Everybody knows Adeleke won Osun State gubernatorial elections. It’s a clear fact. Even the dogs on the streets know it.

The rerun that was marred with voters intimidation and all manners of shameful practices by both thugs and security agencies shud not even be called a election process unless we are not practicing democracy as it is done world over. What a shame.

The question/poser to you, was, "Which party didn't cut corners in both Ekiti and Osun States?"

Wailers Association of Nigeria. Lol
Mama Taraba killed her political career through stupidity. Now, she can't even join the same Atiku. She had to leave Buhari's administration and APC when it was dawned on her that she had become totally irrelevant just by saying trash. Sycophant.

Just the portion of your post I've put in highlight, says almost all about the woman, TBH. She couldn't even say with a straight face she would support Atiku if he grabs the PDP presidential ticket! Chai.

Oshiomhole met a party building with structural defects and about to collapse so intead of patching up brought bulldozers to demolish the whole building and start rebuilding again.

However the timing seems too late against 2019 deadline. He had to cut corners to win Osun, Ekiti was a narrow escape.

If only Oshiomhole came much earlier there probably wud have been no need for that much demolition and destruction.

Actually, there's still time for Oshiomhole to get things to like 90% right for their party, if their genuine members work even harder, and the party is lucky. The time period between now and February 20019, is like eternity in terms of politics and political intrigues.

Borderless:
Really? APC "won" in Ekiti and Osun? I used to think you're smart.

Spits*

Unfortunately, you don't get to make the call as to who wins an election; the election umpire does. Capiche?

The calls by the courts come down the line, and are thus stories for another day.

I'll miss his propaganda at the 9th Assembly for sure!

I sure like this characterization of the funny man, Shehu Sani... he's indeed been an epitome of self deceit and propaganda, while showing very limited intelligence and transparency. Shehu Sani deserves all the political and moral disgrace that come his way.

Shehu Sani is "good riddance to bad rubbish," in the voice of the late 'Bola Ige, the Cicero of Agodi.

I bet you also watched how PDP disgraced senator suleman hunkuyi at the primaries after his defection from APC.
You know what? The 3 senators from kaduna state messed up big time by always opposing El-Rufai at the slightest opportunity even to the detriment of the state's development.
The citizens are not happy with them, elrufai inclusive.

True talk. Thanks for articulating this aspect of the issue so well, faaz24.

MyVILLAGEpeople:
Well not in all cases. Just look at what played out in Ogun state where Amosun anointed candidate was rejected by the NWC from Abuja.

Besides you can't compare Jagaban influence in Lagos to that of El rufai in Kaduna.

I'd venture to say that, in the case of Ogun, what has finally happened might have just proved that Amosun was just a braggadocio all this while, especially as he tried to unnecessarily bluff away Osoba and Tinubu.

Serves Amosun right, IMHO.

Modarun:
Where is your sense of fairness, did Elrufai emerge or win his ticket via direct primaries? no he didnt. Funny enough how APC supporters go after Sen. Sani. for speaking truth to power. He has always attacked the cabals around Buhari and not Buhari.
Elrufai that was insulting the crap out of Buhari ubder OBJ is now a Buharideen. Lol.
If they Sani is not scared of direct primaries, its Elrufai thats scared.

LOL... of course Sani went after and bad-mouthed Buhari as well; you probably weren't paying enough attention.

KenOne:
Shehu Sani should not be allowed to returned to the senate. If APC make such mistake Shehu Sani will be the first to start criticising his own party and government in the 9th assembly just to impress Nigerians and PDP e-warriors.

Shehu Sani was the first APC senator that started bad mouthing his own party in the 8th assembly before others like Dino Melaye, Saraki, Abe, Abdullahi Sabi ,Dogara followed suit.

The actions of these people in the national assembly made Nigerians to say APC is its own opposition.

Good to know Niger state govenor made sure senator Abdullahi Sabi senate spokesman failed to secure a return ticket.

Good to know Bauchi state governor made sure Dogara left APC.

Good to know Amaechi made sure Magnus Abe failed in his bid to get the governorship ticket and senatorial ticket.

Good to know El Rufai made sure Shehu Sani automatic ticket was rescinded and will slug it out with El Rufai anointed candidate Uba Sani.

Magnus Abe and Shehu Sani are allies of Saraki they don't want Saraki to be impeached.

Both Abe and Shehu Sani have something in common they're PDP at state and APC at federal.

This is a very good post.

Well done, KenOne, and thanks for throwing in the case with Abe... I hadn't followed his own case close enough.

