Who is the smiling guy in the red hat? I'm guessing he is the contractor or equipment supplier! His smile is too much in this terrible economy.

LocalStandard1:
Heaven!!! So you still find a way to argue this video? Then where is the original longer one?

We're really in trouble in this country!

The link is right there on my post. In fact, it's in the first sentence.

Here's a link to the longer video by El-Rufai. The screenshots are below.

In Mallam @elrufai ‘s words (Translated)

“I have spoken to Tinubu @officialABAT even before primaries that I don’t want any position.

But he said I want you to help me and I assured him that we will help him but he should know I don’t want any position because I’m tired” /1 pic.twitter.com/7jLiG3aEoZ

naptu2:
Back in January this year I wrote about a trick that propagandists and spin doctors use. Someone has deployed that trick many times in the past 24 hours. I'm suspecting that whoever it is has something to do with the PDP because I saw the first video in a PDP group and the second video is being circulated by PDP handles.

The trick

As I wrote here (https://www.nairaland.com/822196/it-begins-me/432#109513316) the propagandist might post a still photo and provide an interpretation of what was happening when the photo was taken, or he might post a very short video which provides no context. Basically, you don't know what happened before or after the picture was taken and so you might interpret it wrongly because you don't know the context.

The first video

Bola Tinubu was reading the protocol part of his speech (where he recognises VIPs at the event) and he recognised the presence of the DG of his campaign organisation, Governor Simon Bako Lalong of Plateau State. He praised Lalong for organising good campaign events and said that it shows what can be achieved when technology is applied. He said that they were at a proper town hall meeting, not like the "Bala blu, blu blu, bulaba" that others were organising.

They posted a short video on that Whatsapp group and it only showed Tinubu saying, "Bala blu, blu blu, bulaba". It didn't provide the context of what he was saying. They then used this as an example to show that Tinubu has a mental illness.

Here's the full video. The remark begins at the 3 minute mark.

Second video

Right now they are circulating a very short version of an old video that has gone viral. In this particular case, both the public and private sides of the video went viral almost a month ago and I think I posted about it on this thread.

They have posted a video of El-Rufai speaking in Hausa Language. They claim that El-Rufai is saying that Bola Tinubu is too old and tired to run for president and that he should rest. They claim that he said that he told Tinubu this, but Tinubu refused to accept it.

What El-Rufai was actually saying (if you see the longer video) was that he was tired and wanted to rest. He said that he didn't want to hold any positions any more and that he told Bola Tinubu this after the primaries, but Tinubu refused to accept it. El-Rufai said that he has a lot of (younger) mentees who are capable of holding any positions and they should give the positions to his mentees instead.

That was the private side of the video and what El-Rufai said there played out in public in the video below. When Bola Tinubu finished his speech, he said that he was not going to leave the stage until El-Rufai promised that he would stay back in Nigeria (after his term as governor) to serve the nation. El-Rufai had to promise that he would serve, but he said that it could be part time.

Obinoscopy:
No, I intend my comment to be directed to everyone who will read Jarus's Projection here on nairaland.

Oh, that's not what I meant. If you simply wanted your comment to be read by everybody that reads Jarus' comment on Nairaland, then you can post it without mentioning me. You mentioned me as if I was the author of the forecast and I told you to direct your comment at the author of the forecast (I'm sure you understand this).

Obinoscopy:
Naptu2, this projection is false. The reason is that it is using the mentality of a two party race. But this isn't a two party race. This is a four party race. So it's a complex race.

Anyone who dismisses LP and NNPP in this race is simply not in tune with the complexity of this current race. LP has a stronghold in the SS, SE and parts of NC and NE. NNPC holds supreme in parts of NW. This unbalances lots of political equations.

Anyways, the election is weeks away. I'll bookmark this thread and comment on it later after the results are out..

Your comment should be directed at Jarus https://twitter.com/SirJarus/status/1624512572413120517

AndroBlaze:
Sir Naptu, please help us tell our elder that Yogi Berra was actually a sports personality (baseball player& coach) and not a comedian.

Oh, I know. That's the first thing I noticed when I saw the article. I guess it's because he had so many funny sayings and his comments are often included in books of funny quotes.
