Heffalump:
@OP, be reminded that the rates were better a few weeks ago when dollar was exchanging at #725 to $1 (about 2 weeks ago). Everything started rallying up as soon as it became clear that Tinubu is to be sworn in. Do you need a prophet of doom to tell you that Nigeria is having a bumpy ride soon? This is a very bad omen. Many have also kick-started their japa syndrome, because it's not going to be easy mehnn.

Believe me, if it was Obi/ Datti that was declared winner, the exchange rates would have been on the downward slide in favour of the naira. It would have restored investors confidence in Nigeria to some extent. Those who pulled back would have had some beacon of hope and given some slack.

Let me tell you, those self acclaimed powerful people that stole Obi's mandate thought they're politically powerful. You can't call yourself a Richman when members of your household are in abject poverty. It'll hurt everybody eventually. What goes around comes around.

stop opening a dirty mouth to praise a failure. This is not time for campaign, this is time for governance.
We will shall see!

God punish this devil. Then tell the whole world that you are not going to collect salaries and allowances, projects and kickbacks, feeding and medicals.
Liars!

God punish the drug lord.
When useless Amala fools were insulting Buhari and GEJ where was Seun.

An intelligent man who was unfortunate to work with a dullard and pretender called buhari.

Truth is, it did not matter who won this last election. They are all better than that dogoyaro called buhari

I give you only one year, you will miss Buhari.

OneTemplate:


Buhari did not want Tinubu to be President and this is not even open to debate because we were all witnesses to what played out.

It is the usual deal-brokering , especially courtesy of Northern big wigs, that made Buhari resign himself to supporting Tinubu.

Per blame game, I don't have time for that and neither does Tinubu who I know will lead rather than hide or give excuses. He will be a success and perhaps the best President and most benevolently impactful Nigeria has ever had. Awolowo part 2

The point you miss is that there was a powerful, cynical and very callous attempt to use deliberate misrule to taint Tinubu with APC's failure and thus kill his chance of emerging President.

Those behind the plot understand most Nigerians are politically unsophisticated and will not be able to separate Buhari and APC's failure from Tinubu's leadership which is factually one of the most meritoriously distinguished in Nigeria to the extent his enemy, Reno Omokri, hailed Tinubu "the best Governor Nigeria has ever had".

The plot to make Tinubu a turn-off to the electorate emanate from the thinking, perhaps factually correct, that most Nigerians are emotional and reactionary. Not measured and circumspect.

In it's simplest form, the thinking was to suffer Nigerians ( with fuel scarcity we all now know was man-made, insincere Nigeria redesign leading to severe cash unavailability etal) and Tinubu's candidacy suffers as a consequence of that.

you are making alot of noise. Only few hours remain for tinubu to take over, we are in this country we shall see.

The Igbo man is not worthy to be vice president or president. He is only good in been a servant.

OneTemplate:


Think deeper bro. Your claim in bold above is an artificial construct designed for a polity innately lacking political sophistication and focus.

Had Buhari led well then Tinubu would have strolled into Aso Rock with a landslide victory.

The reality is that Buhari failed horribly to cause Nigerians excruciating pain and suffereing.

He and his born-to-rule advisors from the North were then obsessed with deliberately innitiating policies and 'traps' to ensure APC appears failed so that Tinubu is damaged by association and therfore unable to become President.

Buhari and his crew calculated that APC's 'failure', real and manufsctured, would automatically be blamed on everyone affiliated with the Party whether they were decision makers or not.

They wanted gullible and politically unsophisticated Nigerians to scapegoat and reject BAT for APC's brutal failure perhaps so that Atiku wins as a last option since they failed to stop Tinubu via the numerous machinations they adopted to thwart him at the APC primaries.


Tinubu may not even have needed the strategy decision of Muslim-Muslim ticket you now claim makes Christians his enemies had they not put mountains, surely unsurmountable for most normal people, before him.

That Tinubu emerged victorious is, to the deeper-thinking Nigerian, convincing evidence he is by far best to be our President. Not those who wilt, flee and hide at the slightest challenge as Obi fled PDP and capitulated during the Naira redesign.

It is the lack of political sophistication of some Nigerians that meant they transferred blame to Tinubu, without recourse to his excellent history and background as a leader, once APC caused them severe pain through Buhari's leadership that is nothing to do with BAT.

Tinubu even spoke many times directly against the policies of Buhari, most recently the timing of the currency redesign, but few Nigerians noted this because scapegoating folks for blame is all they care about and not sincere introspection over issues.

The hatred you claim some Nigerians have for for Tinubu was carefully packaged and stage-managed for a gullible audience so they transfer blame to him, due to their incapacity for seeing the big picture, for a situation BAT is not responsible for.

The vested political interest of some led them to use Nigerians callously and cynically, as collateral damage, in their desperation to ensure Tinubu does not become President.


The rejection you claim many host for Tinubu is transferred and not purist. Get that difference clear because it is what negates your statement in bold.

Tinubu will succeed because his rejection by some is emotional and not a reflection of him haven ever failed at any level, and in any position, as a leader.

have you started the blame game? If Buhari doesn't want tinubu to be president, would tinubu had won?
Mark my words, no president has ever work on infrastructure like Buhari.
I hope we are not going to be hearing blame game for another 4 years.
Don't come here and start telling us how some people are sabotaging his effort.

Jostoman:
Naso this baba just use his abracadabra to impose himself on nigerians. Nigerian people too dull

I swear to God.
They are only lions on social media.

flokii:
Bakare should go and sit down.. whether you call him your president or not changes nothing.

it changes alot. No president will ever succeed if 80% of his citizens are against him.
Do you think do you think tinubu will find it easy if the christians refused to work with him

phorget:




Would you have believed that snakes could swallow money? In Nigeria nothing is impossible sir.

that statement was fake statement. I watched the interview with the woman and she never said snake swallow money.

