ADC should come and tell us what they will do differently.....are they bringing back subsidy,are they going to stop the naira floating and start creating artificial value,are they stopping nelfund,are they stopping state police?
That's what we should be hearing from then and not all these unintelligent rants.

Bolaji abdulahi was minister of sports,what did he achieve,did our league improve under him,the Abuja stadium was in ruins,sports development was at its lowest,he couldn't even build and manage 1 single academy.
Honestly,
Sentiments and populism apart.
I have been asking the same question.
1.WILL THEY REVERSE SUBSIDY REMOVAL?


2.WILL THEY START DEFENDING NAIRA AGAIN?


3.WILL THEY REVERSE THE TAX LAW?


4.WILL THEY STOP LAGOS-CALABAR AND LAGOS-SOKOTO SUPER HIGHWAY?

5.WILL THEY STOP STUDENT LOAN?

6.WILL THEY APPEAL AGAINST LG AUTONOMY

TINUBU REMAINED THE MOST BLUNT NIGERIAN PRESIDENT.HE DOESNT SOUND POPULISTIC!


These are question seun okinbaloye and Oseni rufai shoul be asking them so that Nigerians can make rational decision BUT THEY WILL NEVER for obvious reasons

This news is just too much for him to handle . First, it was Gawuna and now kwankwaso. No be double wahala for APC be dis??

ADC is the peoples party and by grace of Almighty Allah, we will unseat tinubu in 2027.
Tinubu has handled several greater political upset throughout is political journey that culminated to his presidency.

Worry about the fact that ADC only attract losers while APC is packing the winners.

By this time in 2014 ,APC has already packed almost half of PDP governors.Who will sponsor ADC campaign?,may be if seyi makinde join sha

Lanre1st:
I'm still wondering if Tinubu is actually doing this to El-rufai, it's too much for the person of Elrufai support for his success.

The interview at Chatham House 8n US, where Elrufai, Fagbemi, Edun were discussing how Tinubu administration is going to be. Even Tinubu himself has little to say on that day. Fast forward to today, Fagbemi, Edun are rewarded with Minister in Tinubu administration which Elrufai are rewarded with Prison. While bulk of vote that make Tinubu to win came from North.

Another mistake Northern can do is to support another southerner in 2027 election, it better they feed in Northerner to win or lose and allow Tinubu to use 8yrs and power shift to North naturally. Else, Elrufai experience will be a child play to what their support to another southerner will be. Nigeria is too divided with tribe and region
All I see here is just an emotional blackmailong of the president.

Did el rufai agreed to tapping NSA conversation or nothuh?

We nigerians shoupd be for once approach issues with logic and objectivity

Babangida denied Buhari the opportunity to bury his mother and Buhari carried that hatred for Babangida to his grave.
Tinubu is truly a different moslem. Asiwaju even sent a message of condolence and approved a condolence visit from the APC National Chairman. That's class you will never find among the born to hate crew and their packaged Messiah

They can only survive 2027 election at most because the grand convener, Tinubu still has ambition to pursue.
So GAWUNA equals to all Northernershuh?

You people think so low of the North,you see them as just one homogenous group of zombies who just follow whatever ATIKU/KWANKWASO/WL RUFAI ask them to do
No any other interests.

From my observation of voting patterns simce 1999,after SW,the North are the most liberal and unpredictable voters,but most people dont know

When I nicked named him "Political Manique" sometime ago people don't believe me. He is worst than political mascot and that is that is good for him, pesin wey nor dey hear word na so e dey be for him.

We told him Tinubu is not like our brother Gej, we told him Tinubu is the most experienced politician in Nigeria today, yet Mr Mascot Obi nor listened.

We told him we can't never have 2 Southern president within a time frame of 8 years, e nor listen.

We told him the North who are majority Muslims can not remove their fellow Allah akbar Tinbu/Shetima and say na Jesus is the lord they will vote for? yet ths eze ndi efu nor listen.

We told him the North and SW will never vote for him cus they know he is a land grabber expansionist and anybody who want to rule this country that failed in those two region is a joker, yet this Mr Mascot nor listen.

The list is so long I can't say it all but e go hear word by force soon.
SW can actually vote for an Ibo person at the right time.Not now their own son is the presido.It doesnt make any sense!
As for the North...I am not sure.
The route to presidency for an Ibo person will not be through the Core North.it will be through the same route GEJ took in 2011.SW+SE+SS+NC!
Core not North will never vote Igbo but SW can.
Unfortunately,they dont know this.They should try and court SW than however they will court the North.SW is more liberal than the rigid core North!

What did El-rufai get in return? Humiliation and illegal detention. Una even dey call am a bandit sef.
No worry, payback is a "bishh".
This is just an emotional blackmail,gaslighting of the highest order. So because he followed bulaba to chattam house he shouldnt be prosecuted for wrong doing under Nigerian law.

Obi’s transition from serious contender to Mascot, by Azu Ishiekwene

Friends, admirers, and the “Obidient” fanbase of the former Labour Party, LP, presidential candidate, Peter Gregory Obi, love to call him by the sobriquet “Okwute,” which in Igbo, Nigeria’s third-largest socio-linguistic group, means rock, boulder, or stone. Quite a nice alias – especially if you associate some doctrinal nuances of Obi’s faith with his first name, Peter.

The symbolism of the name Okwute, borne by males, signifies one who is strong, dependable and unyielding in Igbo cosmology. But a nice alias is not necessarily a fitting one.

