PoliticsRe: What's Stopping Wike From Clinching The PDP Presidential Ticket by dude(m): 10:47am On Jul 30, 2025
WizardOfNG:
I have no comprehension deficit. Perhaps you do. Wike has made his stance clear.

You are the one who fails to accept that because the bolded in your post, which clearly shows you to be an emotional and sentimental character, has shown you clearly have issues with him and wish to drag Wike by fire by force.

Good luck to you because, minus being mind-readers, most principled and objective folks would give Wike the benefit of the doubt and accept his explanation for why he will not run against Tinubu rather than continue insisting otherwise
.
Not surprising you failed to raise any meaningful counter points. Analysing the past is often the surest ways of predicting a future. Even in science, multiple established previous scenarios will often raise the probality of a likely re-occurence.
Given your man's previous history, I will lay solidly that he has no loyalty to the president or the administration. It's simply a relationship of convenience. The PDP is fractured on all fronts and depleted beyond conviction. There is no 2027 Presidency for the party and anyone under any illusion can see it. Simple reason oga Wike won't attempt running.

WizardOfNG:
You are driving against traffic over a matter that is very simple. Wike is a stand-out appointee of Tinubu who has now become a fervent supporter of what the PBAT Presidency is trying to achieve.

He has resolved to work for this Presidency to complete a maximum two terms he believes will benefit Nigerians immensely.

[b]No principled individual contests against a boss they believe is doing well. Rather they look to take over from that boss when his/her tenure is over.
[/b]

Wike's has exhaustively explained his decision to not contest against Tinubu. Nothing at all to do with the bolded in your post.
You seem to lack simple comprehension. Where in his political or personal history has Wike ever demonstrated sound principle. His explanations lack meaning when analyzed against his political history. Did he demonstrate any principle to his relationships with the Amaechi's, Odili's or Jonathan's ? You can't be so naive to belive a political rhetoric as bolded. A simple glimpse at the political terrain will reveal Wike has no chance. He is not known to throw away any political opportunity that will favour him. He went solidly against an Amaechi under who he served as Local Government chairman, Chief of staff and was nominated as a minister. Wasted no time in turning against him when federal politics so dictated. Similarly recently sent verbal insults at the Odili's and Jonathan's who in no small measure saw him to being Governor and influencing the judiciary for him. Or where was such principle when he openly worked against his own party at the 2023 electionshuh Not stopping their, he accepted an appointment the present administration while remaining a member of the PDP. How with a sane natural mind do.you equate such an individual with any kind of principle? You are either operating from a position of advanced ignorance or simply not being honest
A simple and more plausible explanation is that Wike can't win the Presidency under the present circumstances and he knows it. Nothing to do with any principle. It is well known that Wike and principle exist on different planets
PoliticsRe: What's Stopping Wike From Clinching The PDP Presidential Ticket by dude(m): 8:57am On Jul 30, 2025
He simply can't win. All the odds are firmly stacked against him. The PDP has lost many of it heavy weight membership drive to the ADC while others have defected to the APC. Even some of the few left are not exactly his allies. I.e, Bala Mohammed. Having studied the political terrain, Wike knows he has no chance of winning presidential election even if he grabs the PDP ticket. It must be known that Wike has NO permanent loyalty to anyone. Amaechi, Odili, Jonathan and others who were once his benefactors all now stand subject of insults. If he thought he had any good chance. Wike will waste no second on contesting against Tinubu and throwing him put of power.

PoliticsDingyadi, Maiha, Bianca Ojukwu And Four Others Get Ministerial Appointments by dude(op): 3:57pm On Oct 23, 2024
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has appointed seven new ministers into his cabinet.

They are Ambassador Bianca Odimegwu Ojukwu, widow of the late Ikemba of Nnewi, Sir Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, as Minister of State for Foreign Affairs; and Jumoke Oduwole, ex-Executive Secretary to the Presidential Enabling Business Environment Council, as Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment.

Others are Dr Nentawe Yilwatda, Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction; Muhammadu Maigari
Dingyadi, Minister of Labour & Employment; Idi Mukhtar Maiha, Ministry of Livestock Development; Rt.Hon.Yusuf Abdullahi Ata, Minister of State, Housing and Urban Development; Dr Suwaiba Said Ahmad, Minister of State
Education.


Sunday Dare, former Minister of Sports, has been named Special Adviser to the President on Public Communication and Orientation.

Although not clearly stated, Dare is suspected to have replaced Ajuri Ngelale, who in September resigned as Presidential spokesman amid controversy.

The president charged the newly appointed cabinet members to see their appointments as a call to serve the nation.

He added that all appointees must understand the administration’s eagerness and determination to set Nigeria on the path to irreversible growth and invest the best of their abilities into the actualisation of the government’s priorities.

PoliticsRe: Why Ex-gov Bello Is Afraid Of Efcc! Tinubu, Faleke, Late Audu's Death & Vendetta by dude(m): 1:33pm On Apr 19, 2024
BigkokoRep:
Thanks 👍 for admiration.

The Refusal to step down was actually supposed to be used as a bargaining chip. I live in Geregu and still have homies out there, so I know a bit or two about white lion.... His greatest mistake was snubbing Asiwaju during the hey days of Audu's death!

He tried to negotiate, even coot Buhari but Asiwaju is not one to easily forgive an offense especially when done when he's vulnerable... After Audu's death, Asiwaju was vulnerable and he openly saw his dream of presidency going up in flames before him..... Instead of trying to use Buhari to prevail on Asiwaju, I don't know why he didn't reached out to Aisha? Asiwaju like me, has great respect for women!

