I just understood why she refused to donate the $7million she promised to give out to charity.
It's her back up plan should she lose the case.
Now she has more than half of Johnny's $13m. Remaining $6m.

elon musk her bf will give her

I've just watched the verdict from the Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard defamation case.

Johnny Depp was awarded 10 million dollars in compensatory damager and 5 million dollars in punitive damages against Amber Heard.
Amber Heard was awarded 2 million dollars in compensatory damages and 0 dollars in punitive damages against Johnny Depp.

So basically, Amber Heard lost the case and will need to pay $13 million to Johnny Depp.

Do the same with 2015 when Tinubu became an ally of Buhari let us see.

do it yourself and show us.

Hardmirror I know you as a gambler hence you understand that it doesn't matter if Liverpool had more shots on target than Realmadrid what counts is the score line.

My dear brother, what you consider as a mere 1 million votes would have been a disservice to Buhari assuming the counted against him but in favour of Gej even with that 'marginal difference'. Do you agree?

2011, pdp had 22 million votes, acn had 2 million votes and cpc had 12million votes. Add tinubus 2million to that of Buhari, that is 14 million votes for Buhari and still 22million for gen. I am using these figures since you want us to build from the fact that tinubu controlled sw votes. We have added the whole acn votes of tinubu to that of buhari and yet he does not still win. That shows you that the problem for Buhari was not buhari himself but pdp he was contesting against. The breakup of pdp won Buhari the election and not tinubu

bobby007:
yes

I hope he gets well soon. All the best sir

Softmirror:
Oh am so sorry, I meant 2011. Thank you for the correction. Well below is the statistics with regards to the Southwest in 2011 elections. It was the same Buhari vs the same Gej. So what happened in 2015 that produces a totally different results for the same candidates with reference to South West. The SouthEast have never voted in favour of Buhari till date.

subtract the numbers from 2015 election, it is still not significant as you are assuming. Barely 2million votes. With all the issues pdp was having then, Buhari's result would have been even better. Pdp would still win southwest but would it have been more than 1million votes?

That is what I said, tinubu will have his osun, Edo, Lagos , and key people in different states.

He has nothing to lose, it is better to be a regional champion than being in a farm, as popular as buhari his, how many people does he influence into position in the north?

Your guess is as good as mine.

Head or tail, tinubu will always win, people hate him because he is a serial winner.

Why do you think even opposition come to him to seek for anointing, if not that he is contesting all this yeye politicians would have turn his house to small Mecca, true or false?

politicians visit even kings that have no political relevance

which edo? Only lagos is sure for tinubu. Infact if not for apc being at the presidency, tinubu would have lost all except lagos long time ago

Softmirror:
But did GEJ, on the platform of PDP win the South West when he contested in 2009?

2009?

Donshegxy10:
No, it has everything to do with TINUBU, you don't know that politics is more than just voting, all those things lai Mohammed was always speaking in the news men, social media packaging, the way buhari was packaged for Nigerians, who do you think spear headed it.

Tinubu is a strategist even the opposition always give him credit for his understanding of Nigerian politics.

Even myself I was scared to vote for buhari because of his dictatorship tendencies and his docile disposition in the 80s, if not for TINUBU many people in the south would not have voted for buhari.

same propaganda tinubu is still using to stay relevant. The man is hyped beyond what he is truly worth.

[quote author=Softmirror post=113375164][/quote]2009?

Donshegxy10:
He will continue to be relevant in South west has he has always been.

The question should be where does it leave buhari?

Bubu will be in daura katsina state attending to his cows.

So tell me who will be the biggest loser

it leaves buhari where he had always been. And it leaves tinubu only relevant in sw or should I say lagos because he is losing sw gradually

Alary:
He is not the one abi ? Then why you people then heap all the blames and inadequacy of APC on him and him alone.

people doing that are silly. Why not blame buhari

Seun:
did I say something wrong? pls explain.

no. You made me watch game of thrones now you want me to watch star wars too

Donshegxy10:
I honestly think your hatred is not allowing you to see the politics of 2015 clearly, if ACN had won south west in 2015 and buhari got his usual votes in South west, it would have been game over for him as usual because Jonathan would have cruised to victory.

fine. Gej cruise to victory. Where does it leave tinubu?

Donshegxy10:
You are funny, are you just talking for talking sake, if he failed in South west as he always does, how will he meet the national spread.

Yes ACN would have won south West which also means that buhari will get his usual 5% from the south west and PDP will get over 40% in the south west which automatically will give power to Jonathan.

Don't forget that apart from getting highest number of votes which buhari has never done before, meeting up with the national spread is key, and there is no way buhari can do so by losing in South east, south east and south west, if not for TINUBU, buhari presidency would have been a dream that never sees the light of the day.

Remember that the plot failed in 2011, you think buhari is dunce to come back begging for TINUBU's help?

Giving anyone the ticket without the support of tinubu will be the biggest mistake of APC.

