If this is what you call vote buying then you need to get schooled again in politics 101.


If this is how your mother sold her vote that’s too bad .

The fact remains that come May 2023 papa wee wee won’t sit in Aso rock

Throwback:
It is stereotyping by the South.

Once a Northern politician is meeting with men who look poor and haggard and dressed like a Northerner, then you must be having a meeting with terrorists.

Meanwhile, if a Southern politician is having similar meeting with Southern masses, he must be a man of the people.

So this propaganda is being exploited by those who claim they want to be different and revolutionise the country. Meanwhile they are typical political prostitutes and opportunists, who will use all the known disgusting tactics that show them to be Pharisees.

Inasmuch as this Peter Obi movement is gaining momentum as we move closer to the general election, let us endeavor to verify before we post anything.

Propagander and lies will not win election come 2023.

If a British or Jamaican had smashed the record they would praise her for being a legend. But a Nigerian has done it and because they can't wrap their heads around the fact that something legendary can come out of Nigeria, they've brought out their empty pundit English to analyze emptiness. Don't just let Nigerians swear for you guys. This is one thing that has given the nation joy recently in the midst of all we're passing through so let us enjoy our girl in peace plix

Modified:
All of you people quoting me to say I'm playing the race card, I think you guys have self esteem issues. Has the world athletics organisation who organised the tournament come out to invalidate her record? So because a couple of British blokes spoke we should take it immediately as the truth because anything the British say becomes authority? Wake up and stop sucking up to the westerners! Stand and have some self worth. They won't be celebrating Amusan today if she was always playing second fiddle to her western opponents.

Onigawara:
As a South southerner, I've always despised Tinubu for rallying his people to vote against us in 2015. Yet, I preferred him to Atiku. I mean we all wanted power to return to the South. I didn't care if it returned to SW, provided it is still the south.
Meanwhile, how can Tinubu go ahead to select a Muslim as his running mate, when he is a Muslim? I just don't get it. Does he not really care about the unity of this country? Or perhaps he thinks Christians are minorities, hence we can be overlooked? Tinubu is a BASTARD! He should get the fûčk outta my face. Even if a gun is pointed to my head, I would gladly die than vote him and his useless abōki.
Any murthafucka would get my vote ahead of the fool.
If Tinubu supporters really think he made the best choice you guys are gonna be in for alot of surprise next year. You guys really underestimate us

tony0806:
Muslim - Muslim ticket! Any Nigerian supporting this simply doesn't love the unity of Nigerians. Prepare for more agitations from separatist if BAT "ever" wins the general elections in February 2023

CYBERSOLDIERSre:
mmu Christian supporting Tinubu will taste of the wine cup of the wrath of God.

They will all die miserably.

All those supporting impersonation of Christian bishops will dies shameful deaths.

jumas:
let the world know and let God judge.
Now you will understand what shettima did it to the chibok girls For us to hate Jonathan
Why will you use Christian community to deceive people.

This is the work of God to expose them.

Arise o lord and your enemies be scattered

Odin13:
Swore is an attention seeking ... you be the blame Buhari for incompetence and wan exonerate Osibanjo as Vice

Yet this fool is blaming Atiku for actions Obasanjo took..

Nigerians are aware of how Obasanjo looted that funds to settle .. ... even before the. He already had issues with Atiku .. and was running a one man show

This Yoruba fool should wake .. and stop misinformation and propaganda

Power to the people

So,
If anybody wants to fake someone now,, and started faking the Governor of Ondo State (or even a Commissioner in Ondo State),, You think the Government of Ondo State will keep calm??
(Being that, it would not be the first time people had been impersonating some other people)

BluntCrazeMan:
Aregbe carried his seat in public??

Tinubu will never survive the defeat that’s knocking on his door. 2023 presidential election will end Tinubu presidential bid. We are fully ready for him in the south west region of Nigeria not to talk of northern region of Nigeria.

Five Strategic Mistakes that Cost Gov. Gboyega Oyetola a Second Term in Office in Osun State – Rasheed Adebiyi

The much awaited governorship election in Osun State has come and gone. The results have since been announced. While the winners have kept rejoicing, the losers are already licking their wounds.

A lot of analysis has been flying around on social media on what could be responsible for a sitting governor perceived to be performing to have lost to a candidate he was contending with for the second time in four years.

