And you think that the North is careful about party?

Which region is not careful about party?

bahaushe1:
There are anti-Tinubu camps in the southwest.

Even OBJ when he was president and a ruthless one at that was anti-Tinubu. Yet he failed in all his plots to defeat Tinubu, how much more tiny insects that are anti-Tinubu?

I don't know which dimension you live in dear

PlayMaker14:
A confused duckling calling someone confused, a man being tossed up and down like a worthless coin in the hands of a referee? He stands no chance of defeating Mai Mala Buni or Nasir El-rufai in any election.

So don't get confused and daft at the same time, check again and see that the urinating machine is irrelevant.

Political Neophyte. How is he tossed?
You mean on social media and media fronts?
Do those win elections ?
Ask OBJ how he lost to Tinubu, even with all the presidential might he could gather, he failed to wrest Lagos from Tinubu.
Love it or hate it, Tinubu is the most influential Politician after Buhari. APC knows this, the reason why he has the most formidable campaign, backed by enormous resources and foot soldiers, consisting of ex governors, serving governors, NASS Members, ex NASS Members etc.

You can choose o remain ignorant and denial. I am not from the SW, which shows my fervent position in reality. Only a novice will hold your position.

MajorOvakporaye:
SHUT UP!!! YOU KNOW NOTHING

APC DOES NOT NEED SOUTHWEST TO WIN PRESIDENCY. NA FEVER DEY WORRY YOU SO

Only in your wet dreams you mere Neophyte.

na2016:
Your analysis is wrong.
What is the population of the South West? Does Tinubu have control over the entire southwest?
How many states do you have in the southwest and is it possible to have just 25% in a few of them?

If you answer those questions sincerely, you will agree with me that South West under Tinubu is not really needed to win Nigeria's election.

Confused boy. The SW is needed by the North to have the required constitional spread to win a Presidential election. It is not just about numbers alone olodo!!

PlayMaker14:
Telling someone he doesn't know anything about politics, whereas, you're the dull one here.... APC needs the urinating machine to win? Lol, if APC fields an slowpoke in your community, that slowpoke just needs vote from Kano, Katsina and Kaduna to defeat the 3mil votes from the entire SW region.

You are quite confused. The last time I checked Tinubu is the most influential Politician that controls the SW. He is a strong APC member with political alliance with the Northern states. If he emerges the presidential candidate, only death will prevent him from winning.

ekaette1621:
Buhari is a Muslim
Tinubu is also a Muslim .

The next president must be a Christian and his Vp a Muslim.

Except Tinubu changes his Faith which is impossible.

How does religion affect the cost of garri ?

Yusufisraelj:
Not really oooo.

Are you telling me that there's no SW person that can pull votes in that region as tinubu would?

Yes tinubu is a grand father but in politics there are men who rule the state, who are not the president and if they stand behind your opposition it will only take God.

Havent you heard of one of our president apologizing to a citizen for offending him? He knows the implications.

Name 1 person in the SW who is half as influential as Tinubu.

1nigeriamyfoot:
In your dream

Election won in Osun state was through rigging despite that Osun state na Tinubu hometown

Why is Oyo state not under Tinubu pocket?

Even average lagosians hate Tinubu badly but he always use thug to intimidate people & rig elections for his selected candidate

Bola Tinubu has pushed his luck too far & 2023 will be his end in politics

Watch & see

Exactly. Let us wait and see.

You ignorantly don't understand how deeply rooted APC in Lagos is. It's a way of life in Lagos and not a party. The grassroot is deep and every member benefits from the party, from PSP, gutter
Clearing, Volunteers etc... Every public office holder from Teachers to civil servants are APC members. They are hundreds of thousands. It's impossible they loose. Like you said, time will tell.

sunnyflakes:
Then you don't know alot about Nigeria politics. You need to study pol 111 and 112. Originally the alliance is between the North end and South East and a part of South South.

