Read your history, it is bound to repeat self, Same way the Christians were against Abiola & Kingibe in 1993.

After the Muslim Muslim ticket swept the election even defeating Alhaji Tofa in his home state of Kano, CAN had to go and beg General Babangida & The Military to cancel the election, lead by the likes of Olusegun Obasanjo & Co.

The only difference this time is that there is no military to beg.

Only Yoruba muslims are hyped about Tinubu's candidacy. Even the core northern muslims are not impressed.

The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, has embarrassed himself at a public event for the umpteenth time.

Naija News reports that Tinubu and party Chieftains stormed Yenagoa, the Bayelsa State capital on Thursday for the APC presidential campaign rally.

The former Governor of Lagos State while delivering his campaign promises to the residents of the state, mumbled his words as he tried to pronounce the word ‘technological’.

While some of the party chieftains kept a straight face, the sign language interpreter was left confused while another lady standing behind Tinubu laughed over the statement.

The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu on Thursday suffered another gaffe in Bayelsa during his campaign.

Tinubu, who has committed several blunders in the past during his speech, while making a speech, said it is time to recreate tourism and ‘technological up.’

Over to you @fkeyamo explain to the general public what your pay master is trying to say.

A foreigner at the World Cup in Qatar has sparked reactions online after making a mockery of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu’s gaffe at a recent campaign rally.

Naija News reports that Tinubu has been suffering a series of gaffes since his party officially kicked off its campaign rally ahead of the 2023 election.

While some concerned Nigerians advised the former Governor of Lagos State to talk less during campaign rallies others still claimed the gaffes are becoming annoying.

Tinubu became a topic of discussion online over a viral video of him speaking gibberish during the stakeholders meeting at Imo State last month.

The statement was tagged meaningless as many Nigerians tried to decode and interpret Tinubu’s words.

However, a Foreigner during the World Cup made a mockery of Tinubu’s gaffe alongside a man who is probably a Nigerian.

Some Nigerians reacted to the video.

The Labour Party (LP), presidential candidate, Mr. Peter Obi, has left many in shock as he politely but resolutely declined to accept an award given to him by a youth-based organisation in Enugu.


Obi, last Friday in Enugu, turned down the award at a one day conference on the theme: “Shaping the Future”, organised by a youth-based organisation, Boys Champions, held at the Base Events Centre, Enugu.

The LP flagbearer said, while declining the award, that he was an applicant seeking to lead Nigeria to a new dawn and for this reason would not accept any award or accolade until after the end of his tenure as the president of Nigeria, come 2027.

“When I finish as a president, I’ll come for the award. I am not going away, I am going to work with you. I am going to reject the award. I’ll only accept when I have finished,” he maintains.

The former Anambra state governor, said that Nigeria should be able to feed her citizens because she is endowed with enough arable land that can grow different types of crops for consumption and for export.

Talking about food sufficiency, Obi said that Niger State had vast land more than Netherlands yet the country feeds her citizens and even export food and wondered why Nigerians should suffer hunger.

According to him, voted into power, states will no longer be waiting for allocations from the Federation Accounts but should be bouyant and cater for their needs,” he opined saying that next year’s election would determine whether Nigeria would be or not.

“Next year is existential election. The election will determine whether there will be a Nigerian or not. We need a good driver to drive Nigeria.

“Next year’s election, do not vote based on tribe or religion. Vote for competence. It is not about tribe or religion, let’s rebuild Nigeria,” he pleads.

Founder/Director of Boys Champions, Noel Ifeanyi Alumona, who said that his organisation’s vision is to encourage the youths to maximize their potentials, urged them to be alive to their responsibilities as Nigeria citizens.

Alumona urged them not only to vote in the forthcoming general elections but to vote competent and capable leaders that can turn the country around in the right direction.

He described the youths as the leaders of tomorrow and challenged them to engage our leaders constructively to deliver on their mandate.