The fluidity with which Obi moves around the political circuits has little, if any, resemblance to a rock, boulder or even a stone. Except, of course, if he’s a rolling stone, lacking in constancy, bereft of moss. A rock or a boulder is solid, come rain, come shine; it is constant in and out of season.


I’m not suggesting that Okwute should have remained in Onitsha or Aba. That would be absolutely ludicrous! After all, life is a journey.

Peter the Clay
I’m saying that this Obi is a Peter of Clay – malleable, confused, and lacking in staying power. He’s drifting, mistaking a jungle for a zoo. This should be a great source of worry for his troops, especially the social media-based avatars (without voter cards), who deify Obi and whose political signature tune is “the Obi-way or the highway.” His political history needs no retelling other than to record what a missed opportunity it represents.



After the tale of him winning the 2023 presidential poll – an election in which he punched above his political weight and won in 12 states – even if only with narrow margins outside his South-Eastern enclave, Okwute fragmented like sedimentary rock thereafter. It would have been sufficient for him to build on his good showing at the poll, but claiming he won an election in which his party had no agents in about 54 percent of the polling centres was a stretch.

A Yiaga Africa Report on the 2023 elections said that while the APC deployed agents in 96 percent of polling units, the Labour Party deployed agents in only 46 per cent. Agent deployment is a critical factor in election performance.

Failed romance
The man who became the de facto and adopted candidate of the Nigeria Labour Congress and sundry trade unions – a substantial voting bloc, failed to seize the initiative after the poll. He went on throwing tantrums, wasting energy and resources in litigation, and missed the opportunity to consolidate and build the structure of the Labour Party – a convenient vehicle he had appropriated overnight, barely three days before the presidential primaries of his previous Peoples Democratic Party in May 2022.

Justice Ayo Isa Salami, a retired president of the Appeal Court and an eminent jurist, has criticised Obi’s midnight migration to LP as an illegality that would have excluded him from the presidential contest. Salami said Obi’s participation was the result of poor judicial diligence and perhaps a lack of experience on the bench.

Okwute’s jump also stirred speculations and gave credence to the claim that he was deliberately avoiding primaries in the PDP.

Missed opportunity
Yet his near-spontaneous entry into the LP created a political wave that came at high tide. Not only was it dynamic, but it was the stuff of legend. Sustaining it beyond the elections would have made a great difference because LP very much needed nurturing, growth and strategy. But Obi was not paying attention, focusing instead on the next election rather than rebuilding the party.


LP adapted to Obi rather than the other way around. It even accommodated Okwute’s capitalist credentials into its semi-socialist fold. Nothing really mattered so long as LP had a presidential candidate – an ‘Okwute’ in the race.

Without as basic a requirement as agents to represent it at the polling units, LP went into the general elections and performed barely short of a miracle, winning one governorship, six senatorial and 34 House of Reps seats in one go. It was a foundation on which any serious politician would have built an inspiring career.

But the momentum was left to waste, casting him in the light in which his former adversary-turned-friend, Governor Nasir el-Rufai, described: a Nollywood actor. Okwute watched the slow but sure unravelling of the LP, as it collapsed from factional crisis.

Rather than being the elder in the house and leading the LP to consolidate on its initial achievements, he bolted. He has now pitched his tent with the African Democratic Congress, ADC, an assortment of mostly aggrieved power-mongers
.

The game in town
Yet, even in this temporary shelter, the only game is who takes the presidential ticket. While the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, is preparing as if elections were tomorrow, collecting defectors, aggressively registering new members, and even testing its election situation room (all this despite its poor record in office), the opposition is missing in action. The opposition’s strategy appears to be to sufficiently discredit the process before elections to hide its own catastrophic incompetence.


Whether Okwute sees it or not, he has expended his store of political goodwill without reinvesting or making good capital of it. The man who won Lagos, the impregnable home of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and the Federal Capital, catchment area for the government in power, has by word and deed, proved that it was a fluke – an emotional response from the young and aggrieved and a bloc of Christian voters thirsty for change.

That Kano visit
On Sunday, Okwute visited Kano on a Sallah homage to Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP. In 2023, an expected alliance between Okwute and Kwankwaso failed because Kwankwaso, with a wider political footprint but no less ambitious, would not be Obi’s vice presidential candidate.

Kwankwaso had said offering Obi the vice presidential slot under him was a “golden opportunity,” implying that Obi would be lucky to join his ticket rather than the other way around. For good measure, Kwankwaso said age, experience, and performance disqualified Obi from the presidency, hinting that the NNPP would collapse if he accepted a subordinate role to Obi.

With Obi now in ADC and Kwankwaso still nursing the remnants of his NNPP, it is a good time to ask who is gravitating toward whom. The ambitions of both men are well known, and the ADC’s presidential ticket is nearly foreclosed.

Obidients won’t accept anything less than an Okwute presidential ticket. Kwankwaso’s impressive crowd, more on the streets with their red caps than behind touchscreens, is no less vociferous. They won’t hesitate to tell Obidients that RMK is bigger politically, older, and a PhD holder with far superior performance as governor.

And the Kano crowd – especially at Sallah – was, as usual, huge and dramatic. They received the guest as they would a mascot. In Kano, every player thinks they have the crowd until they see a bigger one.

Obi has paid the price for a ticket to the zoo, but he’ll soon find that he’s in a jungle.

In simple terms:
A Chief Medical Director is the top doctor in charge of clinical decisions and medical quality in an organization.
