PoliticsRe: President Tinubu Has No Pathway To Win In 2027 - El Rufai by koning: 4:03pm On Jul 20, 2025
funshint:
They should just pray the rumoured collaboration btw Tinubu and Kwakwanso is mere speculation? If not, they're just wasting their time.
Kwakwan...wetin?!.

His influence ends in his senatorial zone. He can't even secure Kano state for Tinubu.


And Wike will never be allowed to declare the results in Rivers again. So, El-Rufai is right. Realistically speaking, the only additional vote Tinubu will get in 2027 will come from Lagos state. They will not allow Peter Obi win Lagos again. We all know that.
PoliticsRe: "2027 Not In The Bag For Tinubu" - Segun Sowenmi by koning: 5:33pm On Jul 19, 2025
As long as Atiku, Obi and El-Rufai stick together, Tinubu is gone.

But if they go their selfish ways again, Tinubu wins.

2 years is a long time. Anything can happen.

Ya! but she did not eat it with that "Green hydraulic soup". Not authentic.

BusinessRe: Otedola Takes Over 40 Percent Of Firstholdco In Forced Exit Of Otudeko by koning: 11:49am On Jul 17, 2025
SatoshiX:
I love Otedola's business mindset. His experience with bad debts that leads to him selling his, Zenon oil eventually gave birth to a ruthless investor.
Since his takeover of FBNHolco, he has been aggressive towards the chronic debtors that almost grounded the Company.
I'm proud to be a shareholder.
He's not Self-made though. Hope you're aware of that. Unlike Jim Ovia and Elumelu.

SlavaUkraini:
See why it is necessary to start investing early in life.


Otudeko at 82 don cash out 300 billion naira..
An amount that is totally useless to him at this stage of his life. Sometimes, one wonders the essence of accumulating so much money.

I have subscribed to the school of taught that aspire to spend all their cash money before they die. Bill Gates is our chairman. Don't leave shishi in the bank.
PoliticsRe: Former President Muhammadu Buhari Is Dead! by koning: 6:53pm On Jul 13, 2025
Why do they have to go to London, Paris or Germany to die?.

If you are 75 years and above and you fall sick in Nigeria, get treatment in a Nigerian hospital. I don't understand the point of going abroad just to die there.

Total waste of resources.

RIP to the former Head of state.
PoliticsRe: Ohaneze: Igbos Deserve To Hold Political Offices In Lagos by koning: 10:04am On Jul 13, 2025
[quote author=jidemojola post=136083251][/quote]In your mind, you think you know who owns the land. It's just a matter of time.

Lagos will be totally removed from other SW states.

There are plans on the table. Besides 95% of residents of Lagos are immigrants from the rest of the country. Majority of them from Ogun, Ondo, Oyo, Osun, Ekiti, SE and SS states. The Northerners are increasing rapidly too.

Who will be the first to go under N800.


That's all i'm interested in. Let's go below N800 first and then target N500 a liter in the near future.
PoliticsRe: ADC Presidential Primary: Atiku, Amaechi, Obi, Others To Sign 'Unity' Agreement by koning: 11:13am On Jul 12, 2025
Yes. To unite behind Peter Obi.

I don't even understand what Amaechi is doing there. Hope he's not scheming with Atiku, to become his Vice.

First, is to zone the presidential ticket to that South. Then vote for Obi en masse.

Her only hope of ever going to the Olympics is through Nigeria. Just like most of our Olympic basketball team.

It was a calculated move. Though I think there's a bit of National pride involved.
PoliticsRe: Obi Will Leave ADC, Split Votes And Tinubu Will Win Easily In 2027 - Rufai Oseni by koning: 10:29am On Jul 10, 2025
For ADC, there is no plan B. There's only one sure way to victory. MAKE PETER OBI THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE.


Otherwise the votes of the opposition will be split even more than in 2023.

NNPP and PDP are not totally dead yet FYI.

PoliticsRe: Tunji-ojo Meets US Envoy Over New Visa Policy, Says FG Will Curb Overstay By NGR by koning: 10:15am On Jul 10, 2025
OPICANTO2223:
Tunji ojo is the only minister in Tinubu regime that is truly working
How? All I hear about are "Passports and Visa". Minister of Interior is a very serious and sensitive post. He's simply distracting us with all these Passport and Visa issue. They should be the least of his problems.
PoliticsRe: Presidential Tickets Are Not Given, They Are Contested For - Paul Ibe by koning: 2:42pm On Jul 06, 2025
He said nothing new. We know that. It's a clause in the INEC rules of engagement.

But consensus is allowed. ADC must reach a consensus that allows every other candidate to step down for Peter Obi.

Yes, there will be a primaries. But all other candidate will simply stand up and endorse Obi. Alternatively, they will be made to receive insignificant votes.

For the MF moderator that blocked me before because i endorsed Peter Obi, block me again. It will not change anything.

The country must move forward. Though, I like some of Tinubu's reforms, I believe Obi will do better.
PhonesRe: More Nigerians Disable SMS Alert Over Charges by koning: 2:34pm On Jul 06, 2025
"Then if the transfer is N10,000 or more, the receiving account is also charged N50 as electronic money transfer levy."


