Umahi Holds Rally In Ebonyi, Gives 3,480 Youths ₦2.6 Billion Startup Capital

APC Gathers Biggest Rally in the History of Southeast in Ebonyi as Umahi empowers citizens with Capital.

HighTableVoice:
Any CON-fidedent man will tell you Obi is a salesman. He is not Nigeria's Solution. He is not fit to lead Nigeria in some important aspect. He is not respected enough or even that much respectable. He complains, complains and complains infecting the system with tribal and religious divisions. He is not a man of solution, he has no plan for presidency as he has said himself, and to me he is just campaigning and hoping for the best.

Iyorcha Ayu said, during the PDP convention that produced him, that if a Northern presidential candidate emerges he will resign to pave way for a southern chairman.

Atiku emerged as the presidential candidate of PDP and Mr. Ayu has refused to resign and the presidential candidate, Atiku Abubaka is supporting him.

Gentlemen and ladies, it is clear that whatever PDP will promise in the forth coming presidential election will never be fulfilled. PDP has not repented from its avalanche of sins that made it loss 2015 presidential election.

PDP is coming to scam Nigerians will promises they will never fulfil.

Initially, I thought that governor Wike was the problem. Now I know better. Ayu agreed to stepdown if a northern presidential candidate emerges. Now he has refused to step down.

A party that cannot fulfil internal party agreement, how will they fulfil their promises to Nigerians.

PDP has failed massively.

Felimax:
Buhari is a bad leader and a Fulani apologetic, it has nothing to do with Atiku.
The last time i checked the best president Nigeria did have the opportunity to keep still remains President Yar'Adua of blessed memory and to the best of my knowledge he is not Igbo. I for one will not and cannot use Buhari sins to rub Atiku just as i don't believe every Igbo man is as dumb as Peter Obi.

I don't know the problems you have with people's personal life. Face the issue on ground.

Dele Alake, Director of Strategic Communication for the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council, in this interview on NEWS CENTRAL TV, speaks on why he is marketing Asiwaju Bola Tinubu to Nigerians ahead of the 2023 general elections. TEMIDAYO AKINSUYI who monitored the interview for Daily Independent brings the excerpts:

Why do you think your principal, Tinubu, is being misunderstood by many Nigerians?

I will say he is being misunderstood by only one or two categories of Nigerians, not by Nigerians in general. There are Nigerians who have a sense of history, they do not misconstrue Bola Tinubu because they were aware and still aware of the transformation and leadership that he gave and he continues to give. So, they don’t misconstrue him. Now, there are those who could innocently misconstrue and those are the very young ones who probably were not around 23 years ago when he held sway in Lagos State and implemented all of these transformational initiatives and policies. So, they may be very green.

Then, the second category of those who could misconstrue him is the category of those who deliberately adopts selective amnesia because of envy. They do so because they envy the man’s achievement, his lofty height. What he has been able to do in terms of ideas, vision, knowledge, capacity, courage. He has been able to demonstrate all of these attributes of leadership and naturally, like sugar attracts ants, success attracts envy, especially in our own environment. In Nigeria and Africa, it does. So, those are the categories of people that I will say misconstrue Asiwaju. But for the rest of Nigerians who have a sense of history, who are very honest, thorough and meticulous in their analysis and those who subject issues to critical analysis, they do not misconstrue him at all. In fact, they admire him and they commend his giant strides. Today, where he ruled, all the other candidates, whether Atiku, Obi, Kwankwaso and others that I didn’t mention, all of them have been in public office but there is none of them whose records of performance or antecedents in office matches the enduring legacies of Asiwaju.

Some people have praised Tinubu for headhunting good hands while others said it is just a fluke. What is your take on that?