Olodo!!

beejay85:
2011 election that brought Pres. Jonathan made it clear for all to see that only the Northern vote can and will never produce the presidency...
Import voters from Chad,underage,goat,sheep and cattle...the north won't produce more than what Buhari polled...
Combined vote from the SS,SE,SW,NC will always trouce votes from the north ...
The northern Elites are very much aware of this..which make it uneasy for them to renege on existing agreement

You are quite confused.

Badgers14:
Remember, Tinubu does not have SW in his pocket when OBJ is there.. Tinubu have lots of clout in SW politics and so does OBJ.

So if Tinubu is interested in securing the bloc, he needs OBJ to fight in his corner.. just like they say, when two elephants fight, the ground suffers.. if OBJ and Tinubu are on the opposite end, by the time Tinubu expends his energy to fight him off, other candidates are busy working other zones.

Also remember OBJ have some love in SS,and up north, SE don't really dislike him like that.. I would think OBJ have more influence in SE than Tinubu.

Dreamer. OBJ is totally irrelevant in the SW with no influence politically. Ogun, Osun, Lagos, Ondo are in Tinubus poctket. Akerelodu confirmed that Tinubu is his leader.

You don't know politics my dear.

cutecommend:
Relax, if these men listed strongly say NO TO TINUBU, forget whatever South-West wanna do..It will be difficult for Tinubu.

North cannot win without the Southwest. Ask Buhari....

cutecommend:
Tinubu is one of the strong persons with presidential ambition, but we have some men who can stop his goal from fulfilment, no matter the tactics he uses, except God is really for him.

(1) Buhari: If Buhari does not want Tinubu as president, he should just forget the presidency. It will be very difficult for Tinubu, but if Buhari is on Tinubu's side, then Tinubu has chances.

(2) Babangida: If Babangida speaks to the northern elders and powerful northerners not to allow Tinubu in, Tinubu will find it hard to be a president.

(3) Obasanjo: If Obasanjo is against Tinubu, that may hamper his plan.

(4) Goodluck Jonathan: If Goodluck decides to contest, he has potency to beat Tinubu. Jonathan has advantages. (1) He has only one term to fulfill, which may be a good thing for the north (2) He has been friendly to Buhari.

(6) Mamman Daura: This is Buhari's relative. If this man is strongly against Tinubu, it may be a very tough one for Tinubu.

(7) Cabals: The northern Cabals. If these people are totally against Tinubu, Tinubu may never win presidency.

You apparently don't know anything in Politics. APC will need the Southwest to win next presidential election. Tinubu is the Leader of the Southwest and wherever he points the Southwest follows.

APC needs Tinubu to win.

Nwodosis:
It would be easier for the North to control a president from the minority tribe than that of a majority tribe and the reason Amaechi may likely get the crown!

Note : Amaechi no be Nyamiri and shouldn't be seen as such.

LOL!!
Someone that cannot even win his state?

I don't think APC leaders are that dense to field Amaechi. If they want to win, their best option should be from the South West.

Fahdiga:
Keep dreaming

Mark this day

Fahdiga:
Tinubu is the biggest loser here

Wait and see. 4 more years of wailing coming up.

Ever8090:
Them don start, that is why they have refuse to develop the country so that they will be using her underdevelopment for election campaigns

Typical Nigerian masses. Negative, unreasonable and daft!!

Jennyclay:
My funniest skit maker is Oga sabinus, I like that guy especially when he's about to cry with that his funny face. I also like his background soundtrack. Oga sabinus mumu...

Boring skit maker for me is MC Lively, He talks too much abeg.. His comedy is more like noise to me.

Good afternoon, how is family?

PrinceOfLagos:
He still get 19 more people to visit

Ambition wey Buni don use wipe yansh throway inside gutter since

E go shock you. Waiting for you to continue your wailing on a Tinubu presidency

HenryDion:
I believe the secret is working out, eating right, having enough sleep, surrounding yourself with positivity, and loving yourself.