“You are the leaders of tomorrow. The future is in your hands. You are the change agents that Nigeria needs,” he said.

Sani Mahmoud Sha’aban, an All Progressives Congress (APC) gubernatorial aspirant in Kaduna State in the 2023 election has finally dumped the ruling party.

Sani, who is President Muhammadu Buhari’s in-law lost the governorship primary of the APC to Senator Uba Sani. He also lost a legal battle to seize the ticket at the Federal High Court.

In his resignation letter addressed to the APC Chairman in Hanwa Ward, Sabon Gari Local Government, the governorship aspirant accused Governor Nasir El-Rufai-led government of failure to bring dividends of democracy to the citizens in every part of the State.

Bar. Joshua Danladi Ephraim, the Director-General of his Campaign Organization, in the letter dated 28th November, 2022, lamented that the recent activities and events within the APC in Kaduna State, in particular, compelled him to reconsider his membership of the APC.

According to Sha’aban, “Despite all our best efforts, admonitions and best intentions, it is disheartening to note that the APC has become more alienated from the masses, and rather than foster peace, social cohesion and integration in Kaduna State as we envisaged and worked for, the APC in Kaduna State is now seen as synonymous with hardship, division and with total disregard for human lives, communal and family values.”

Furthermore, he noted that rather than work to bring the dividends of democracy closer to the masses, “some few elements in the APC in Kaduna State have hijacked the party structure and turned it into their personal estate to serve their personal greed and avarice, for the benefit of only their families, friends and cronies”, saying that they have no regards whatsoever for the feelings, yearnings and sensibilities of even the many members of the party who supported them, and the general populace of Kaduna State.

As one who strongly believes in God, and in the belief that the commonwealth of the land is for the common benefit of all, the governorship aspirant explained that he has found himself unable in good conscience, to sit back and allow he called “this reign of impunity” to go on without a voice of dissent.

He said that at various times, he has had cause to express his displeasure with the policies and actions of the APC in Kaduna State to the State leadership, stressing that his stance on good governance, rule of law, social justice and equity “has caused us to be treated with disdain, and to be seen as a Pariah to those who are personally benefiting from the skewed realities presently in the APC.”

I congratulate the Governor of Osun State, Senator Ademola Adeleke, and the good people of Osun State, on his inauguration and formal commencement of the elected mandate of his people.

Beyond our partisanship in politics, every successful manifestation of the democratic process, above all impediments, is a triumph of the true will of the majority, and a source of shared joy to all who desire the best, for our dear country.

I salute the doggedness and resilience of Governor Adeleke, and wish him a fruitful and productive tenure, in the service of his people.

The Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, has sparked speculations on social media after he said Nigeria must move from consumption to production.

The former Anambra State governor, Peter Obi Naija News understands that had in his recurrent campaign slogan claimed that a drastic reduction in importation of goods for consumption and increase in production of essential goods will help keep jobs in the country instead of exporting them.

While speaking in national innovation workshop organized by the Senate Committee on Science, Technology and Innovation in Anambra State, Osinbajo said, “Nigeria will be great only when we begin to shift our emphasis from a consuming nation. We must rely on production and that is the only way to go.”

Some Nigerians read the statement as an endorsement of the presidential candidate of the Labour party’ economic plans for the country.

A user of the micro logging site Twitter, Frank, latched on to the statement and said, “VP secretly endorsing obi.”

JoSi said, “Okay. Yemi Osinbajo is now Obidient.”

Madness. [s]I blame the churches and families that accept to make wives out of hoes.[/s] They will ask for genotype, blood group test and pregnancy test but they will not ask if the couples, especially the lady is sexually pure as a precondition for the solemnization of a marriage. Then when the couples start having sexually related issues in their marriage they will start rubbishing the marriage institution instead of calling out the fools that joined two misfits in an unholy matrimony. If every clergyman and every family enforced the virginity of ladies before marriage, this foolish mother will not allow her daughter have sex before marriage let alone going as far as recommending family planning for an underage girl and even the girl will never try any sexual nonsense knowing fully well she would be jeopardizing her chances of getting married. This will elevate the punishment for rape to capital punishment and will make rape victims easily prove their case.