It can never be a fluke. Let me tell you one thing; only the deep can call to the deep. That is a truism. Nobody can controvert that. You cannot give what you don’t have. You cannot attract brains, experts, professionals and technocrats if you are a dullard, dimwitted or you are dunce. If you are bland, jaded or stale, you cannot attract the best. The headhunting capability of Asiwaju is legendary. Everybody, including his enemy acknowledges that. That means the man is not a pushover. Many years ago when we were still in office, there was a phone-in programme and an old man from Ibadan called and said ‘oh, we know you people are doing well in Lagos because Tinubu has lots of professionals and experts around him and in his cabinet’. I told the man that ‘sir, it only takes the deep to call to the deep. You have to give it to Bola Tinubu. He’s been able to identify talent, put round pegs in round holes’. Don’t forget, it is not just identifying those talents and putting them in their right compartments where their efficiency will be maximized, he is also able to manage them, because management of human beings is the most difficult venture. You can manage machines because at the push of a button, the machine will respond. That is not so with human beings.

News Central TV is a pan-African station and Africans are watching this interview. Africans are asking question why Bola Tinubu who is noted to be a proud African be having strategic meetings outside the continent specifically in Europe?

Again, I have had that being said. I think it speaks to those who condemn such a move. Within their rights, it is their views. When you are in a political, competitive environment, the objective is to win the election. Now, this competitive environment or politics is a game of numbers. So, there will be alignments, realignments, caucuses, interests and various hues and tendencies to negotiate votes in order to swell your ranks and your votes. So, if in the course of ensuring that you attract and negotiate with as many groups or tendencies as possible in order to swell your ranks and increase your votes, one or two of such groups now decide to go and hold their meetings outside the country, would you now say because they are not holding it in your country, you won’t go there? Because you know you are looking for numbers. It’s a game of numbers.

Talking about numbers, Nyesom Wike, love him or hate him, it looks like he is the new bride everybody wants on his side. What can you tell us from the Bola Tinubu camp? Are you making some overtures to the camp of Wike?

Of course, they met. That meant there was a kind of rapprochement that is ongoing there. It is not also limited to Nyesom Wike. Like I told you, this is a game of numbers. Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and his ticket must be looking for others to increase the numbers. So, talks are going on. Alignments and realignment negotiations are going on and this will go on necessarily until the day of election. That is the nature of politics and electioneering anywhere in the world.

Is your organisation also making that move within the APC keeping in mind that since after the primaries, there are notable names that have not openly declared support even though we know the campaigns haven’t officially started?

You have mentioned it. The campaign hasn’t started. So, they don’t want to jump the gun. Don’t forget that my principal is a very experienced politician. He is a consummate one. He knows the regulations and he is not in any way about to flout any INEC regulations. So, let the others be going around and flouting, he won’t be, because he is the man to beat. He has to be the most careful of them all because everyone is looking for any straw to claw on with which to denigrate him. He has to be careful.

You are not new in this role. In 2015, your role with the Buhari Campaign Organisation is similar to what it is now. What does it mean to you?

At a time, don’t forget that we are just coming up with this alliance between the ACN, CPC, ANPP, a faction of PDP and all of that. So, there was a need to actually market the emergent political party and its candidate. It was in a professional capacity in which I was appointed one of the Public Relations people as it were at that time and we performed the job at the time. Don’t also forget that the country was also very much on the edge, like on the tenterhooks. Everybody was wishing for a change as it were, not just us but nearly everybody in the country. That was it. For me to be in this role performing this job for Tinubu, it is not new to me because I have always done this for him since 1999. So, like a friend of mine told me a few days ago. He said he read that I have taken over my new old role.

Do you think it is the right time for Tinubu to vie for the presidency?

I think it is the best time, not just the best time but the right time. The way the country is today, you don’t need any experimentation going forward. We need someone who has his hands on the plough and never looks back. Someone with the right amount of vision, courage and with the right scope of knowledge to move Nigeria forward. All the other contenders, whether you look at the party or not, you have to look at the driver or who is going to be the driver. That is the most important. You also have to put their qualities on the table. Because none of these candidates have been president before, you have to fall back on their track records of performance when they were in office and when they had opportunities to be in public office. When you put all these qualities on the table, there is no gainsaying the fact that Tinubu stands head and shoulders above any of them.