I see guys claim they don't give a damn about hitting the gym, that all they care about is making money.

F&ck it!

Working out wouldn't stop you from making money. Don't use that as an excuse. If anything, the clarity of mind after a workout will give you the confidence.

I'm a testimony.

Take your health very seriously. Work out, eat right, have enough sleep.

Your future self will thank you.

Health is wealth.

You're free to crush tho

PS: NL males who are easily intimidated or prone to envy, you're free to leave your comment

You are being lied to. See your strong!! Face. God!!

OreMI22:
Lol......Russia is imposing sanctions on USA.

The sanction thing works like a fight between a billion-dollar conglomerate and a tiny company.
Using Nigeria as an instance, Dangote conglomerate can stop buying sugar cane from a major farmer in Jos, and also influence other buyers not to buy the farmer's produce. To make up the shortfall, it could invest in farmers in Cameroon or Benin to supply it with Sugar cane.

Of course the farmer can fight back by refusing to buy Dangote cement for his one-room shack construction project. However in reality, Dangote can ruin the farmer by blocking 100% of its income while the farmer cannot even hurt 1% of Dangote's business in Jos alone.

Russia is about the size of Texas's economy. Worse still, it is not as innovative as Japan in high-tech goods critically needed in the USA. Therefore, it has almost nothing EXCEPT GAS! Unfortunately, it cannot afford to stop selling its oil and gas because 100% of its income comes from there too. Not to mention that USA has its own abundant oil and gas supplies too.

Olodo!!

30% of Russias income comes from gas not 100%. Do you think Russia is as dormant as your country?

Russia remains a major exporter of military hardware, timber, mechanized hardware,etc..

Truthisunique2:
Obj never had Tinubu time, he was only interested in revenue

Even as gentle as GEJ Tinubu traded Ribadu, Atiku to keep Lagos in the deal

Again you have shown your ignorance. It is very clear and empirical that OBJ lodged in Victoria Island during the Gubernatorial election in a bid to capture Lagos with all the Presidential might at his disposal, yet he failed woefully.

Ask your father, since you are ignorant about it.

Tinubu is the only politician that defied OBJ and survived every plot to bring him down.

You can't take the ingenious craft in politics Tinubu possesses. He has a broader network now, and a more formidable alliance with the Northern bigwigs. Governor of Kano is at his beck and call....

You are a Neophyte in politics. You won't understand.

Truthisunique2:
obj was never interested in regime change in Lagos

Who be the ant called tilumbu before obj, obj was only interested in the revenue argument

He already knew his Yoruba people were his greatest enemy so he had no business trying to rule them

So far tilumbu have failed in every thing national politics

Since he created AC, ACN, he has failed to win presidential election until he begged Buhari in 2015

In 2015 he wanted to be VP but he failed again and was forced with osinbajo

Since 2019 he has been failing and loosing all the powers he had in apc, lost oshomole lost everything

Now he is about to loose 2023 again

Poor student of History. 2003 elections OBJ was hell bent on capturing the South Western states at all cost. During the gubernatorial election, he relocated from Aso Rock to the Presidential lodge in VI. Yet he failed in all his plot to capture Lagos.

He tried to starve Lagos from allocations, yet Tinubu turned it around to his advantage.

Underestimate Tinubu at your peril.

PrinceOfLagos:
Lol you talk like Helinues

Una too dey believe too much on that yeye jagaban of cocaine addicts

The same way OBJ bragged with all the presidential might he could muster but yet he failed on every front to dislodge Tinubu several times.

Tinubu is a man of few words. You won't see him personally venture into an ambition without being successful.

Underestimate him at your peril. Ask Jonathan!!

PrinceOfLagos:
Sink that in dear

The message is clear

Tinubu endorsed senator sani Musa

Buhari endorsed Abdullahi adamu and adamu will surely get the Chairmanship.

Tinubu should start thinking of floating a new party

Only time will tell.