The camp of the Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has advised the All Progressives Congress (APC) to replace its standardbearer, Bola Tinubu, to avoid further embarrassment to the ruling party.

The call came against several gaffes that Tinubu has made in the course of his Presidential campaign outings including in his home base, Lagos on Saturday, where he apparently forgot the name “Permanent Voters Card,” (PVC).

Addressing his teeming supporters while surrounded by party chieftains, the former Lagos State governor had said: “Do you love me? Do you love me? Go and take your APV, APC and you must vote.”

A statement issued Sunday by Phrank Shaibu, the Special Assistant on Public Communications to the PDP Presidential Candidate, noted that Tinubu should be replaced “so as to avoid further embarrassing scenarios occasioned by his continued miscues and gaffes.”

The Atiku’s camp also pointed out that Tinubu should only be contesting to be the “Grand Comedian of the Federal Republic and not Grand Commander of the Federal Republic going by his utterances.”

According to the statement, “it is public knowledge that every time Tinubu has come out in public to make a statement or two, he has always goofed. If he is not saying that voter’s card has an expiration date; he is saying that young Nigerians are Tweeting on WhatsApp or that 50 million youths should be recruited into the Nigerian Army and be fed with Cassava in the morning, and Agbado in the night. How can you say Nigerians are Tweeting on WhatsApp? Common, is that the kind of person we want to hand 21st Century Nigeria over to?

“In his latest gaffe at the Lagos rally, he asked Nigerians to get their APV in order to vote for APC when even primary school children know that the PVC is the only item that admits a voter into a polling unit.

“Without mincing words, Tinubu’s gaffes already supply comedians, skit makers, meme-makers, and TikTokers with content. He is a self-writing joke and will make Nigeria a bye-word for scorn among the comity of nations, which is why he shouldn’t get close to power.

“Truth be told, lack of mental depth complicated by dementia occasioned by old age is the most mis-recommended criterion against a Tinubu presidency. And examples abound to buttress this point.

“Just listen to any of his extempore speeches and what you find is a lack of coherence, logic and verve. It is for the purpose of unmasking the real Tinubu and exposing him for who he really is, that we have challenged the APC standard bearer to an hour-long television interview.”

The statement further observed that the APC’s seven-and-a-half-year reign is “a sad reminder of Nigeria’s arrested development since 2015 when they came to power.”

It also noted: “The most compelling reason for the APC to be de-registered is the fact that it has driven millions of Nigerians deeper into poverty since 2015, when it has been ruling the country, and spent trillions of naira procuring hunger, darkness and insecurity.

“If the APC are not keen on replacing this disaster of a candidate, they should in the alternative apologize to all Nigerians for bringing them nothing but the suffering of unquantifiable proportion since 2015, and proceed to make a solemn pledge not to have anything to do with governance, especially with the February 25, the election is fast approaching.”

The statement maintained that the remarks credited to Tinubu on Saturday, November 26th, 2023 “where he laboured, albeit unsuccessfully, to paint the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Candidate as ungrateful and over-ambitious as not only offensive but reckless.”

The statement added: “Instead of attacking Atiku, he should have dissipated that energy on telling Nigerians about himself, especially at this time when it is said at various fora that the only thing that is real about Tinubu is his person and that every other ascription on him is a borrowed robe. To be sure, Nigerians believe that Tinubu should come in the open to effectively disclaim the allegation that his name as it appears on public documents is not his name; that the parents he claimed were not his; that the certificates he claimed to be his are not and that the schools he claimed to have attended didn’t know him.