Ceenaija:
Tinubu well fail woefully in the presidential election especially in South South and South East. Forget about the politicking going on, they are either for Peter Obi or Abubakar Atiku.
Remember that most of them pleaded with him to shelve his ambition and support a candidate from the south east for equity and unity of the country but he refused.

Relax by October you will see where the trend is going.

Michelle70:
why are we using religion sentiments?

He might win or fail, but if we use religion sentiment to vote someone then it shows we are not ready yet

Lanretoye:
How old were you between 1999 and 2007,im sure tinubu paid your waec fee then.if you are not up to 15years in 1999 then you dont need to know what tinubu did.

Dereformer:
APC government has always told us that they know the sponsors of terrorism in Nigeria. But they have failed to name names.

Is the APC government not an accomplice?

Felimax:
Why not spend the energy to weep for your own generation? As if I even have your time! Atiku and Buhari are two different people and as far as I am concerned your Obi has not said anything to convince me. In fact, as time progresses my dislike for Obi is growing. Your Obi is so empty.

I am wishing him well though.

Felimax:
My friend go and cook stone or better still hug transformer.

Atiku is your next president.

tonyuny12:
They quickly pointed at 2015 and have brain failure to remember 2011. Same Tinubu who fought Jonathan 2015, worked for Jonathan 2011. In politics, interest is what counts and not emotions

Bobloco:

Dereformer:
There are indications and plan to procure high precision secret cameras for PDP and LP agents for Lagos state.

This is following high incidence of violence that usually greet Lagos on election day.

The parties are planning of having hard proof evidence should anything go wrong.

JewsAreSatanic:
Before you misbehave like the way you give your grandfather sliding tackles and slap your father every morning, note that I am not and will never ever support a Tinubu or anything APC political machinery.

Obi is a fool.

What we are witnessing with the Disobedient mob of displaced Osus is nothing but a revamped Igbo Zikist Marxist movement boosted to the max to full blown unapologetic Zionism.

Obi has stated the Igbo position which is that Nigeria's continued folly into a centrist multicultural cesspit is ok.

For the Igbo it is either the helms of power in a skewed centrist arrangement as envisioned by Zik and promogulted by the likes of Ironsi, Ojukwu and Nzeagwu or Biafra or their useless Igbo lame empire expansionism.

Imagine slaves wanting to conquer their betters!


I have been screaming my voice hoarse here since that judas goat Nnamdi Kanu made his shameless entrance , that Igbo nationalism is a farce. I backed this up with the fact that Igbos are the most dependent on a one Nigeria project and that heir useless Biafra project is not feasible without Igbo expansionism and annexation of the Niger Delta towards replicating the disaster known as the old eastern region where minorities where treated less than shit.

Now that the Igbo has come to see that the same notice given to them in the 60:s is more than valid they have now decided to go full Zikist.

Obi is their new Zik just as the north adopted the disaster Buhari as their new Uthman don Fodio.

I want to warn you all in my now revised Better South that does not include the useless yeast , that an Obi presidency is a Zikist Marxist one driven by a mob of rabid Zionist that is no different than the madness of the paradoxical liberal and Jihadist passion that saw the idiot Buhari become President in 2015.

We in the Niger Delta can and should be able to retain our 5% toga by rejecting another George Soros propagated populace madness.

Obi, will be worse than Buhari. He will implement every single lunatic madness dictated by the Talmudist bastards in the WEF.

Patrioticbreed9:
I will demolish 200 churches!.

I will make sure that the numbers of church is the same as the number of local goverment in Nigeria, in worst case twice, that is, two church per L.G.A.

Any pastor with a calling must be registerd.

And we are going to have less than 10 church brands.

If a church must have a remote outreach that outreach must not accept offerings, if caught that outreach will be sealed and the pastors arrested and sentenced 48yrs in prison.

Jesus and his appostles preach for free.


Lets say you just want to walk and evangalise, you must not accept offerings, if not the above punishment is applicable to you.
