The battle for Amaechi is not over.
If Wike could rig the presidential election, imagine what he will do on the 11th?
Wike might be a thug and unrefined character but his political machinery is unmatched in the state. The biggest mistake Rivers politicians made was underestimating him.

Bros am not partisan...and I dnt support mediocrity, am a realist, I quoted google as my source, and d list wz compiled by wikipedia

Wer is ur source to back up ur silly claim dat d country's economy is weak

Yes things r hard dats a fact, but 9ja has d strongest economy in africa dats anoda fact.

And it has never happened b4.... another fact

So if u want to continue ur empty argument dnt bother quoting m......

Did you just say Wikipedia?

Guk:
Wale Tinubu openly supported Buhari. He provided the Private Jet that Buhari used for his entire campaign,,,,thats why Muazu and Okupe accussed Wale Tinubu of causing Petrol scarcity a few weeks ago

As you can see, we did not mention Wale Tinubu.
It is obvious where he is.
Infact he will be the man friday for this govt in corporate circles.

As iiiiiiiin! The man no smart at all. Ondo deputy wey get sense quickly port sharp sharp!

Tele Ikuru has always been lousy.

there is really no need for some of the comments APC are making in this press release.
Just ask your men to return to sitting and end it there.
Even if Fayose imposes curfew, folks can still celebrate during the day.
No need for heating up the polity endlessly.

Is Jega counting the votes all over?

Jarus:
I doubt it. But let me go and tease him sir.

His Egbon said the same thing before he started licking oil.
Tell him that i said the case is slightly different here; he has adored the general for most of his adult life. Not damascus converts like Egbon Segun and ogbeni Reuben

Is Jega doing the calculation with his pen and paper or a pocket calculator?

Jarus:
But they fell out towards the end of last year, or maybe when they saw the handwriting on the wall.

On an unrelated note, call your friend Simon and tell him to get ready to occupy the former seat of his Egbon Segun :-)

Jega's f.oreplay lasts forever.
When will he finally come?
How come they have not added the older figures all these while and simply add the borno figures?

xreal:
This may be the end of Monopoly, Fuel subsidy irregularities and all in Nigeria.

Let's dilute our expectations with some reality.

Jarus:
Well, Atedo was and still remains my "professional mentor". That cannot change. He was a fine investment banker that ranks high on corporate governance.

I have never agreed with his political interventions since he became vocal on politics/political economy post-banking career.

So I don't know what you mean.

And let me tell you another Dele Momodu tale: I have not hidden my disagreement with him on his post-banking political leaning and he knows that. I made that known in my book, The Road to VI, where I dedicated a chapter to him, and I finished the chapter with a statement to the effect that I disagree with his style since he started talking on politics. He had read the book and given his feedback.

So the banker Atedo remains my hero, but the political commentator Atedo I never agreed with from day 1.

You and I have said basically the same thing.
On this point we agree.

naijababe:
Abeg change that signature jo, it is about time! I don tire to wait for official confirmation

Yes o. It has been there are for 4 years.
Let me look for a stern warning for Buhari and prof.

oyb:
remember that some of us work in these sectors - and the body language was clear.

GEJ has been terrible for serious minded businessmen.

Chairman, you know I am not qualified to argue with you.

Jarus:
I didn't get your point on this: "These guys were anything but GEJ cheerleaders"


Are you saying these guys did not support all along?

Are you saying I am not aware of where their support lied throughout?


Please let me know exactly what you meant by that post.

I can ignore your "Dele Momodu tale" part

Apologies for my typo.
I have modified the post and made myself clearer.
Those guys are GEJ backers through and through.

oyb:
what i principally remember Otedola for , esp in the obj years was using political influence to jump queue at ports, thereby reducing his demurrage costs. that was when zenon was doing diesel direct and the guy was feeling on top of the world - all that ended with yardua and diesel direct died

I doubt that fellow can do business in an environment where rules work.

Jarus:
They played their card to their chest.