“The issue of which schools he attended is already in the public domain as only few months ago, he told the Independent National electoral commission (INEC) that he didn’t attend primary and secondary schools. The former Lagos governor, however, claimed he had two degrees from two American universities, which he further stated had been stolen by unknown soldiers during the military junta of the 1990s!!

“The disclosures came in an affidavit submitted by Tinubu to the electoral office as part of his eligibility filings for the 2023 presidential elections.

“The documents released on Friday, 24th June, 2022, showed that the APC Presidential flagbearer left the columns for his primary and secondary education unmarked. But he said he obtained a degree in business and administration in 1979, apparently referring to his previous claims of attending the Chicago State University.

The statement recalled what Tinubu said, quoting him, ‘I went on self-exile from October 1994 to October 1998. When I returned, I discovered that all my property, including all the documents relating to my qualifications and my certificates in respect of paragraph three above, were looted by unknown persons.’

The Atiku’s camp declared: “Tinubu’s latest claims appear to contradict his previous election submissions, especially in 1999 and 2003 when he ran for office as a governorship candidate in Lagos. He claimed both times that he attended primary and secondary schools.

“He said he attended St Paul Children’s Home School, Ibadan, between 1958 to 1964; while his secondary education was at Government College, Ibadan, between 1965 to 1968. From Ibadan, Tinubu said he proceed to Richard Daley College, Chicago, from 1969 to 1971. He stated finally to have attended both Chicago State University and the University of Chicago.

“Although the Chicago State University confirmed Tinubu as its student, graduating with a degree in business and administration on June 22, 1979, all the submissions were challenged as fraudulent by a prominent Nigerian lawyer, Gani Fawehinmi.

“Fawehinmi, who died in 2009, argued the matter up to the Supreme Court, which dismissed the case on technical grounds rather than on its merits. Now, I don’t know baggage huger than this for a country like Nigeria that is struggling to sell itself to the world to now have its president weighed down by this dubious pedigree.

“Ask Bode George about the source of Tinubu’s stupendous wealth and what you will hear is a story of how the Jagaban of Borgu has placed the entire machinery of Lagos State under his firm, personal control and is milking the state dry. George has told whoever cared to listen that within the span of his Lagos governorship of eight years, from someone who those who knew him said was passably well-to-do, Tinubu grew a monstrous wealth, such that Within this period, he also acquired a humongous political influence in Lagos and outside of it.

“Bode George’s position is difficult to ignore. It is an open secret that Tinubu has substantial interests in virtually every sector of Nigeria’s economy, ranging from oil, aviation, banking and finance, real estate, and the media; all courtesy of the money he ‘made’ from being Governor of Lagos State for only two terms of eight years. Of course, there are no easy traces of these investments as they are funded in the names of shells and proxies. But no one needs to be told that it is all wealth without work − it is Lagos State’s money. So, what morality will Nigeria be preaching by having a president of such questionable makeup?

“Tinubu may be a successful politician whose lifetime ambition is to be President of Nigeria, but it takes more than being a politician to become Nigeria’s president. Among others things it takes credibility. The fact that everything about Tinubu is shrouded in secrecy should tell us that the APC Presidential Candidate lacks the credibility to govern a country like Nigeria.

“But more importantly, with the disaster that the APC administration has turned out to be, it will be more catastrophic to have a Tinubu as his successor. Governing Nigeria is not all about identifying surrogates who will man critical political offices for future political gains. Nigeria needs a debonair, cerebral, healthy, and suave president — a man in the mould of Atiku Abubakar.”

The statement also said that Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s claim at the Lagos rally that Tinubu will lift Nigerians out of hardship and hunger was an indictment on the APC, an admission that indeed over 133 million Nigerians now live in abject poverty as reported by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS).

“Now they are selling a message of renewed hope. It is common knowledge that darkness cannot cure darkness and sickness cannot cure sickness. How can the APC be promising to fix problems exacerbated by the APC? This is balderdash,” the statement declared.