Mosesoly:
I think it is a good development for both candidates, El rufai doesn't want Sanni, but since it is direct primary, both of them should go out and test their popularity, it is better than the indirect primary where Elrufai can influence the delegates.
Sanni should edge this

Direct or Indirect, no way Shehu Sani wins. The man crossed the line recklessly and mindlessly with so many political players in Kaduna state. The fact that the automatic ticket to him was withdrawn at all, should tell one something.

In any case, voting is by Indirect/delegates method, 'finish.'

An average aboki, who is not online or does not have access to the internet, upon hearing this, will just laugh

But the deluded and misguided ones from the other side will think Atiku will win an eRection against Buhari cos of this AIT crap

Atiku and Saraki have always and will always be online sensations..because there are many miscreants like them online

A pragmatic post and reference worthy, this.

Johnnyessence:
why are you afraid of Ambode decamping to pdp. this is what I always say something about Tinubu godfatherism, he's only stubborn, Infact alot of Lagosians will never votes for that.

ModsareChevres:
Ambode isn't even decamping.

He's going to be APC candidate.

I swear, I've noticed these two are masters of swimming against the tide, each time getting nowhere, LOL.

Johnnyessence:
After it has been declared yesterday that the same Apc NWC declared the election null and void yesterday, now the results is now authentic. all of it are fraud. Ambode should just decamp to pdp that have structures in Lagos and let us see differences between Lagosians and Tinubu godfatherism.

LOL... Although he has now come out as a stark political learner (I heard he joined the APC only in July 2014, anyways) Ambode is probably much wiser than you, still. It's almost a given that Ambode would now ask people like you to please pocket your advice.

StRichard:
In 1999, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu was elected Governor of Lagos State. His then party, the Alliance for Democracy (AD) produced all the governors of the South West. By 2003, Tinubu was the only governor left in the AD. He was under pressure to decamp but he stayed. He built the party and it became stronger. For the eight years that he ruled Lagos, he hired several guys to work with him. I think he carefully picked them. Apart from using them to work in his government, he also groomed them for the future.

Eight years down the line, see where those Tinubu guys are today -
1. Prof Yemi Osinbajo, SAN was Tinubu's Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice. He is today, Nigeria's Vice President.
2. Rauf Aregbesola was Tinubu's Commissioner for Works. Today he is serving his second tenure as Governor of Osun State.
3. Babatunde Raji Fashola, SAN was Tinubu's Chief of Staff and successor in office. He is today Nigeria's Minister of Power, Works and Housing.
4. Alhaji Lai Mohammed was Tinubu's first Chief of Staff. He is today, Nigeria's Minister of Information
5. Babatunde Fowler was appointed by Tinubu as Chairman of the Lagos State Internal Revenue Service. Today, he is the Executive Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service.

At the National Assembly, there are countless "Tinubu boys" who have occupied and are still occupying seats till today. Since 1999, the Tinubu camp has produced almost 98% of the members of the National Assembly from Lagos State. Forget politics, this man is a political enigma.

Rewind to 1999, I am sure most of us have forgotten the names of the People who were elected Governors then...

Some of them have gone out of circulation. Some are gasping for breath politically. Indeed, most of them are no longer relevant today. Who still remembers Mbadinuju of Anambra State, Jolly Nyame of Taraba, Mohammed Lawal of Kwara, Segun Osoba of Ogun, Attahiru Bafarawa of Sokoto, Achike Udenwa of Imo, Victor Attah of Akwa Ibom, Orji Uzor Kalu of Abia? That one has lost two consecutive senatorial elections. But Tinubu has not only managed to remain extremely relevant, he has continued to control Lagos politics 100%. Not only that, he manages to carry his boys along and today they occupy critical positions in our national life.

Take it or leave it, Tinubu is today, Nigeria's most powerful politician. It didn't just happen by chance. He worked very hard for it. Very very hard. The hallmark of a true leader is not just the ability to rule well but also the ability to nurture and groom his associates. MY TAKE: 'If you are lonely at the top, then something is wrong somewhere.

The most successful business you can venture into is building people like you (Human resources). Start that MENTORSHIP today, because there is no success without successor.

This is reference material, and fully quoted as such. Thanks for penning/outing it, StRichard.

park well I was at the there and I have first hand information. ambodes supporters were not allowed to vote. there we were chased out of the venue.

Soso990240:
... If Ambode is not performing to Lagos Standard, then why are Lagosians not backing another candidate from another party?

This is really funny. So, once party members are dissatisfied with the performance of a person they helped put in office, they should start 'backing another candidate from another party?' Politics - along with Party Loyality - doesn't work that way, my friend. If people were to play politics the way you've advocated here, they'd end up having neither an identity nor a stake-hold anywhere. Simple.

That, in fact, is the key reason most 'cross-carpeters' don't last that long in their latest 'homes.'