Keyamo= baby minister.
I love this.

Exactly. Some youths are just lions on social media.

Una never see anything, shebi una de fear to protest. Nigerian leaders are doing anything they want yet no youth can come out to challenge them. The only thing the foolish youths are interested is religion and ethnicity.

Opposition is not madness. I don't like APC but there is no way someone will rent and aircraft change the paint and present it to Nigeria for documentation.
Only a fool will believe allegations without evidence.

Where is the project?

lexy2014:


so before now, no president or leader of nigeria has ever built a bridge, established an airline, constructed an expressway or railway?

the Lagos Ibadan expressway you mentioned, was it in existence before or it came into existence when buhari became president?

pls which nigerian air are you talking about? is it functional? where is its office? how many staff and pilots does it have? since how many years has Hadi Sirika been talking about its launch?

he has been talking about it since the last 4 years and now he has achieve what he has been talking about.
Many president promised to build the second Niger bridge since the time of Tafawa Balewa who built the first Niger bridge but nobody fulfill the promise except Buhari.
The office is in Abuja, you can go there to verify.
The Lagos Ibadan express road has been their from generation to generation, it was a death trap but now whenever you are on that road you will not fear potholes.

Klington:
Let's see how he will fill these figures into that form

A man that claimed he had only 100cows.

is it Buhari that stolen those monies?
I love Buhari for his honesty but tinubu is a criminal.

Peppysco:


The SE now constitute about 80% of the country now shebi, person wey call una headless nor make mistake, walahi.

I am not from the South east. I am a proud northerner, north didn't vote for tinubu.

lexy2014:


What has buhari done that no other president has done?

Nigerian air, second Niger bridge and Lagos Ibadan express road/ railway.

Black man is truly wicked. Why trying to stop a project that will benefit the people.

God bless Buhari, he has done what no president ever done. But the mistake Buhari make is to allow a drug lord who has been rejected by almost 80% Nigerians to take over from him.
The worst thing that can happen to this country is having a drug lord, who doesn't have classmates,who doesn't know the name of his primary and secondary school.

Good Morning all.
I personally argued this appeal from the trial court to the Supremw Court. I was at the Supreme Court on Monday when the appeal was heard and argued same. Judgement is reserved for Friday 26th.
The issue in the appeal is very narrow. The PDP had sued APC, Tinubu and Shettima at the Federal High Court contending that Shettima had been nominated in two constituencies. We filed our counter affidavit which clearly showed otherwise. We also filed a preliminary objection that PDP lacked locus standi to bring the suit; that the suit was an abuse of court process, that it was caught by the doctrine of re judicature and disclosed no cause of action. The FHC upheld our objection and dismissed the suit for lack of locus. PDP appealed to the Court of Appeal challenging the ruling of the FHC that they lack locus and the Court upheld the decision of the FHC and dismissed the appeal with 5 million Naira costs against PDP.
They then appealed to the Supreme Court. At the Supreme Court they attempt3d to argue fresh issues that were not in issue at the court of appeal including asking rhe SC to invoke its powers to hear the matter on merit. We filed our Respondent brief along with a Notice of Preliminary objection that the appeal is incompetent and that the SC lack jurisdiction to even assume the powers of the Federal High Court to hear the matter as the issue that was before the court of appeal and determined was on locus standi. We further argued that the suit at the lower court was already statute barred and the SC cannot even hear same outside the 180 days prescribed by the constitution. The court laid two posers to Joe Agi, SAN to answer to convince them on locus and that even if the SC assumes jurisdiction, the case is already statute barred and will be academic. He had no answer for the posers. I argued that the only issue before the court of appeal was on locus and they cannot even be heard to appeal a decision that didn't emanate from the court below. I also argued that the aSC lacked jurisdiction to hear the appeal as constituted. The court didn't even hear the merit of the case on double nomination as it was not in issue.
The court after taking arguments adjourned to Friday 26th for judgement.
So I don't know where all the social media reportage of a non existing issue of determination of Shettima's eligibility is coming from. Its all just a social media hype to heat up the system and create public apprehension.
As we await the SC decision please be assure that our case is unassailable in law.
Like I noted, I personally handled and argued the appeal from the Federal High Court to the Supreme Court.

Babatunde Ogala SAN

rubbish. You base your argument on locus while the real truth is there. You did not follow the electoral law but you want to rule this country. How?

Liars

Nairaland Ashawo will be angry now.

Where is Iyaebe. Can you be confident to tell us your body counts?
See your mates, they are virgin's while you don turn to borehole.

Just waiting for Tinubu after swearing in... Many would soon no he is not Buhari



.

mumu! Obj was president for 8years Osinbajo is vice president for 8 years, now Tinubu want to be president. All from the south west. Are they the only people in this country?

seunmsg:


The high court and appeal court have dismissed the case so how did you end up concluding that he’s guilty? When was he pronounced guilty?

The Supreme Court will not create confusion and instability in the country. They will dismiss the case like the high court and appeal court and asked the plaintiffs to wait for the decision of the tribunal on the matter.

tinubu is a goner. Bayelsa issue has come to stay.
High court and appeal court can use adacadabra to deny justice but supreme will not try nonsense since they know that their judgement is final and can be referred to in subsequent cases.
Double nominations is double nominations, no matter how we see it.
Shetima was nominated twice for different offices.
Tinubu will never be president.

You know all this why didn't you reject the appointment. So keyamo collected salaries and allowance from illegality, unrecognizable appointment. In a sane society police will arrest this idiot keyamo and made sure he returns all the salaries and allowances he illegally collected.
Say no to APC!