This is where most money is stolen by CBN and FGN.

Why not N50 on every N100,000?

N10k is just too small. They make trillions on this levy. It's wrong. I cannot disable SMS alert for N6 per message.
PoliticsRe: Zoning May Split ADC As Atiku, Obi, Amaechi Seek Presidential Ticket by koning: 6:15pm On Jul 05, 2025
Which Amaechi?

He is not in the equation for 2027.

Peter Obi is the candidate. For a landslide win in 2027, Obi should be the presidential candidate.

Atiku should respect himself and be an elder statesman. He can be a king maker.
PoliticsRe: Peter Obi Shouldn’t Be VP In 2027 – Datti Baba-Ahmed Declares by koning: 1:28pm On Jul 04, 2025
Penguin2:
I don’t know for certain but I believe the coalition shouldn’t throw open their primary. They should agree on a presidential candidate and running mate and hold a congress just for formalities.

However, I recognize that if a primary is thrown open, Atiku will get it. But I can assure you that Obi won’t be part of that arrangement.

In the end, the success or failure of the coalition is in the hands of the drivers. Take Obi out and the coalition is dead.
Any attempt at primaries will be seen as a ploy to choose Atiku. There should be no primaries.

When APC was formed out of a coalition of CPC, ACN, ANPP and a faction of PDP, Buhari was simply selected and ordained by Tinubu.
There was an agreement.
FamilyRe: Zabov Chukwunonso Okonjo Born In Russia, Searches For His Nigerian Father by koning: 1:19pm On Jul 04, 2025
He has his father's surname and knows his village. Easy to solve.

Unless his father is not interested.

The one I have in London bears a totally, different Oyibo surname. So, i cut him off.
PoliticsRe: Peter Obi Shouldn’t Be VP In 2027 – Datti Baba-Ahmed Declares by koning: 1:14pm On Jul 04, 2025
PETER OBI CAN ONLY THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE.

There is no plan B on that.

Take Amaechi out of the equation. Why mention him at all. I hope he's not campaigning to be Atiku's VeePee.

PoliticsRe: Peter Obi Formally Adopts ADC Party For 2027 Race by koning: 9:10am On Jul 03, 2025
Politics and ethnic jingoism aside, we, the people of Nigeria need to give Peter Obi a chance.

He will run Nigeria like a "Trader" which he said he was. This means no wastage and every kobo will be accounted for.

Corruption is the weakest link in the development of Nigeria. Obi can handle that because " Him no dey give shishi" apologies to Father Mbaka.
PoliticsRe: Peter Obi: Sarki Dumps Atiku by koning:
Who is "Sarki".

We are not blindly campaigning for Peter Obi. We want a team that will fix this country for good. A team to lay a good foundation for the future.

Tinubu is a disappointment. He also has health issues and far from energetic.

PoliticsRe: ADC Team Looks Formidable - Ganduje's Ex-Aide, Dawisu Hails Coalition by koning: 10:35pm On Jul 02, 2025
ibechris:
Elrufai is the main man in the formation of this coalition...kudos to him.

He tried.
....and he is prepared to run as VeePee to Obi. That combo is a sure banker for 2027. They better make it happen.

PoliticsRe: Acceptance Speech By ADC Interim National Chairman, David Mark by koning: 5:43pm On Jul 02, 2025
yarimo:
ATIKU, kwankwaso, OBI and El RUFAI must all contest for president in 2027 presidential election they like it or not
You wish. They have learnt from past mistake. They will not split their votes again.

Tinubu won because Atiku and Obi split their votes. The margin with which Tinubu beat Atiku was minimal.

The best option now is Peter Obi for President. El-Rufai for vice. Or another Northerner is chosen for VeePee, while El-Rufai becomes Secretary to the Federal govt.

They have nearly 2 years to perfect it.
PoliticsRe: 2027 Presidency: Peter Obi Submits One-Term Proposal To ADC Coalition by koning: 3:05pm On Jul 02, 2025
fergie001:
I like the fact he is pressuring the coalition so as to get better bargain.

Having a bargaining chip is quite good but let's be honest, we know he can't win any Primary that has the likes of Atiku, El-Rufai, Amaechi and co.

Quite frankly, Obi as Presidential Candidate with or without the coalition will not give Tinubu the needed headache he truly deserves.
Wrong analysis.

He was 3rd in last election with virtually minimal vote from NE and NW. Only NC and FCT really voted for him.

If he is selected now, with the backing of Atiku, El-Rufai and co. Tinubu is as good as gone. Wike will never be allowed to do what he did in Rivers again. Never. The coalition can penetrate INEC too.
PoliticsRe: 2027 Presidency: Peter Obi Submits One-Term Proposal To ADC Coalition by koning: 2:59pm On Jul 02, 2025
I see where this is going.

Obi/El-Rufai for 2027
Then
El-Rufai / Amechi for 2031.

Atiku should play a statesman's role. He should not contest again.
