Opposition is the oil for democracy. Too many other saner people still see Tinubu as an illegitimate president judging from the most deceptive and most bastardized election process which brought Tinubu to power. The Judicial process is not something saner country's judiciary can touch even with a long spoon.
How many 3rd world countries still use manual collation of votes results?
Which other country's court would not ask the INEC Chairman: if your transmission system developed a problem, why didn't you suspend the transmission/collation process momentarily, and restore the system, thereafter, continue the transmission/collation process?
Oga,if electronic transmission fails,you simply deploy manual

Progress of one's country? What progress did Nigeria make after its ruling APC through the INEC Chairman appointed by APC government, threw away the ultramodern system for collation of voting results, but resorted to PRIMITIVE and NEVER TRANSPARENT manual collation of vote results to produce a loser as president of Nigeria last presidential election? All these after the head of the election umpire swore before the public that no other method except the system of electronic transmission of vote results would be used to conduct the general elections of 2023 in Nigeria.
APC stole the presidential election and didn't border about the credibility problems it created for INEC and democracy in Nigeria.
Stole from who? Why are you so bitter? Was obi going to win

I have more credibility that you master Tinubu. Why won't you go with the government of fraud and misinformation.

How is the inflation treating you.
It seems the inflation is biting you hard son hence you bringing it up.tinubu will rule till 2031.
By the way, information on ethnicities is not about Tinubu or any particular president but Nigeria official records even before independence.infact,even international organizations corroborate it.you have no moral right to talk here son since you claimed atiku won the north and you don't even know how ethnographic infos are gotten,you blindly think it's from tinubu.you people from that side always overreach and over do.better shut up and allow people from the disputed areas to talk

Don't be deceived too bro. Gobir and Gobirawa have always been Hausa. You can't talk of Hausa historically without mentioning the famous King of Gobir, Bawa Jan Gwarzo. Hausa like every other language has different accents that's why the Hausa in Zamfara and Kano slightly differ. It's common with Yoruba, Igbo and Fulfulde.
It is like saying egbas,ijebus,aworis,ijeshas are not yorubas or ngwas,aros or mbaise aren't Igbos

no. Don't be deceived by some of what you have on the net. they may have lost their tongue to Hausa but they have a tongue and facial mark as identity . They are called gwogobiri for male and gwogobara female. There are also Bussawa, Dukawa, Gungawa, Kambari, Zarma, Dakarkari. These ethnic groups ain't originally hausas, but now hausa speakers.
Gobir was an Hausa territory before.besides a lot of tribes that are now igbos,yorubas,ijaws were originally a separate entity

You mean the president is the alpha and the Omega of APC? He dictates when to hire and fire the party chairman and no more the whims and caprices of the party executive? The last time I checked Mr. Oshiomhole has no problem with Buhari when his ward suspended him. Please is APC a one man party? Please teach us something.
Well,tinubu is more or less the owner of apc.besides,the president is usually alpha and Omega of his party.if you are deep in APC,you will know tinubu is APC and vice versa.
Buhari case is different.he is not a core politician and was never interested in APC affairs.oshiomhole was and is still an ally of tinubu so buhari was neutral and besides buhari liked obaseki.but in this case,ganduje is tinubu best friend up north.the chairmanship was given to him as compensation for not getting minister.nothing is removing him except tinubu permits

Then you are as well wrong for putting the igbos at 34m when wikipedias figure is around 37m.

Even the fulani population is ambiguous from wikipedia.
Fulani is clearly more.outside Nigeria,igbos don't have much presence in West Africa

The Chambaa are not same with Bachama, they are clearly different tribe.

The people you call Fulani are not Fulani and did not accept to be called Fulani. Most people you call Fulani are Hausa and other small minor tribes, but because they are Muslims, you call them Fulani.
You are not getting me.i am getting my sources from government and the Internet not referring to people.all sources say fulanis are the largest tribe in adamawa and gombe and my findings corroborate this so don't create confusion here.
Nobody is classifying anyone wrongly.fintiri and bindowo are muslims but no one calls them fulanis.atiku is not a Fulani but he sees himself as fulani

This Fulani dolt with the usual gibberish. Always spewing gibberish. Fulani isn't indigenous to Nigeria. Something you need to sink into your brain if you've got any..
If fulanis are not indigenous,then no tribe is indigenous to Nigeria as all of us migrated here

The fulanis may be ubiquitous in west africa, but they certainly do not constitute the 2nd largest ethnicity in the subregion. The hausas still outstrip the fulanis in west africa. The major tribes in Nigeria are the largest in west africa by population, though only only the hausa and yoruba tribes find indigeneship in other countries apart from Nigeria.

Assimilation in the north has made it a bit difficult to seperate the hausa affiliated tribes from the fulani, but the fulani seem to dominate narratives more even though the 1st fulani president came in 19 yrs after independence.
According to wikipedia,the fulanis are about 38 mil in West Africa while I put the Igbos at 34 mil

Where did you leave the Chamba people, notably found in Adamawa, Taraba and Borno state, although you are a bit right with your list but the Fulani does not have the number, most people you call Fulani are not really Fulani, and when you talk about the NE, they are not that much like they are i n the NW.
The chambas are same as BACHAMA or BWATIYE na.oga,since the people claim Fulani,allow them.

Stop saying what you don't know, that Fulani are all over West Africa doesn't mean they're more..

What's their population in those countries?..

Apart from Guinea, Fulani is not the largest group in any country.. And even Guinea is just 14m.

Hope you know Nigeria population is larger than the rest West Africa countries combine?..
Ok,they are the third largest after HAUSAS and yorubas

You quoted out of point. I only reacted to the comment of that man that says since Ganduje doesn't have problem with the president, governors and senators, hence he cannot be removed. Please who told him that? I am not referring to the authenticity of the suspension for now. The authenticity is left for the court to adjudicate upon if it finally gets to court.
Nothing is getting to court as the authenticity of the suspension,the law is clear.he is right,except the president wants him out,nothing can remove him
