I'm not surprised, President Shehu Shagari was an ordinary grade 2 teacher when he defeated Chief Obafemi Awolowo, a Lawyer, an alumnus of University of London, and London School Economics and Political Science.
Buhari's highest Certificate was an attestation from the Emir of Daura, while Atiku has a "Diploma in Law", from no Institution. So no be today.

adamkkk:
who regional profile help... that's Y u people keeping pushing incompetence on us.


I am a Southerner from Delta State nd i based in Abuja, bt i would rather have a fulani man in fct than Wike, if the Fulani man can produce results instead of stealing lands and inflating road project costs by 3 just to embezzle

What's this one saying, how old are you, for how long have you been in Abuja, and how well do you understand Nigeria?

This list is not correct/complete. Where is Major-General Mamman Kontagora. He was the FCT Minister in 1999, when I wrote my SSCE in GSS, Jiwa. He visited the school during the period. So I can't forget his name. The most popular FCT Ministers on my list are: Jeremiah Oseni, Major-General Mamman Kontagora, Nasir El Rufai and Nyonsome Wike, in no particular order.

AMINDA:
Lol. Does he? In 2023, one of those was alleged by Agbadorians themselves to be Sanwo-olu. They claimed he funded Atiku through his mistress, who is currently being hounded. In 2027, those people are going to come from very unlikely quarters, but he has it coming. Do you still wonder why he appears to be so paranoid and would rather no other candidate contests against him? He does not trust even his shadow despite the decamping of the 36 state governors.

This is what you wish, not necessarily what will happen. Tinubu is ahead of the combination of Atiku and El Rufai.

Immatex:
Police can play Wike’s script as much as they want but they can’t do anything to that Army officer.

There’s nothing the entire NPF can do.

There highly illiterate officers on road block can only show their low live videos.

Na today wey them Dey see covered number plate for the first time.

The unfounded hatred some of you have for Wike is already affecting your sense of logical reasoning.

Obi didn't envisage the kind of politics that awaits him after left office, neither did Wike nor the other 2 men.

Vanguard is becoming notorious for fake and sensational news. They're competing with Sahara reporters in the mud.

ufotunang:
.. PDP has already zoned their presidential ticket to the south ..so does not favour Atiku and he will not return

Like AMINDA speak, please.

From PDP to SDP to ADC back to PDP...

APC can't do any yeye convention for now. Most party conventions throw up issues that usually cause implosions.

AMINDA:
Whatever decisions taken at this convention will be legally binding. The supreme Court has already ruled that courts have no jurisdiction over the internal affairs of a political party. I expect Wike to be expelled after the convention.

In this case whenever Wike and his team hold their own convention, it will also be legally binding as well, since court doesn't have jurisdiction over internal issues of political parties 🙄

I don't mind the policy that's making rice cheap, local farmers had their opportunities, they misused it, they allowed greed and wickedness to override their sense of patriotism.
Imported rice is now in every market to the chagrin of the local farmers and rice traders.

AMINDA:
That was very unnecessary from Tuggar. No need to be on the defensive even before the interview is aired. The inexperience continue to manifest. Nigerian politicians are not used to media scrutiny and drilling. They see it as an attack. The downsides of having a compromised and captured media in-country.

I think I'll be agreeing with you perhaps, for the first time, Tuggar should have waited for the interview to be aired. The anxiety was needless, however he's eager to "show working", because he thinks he "delivered" in the interview.

Richtaiwo:
Even if he actually gave the SUV, which law did he violate?

Though, that will still be of no consequence to his political ambition.

He probably would have violated the law of decency and commonsense, because that would have sent a signal to some people to be defiant or confrontational and they will be rewarded.

E fun awon mejeji lorun pa! We didn't send them...

bomber in 2025 in Pakistan 🇵🇰, God when Muslims ☪️ embrace peace?

That's the fact, they will only "condemn the attack in strong terms and warned America to respect the sovereignty of Nigeria and human dignity of Nigerians"... or what do you think they will do, attack US on our behalf?

Penguin2:
But I thought our Nairaland Diplomats swore Tinubu was going to meet Trump during the G20 in South Africa?🤔

Tinubu will be smoked out of Aso Rock. I told y’all.

You see how France has been quiet.

You see how UK has been quiet.

Russia said they are observing. As if they weren’t observing when Israel pummeled Iran.

Wasn’t Russia observing when Assad of Syria was dislodged and they had to evacuate him with helicopter. This is somebody they defended and assisted for years.

China is somewhere making distant hisses.

Somehow, our Nairaland Diplomats think all those shenanigans will move Trump and America.

I like as una dey tickle unaself sha.

Lolss, Tinubu will be smoked out of Aso Rock and Trump will install Obi, right?
Igbos ipobs and their illogical reasonings.

Nwaikpe:
Bros, if you like swear them in, if you like currse them in,

Trump still dey come.

Trump is definitely coming to bomb all criminals who unalive Christians, not just the terrorist in Northern Nigeria, Ipobs hideouts will in Imo, Anambra and Abia States will also be bombed 💣 too.

obi4eze:
We can't wait. Enough is enough. Terrorism must be wiped out by fire by force.

These terrorists will also include those who enforce Monday sit at home in the South East, and their enablers who support them online.

Fulani people put a Yoruba man's government in disarray and Igbos are happy.

Sound it to the hearing of IPOB...

UkoAnnang:


This could only happen in a disgrace country like Nigeria

One party state

Are you Igbo?

The earlier scheduled visit has been cancelled. Another should be rescheduled, President Tinubu should meet Trump and not his Vice.

It is not about whether America is safe or not, it is about stopping Fulani militias killing people mindlessly, because their Leaders are sponsoring and supporting them.

I love how Obidients and by extension IPOs are scouting for news about this topic of genocide in the Northern part of Nigeria. I know President Tinubu, he will do whatever it takes to find a solution and that solution will mean the Fulani can't lay claim to the Presidency, until 2031. So this genocide talk is "advantage Tinubu"!

His choice, his political career, I'm not really concerned. Wetin concern me now is how the Northern leaders with stop genocide against Christians
