Politics / Poem: Like Ice Cream, Like Osinbajo by okefranci: 8:01pm On Jun 04, 2022
Your leadership taste makes us tingly,
Your economy aroma we adore,
No matter how much we consume,
You leave us craving more.

In 2023, serve us your leadership Ice Cream.
Like Vanilla of security;
Like Sugary syrup of Sound Education;
Like Vivacious flavor of Judicial Reform and;
Like Chocolate Sauce of Infrastructure.

Ice cream is creamy curves, Osinbajo is intelligent and strong.
We covet every inch of you,
My voluptuous ice cream man.
We taste, we nibble and we lick your personality.

Oluwafemi Popoola

I think the best candidate must be determined by the delegates and much from the president as well and I'm quite sure that the voice of masses is the voice of God so Osinbajo will be a leading candidate by God grace

Politics / 2023: The Difference Osinbajo Can Make by okefranci: 9:23pm On Jun 01, 2022
By Olaoye Ayotunde

Nigeria became a democratic state again in 1999 when the then military administration headed by General Abdulsalami Abubakar handed over to a democratically elected and constituted government headed by former President Olusegun Obasanjo.

Since the beginning of this Fourth Republic on May 29, 1999, till date, the nation has had successive handing over to democratically elected governments without military intervention 22 years running.
Looking through this period, the nation has not witnessed a Vice President in any of the past administrations who is peacefully interested in becoming the President after his principal except in the case of Professor Yemi Osinbajo, SAN.
Prof Osinbajo is the Vice President to the incumbent President Muhammed Buhari, and in seven years of being the Second-in-Command, he served with exceptional qualities, which his boss has attested to, such attributes that the nation has not seen in any Vice President since the beginning of the Fourth Republic
In simple comparison, one can conveniently say that Vice President Osinbajo exploring the office of the Vice President, has added a lot of values to this position many have said has no definite constitutional direction, unless such given to it by the President. However, there had been Presidents before Buhari, and
we all saw the quality of engagement of their Vice President, in all honesty, Prof Osinbajo’s performance has surpassed we saw of his predecessors.

Let’s take a look at some of his achievements: As Chairman of the National Economic Council (NEC), which has the state governors as members, the Council has enjoyed a lot of changes and effectiveness in managing the economy and creation of lifelines for states, especially in fighting the scourge of Covid-19. This testimony has been affirmed, even by the governors in the opposition parties. Many of them have given credit to the leadership of NEC under Osinbajo. If Osinbajo becomes the President it suffices to say that governors and their states will have more benefits from the central government whether in the ruling or opposition parties.

The present Buhari-led administration also came up with the Social Investment Programmes in her first term. These programmes were under the supervision of the Office of the Vice President, and with Prof Osinbajo supervising, even, the President had attested to the programmes being well-coordinated
likewise, the beneficiaries too had good testimonies about the how impactful the programmes were to them.
So far, these Social Investment Programmes have been applauded as one of the best in the history of the country in terms of delivery and number of beneficiaries.

Politics / Osinbajo: The Apc’s Masterstroke To Victory In 2023 by okefranci: 8:38pm On Jun 01, 2022
By Oluwafemi Popoola

The just-concluded National Convention of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) that produced Atiku Abubakar as the party’s standard-bearer has kick-started a series of discussions and permutations in the camp of the ruling party.

Similarly, engagement has begun in earnest on who should the ruling APC present as its candidate alongside a combustible mix of other topics that border on the choice and expectations of the Nigerian people in the 2023 general election.

The former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, is no stranger to the country’s electoral process.
Atiku has been running for Nigeria’s topmost office since 1993 and has been on the presidential ballot since 2007. His emergence, was, therefore, not surprising to many political watchers and observers given his long years of experience at the polls.

Atiku’s agelong quest of becoming Nigeria’s president will largely be determined by how the ruling party can put its house in order. There has been a national clamour for a Southern presidency from all political and ethnic divides and it is just a matter of few days before the ruling party elects its candidate who will fly the party’s presidential banner at the 2023 general elections, and the 6th of June has been fixed for the party to hold its presidential primary election. For a party that is said to be poised to fix Nigeria forever, choosing a candidate for 2023 will tell if the party will either remain in power or go into extinction after the next electoral circle.

The outright disregard for the gentleman arrangements of power rotation between the North and the South by the PDP will definitely mar the chances of Atiku at the polls which may further consign him to another electoral defeat. It is one thing to be a ballot veteran, it is another to examine if your candidature dovetails into the current yearnings of many Nigerians. The national mood in Nigeria today calls for a Southern presidency in 2023 and that alone will torpedo the Atiku candidacy. Nigerians can’t serve another Northern president again after Muhammadu Buhari leaves the seat of power. It even betrays the trajectory of power rotation between the North and South ever since we began the Fourth Republic in 1999. Nigerians can’t be taken for a ride. Having a Northern president in 2023 is dead on arrival.

Since the Fourth Republic, there has been a rotation of power between the South and the North. Not only that, it has been from one Christian president to a Muslim president. This is the system the country has been used to with constitution backing. It is more or less like an unwritten law. Obasanjo as a Southern president in 1999, transferred the power to Umaru Yar’Adua a Northern Muslim after his eight-year tenure expired. From Umaru Yar’Adua, down to Goodluck Johnathan a Southern Christian and to Muhammadu Buhari who will hand over the presidency to another Southern Christian in 2023. This has been the dynamics of Nigeria’s politics which is laced with ethnic and religious sentiments. This is also the reason the country hasn’t exploded.

The ruling APC must put its house in order and present a popular Southern Christian candidate if the party is serious about retaining power in 2023 and beyond. The likely candidate that fits into the equation is the current Vice President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, who has constantly been praised by high and low in the country for his leadership skills and competence.

Atiku may have been deceived into thinking that he could pull the same number of votes he got at the 2019 general elections. For example in 2019, he had 11.2 million and from
the 11.2 million votes, a whopping 5.1 million came from the South most especially the South-South and South-East. But in all, he has never won a national election.

And again, the former Vice President struggled to win even in his own State Adamawa for PDP. He got 412, 266 as against APC’s 377,488 votes. Also, in that same election, Atiku lost his polling unit to the APC in his home state Adamawa.

It is safe to assume that without support from the South, Atiku will only struggle to raise seven million votes across the country irrespective of who he chooses as his running mate. He will not come close to any popular candidate from the South if the ruling party put its act together and pick a Southern Christian as the party’s flag bearer in the forthcoming party convention.

The APC should search no further, and adopt the remarkable Vice President, Prof Osinbajo as the presidential flag bearer. The country needs a breath of fresh air to stir it towards more development and its destiny as Africa’s global power.

There is a need for a strategic, conscious attempt to ‘intellectualise’ and bring decency into the entire governance architecture in the country. Above all, Nigeria needs a leadership that is knowledge-driven, hands-on, and with the right democratic reflexes. Osinbajo ticks all the boxes. He will not only win the election for the party, but he will also set the country on the part of development and progress. This is the masterstroke for the party.
