The office NSA has access to most sophisticated and most encrypted security communication gadgets and it is absolutely difficult to tap Nuhu Ribadu's phone unless a much more advanced technology is used, which I doubt is accessible to anybody in Nigeria at present.

FG should not create impression that NSA's communications was actually tapped by engaging El Rufai and giving him attention. They should resist the urge punish El Rufai by taking him to court with the world watching. It sends negative message to the world particularly US that high-level discussions with Nigerian officials are not safe.

Simply and quietly do a thorough sweep of all communication systems in and around office of NSA to reassure integrity.

EponObi:
The Tinubu is know, if he's not in collusion with El-Rufai, will not arrest him but will use the situation to his own political advantage. El-Rufai just handed an intercontinental ballistic missile to the APC, Akpabio and his caucus, the presidency, DSS, and ONSA.

I'm sure if Atiku knew El-Rufai will say this nonsense on national TV, he won't have visited him after his failed arrest at the airport.

EponObi:
I will assume this is an elaborate plot to justify the removal of the compulsory live transmission of election results from the electoral bill.

That's the only way I can make sense of this.

As an opposition, what good does the "revelation" about hacking the NSA offer El-Rufai himself and the ADC?

If the Senate and the presidency come out tomorrow to say the opposition is planning to hack the INEC servers during the election, how will the opposition deny it given the present situation?

People in the opposition should be weary of El-Rufai.

patrickcollins:
He is doing everything possible so he could be picked, don't know why Tinubu and the head of secret service is keeping quiet giving the national security concerns of such issues

ogascomax:
The document you shared is USA document not Nigeria. With that document itself the usage of the information or intent is what matters.

Tareq1105:
You've said it all. You know he talks too much and he thinks he's more intelligent than any other. Atiku brought hackers from Kenya in 2019 to hack INEC servers but they failed. They thought BVAS would be used to transmit results but none of such. Atiku even listed the hackers as witnesses at the Tribunal. I'm sure Tinubu would not sign that electoral law.

ogascomax:
He did not say he did. Someone did and he got the information from the person.

Antoeni:
Imagine What This Pork is Saying , Let Me See How You, Obi Cubana And Yul Edochie Will Stand Before Onitcha Main Market Traders And Tell Them To Vote For Tinubu

EponObi:
Peter Obi is in trouble.

He kept making grave mistakes left and right.

The first was running out of PDP to LP, instead of being Atiku's running mate in 2023.

The second was failing to restructure and strengthen LP after the election. If he did, there would be no reason running to ADC.

It's now becoming clear that Obi can't win the primaries in ADC. Atiku has a hold on the northern delegates and if Makinde comes in, Atiku will get the SW votes. Obi will be left with only delegate votes from SE.

And he is repeating the first mistake again - being too proud and big to run as Atiku's deputy.

Mind you, if Obi contest the ADC primaries and he loses, he can't contest primaries again in any party.

Obi is stuck. Then add the current mess Kwankwaso is in.

This is what happens when you don't work with logic but emotion.

EponObi:
Lol... It's not desperation. Makinde is actually smart.

If Atiku/Makinde happens and they win, Makinde will be well positioned to run for the presidency in 4 or 8 years, depending on how long Atiku lives. This is what Obi should have done in 2023. Now he's stressing himself over an ambition that has no pathway to victory.

hotseat:
So, all the kitikata in the battle for the soul of the party (PDP) would go down the drain just like that?

For Makinde who is currently a frontliner to clinch the PDP presidential ticket to go play second fiddle to Atiku in the ADC is a mark of desperation at its peak, if you ask me.

If this report turns out to be true, then politicians are truly chameleonic in character.

Chai!

Et tu Makinde?





@hotseat

epainos:
I know Obi/Kwakwanso ticket will face the Atiku issue, but not this. However, I am not that surprised because Senator Riley Moore confronted him on Twitter one time when he was trying to be smart with his tweets. Lol.

Everyone just wants to get to Aso Rock by any means. It's like Atiku saying he wanted Wike as his vice. That would be bad. Obi having Kwankwaso as VP. I think this is a bullet diverted from hitting Obi. Kwankwaso will mess up Obi.

So, what next for Obi? I keep saying this...if I was Obi, I wouldn't contest. Age is still on his side. Obi should take Jagaban's strategy, but the risk is that he may not be president, but he can become the most powerful politician in Igboland. Does he want that? I doubt it.

