ivandragon: Why the north should bring back Jonathan
Why the north should bring back Jonathan That former President Muhammadu Buhari defeated then President Goodluck Jonathan in 2015 was because Buhari was the most popular politician in the country at the time, particularly his huge following in the North. Without Buhari, no politician could have defeated Jonathan for the seat.
Before 2015, Buhari was like a god in the North, especially among the dregs of the society. He doesn’t have that image again because his eight years of presidency have diminished him and exposed his emptiness. In fact, if not for the stupendous wealth he may have acquired, Buhari should have preferred to go to the grave with the image he had prior to 2015.
The North and the Southwest conspired to remove Jonathan as president on the basis of Jonathan’s apparent failure as president. The major question today is: Is the country better now than it was 10 years ago?
Jonathan was harassed and removed primarily because he hails from the minority tribe of the country. Buhari dragged the country several decades backwards. However, Buhari is obviously far better than the current president, Bola Tinubu. I imagined in my life that Buhari could run the country better than anyone, but Tinubu has made Buhari look like a saint.
The North holds the ace in the 2027 presidential election. Tinubu was declared as the winner of the 2023 presidential election because the North supported him. The South West, where he hails from, couldn’t give him the kind of support he got from the North. Don’t forget that he was defeated massively in Lagos and Osun states. If he could lose Lagos and Osun states in 2023 when his competence as a president had not been tested, how much more now that he has failed woefully and abysmally on all fronts and indices?
The All Progressives Congress (APC) will definitely field Tinubu as its presidential candidate. Tinubu and his supporters may be banking on rigging to win the 2027 presidential election. But they can only succeed if the people of Nigeria allow them, particularly Northerners.
By 2027, Tinubu and Jonathan would be the only Southerners eligible for the presidency for just one term of four years before the seat returns to the North in 2031. That’s why the rumour of Atiku Abubarka and Peter Obi’s joint presidential ticket seems unrealistic. The ticket cannot defeat Tinubu because southern Nigeria must complete their turn of eight years just like Buhari did.
Should the North field any presidential candidate, the entire South may vote for Tinubu. With reasonable votes from the North, he will coast home for his second term, but Tinubu doesn’t deserve a second term.
If Buhari couldn’t turn the fortunes of the North after eight whole years as president, Tinubu would be worse. Jonathan, as president, made more concrete efforts to develop all parts of the country, especially the North. However, the issues of religion and ethnicity removed him from office.
All over the world, countries are waking up to correct electoral mistakes. The Americans and the Ghanaians have done it. Nigerians can do it in 2027.
What Jonathan requires is the support of the North. The South South, South East, and a substantial part of the South West will vote massively for him. The North should jettison the issue of religion in 2027. If Tinubu could do this in his first term, only God knows what he will do in his second term when he will not need the votes of Nigerians again.
Richtaiwo: Shehu Shagari is from the North Muhammadu Buhari is from the North Ibrahim Babangida is from the North Sani Abacha is from the North Abdulsalam Abubakar is from the North Muhammadu Buhari is from the North All Northern governors are Northerners
So whose blame is it that the North is underdeveloped?
You forgot Tafawa Balewa.....North can never develop
Gistmedia10: In a shocking viral video, a Nigerian pastor has stirred outrage after allegedly performing a staged miracle where he claimed to bring a man back to life. The footage shows a man lying in a casket, his face eerily pale and covered in white powder, creating the illusion of death. The pastor could be heard declaring, "It's not yet your time to go; that's what God told me," before commanding the man's "spirit" to return.
In a dramatic turn of events, the man seemingly rose from the coffin with the help of the church workers, prompting an explosion of wild jubilation inside the church. Women rolled on the floor, others leaped with joy, and the congregation erupted into songs and dances. The scene, intended to portray divine intervention, quickly became the center of controversy online.
Netizens have accused the pastor of faking the miracle, pointing out that the man lying in the coffin was visibly breathing during the act. Outraged comments flooded social media, with some laying curses on the pastor for "making a mockery of Christianity" and others calling for authorities to investigate the alleged deception.
Acekidc4: This Bodija abi wetin beim name sef no dey hear word.
If what am reading about wetin he do is true, then that Retired General needs to be arrested asap. President Tinubu will not condone any form of lawlessness at all.
The retired Gen drop some wayward cattle. No to open grazing,
gaby: So, because he heads a federal agency overseeing the pool of tax contributed by citizens, that automatically confers on him the sole powers to unilaterally increase his agency's workers salaries and benefits without any recourse to relevant bodies?
