that is what we said about Buhari, we said even a dog will defeat APC.

Thee is a big difference between Buhari and Tinubu. Buhari is a Northerner, secondly he has a cult followership in the north and don't forget elections are determined by northerners, they decided not to disgrace and to support him after all he is one of th ,,BUT TINUBU IS NOT A NORTHERNER. he has no cult followership even in the south ,he lost Lagos State his where he has his base ,so there is a vast difference them

Akpakomiza2:
The north will still divide or share votes. El rufai couldn't even deliver Kaduna

El Rufai strength is about mobilising the north ,that is what he is always doing , he has a way of mobilising northern elites that is why h is dangerous . Maybe because he was once a radical or of royal blood . Ask obj and Co. When obj wanted to deal with Atiku ,it was el rufia he first gave the task to

Rexymania:
na tinubu you dey undermine like this? 😆 That guy ....

Boss I understand the opinion of many that assume Tinubu to be a political Demi god . But let's not forget that if not for the likes of el Rufai and the northern Govs , he wouldn't have gotten APC ticket and likewise he would have lost the election. Bit it was the north led by el Rufai and northern governors that made sure he got into power. Noan is an island , and I let's not forget also GEJ AND PDP HAD 22 GOVS AND YET LOST

Penguin2:
I’ve said it before and I will say it again.

Not even Seyi Tinubu as INEC chairman will help Tinubu.

I know Tinubu will run with Kwankwaso as his running mate in 2027 but that will be Kwankwaso’s greatest undoing and he shortest route to ignominy.

Tinubu will be smoked out of Aso Rock in 2027.

What was done to Jonathan will be child’s play.

even if he run with the emir ,his chances of winning is very small in the north. In. Aija politics ,some people control the north and whether we like it or north ,they are the ones that determine the north direction, if they say they are not backing you,that is final

richmond500:
well if Atiku supports them and Obi supports them too, I don't think they are light.
My problem is that if Obi become the presidential candidate, he will lose the north and the south west.
If Atiku is the candidate, he will lose the south west and probably SE if he doesn't make Obi his vice.

I believe Makinde has a strong voice in the west and El-rufai has a strong voice in the north.

The north is the deciding factor in our presidential elections and they were the ones that have Tinubu over 63© of the votes that brought him in , I don't think he will get up to that this time around and that is why he is trying to pull all the south together to vote for him but that will be very difficult

With the way things are right now , I believe any combination will defeat Tinubu IF ONLY THE OPPOSITION CAN COME TOGETHER .
Tinubu has no achievement to campaign on , the people are poorer now than when he took over power. The north are against him , a man that barely. I don't know how he intends to get more votes than the last time when now people are more disappointed in him than before . The major thing is for the opposition to be united

Since fubara is not complaining and is ok with it,then there is no problem .
Let the people decide in the next election what they want

tinubu is totally disconnected from the people and the realities on the ground, from all indications it seems he believes Nigeria is paradise and that people are not suffering, so he is just taking things lightly, I think when people get into that office they are automatically surrounded with sycophant who will keep praising them and telling them the nation is happy with them. even his Yoruba kin men and people are disappointed. i am still waiting to see where he intends to get votes from.

johnmartus:
Why the people on top, especially the president himself can't just come out and tell the truth about the state of nation ...Well I don't know what is really hidden.

Tinubu should come out and address people that voted for him he should respect this people at least. Meanwhile if Nigeria collapsed it doesn't mean if its Tinubu government collapsed it .The Tinubu administration contributed to it .

We are saying things would get better soon but things are getting worse every day.

you are right o
INEC will insist that it will only recognise correspondence from Anyawu. they should just let the man finish his term, then remove him

adioolayi:
PDP won't have candidates in the office cycle elections ...except their forms have been signed by Anyawu...

More politicians will defect from the PDP... because they won't be able to elect officers in November 2025 when the tenure of Anyawu is expected to lapse.

Who will sign the letter to call for NEC meeting of November

Food4Thought:
To kick BAT out of Aso Rock is a task that must be accomplished.Let every well meaning Nigerian embrace the task.

I am still looking at how he wants to campaign or what he wants to campaign on.
A person that before he got elected didn't win convincingly, he even lost his state ,and since he has been elected,he is been messing up ,i don't know if he expects bigger votes than last time because I don't know where those votes will be coming from . Even the south west won't vote massively for him ,the Northerners who brought him to power have backed out and are the major opposition to him now .
Well sha ,maybe he is relying on Wike again

henlooma80:
Hmmmmmmm, Opposition parties will soon become empty of no candidate.

The main reason why they are revamping is because Tinubu has made a promise of automatic ticket and backing for any APC senator or rep. So it is more like a political survival action , Tinubu needs all hands and all grassroot politicians to help with his reelection bid and he needs these senators and reps that the the people know so that they can work for him. Most first time Govs too will decamp to ac as time goes on . Although some APC Govs have kicked against this assurance by Tinubu to lawmakers . We will have to see how it works out

no problem, may we all live long enough to see how he will look in his old age and what he will be saying by then. but for the moment, let him continue enjoying the glamour, fame, and popularity.

i watched and listened to the woman, she is the architect of her problems, not only that white man culture and religion has also contributed to this problem . she says she cant date or marry a married man and i am sure all this is because of the white man education and culture of one man one woman. no culture or religion forbids polygamy, and that is why many women are single, instead of dating responsible married men who are ready to marry them, a woman of 46 years or even some with kids will be saying they are looking for single men.
secondly, she mentioned the problem of not wanting to spoil herself and that most men coming to her only want to sleep with her, i don't know how she managed to know they were not serious. 90% of marriages started like a hit and run dating affair. no one is sure about marrying until you enter a relationship, but in her case, she has been judging men even before dating them.

boxypane:
Read in between the lines. The current government is a flu on Nigerians but would you support Ekrufai's views on anything?

