CIA can mean anything or anybody.

He is actually working for Atiku, I suspect.

Many Nigerians are just too emotional. Why should NAFDAC use the woman's personal loaf for testing? The agency did the right thing by gathering samples from the open market and the manufacturer instead. Most people are just reacting based on the assumption that the woman is innocent. I'm not saying she's guilty or trying to ruin the company's reputation.

In a situation like this, NAFDAC cannot simply take anyone's word for it. The best move is to randomly collect the bread from multiple markets across the FCT and other states to test them. NAFDAC is completely justified in getting samples straight from the company to see if their factory standards match what's on the shelves.

We are always too quick to get emotional. If you think bread lasting longer than two months is unsafe, the sensible thing to do is consult experts rather than blindly attacking NAFDAC. Our problem is that we often think we know it all instead of seeking professional insights.

This defection is opposition strategy and will eventually favour Atiku Abubakar. It is a reverse of the strategy used by APC in 2023. The two gladiators like Obi and Kwankwanso will be eventually heavily compensated if it works out. Tinubu is now boxed. The North has lost most of the middle-belt States. It will be game over if they allow APC to rig themselves in, in the South East Nigeria. That is now impossible with Obi on the ballot the battle ground is now the MB, Oyo & Osun State. Atiku will win all the NE and NW States which will give him the majority votes. He will be looking for the spread in States like Osun, Oyo, Akwaibom where he performed very well in the last election. The NDP will do damage to both Atiku and Tinubu in the SE and reduce Tinubu votes in the SS and SW.

This coming election is for Atiku to loose, if it can work on the spread in Southern Nigeria. A run-off is very possible if Atiku cannot secure the spread.

I think it is a strategic move to defeat the ruling APC. Atiku has captured the majority of the electorates in Northern Nigeria. Tinubu will struggle in the North. The elites of the SE particularly will try to rig for Tinubu in the East if Obi is not on the ballot (especially as the Presidential candidate). Therefore, if Obi refuses to deputise Atiku as VP or not given the VP slot, then it becomes a smart move to ensure that SE votes do not go to Tinubu. SE votes will most likely decide the winner between Atiku & Tinubu. If A cannot get it, A prefers that B also does not get it. I suspect that Kwankwaso is actually working for Atiku. Recall Atiku's recent visit to Kwankwaso in Kano. Also note that Kwakwanso said he would never deputise Obi before now. What changed? Despite Kwankwanso on the ballot as VP to Obi, the North will not vote the ticket but use the ticket to lure away SE votes from Tinubu. In all these, the SE must avoid emotional politics to avoid loosing out again. They have to make a strategic decision and I think aligning with APC now holds the best opportunity to clinch presidential ticket in the future. SE's path to presidency lies (for the foreseable future) in the alignment with SS, SW & MB. NE & NW are no go areas due to religious differences and historical hostilities. 10,000 boreholes, billions in donations and even bigger project cannot do it.

Obi/Kwankwaso will not sell in the North and Kwankwaso/Obi will not sell in the South. If Atiku eventially wins tnrough this strategy, he will directly or imdirectly compensate Obi after gaining power. It will be the reverse of what happened in favour of APC in 2023.

Guyman02:
Voter aparthy is now so bad that only 7% of registered voters came out to vote in the last offseason elections in FCT, Rivers and Kano states.
This is why most Igbos preferred Abacha to the Taqiyya sold to Nigerians by Tinubu led NADECO democracy activists who are currently ruling the country and messed up the democracy they claim to have fought for.

It wasnt really high voter turnout but high level of results writing.
