a national party, and it cannot micro-zone it's Presidential ticket to SW or SE. It can only zone it to the south and Buhari alone will pick the consensus candidate.

So where are the nairaland children who said Buhari did not endorse Adamu?

By Luminous Jannamike, Abuja

Northern elder statesman, Dr. Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, has predicted that a vast majority of former members of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is likely to take control of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) after its elective national convention on March 26, 2022.

The outspoken Arewa leader also predicted that as the 2023 general elections draw nearer, many disgruntled PDP and APC bigwigs will move to smaller political parties to take them over in order to realise their personal ambitions.

He stated these in a series of posts on his Twitter handle on Tuesday, adding that the wholesale rejection of politicians who have made the rounds of the dominant parties in 2023 was the only way the nation can make progress.

Baba-Ahmed said, “By the time APC concludes the selection of its new leaders in a few days, you are likely to see the vast majority of former PDP members in control of APC. PDP’s new leaders will also have a heavy presence of former APC stalwarts in charge of its future. Do the math. What will be new?

“There will be many former PDP/APC big wigs in charge of smaller parties as well. People who see parties only as election platforms are unlikely to move to small parties just to make up the numbers. They will move there to take over and realize personal ambitions. What will change?”

Asked by a follower what the way forward was for the nation, he said: “A wholesale rejection of politicians who have made the rounds of the dominant parties, treating them only as casually-interchangeable platforms, offering the same thing: leadership that benefits leaders.”

Reacting to the call for more experienced leaders to continue to dominate in the game of politics in the country, the former Federal Permanent Secretary said, unless Nigerians broke with a past these politicians want to preserve, it would be difficult to rebuild the nation on stronger foundations.

“Whose game, theirs? There was a time when they were not in the game. Not all experience is good for good governance. Unless Nigerians break with a past these politicians want to preserve, it will be difficult to rebuild it on stronger foundations,” he stressed.

While condemning the recent attack on the country home of the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Prof. George Obiozor, he described the violence as a threat to all because it could spread easily without boundaries, if not contained.

I still don't understand why this indomie generation would think that the president of the most populous black nation on earth will not be interested in who succeeds him. A whole tyrant Buhari? Does it even make any sense?

SmartProf:
Buhari like Pontius Pilate has washed his hands off cos the party has more crisis in it than success stories. The next chairman of APC will be decided by raffle draw.

No president will ever surrender the control of his party. Take this news with a pinch of salt.

So what is the name of the presidential aid that spoke with this reporter? Or He/she doesn't have name?

Putin's biggest mistake is invading Ukraine. Even if he captured the whole of Ukraine, the sanctions will still remain in place.

seunmsg:
The judgement will be appealed and the lawmakers will maintain their seats till the end of their tenure.

But this is enough to distract them till the end of their tenure. Next time, they will think before defecting.

luizpippo:
Do you need lectures on how Tinubu moved his support to GEJ and only Aregbe refused ditching Ribadu?

Tinubu was a leader of a national party ACN and his party participated in the 2011 presidential election with Ribadu as the candidate. Your claim that Tinubu betrayed his own party and worked for an opposition in the said election only existed in the realm of speculation. I put it to u that Tinubu campaigned and worked for his party in the election.

Saying that Tinubu did anti- party and worked against his own party is an insult to Tinubu's democratic credentials.

luizpippo:
Tinubu supported GEJ in 2011 bros

Tinubu's ACN candidate in 2011 was Nuhu Ribadu. He won in osun state.

ArewaNorth:
These analysts who always bring issues of Presidency and CPC must be very ashamed of their unfruitful guessings.
Finally, after all sort of conspiracies Buhari has endorsed fomer PDP member, Abdullahi Adamu who was never predicted by any media house or analyst to be endorsed by PMB and he even rejected the only CPC former Governor Tanko Almakura.
So we should judge current affairs by our mighty brain rather than following these amateur analysts.
Where are those suspecting Badaru, Bagudu, Buni and Rufai of ganging up against Tinubu?
Today, Bagudu and Badaru are left in confusion with limited choice while Rufai is left alone gasping and battling for his survival in APC. Buni is known as strong ally of Tinubu who started avoiding him since becoming party caretsker Chairman to avoid compromise. Fayemi was played by El Rufai, Bagudu and Badaru.
The Buhari I very well know won't support any candidate before primary election directly or indirectly. He who work to win primary election under APC will definitely get his full support because PMB won't afford to simply let PDP come back to power again.
Those in Presidency are entitled to their opinions but won't change PMB's opinion especially a this moment when he understood that all of them have personal goals not party goals

Its not possible in Nigeria for an outgoing incumbent not to have an an anointed successor. Go and check the governors, not to talk of a tyrant president.

Buhari even said he would not reveal his anointed successor yet so he won't be assassinated. This means he has one.

luizpippo:
Now it is Buhari that could not win in 3 previous elections until Tinubu and co came to his rescue, that people rode on his popularity?

How many governors won elections in 2003, 2007 and 2011 on Buhari's popularity?

Even Tinubu could not help anybody become a president in 4 previous elections until Buhari showed up.

Tinubu supported Olu Falae in 1999, Olu Falae failed.
Tinubu supported ATIKU in 2007, ATIKU failed.
Tinubu supported Ribadu in 2011, Ribadu failed.

Until Buhari came to his aid in 2015.

FreeStuffsNG:
Some will argue that you mean revolt against Mr Malami, SAN and not against PMB
Incidentally, the bulk of votes at convention will come from this same Governors and not Mr Malami. I think PMB should henceforth deal with the governors directly.

Regardless of all these developments, it will still end in praise to God for the victory of Asiwaju Tinubu come 2023 Presidential polls. Please support Asiwaju Tinubu. .

Don't be deceived. All the governors combined are not up to Buhari shoes. In Nigeria's type of democracy, there is no way u can defeat an incumbent President in the national convention of his own party. The worst thing that would happen is that the there will be impositions on that day and those angry governors will decamp. It happened to PDP in 2013.

But thinking that some disgruntled governors will team up and defeat a tyrant Buhari in the national convention of his own party is a joke taken too far.

Dsalvo:
You're always sentimental in your talk. Who win elections for Parties if not primarily Governors.

Of what electoral value is Malami, Emefiele, Amaechi and others seen as Buhari's inner crew?

Equity is very important in Nigerian politics so don't start the usual Igbo thing of offending others to then be playing victim.

Buhari is not the victim here. He wants to callously destroy structures, platforms and people he used to get where he is today.

Use a bridge to cross a river and decide to blow up the bridge and deny others of it's use.

Why should those affected just sit back and let him have his ignoble ways? One good turn no longer deserves another?

People like you should really think what you are saying merely because of tribalistic hatred for BAT and Yorubas.

Without the powerful federal might most of the governors cannot win councillorship elections. Needless to remind you how Oyetola, Uzodinma,etc became governors!

Nigerialabalaba:
abi his own 'medical vacation' don start. shiorr.
PMB don cast him and Buni.

Till now and 26 March, na Buni u go dey see but na Sani dey in charge.

Self-consolation

Who is the chairman of APC? Is Buni or Bello. I'm confused

It seems APC is destined for destruction. A week to an important national convention, rather than putting their house in order, they are courting controversy. The sack of the secretary will definitely throw up serious litigation that might invalidate the outcome of the convention.

Where is Akeredolu?

Sufferingboy:
The greedy man who did nothing for Delta north.I pity his Ukwuani people he couldn't do anything developmental project for.


Anyway � Ika people must produce the next senator of Delta north.Ukwuani people should fight to get the deputy governor post.