No....if Bello choose to remain hidden, he can. All he needs is a loyal governor. That's all. If he can wait it out, Asiwaju is going in 2027....
Moreover, from next year, reelection will promptly start taking him mind off from vendetta. He will need to win Kogi State, that's when the governor would negotiate a way out for him!
There again you are wrong on certain things. Like you, I work in Lokoja and live at Abuja. The mere snubbing of Asiwaju after Audu's death was hardly Bello's doing. An APC bloc led by El-rufai effectively saw that Asiwaju 's Faleke was halted. Bello at the time was an inconsequential political figure. The political odds of the time simply favoured his emergence. Recall Faleke insisted on being sworn in as governor and not to be deputy to a man who did not win the primaries. He even went to court. ....!
As for Asiwaju bring vulnerable in that era can't be correct. Just what is the population of Kogi to significantly alter his projections. Taken into account that he won the presidential primaries with the same Bello as Governor whom would have gotten the votes of Kogi delegates simply makes means he can't be vulnerable on account of mere Kogi.

I insist Bello's best chances were before or during the primaries. But as seen, he's a poor student of history and politics.

Then your post simply means you know nothing about Tinubu's forgiving spirit. Simply do your research and you will recant that reasoning. Tinubu and Ogunlewe (then powerful minister of works and housing sponsored by Obasanjo) were bitter enemies of that era. They fought each other to a standstill. Today they are buddies. Ogunlewe's son even contested a house of rep election under APC. Do we mention Obanikoro, Fayose or even El- Rufai who was his associate till late and almost became a minister? All major political actors know better than make and keep unnecessary eternal political enemies. Tinubu is no exception.
Oga, Bello certainly can't consider staying hidden forever. He just may make it easy for EFCC to convict him in absentia. Not putting up a presence will weaken his case and even leave a poor impression on the judges. His legal team know better than advise him to continually hide. And I tell you it's near impossible.

With a prospect of Muri gaining victory at the tribunal, what make you certain Bello will be political force after this year. Does he even presently command political forces in ebira land? The only person with such pure personal followership in Ebira land was late A.T Ahmed.
If he is waiting for 2027 to bargain after hiding,then it's a weak/poor strategy. He just may be in jail at the time. He's no Kwankwaso or Yerima with cult following that can attract or force a political negotiation. Outside office, he's no heavyweight.
I will tell you again that Asiwaju can't be displaced in 2007 as you think or wish. Hear again, a man who bulldozed his way to this point from 1999 is no featherweight. I don't like him or his government, but I am an objective person.
PoliticsRe: Why Ex-gov Bello Is Afraid Of Efcc! Tinubu, Faleke, Late Audu's Death & Vendetta by dude(m):
So I read your post with admiration till I got to certain faulty analysis. As I see, Bello's problem with the current establishment cannot exactly be due to his previously not accepting Faleke to deputize him. As seen, his refusal to step down for Asiwaju at the APC presidential primaries was his major undoing. This is in addition to his open mockery of the same Asiwaju prior the same elections. You see, political sins are hardly forgiven.
By my opinion, the smartest thing to have done at the primary was step down and negotiate your EFCC case. The windows of opportunities does not often last long, and Bello's foolish ego blinded him to post office realities. His political stature is not bigger than Akpabio, Fayemi and others who stepped down and negotiated Senate President and freedom. Are you aware Kayode Fayemi has or had a recent case with EFCC. Have you heard anything about it recently? You see, the dumbest thing bello did was go head-on with Asiwaju. Smartest thing would have been to exploit Tinubu's desperation for presidency and negotiate his way out of trouble.

Then as his not getting a fair trial under the present regime, I submit to you that his running and hiding like a house rat has obviously dealt a cruel blow to his image. If I were his adviser,I would have told him to go straight to the EFCC headquarters right after his predecessor rescued him. Lawyers will then take it up and get him out on bail. We know the drill, he won't be the first ex-governor to be wanted by the EFCC. A combination of legal fireworks,lobbying relevant people in the establishment may eventually find him a soft landing. Evading arrest shames him and gives his opponent room to mock him.

Then....! He can't remain hidden even for the next few weeks. They will fish him out of whatever hole he rolls under. Best option is turn himself in and allow lawyers get him out on bail and exploit the weak criminal legal system. Recall late Audu was never convicted. He even went on to contest another election about 13 years after he left office and was arrested by the EFCC. As for running away to any embassy, I find this line of thought very uninformed for obvious reasons. If he's wanted in Nigeria, how does he submit himself to Nigerian authorities by way of their own embassy..for a man who is clearly evading arrest? Though obviously not an intelligent person as his conduct and utterances portray, this simple obvious fact can't be lost on him. As for his ganging up with northern Turks like El-rufai means you know next to nothing about the Nigerian system especially the realities on ground. A Tinubu as governor repeatedly defeated a powerful and rascally Obasanjo's candidates in Lagos elections in 2003 and 2007 inspite of all presidential powers thrown at him. The same Tinubu held on to Lagos and brought in Governors like it was his company ever since. He in a while expanded his political base to Ekiti and Osun,then the entire southwest.He went on to wither the storm during the Jonathan years and the political troubles that came his way. The same man put together a political party that seized power at the center. Then he bulldozed his way to winning a tough primary inspite of the then sitting President's reluctance to support him. Please tell me how a man who came all this way without all the Nigerian powers will be defeated by a few political minions? I mean as a sitting President' with all attendant powerss.Recall he won well in many parts of the same North. Bros,like itbor not, it won't happen..only death will part him from office. There will only be one Jonathan in a Nigerian generation.

I say again that Bello 's biggest opportunity was right before the elections where he should have negotiated his personal liberty and stepped down. Akpabio did! We know what it fetched hm. Fayemi did. He's not being haunted by the EFCC despite his having a pending case. Am not certain he has even been arraigned yet. Bello's Ego and political naivety pushed him to this point. It's simple