Honestly, I would take the risk and push for more transparency using tech. This direct transmission will cause so much changes. Yes, there will be technical issues, but court cases for 2027 will be different from 2023. Many senators will not return or will be kicked out by the court. And the winner of 2027 might easily be impeached. If Obi can just position hunself as a strong man, he may even get to Aso Rock earlier than he expects. But I guess he is really in a hurry.

If i was Obi, I would step back and find a weak VP for Atiku. Just like how it was so easy for Jagaban to crush Osibanjo. Lol.

Wickedtruths:
AMINDA is secretly gnashing his teeth.

E be like say the guy don run commot this forum. Him and those his yeye analysis he dey always pull out of his HAS, like say him get access to the front row.

AMINDA, where thou you? Your brake light, we seeth no more. Sannu. Yaya dai? Lafiya lau?

Mckraz01:
The way we reason ehh
Is aeroplane our problem?
Enugu residents are suffering from the excessive taxes this man has thrown on them, yet the money is to buy more plane for ppl who can only afford to pay the exorbitant fares.
To say the least he's trying on infrastructures but then life is becoming harder for residents
An average person can't afford rent
Businesses are bewitched
Take home pay cannot take anyone home again

E for build brewry too or buy bag of rice for his citizens na. See talk? Lmaooo

They know nothing. It's why they are pushing an incompetent Obi for presidency.

If Mbah save the money in a Nigerian bank, you for happy abi? Lol

I was even expecting to read "How much is a bag of rice"

kaludestiny10:
Some of you reason like toddlers and I'm not surprised. It may interest you to know that Alex Otti started from the scratch due to years of government failure in Abia state while MBA is consolidating on the developments on ground. You guys should be analytical in your submission.

Mtchew. No be only scratch. I guess Mbah started with ready made food. See flimsy excuse for the below mid governor. Lmaooo

He say he started from scratch. You for say starch.

This is the third year since he was elected. In less than a year, he's going for reelection; but hE sTarTEd frOM ScrATch.

We didn't hear this excuse when Tinubu started with a comatose economy.

If we place Soludo on the table too, they will say Otti sTarTEd frOM ScrATch again - 3 years into his tenure.

At what point will he stop sTarTiNg frOM ScrATch? After him don finish pasting bitumen on all street streets in Abia abi?

Obi nko? What's the excuse for his abysmal performance as Anambra governor? He sTarTEd frOM ScrATch too abi?

focus7:
Where's this Gov. Peter Mbah getting the money he's spending? He's just accomplishing one project after the other and the Igbos are not acknowledging him, but the dwarf in Abia who's doing nothing but giving them audio reports keeps getting their accolades.

EponObi:
Walahi, Obi can't lace the shoes of Mbah. Them no be mate at all.

Peter Mbah, Soludo, Dave Umahi - these are the guys SE should be pushing for the presidency. Not that empty head, who has nothing to show for his competence aside keeping state money in the bank and building a brewery.

If Mbah wants to run for presidency, the internet and the people will speak of his achievements. No need for "Go and Verify" and nonsense Vietnam Bangladesh China-went-back-to-China statistics. We are all witnessing him transforming and reshaping Enugu state in real time, with our korokoro eye.

That aside, Mbah is the perfect template, aside Lagos state governors, as to how Nigerian governors should be. He came in when Enugu was rooting away, rolled his sleeves, and cooked policies and ideas to catapult the state to the top. Within 3 years, Enugu was pushed to top ranking of the best states in Nigeria. Today Enugu ranks among the top in IGR generation. You can only achieve this when "you aren't lazy in structural thinking".

Peter Mbah is impressive. He is a thinker and a doer. It's no wonder Tinubu likes him a lot.



I see many of you hating on Peter Mbah because he's in APC. He started transforming Enugu when he was in PDP. I don't know what you guys are smoking. The funny thing is that most of you saying this are Igbo. So you hate the best performing governor in the your region and one of the best in Nigeria simply because he moved from PDP to APC? You can't be real. What happened to "we vote for the person not the party" you all parrot when Obi was still in the LP? Hypocrites!

This is what I wrote regards this same issue when he defected. You all rather prefer he is in ADC or LP and be an average governor like Otti, abi? LMAO