Consider my point with an open mind not from a place of hatred.

buhari was not going to get 5% I am yoruba and I live in lagos. I remember at that time, yorubas were ready to give him a chance and it had nothing to do with tinubu

Episode 3 is out. Beware of spoilers below.

I think the second sister might be the chinese looking Inquisitor. The black one is definitely the third sister:

this man sha. Well the series has taken the world by storm. Would come around to watching it eventually.

Donshegxy10:
Sadly he has never gotten 25 percentage in South west until TINUBU came on board.

he did not need it. ACN would have ensured that gej never won sw anyway.

Donshegxy10:
Let us be open minded here, narrowly is not the issue, this is a region where buhari has never gotten up to 25% in all of his running.

It may be narrow but he won, if south west has voted the way they has always voted , just like how South South and south east did, buhari where not be here today.

I repeat if not for TINUBU's vote in the south west Jonathan would have won easily.

Politics is about aligning with a region or more to garner their votes.

TINUBU BROUGHT HIS SOUTH WEST VOTES TO THE TABLE, voted that has eluded buhari for years.

are you saying if tinubu did not align with Buhari, ACN wont present a candidate? Now imagine if tinubu had their candidate, wont that candidate take out of the sw votes that would have gone to gej? So buhari would still win without tinubu. Tinubu used Buhari and not the other way round

Softmirror:
My point is to try to understand your point of perspective altogether. I believe that by asking you questions things will get clearer through deductions from how you choose to answer them. You have said the bolded about Tinubu, I agree with you that Tinubu's influence was very much limited to the SW even though lots of politicians from the North have spoken so well about how he has play a role in them being politicians. Wasn't Buhari's influence very much limited to the North or he had a greater influence in the SW than Tinubu so much that he would have won his forth time contesting against a "collapsing PDP"?

Or the North was just enough like he did already have guaranteed votes from the North?

buhari would most likely have won without tinubu. He did not need to win the SW. You underestimate the influence Buhari had in southwest. There was empathy for him already because of Idiagbon. I remember how the elderly people spoke very well about Buhari as a good leader that does not tolerate nonsense. My parents and many elderly people sang his praises already not because of tinubu. If tinubu had presented another candidate, ACN would have come third again. The SW votes would go into 3 places, buhari did not need to win sw. Tinubu's party would have cut out of GEJs votes in southwest naturally. There was no way for Gej to win SW anyway.

votes sw gave Buhari in 2015 was very marginal. Look at the figures.

Donshegxy10:
He does not need to get half of buhari's vote, all he needed to do is to influence his people in a region where buhari has always fail.

That should not be difficult for you to understand.

how big was his influence? You need to look at the numbers. He could not even win lagos convincingly. It was just a narrow escape.

Beolly:
You guys will sit in the corner of your house and decide to hate one man because he booted out your favorite candidate in 2015.

buhari was my candidate in 2015. Tinubu did not boot gen out. That is a lie that has been spread to make tinubu look bigger than he is. Same tinubu could never get half the votes Buhari was getting in all elections before 2015

YeyeGbami:
It is what it is, if e no make sense people no go dey rush am.

people have been rushing lagos before 1960. Why are we assuming no person could have performed better than tinubu and his boys? That assumption makes no sense.

I intentionally had to create a new moniker so that my questions may be answered without it having a negative effect on our long term relationship on NL.

Am curious to know why Buhari contested 3 times and losing despite the massive votes he gets from the North. What did the North do differently that made him win the fourth time?

the fracture in PDP played the biggest role in 2015. A lot happened that were bigger than the contribution of tinubu. The party conflict was really bad for pdp even in most southwest states such as lagos, indo and ogun. Without the collapse of pdp, apc did not stand a chance. You must always put into consideration that tinubu never did well at the national level, infact his influence was badly limited to sw until very recently. The point of this thread if to debunk the narrative that tinubu made buhari president.

Even Atiku and obj decamped. It would have been a miracle for gen to win

ChoCho54:
And what's Lagos today? El dorado?

lagos has all it takes to be a true mega city like joburg, but for where tinubu has turned it to his private business.

bobby007:
check ur dad first if he's more healthy than Tinubu

I have checked him. He is more healthy. Thanks for the concern. Is your own dad sick?

bobby007:
are u his medical doctor

yes sir.

Misterone:
only fools make comments like you just did. Tinubu spent his time campaigning across Nigeria, paid a US consultant to whitewash buhari from being dictator to a democrat, donate his hard earned money, private jet, media conglomerate and connections to buhari. You guys should know that in 2015 buhari was sick and had no money, not even money to buy nomination form. It was Tinubu that was crisscrossing the length and breadth of Nigeria to campaign for him. Now you can type rubbish with your phone.

many of the points you made here are valid. He truly made money available. But tinubu desperately needed Buhari. He had done all he could before in 2007 and 2011 and still did not make a dent in national politics. Tinubu was struggling himself until he had Buhari. Look at the results yourself.