I only pity the Ayeni man, Skye Bank Chairman, and Atedo Peterside. But we are not out for vengeance sha.

Atedo your godfather has learnt a lesson in his old age.
How a man I once respected rubbished himself in the name of ethnicity. Parochial sentiments I never expected from a seemingly intelligent man.

Jarus:
They all supported Buhari.

Wale Tinubu, Dangote, Femi Otedola only played their card to their chest.

I was having a chat with someone closed to them and he revealed all that far back February.


Femi Otedola was once going round his office and asking his staff who they will vote for. Knowing him to be GEJ's friend and in other not to offend his Oga, he said he would vote for GEJ. Femi scolded the guy.

Jarus and his Dele Momodu tales!
There is no proof these guys were nothing but GEJ cheerleaders. Let's not try to rewrite history that was obvious to even the partially sighted. Next thing we would be told that Hajiya Bola Shagaya votes for Buhari.
They can all realign interests for the sake of their businesses but we as the people do not want business as usual where the interest of a few overwhelms the governance of the masses.

asha80:
if refineries in the country are to work then otedola's present business has to go down

Otedola is no Dangote. Any serious government can easily contain him in few simple steps.

Raymie:
By now Bola Shagaya would be BFFs with Aisha Buhari. #AGIP

There should be a law in National assembly banning that woman from aso rock. Her own too much.

Rotten Agip.
Wanting to protect their investments and entrench the monopoly grants them.
Dangote, I can understand but that Otedola should not be seen around the sort of change we desire.

Jega, does not come on time.
The guy goes on and on.

naijababe:
Our VP dey shoot bullet for twitter and a professor of law at that!

Bad girl!!
I think say na only me see am.

Jega is the king of delayed orgasmic pleasure.

mpowa:
Most people demonize tinumbu for God knows why, but this CHANGE won't have been possible without him. Most of our politicians are corrupt, the difference is what they do with their wealth, some go store it in swiss bank, some waste it in futility, some use it to build institutions, create jobs, employs people and political structures, if at all Tinubu is corrupt as alleged, he belongs to the later. To create a change around here, it'll take the dirty politicians to fight themselves, you can't be a saint and do it, or where will Buhari get all the money to fight an incubent with unlimited cash. But from here on I believe things will be better and there'll be sanity and if they mess up too, we'll send them packing.

I love realists like you.
Buhari is no miracle worker. However, this change was necessary so that our politicians will take us serious. We had been taking for a ride for too long.
Even when rigging, they will do it with lots of tact and rigorous planning. The masses have regained their voices and Buhari had better be warned.

shizzleStar:
I officially give up!



Our co-existence as a country needs and has to be re-defined along certain conditions, definitely!.

Now that we have change, what about peace? will the so called 'change' guarantee peace? Time will tell, fingers crossed.

When ffk was running his mouth all over you diD not remember the need for peace.

DExplorer1:
Must JEGA keep disgracing us with his African time?

at least he does not come quickly.

Orubebe says it will not end well with everybody.
Subtly inciting violence.

Orubebe is an outright idiot.

Like you used to tell APC, go to court!!

vivaciousvivi:
Chei, Amaechi deserves to be shot!!!

For all the noise he makes, he is not a political organizer at all.
He has been in power for 8 years yet Wike uses him to clean the floor.
Look at Okorocha who still has a second term election to fight, yet he gave PDP a good fight and went down blazing.
Amaechi needs to be humble enough to learn some lessons.

Ksslib:
I trust my mama. If dis Prof na my papa, no night food for am today.

What rubbish.

The result wey Nyesom Wike gave him to read. i don't blame the man.

dmcdad:
I perused through their website last night and read about how they have 2 sources who gave them info of some APC top officials who have already left their present locations for Abuja, as they intend celebrating GMB's victory once announced.

Which means, e don sure be that. You begin to wonder their source. And thus far, like you said, the result they posted yesterday has been in sync with what Jega is giving out presently.

Come on guys, these results were collated and announced in the states before the Abuja presentation.
