We are not interested in the most cheapest one amongst them.

We sane Nigerians want Tinubu to return the Certificate given to him to the rightful owner.

We cannot allow Tinubu and his demented urchins to take someone's Mandate and get away with it 💯

The meeting of some Nigerian billionaire businessmen, notably, Aliko Dangote, Tony Elumelu, and Femi Otedola with Bola Tinubu, an illegitimate president-elect, is as insensitive as it is provocative. That is impunity gone too far. As if the show of shame lacks in folly, Mr. Elumelu—the poster vainglory of the Nigeria’s shady banking system—had the affrontery to share a video of his family hosting the number one enemy of the Nigerian youths. What an eye-sore!! What a social miasma!!

The same Tony Elumelu is alleged to have weaponized his huge influence at the United Bank for Africa (UBA) to morph up the millions of scarce new notes which Tinubu deployed to rig the 2023 presidential election. This brazen sleaze took place at the time the ordinary customers of the bank were sleeping 24 x7 at its premises, begging to withdraw a few naira to feed their families.

The immediate consequence has been a move by some people to boycott the UBA where Mr. Elumelu serves as chairman. A boycott is commendable and ought to be extended to Dangote and Otedola businesses, as well. Yet, such move is not as troubling as what could follow.

The fact of the matter is that the Nigerian masses have not only become wiser, but they also act wiser. The apparent endorsement of a sham election by these billionaire businessmen is not being viewed as business as usual. The ordinary Nigerian people now know their true enemies, and they are very angry.

The masses are angry that their long-awaited opportunity to produce a leader of their choice is being sabotaged by corrupt politicians in cahoots with their cohorts in the private sector. The anger is most merited because even as the country has hit the rock bottom under President Muhammadu Buhari, these double-dealing mercenaries are colluding to foist a successor, who is destined to be worse than his predecessor.

The most provoking is that Dangote, Elumelu, Otedola and co are keenly aware that Tinubu never hesitated to make it known his intention to continue the Buhari policies that rendered the country hopeless. They are very aware that Tinubu is an invalid who no longer exhibits the physical nor the mental capacity to lead a nation like Nigeria. They are also aware that the man is the country’s shadiest politician ever to stand a presidential election, let alone winning one.

Combine the above with a myriad of evidence that points to the gospel truth that the former Lagos State governor did not win the presidential election. Follow that with the fact that the plot to impose a corrupt kingpin cum drug lord on the Nigerian people only goes to further damage the country’s image around the world.

Despite these existential misgivings which are bound to worsen the condition of the ordinary Nigerians worldwide, the money bags are hellbent on backing Bola Ahmed Tinubu as president-elect. But the reason for the do-or-die support is not far-fetched. It is an open secret. Institutionalized corruption has been the sole raison d’être for the success of the respective business empires of these tycoons. They simply want to stay the status quo of lawlessness that made it possible for them to accumulate huge wealth at the expense of the poor masses. Thus, they are resisting the change that a vast majority of Nigerian people voted for.

But, again, the Nigerian masses have become wiser. They recognize that the attempt to impose Tinubu is an existential threat. They now recognize that there must be consequences for bad behavior. They can now relate to an admonition by the then sitting Minister of Transport, Rotimi Chubuike Amaechi, that Nigerian leaders have continued to misbehave because the followers do not “stone” them. But the most relative and most instructive is the genius of a former American president, John F. Kennedy, who said that “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.”

The point of this matter is short and simple. Barring the desired change from the status quo, a mass revolution of global consequence is imminent in Nigeria. Commonsense dictates that the masses—home and abroad—are merely waiting for the outcome of the court cases challenging the sham election. And, as recent events have shown, any “violent revolution”, as Kennedy had admonished, will not be a conflict between the tribes or between the Christians and Muslims, as Mr. Bola Ahmed Tinubu would wish. The common enemy are the ruling elite and their influential sympathizers.

Darkness has nothing to do with light and growth.
When heaven and earth are against you, you will see the signs.

Tinubu should quickly do the right thing to avoid shame. Very soon it will be too late to avoid shame.
He should quickly handover the mandate to the rightful winner of the election without much ado now.
He will not be President.

With this general election, I must admit that a lot has changed in terms of my viewpoint. Even among those who are educated, tribalism and hypocrisy are Nigeria's biggest problems.

I had a preconceived impression about the Ibos before the election that they were the most tribally inclined people on earth, but I was completely wrong. Although they may occasionally fight with other tribes, they are not a bunch of hypocrites.

There is no group of people more tribalistic than the Yorubas. Simply because a candidate is your brother doesn't make it wrong to vote for him. Jonathan had a similar treatment from the South South. But concealing it behind the pretense that he built Lagos, I guess that stinks. Lagos already existed before The Yoruba Candidate entered politics. They "Say omo-Ibo" go back to Anambra when you attempt to engage them in intellectual conversations. Individuals work hard to make money; nobody is paid by the state, and neither are we given free rides or water. Just ask the Yoruba candidate's supporters what he did while he was a governor, and they'll start discussing initiatives that other governors have undertaken. And guess what he did not get along with these governors, like BRF and AA for instance, he even fought against their reelection.

He suddenly made a route for them. Why does his supporters give him credit to the governors of Lagos State but not to the governors he puts on other Yoruba states who perform appallingly?? such as the former governor of Osun and the current governor of Ogun State?

A dummy would do well as Lagos Governor. Lagos already had one of the biggest economy in Africa before 1998

They began playing the tribal card "Our Lagos" as soon as it was clear that people could see through their lies. the same Lagos that was built by Niger-Delta Oil. Even the elites exhibit hypocrisy when they start uttering "Yoruba ronu" and "Omo-ale." Imagine for a second that the Yoruba candidate came from a different tribe; the world wouldn't have heard enough.

Brilliant thinkers, like Wole Soyinka, would have spoken up and even funded protests to stymie the candidacy, but since he is their son, everyone has been silent.

What about the religious leaders?

In the church, some of them had already established a political department, but everything changed when their favorite candidate lost the primary. The Church has now adopted a neutral stance after initially showing signs of active participation. Currently, they are idly perched and using parables to communicate.

The Yorubas are the only tribe I've observed that is overtly tribalistic. That is complete.

Their leaders are doing this by appealing to their ingrained tribalism. Nobody can conceal it. Although not all Yorubas are like way, this is my honest assessment of them. This is not meant as a slight against the decent, at peace, and wise Yoruba people. Nigeria is for everyone, and this is merely a belligerent cry to look above ingrained tribalism.
