Hey Tinubu, Do No Blame Binani of Adamawa State

Tinubu 'Sacks' Sen Binani As Campaign Coordinator For Adamawa After She Resigned - Politics -

The presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu has sacked Senator Aisha Ahmed Dahiru, popularly called Binani as the presidential council’s campaign coordinator for Adamawa state.

Senator Binani had earlier tendered her resignation letter. But Tinubu, to save face, 'fired' her.

Me:

Senator Aisha Ahmed Binani is the ruling party APC Gubernatorial candidate in Adamawa State. She is Fulani by tribe like the main opponent of Tinubu and from the same State. Tinubu should not expect her support. More than 90% of all Fulanis will vote for @atiku in next year's Presidential election.

Religion and tribal consideration are the key elements for Nigerian Voters deciding who to vote for.

Let me take us back to history. When I served for my NYSC in Kebbi State (1998-99), the transition to democracy happened. The 2 main Presidential Candidates were Yoruba Christians from Southern Nigeria. I was a presiding officer for the electoral body INEC. I was sent to a village in Kebbi State. When we arrived the people were happy to see me because I am a Northern Muslim who speak their Hausa Language. The village Head asked them to slaughter 2 big chickens for me to honor my presence. I told him "Fura Da Nono" will do.

When the voting started, the village Head and some Elders of the Community came to the voting platform and saw we posted two pictures of Obasanjo and Olu Falea, the 2 Presidential Candidates. The first question they asked me was who is a Muslim among them. I answered they are both Christian. The village Head then asked who is a Farmer among them? I pointed to the picture of Obasanjo. And he said loudly "We will vote for Obasanjo". And that was what happened as Olu Falea did not get a single vote in that village.

This is how people vote in Nigeria. I called my relatives in our village in Nupeland recently and asked them who they will vote for next year? They told me "Atiku". I asked why? They said due to their historic relationship with the Fulanis.

The Muslim North voted massively for Abiola, a Muslim from the South West, in the 1993 Presidential election because of the massive humanitarian activities of Abiola in the North. The Muslim North considered Abiola as one of their own. Bola Tinubu will not enjoy the Northern acceptability of Abiola because he does not have a single humanitarian activity in the North before now. Tinubu is a local champion in the South West and the majority of his votes in next year's presidential election will come from there. The Northern Muslim voters considered Tinubu as an outsider. And the intergenerational failures of the genocidal Buhari regime will not help his quest to become the next Nigerian president.

On a final note, Tinubu becoming angry that Binani refused to be his campaign coordinator in Adamawa State lacked substance. Tinubu also played tribal politics when he publicly told the Buhari gang that "It is our (Yoruba) turn!".

No, there's no limit. But for every transaction, you will be charged.

Yes, you'll be the one to source for dollar.

A domiciliary account is a type of current account that allows you to fund it with foreign currencies such as dollars, pounds or euros and enables you to do foreign transactions on that account. You can use a domiciliary account to transfer money to another country or receive foreign currency from another country.
