The number one behind Buhari in the last APC presidential primary election, let the game start, customer daada niiii

This is the beginning

Even in his state Saraki has lost it, the only place right now is to contest for any vacant governor seat in the southeast

Even in his state Saraki has lost it, the only place right now is to contest for any vacant governor seat in the southeast

So his security stopped you from taking his picture? lie from the land of Biafra

The only place saraki can win is his sitting room and certain part of the country where Buhari got 5% of their vote

oju ole reeeeee

[quote author=Ecstasy154 post=70821089]The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has assigned its first task to the Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki, as well as the governors of Sokoto and Benue states, Aminu Tambuwal and Samuel Ortom.

Saraki was appointed by the PDP to chair its National Campaign Council for the governorship election in Osun State while Tambuwal and Ortom are members of the council.

The council, which also has other PDP governors and Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu as members, will be inaugurated by the party’s leadership on Monday in the nation’s capital.

“The National Working Committee (NWC) of our great party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has approved the composition of the National Campaign Council for the September 22, 2018, Osun State Governorship Election.

“The Campaign Council will be inaugurated on Monday, September 3, 2018, by 2pm at the Legacy House, Abuja,” the party said in a statement.

PDP is indirectly telling us where their presidential ticket is going

Explain the more

saraki the new maradona

Probably the best candidate PDP can present if they really have intention of unseating the daura man, I don't know any other candidate that has what it take to pull down the wall of lies erected by Buhari and APC

If you touch that cow or anything happens to that cow Buhari won't take it easy for Tinubu, Ambode and the lagosians in general, I have warned you before Buhari will react now

Ndonu101:
what if after all these meetings Akpabio decide not to defect?

Good observation

izzou:


I think the Ballon d'Or of politics should be given to Bukola Saraki

The guy left with every single soul in his state save the spy he left for the APC to masturbate on

Akpabio should have established himself as a mini god in politics before decamping. But then, what do I know?

a wailer has just been spotted

Recess for two months and alert of at least 30m for those dormant months, what a joke nation

This is getting serious

In sincerity, on the issue of the Senate president and the minority leaders, the biggest wailers are PDP based on the fact that Saraki has been at the loggerhead with the executive and it has been an open secret that Saraki will defect but the defection of the other guy was not anticipated and it caught the wailers off guard

For how long are they going to tell Nigerians the truth behind her NYSC saga or how long does it take to confirm ordinary certificate issue? Nigeria we hail thee

your opinion

This is what you get from most Arab nations

we are still watching the film

The synonym of politics is selfishness

But Saraki's own was bravery, hypocrisy of the highest order, we are even told that it takes a plate of rice for bro Femi Fani to sing your praise

what should he say, must he be shouting just like any other rogue? even sheu sani confirmed that it took Tinubu, oshiomole and Balarebe musa to stop his defection

Magichand:
Jim Nwobodo, a former old Anambra governor, has revealed some events that happened during the Atlanta 1996 Olympics.

A former governor of old Anambra State, Chief Jim Nwobodo, relives the victory of the Super Eagles in Atlanta Olympics of 1996 and how he saved Kanu Nwankwo from Coach Westerhof.
The Super Eagles won the gold medal in the Atlanta Olympics in 1996 when you were the Sports Minister.

Can you share with us the story of what happened then?
They (Super Eagles) beat Japan, beat Brazil and also beat other big teams. That was the time we had wonderful players. You can only know the best team when they go out of the country and play the best teams in the world. Mikel Obi is playing in China and there are other young boys like Alex Iwobi, Ahmed Musa, Kelechi Iheanacho and many others.


There is one thing I like about Nigerian football. Nigerians are football lovers, there is no doubt about that and football has the ability to unite Nigerians.
I remember very well the 1996 event when we played in Atlanta Olympics. Nigeria was a pariah nation. The day we reached the climax was the day Nigeria met Brazil. We had a very strong team, those who were determined to do their best to make Nigeria proud.


Two things happened that day. We got into the field and, in the first half, they (Brazil) were leading Nigeria by 3-1. I sat by the side of then – FIFA President, Joao Havelange, a Brazilian lawyer, businessman and athlete who served as the 7th FIFA President from 1974 to 1998 and I told him we will beat Brazil and he started laughing because we were two goals down.


Half time break pep talk
During the half time break, I went to our boys in the dressing room and called them one by one, starting with Sunday Oliseh, then Daniel Omokachi, Kanu Nwankwo, Jay Jay Okocha, Victor Ikpeba, Celestine Babayaro and others. I urged them not to disgrace me and Nigerians and they assured me that they will beat Brazil. I then called the coach, Clemens Westerhof, who complained that Kanu was not playing well and that he would remove him.

I ordered him not to remove the young man. I threatened to sack him if he removed Kanu. He complied with my order and allowed Kanu to play in the second half. In the second half, Okocha scored the second goal, making it 2-3; another goal was scored by Kanu to make it 3-3 and second half ended. In the extra time, we had what is called the golden goal then and, five minutes after, Kanu scored the golden goal and the match ended. Everyone was surprised but God was at work and I heard Him (God) when I said Kanu should not be removed.

Kanu became the man of the match. We were excited and many whites and many Africans, who did not know about the Dream Team, started painting themselves in green white green. I was also told that families that were not in talking terms for ten years reconciled because of that match.


Sweet victory
Then – Head of State, General Sani Abacha, who was not in the habit of answering telephone calls, called almost all of us, including my wife. He did not stop there. He had to wait for us alongside some state governors for two days under the rain at the City Gate, Abuja when we returned to Nigeria and that was what that victory did to Nigeria. What a sweet victory!