While some people were of the opinion that the incumbent governor lost to the improved electoral process, others tied the PDP’s Adeleke’s win to peoples’ anger and the seemingly irreconcilable differences between Mr. Gboyega Oyetola and his predecessor in office, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola.However, the win and loss were a combination of different factors.

Here are some strategic mistakes made by the outgoing governor and his party, the APC, in the build up to the July 16th contest. Here are some outstanding issues that likely led to the governor’s failure to clinch a second term:

Lack of Strategic Connection with the people.
Mr. Adegboyega Oyetola committed a strategic error of not connecting with the people of the state. As a matter of fact, no democratically elected governor of the state had committed such an error before now.

For the entire period he has spent as governor until the election on Saturday, Governor Oyetola never deemed it fit to have a one-on-one with the people of Osun.

To be sure that this was a grave mistake, Chief Bisi Akande had Labe-Odan (Under the Odan Tree); his own successor, Governor Oyinlola put in place Gbagede Oro (Open Forum) while Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola had in place Ogbeni-Till-Daybreak; all were community mobilization and engagement fora to have a feel of what the people about the government and issues of governance.

The Positive Agenda Nigeria did a study to call the government attention to this lacuna. Even though, government people contended that fact with the organisation, that led to the establishment of the civic engagement unit and the introduction of Apero (literally translated as conference).

The first edition of the programme was held before the COVID 19 struck and we never heard of it again. So, the perception of the governor has not been any favourable even going into the election. People neither understood the governor nor his programmes. It was part of the reasons the people did not reward him with a second term.

Lack of governance thrust
For any discerning mind and governance-sensitive person in the state, the outgoing government does not have a clear map of where he intends to steer the ship of the state. His campaign focus then in 2018 was continuity.

From the time he was sworn in till he lost his second term ambition on Saturday, a large number of people did not understand the spirit, the focus and intention of his programmes.

There is no clear thrust of the government on education, economy, agriculture, security architecture even arts and culture. This has led to poor conception and execution of programmes. Mr. Governor failed to communicate the what, where, why and how of his programmes. He paid dearly with his second term bid.

Inability to reconcile the factions in his Party

A major factor that resulted in the loss of the Saturday election was the internal wrangling within the party. Those who could read between the lines warned of the dire consequences of a divided house especially as the election approached.

A reconciliation move ahead of the polls would have rallied the party members together and salvaged an impending defeat. It was a disaster waiting to happen. An insider even confided in me that they feared the internal disenchanted people more than they feared the opposition party.

A result of this was what we saw on Saturday. Words on the street on the election was that the Osun Progressive voted against the Ilerioluwa man.
Lacklustre campaign activities

The campaign activities of the APC was lacklustre. There was little or no vibes. There was no attempt to sell the candidates in a manner that would connect with the people. It was a campaign on the surface. No depth at all.

Adeleke Ademola was a familiar foe. There should have been a better way to tackle him rather than the attack on his dancing habit and lack of educational certificate. The party was not creative at all. There was no attempt to hype the achievements of Oyetola in a way that it will show how such address the perennial problems of the state.

The focus was on the personality of the PDP candidate. Unlike in 2014, when all kinds of campaign formats and appeals were used. It was a straight campaign jingle. Observations noted the lack of social listening to drive the campaign.

The campaign should have picked from public opinion and used such to counter the negative narratives already spread by the PDP on the street. The APC campaign council allowed the opposition party to hijack the narratives from it. It was a big error. They underestimated Adeleke, they paid dearly for it. For a familiar foe, Oyetola’s campaigns focused more at the weaknesses of their opposition instead of acclaiming the achievements of the governor and showing how such keyed into the progress of the people.


Our 10-week report indicated the campaign was dominated by personality attack at the expense of issue-based engagement with the people.

Low confidence in articulating the Administration’s Achievements
It was not as if Oyetola did not achieve at all in government. At least, as it is claimed, he was able to build roads, pay salaries as well as pension of retirees. The government also rehabilitated about 300 primary health care centres across the state and built the flyover at Olaiya in Osogbo, yet, people find it difficult to recall what he has done in office.

He should have done more to emphasize his achievement and connect it with the betterment of the lives of the people in Osun.