A country where any and everything goes.
I knew you will be so hurt, you are always not happy when people rejoice
helinues: They should channel their energy on Boko Haram, bandits that have been causing insecurity in their region.
Priorities first
This Bill has exposed them , a typical northerner doesn't pay tax, they depend on tax coming from Lagos , Porthacourt, Delta e.t.c to be shared with them according to their fake numbers of local governments,
NLCreator666: Tinubu is facing intense backlash in the North over his controversial Tax Reform Bills, which many Northerners have dismissed as a move designed to benefit the Yoruba and Lagos. The bills were overwhelmingly rejected, with critics accusing Tinubu of trying to impose tax policies that favor his home state after borrowing trillions to develop Lagos. They made it clear that they are not "mugus" and will not allow such policies to go unchecked.
In a bold statement, they vowed that Tinubu won’t return for a second term, labeling him as OTP (One-Term President). They also called out Tinubu’s loyalists who have threatened to divide the nation if the North blocks the bills, daring them to try. They made it clear that no one can threaten the unity of Nigeria.

Something that is done and dusted already, Tinubu doesn't believe in one Nigeria, he is an advocate of spend what you earn, when the Bill is finally passed ,the North can decided to go their separate ways. Good radiance to bad rubbish.
Heavens1stson: Despite presenting himself as a Southern president, most of Tinubu's appointments are heavily concentrated in the South West, particularly in Lagos and Ogun states, a clear display of tribalistic leadership. Now, he wants to "reform" taxes in a way that seems to disproportionately favor Lagos. Meanwhile, the entire country continues to thrive off the South-South's oil resources.
Everything Tinubu has touched has proven catastrophic for Nigerians, often rushed and poorly thought out. If he is already centralizing power and resources to benefit his region, what assurance is there that the proposed tax reforms and restructuring won't follow the same pattern, especially given how hastily he wants to implement them?
Only a truly nationalist leader, like Obasanjo, should be entrusted with restructuring Nigeria. Leaders driven by regional bias, like Tinubu and Buhari, are unfit for such a critical task. Nigerians must resist allowing such individuals to determine the fate of this great nation, lest they usher in even greater calamity.
Where are know you are senseless is when you mentioned Obasanjo that can never be president again, you want to entrust restructuring to him.
mrvitalis: You guys overrate Tinubu so much honestly
Take out el rufai Tinubu would never get APC ticket
If Buhari had made a decision on a candidate Tinubu would never have gotten the ticket
Thinking Tinubu unless he wins people over to him I don't see the rigging that would help him
I really wish Obi can step aside because obi contesting is what's still given Tinubu some assurance
Sense is running faster than your brain, same Tinubu that said it publicly that he made Buhari president is whom you said if Buhari made decisions on him.
Expensive has said it all, Life is about choice, ....Once you believe that God is only found in churches ,....that is your first foolish believe, once you believe that God is a money doubler another foolish believe, Once you believe that you cannot pray by yourself until a pastor pray for you .....is all over for you.
ogaemma: See their sad faces, no one is smiling or laughing. They too do not have joy. Back then when Obasanjo or Yar'adua returns from international trip, you will see the faces of those who went to receive them from the Airport always with a big smile . Tinubu have inflicted sorrow in the lives of citizens including those who are close to him. Each time he is traveling, Tinubu keep on waving his hands at those who escorted him to the Airport, and no one of them is waving back at him.
All these nonsense you are typing if from your pain, if you know any of those standing at that airport to welcome the president alone, you life will not be sorrowful like this.
Bobloco: The North made Tinubu president, and the same North will remove him.
But I hope no Tinubu-paid agents or mandate standers will come screaming that they should allow the South or Tinubu to finish his eight-year tenure, or try to preach any 'southern unity' bullshit.
They will be reminded that Tinubu, with his allies, destroyed southern unity in 2015. He truncated an opportunity for the South, the South-South, and an Ijaw man to have an unbroken eight-year tenure. He will be told, in clear terms, that there is no southern unity.
When he did it in 2015, they called it politics, building bridges, and whatnot.
The truth is that karma is dealing with Tinubu and he must reap what he sowed. He sowed the wind and must reap the whirlwind.
Today, he is president and is regarded as the worst president Nigeria has ever had—a position he is contesting with no one.
Karma is dealing with Tinubu for all the atrocities he has committed against God and humanity
I don't like people that peddle lies, GEJ will have used 10 years as Nigeria President and 2 years as Vice president making him the longest service democratically elected president in Nigeria.