PrinceOfLagos:
I know Buhari will not endorse someone that is a political ally to Tinubu, I know

Tinubu shot himself on the leg by daring Buhari and the North to a dirty fight and I trust Buhari won't dignify Tinubu with a reply

Na underground Buhari go use destroy Tinubu ambition

It's game on baby

LOL!!
You are nothing but a comic relief. Lost in your own delusion.

Buhari will pay Tinubu back for making his presidential dream a reality. Just wait and see.

You will wail for 8 more years!!

You never even started.

djon78:
What happened at Abuja election. APC got 3 PDP got 3.
Abuja has been a PDP enclave
Buhari even lost 2019 presidential election to atiku in Abuja.

APC even tried to grab 3 local governments

Olodo!!

The previous election APC had 5, APGA had 1 PDP had 1.

Today APC has 3 PDP has 3.

What does that suggest?

You lack depth and you are grossly misinformed.

You are confusing the general election with the local election hence your invalidity and nonsensical views.

You are a baby in politics my dear.

djon78:

As for Tinubu I have nothing much to say, but people that have all the powers rearly get Nigerian presidency:

When OBJ came out of prison he didn't have much clout
Yaradua had no clout
Jonathan had no clouth
Even Buhari had no clout, he failed many times

So I will be on the lookout for Tinubu
He has so much clout
Whether he will break the jinx

Very typical.... You are a poor student of political history. During the previous Abuja local elections, APC had 5 of the 6 Councils, with APGA and PDP having 1 each.

Just recently, the concluded local election suggests PDP gaining grounds. Including winning the seat of power, previously won by APC.

Only a person riddled in denial will think APC is still waxing strong. The party is bleeding and the leaders know it.

If Tinubu pulls out his support, APC will fail to beat PDP. Tinubu holds the Joker and he knows it, any reasonable person in politics knows it.

That man is a political genius and he has done his homework, hence his confidence.

djon78:
I will mark this moniker. When the dust settles, we will know how far.

Politics is a game and Tinubu is the best at it at the moment. Name one contender that have more clout than him?

He is an asset and APC knows if he pulls out, they stand a chance of loosing the election.

Look at the just concluded Abuja local elections.

COMPAQ:
until they can no longer talk coherently and they are shaking with Parkinson and wetting themselves abi. So in your mind, Mugabe was the wisest President in the world!!

FYI. Tinubu and his descendants have carved a future for themselves. You are busy making mockery of a King maker that wants to be king, while you are busy spending a great deal of your miserable life on Nairaland wailing over Tinubu.

Such a clown. You will certainly live to see a Tinubu presidency. Just wait and see.

djon78:
How many votes did Tinubu give Buhari?

Look at the big picture?
Nigerians were tired, they wanted change. Buhari had votes across the nation.

If you want to mention those that supported Buhari with there resources, Rotimi Amaechi played a pivotal role. In the APC primaries, Buhari had no money, Atiku had the fund and flooded the convention with dollars. Amaechi with Rivers money matched Atiku dollars for dollars, Buhari won the primaries. That's why Buhari doesn't play with the guy.

Tinubu was not the only one that made Buhari president. So stop saying all those. His voting contribution no reach one quarter of what Buhari got from the entire North: North East, West and the middle belt.

In 2011 Buhari didn't get the entire North. More of North West and East. Jonathan had a bit of core northern votes, the whole of middle belt, South South, South East, South West although he lost osun state to ribadu

But in 2015 Buhari got entire core North, middle belt and South West. While Jonathan got only South South and South East. That's the difference

Kid brain. Without Tinubu, Buhari would have never materialized his Presidential ambition. Even Buhari knows he owes it to Tinubu.

So let us see if Buhari will pay Tinubu back in the same measure or will work against his ambition.

However, it is important to know that Tinubu has already done his homework. He has the most vast network compared to any potential aspirant. With or without Buharis support, he is capable to win the candidacy in a fair Direct or indirect Primary.