The second thing that happened was that Chioma Ajunwa told me that she and other Nigerian athletes were yet to be paid their 300 dollars per day on the day she would compete. I saw reason with her but I told her it was a very small amount. I promised her that I will give her 10,000 dollars if she won a gold medal, she was shocked. I advised her to go for the long jump if she was good at that. Her first jump earned her gold medal for Nigeria and I gave her 10,000 dollars. This thing is about leadership and encouraging people around you.


So, sport, in itself, is something that, if properly developed, will bring the country together. Look at what sport is doing in the world today. If you are a sports administrator, you are known all over the world. FIFA President is bigger that any President in the world. My worry is that Nigeria has not given proper attention to sports.
What is your rating of journalists in Nigeria?
Nigeria has the freest press in the world; journalists write anything and get away with it and they hold people accountable and nobody can fight them. In Nigeria, I can say that we have a very free and strong press. I really don’t see anything wrong with what they are doing, except that they should always get their facts right.


What is your take on employers owing workers?
Any employer that owes his workers should not expect them to be loyal to him. Such could expose workers to temptation because they have to take care of themselves and their families. It is not good to owe your workers; whether they are journalists, footballers, civil servants, you don’t need to owe them. Workers deserve their wages. So it is not good at all. You should do everything possible not to owe your workers.


What about state governments owing workers?
I mean it’s unfair. It is ungodly and unchristian. If you don’t pay workers, what do you want them to do? In fact, when I was governor, I didn’t have anything as salary arrears. Throughout my stay in Government House, I never owed anybody for one month because one thing you do as a leader is to pay your workers before any other thing. That is the first charge and, from there, you motivate them to work harder.


So, any governor that owes workers for months is not fit to be a governor. Although, some governors have said that the problem about payment of salaries stems from the many problems confronting them, that argument does not hold water because you can still sit down and arrange your budget to make the recurrent less than the capital. You give capital budget priority over recurrent.

old man ahhhhhjjjj, weterhoff left after the world cup in USA Bonfre Jo was the coach

Timekeeper:
It just crossed my mind.. The likes of daddy G. O, Bishop Oyedepo and other great men of God. Who do you think they will Vote for in 2019 election due to their recent complains about the current government. Do u think they will stil vote Apc amidst security issue and for osinbajo sake or they vote Pdp... Personally for me I don't think I will Vote.. So nairalanders, who will you vote for in 2019 presidential election?

Cc: lalasticlala

count oyedepo out, he has never voted APC and never will he do it, but for any other I can't really say

9jatriot:
When candidates who are expected to contest the PDP presidential candidates are mentioned, only the likes of Atiku, Kwankwanso, Tambuwa and Saraki come up.

Yet, Ayo Fayose has never missed any opportunity before now to tell anyone who cares to listen that he would be contesting for the presidential election in 2019. He has even boasted on more than one occasion that he would be replacing President Buhari. On all of these occasions he was ignored by the media team of APC.

In an attempt to achieve his aim, he tried to hijack the PDP in connivance with Wike by installing Sheriff who turned out to be a bone in the neck.

Since he lost the gubernatorial election in Ekiti State where he was effectively the candidate as against the real candidate, his party the PDP seems to have completely ignored him. PDP is now more preoccupied with courting the likes of Saraki, Tambuwa and Kwankwanso these days, leaving the man who took it upon himself to continually insult Buhari to stand on his own.

He has become so irrelevant that even when Wike went to convince Saraki to join PDP, Fayose was not invited.

Power truly is transient, even the wise struggle to use it properly. It's worse for the unwise.

.

I suppose the presidential ticket is zoned to the north? fear north

Mr fayose, riding on we are watching the film

This is a big issue and a very delicate one which needs to be handled with utmost care, my brother, this issue should have be sorted out right before you married this woman because this type of issue can scatter a harmonious home but since it has been left until now you just need be a man and tale the girl into your house, I know it is not easy but help your wife and that young girl and pls find a way to defend your wife before your family, this is when and where the reality of your
I've for her will be tested.


I believe this your story is true but if it is a film you have done a well done script

OfficialAPCNig:
These are high profiling signings. But between the two, who are more valuable?

Saraki delivered an entire state to PDP. An entire State Executive Council, the entire State Assembly, entire Emirate Council, entire LGA Councils, entire Former Ministers, entire APC grassroot structure, 14 senators, and member of APC's NWC.

We don't know what Akpabio would be submitting this week, but we know he can't deliver:

1. Entire State Executive Council
2. Entire State Assembly
3. Entire Council of Traditional Rulers
4. Entire L.G.A council
5. Others

If he can't defect with at least the Deputy Governor like Kwankwanso, then he is an abandoned child.

Whatever vote he can gain for Buhari in 2019, Kwara would more than offset.

Saraki over Akpabio any time, any day.

Other Matters:

Anybody who can enter Sokoto in a convoy can pull as much crowd as Wammako did, unless you have never been to the North before.

After Zaria, Sokoto has the highest population of Shia moslems.

An alliance of Tambuwal, Dasuki family, Shagari family and Shia moslems would defeat Wammako.

If you have not been to Sokoto before, please argue with your dead ancestors.

Anyway, the plan is to split Northern votes as much as possible unlike in 2015.

Insha Allah, 2019 all terrorists and their apologists would stand trial for all the blood sheds in Nigeria.

Never again shall we allow terrorists and their apologists near our corridors of power again.