El Rufai may look frail but when it comes to northern region politics ,he is a force to reckon with , he has a way of mobilising the northern political elites ,that was how he rallied the north for Tinubu even against Bihari choice

History has funny ways of repeating itself .the arrogance of this APC present APC government is very similar and typical to the arrogance of the gej PDP led government then.
This same el Rufai that Tinubu spokespersons are insulting is the same el Rufai that stood firmly for Tinubu in the north ,he was the same el Rufai that fought vehemently for Tinubu to win apx ticket when even Buhari had endorsed someone else,this same el Rufai stood and fought against emefiele naira rebranding,he was the northern region rallying point for Tinubu .
Well let's see what happens in the next couple of months

the release clause is the main issue and it is supposed to lapse and expire in july, so most of the clubs are waiting for july before they can start thinking about him

Kalulu44:
To many people still wondering why Osimhen hasn't been signed by big European clubs or even going for him.
No club is going to pay that release clause for a player who has 1yr remaining in his contract.
And if most of us should be truthful, Osimhen has an attitude problem which most of this top clubs coaches are trying to avoid.
Osimhen without doubt is among the top 5 strikers in the world but they're things these clubs are looking out for in him.
I maybe right or wrong but I those two reasons I listed up there maybe why.

Those who are not as successful as you are will always badmouth your progress and success as nothing tangible. it is normal human behavior

Tinubu reelection is gradually bleeding away .with each day of insecurity in the north ,his chances of reelection dims .

Slytiger:
The Ashanti regional police command has arrested five Nigerians and a Ghanaian for their alleged involvement in the attack and robbery of customers in some banks in Kumasi.



https://www.myjoyonline.com/police-in-a-r-arrest-5-nigerians-1-ghanaian-for-attack-and-robbery-of-bank-customers/

They have made a costly mistake . By the time they get out of jail in Ghana (5% possiblity though) they will be totally useless, they will just go and die . Ghana doesn't give low jail terms ,the judge may sentence them to 50 to 100 years ,most especially because they are Nigerians .

it has nothing to do with the border, it has to do with the internal security architecture, and what is even making it annoying is the president body language and I don't care attitude. We're dey, 2027 is just around the corner. history always has a way of repeating itself

Dosvedanie:
Poor border control is the major cause of insecurity. Nigeria govt need to restrict the borders, NORTH, south, east and west.

It seems Tinubu's sycophants have blocked his memory and thinking, because his praise singer keeps calling him Jagaban and the lord of Nigerian politics. It seems that is making him underestimate the Nigerian voter and overestimate himself.
Okay, it will be a big and great shock when he loses. The insecurity issue is gradually getting to a point where the only message anyone opposing him needs to say is that they will improve security, and 80% of voters will rush to vote for that person.
As the matter stands today, ANY CANDIDATE WILL BEAT TINUBU FROM ANY STRONG OPPOSITION. Tinubu has 12 months more to fix the insecurity issue and problem; otherwise, na bye bye. all those politicians decamping to apc are not going to help him; they are decamping for their political future and survival

This insecurity issue that Tinubu is treating with kid gloves will be a major issue and problem for him when it gets to elections time.
If he thinks shouting emilokan will make people vote for him then. He should think twice ,

I love trump.
" History will forgive you if you make the wrong decisions BUT HISTORY WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU FOR NOT TAKING ANY DECISION" .
As crazy and mad as trump is ,he is a leader who is not afraid it taking strong decisive decisions and always willing to take the blame if it goes wrong . This is something the past American president should have done but they didn't have the guts to do it and they allowed Iran to become a global threat but trump and Israel has done it .

Celestialsword:
What actually is the motive of the president visit,was it to sympathize with them or to profer an urgent solutions to the herdsmen attack.

His visit doesn't change anything,as the herdsmen were not deterred by any form of resistance.

That visit was supposed to be a sympathy visit ,well it turned out to be the opposite and this is exactly what happened during gej time, these northerners will make you look totally stupid once they have decided to go against you

Chinjo2:
Why is it so difficult for security agencies to crush these Fulani herdsmen?
Is there something going on that we don't understand?

That is why Tinubu body language is so annoying and very irritating. He is behaving as if he doesn't know what is happening ,if he thinks because people are calling him jagaban and that he believes he is a political Demi god then he is in for a complete shocker in 2027 ,because all these killings are portraying him as a president who is clueless and totally insensitive . He is the commander in chief and it is his duty to safe guard the lives of his people. On the economic front he has so far scared below average ,security is totally zero ,Nigerians are waiting for the miracle Wike and his fellow paid justices will perform in 2027

SarkinYarki:
CPC is really fight Tinubu , if you know you know , unfortunately Tinubu has refused to fight terrorism head on

It is all about karma , when CPC was using this same tactics to fight gej ,Tinubu was hailing and encouraging them all in a bid to make them win the presidency ,now they are using the same method against him ,.with the way things are going it will be a miracle for APC to win any state in the north convincingly in 2027 . The bloodshed and insecurity is just too much and if Tinubu is banking on the south to give him bloc votes ,I think he will need to think otherwise

If this killing trend and insecurity continue, the opposition will have a perfect case and reason to present to Nigerians why tinubu should not be voted for. I hope Tinubu is thinking about something to do about this problem, or maybe he is relying on Wike again to help him. The 2027 election will be North vs South. if he is relying on Kalu and co to help him out, he will be shocked at the last minute to see that even some Yorubas won't vote for him, likewise Easterers

The only time Nigeria army I'll demolish a building is only if the building is on their land . Apart from that the army won't go into town and start demolishing houses . The compliant should do due diligence and find ouf the land belongs to the army

bluefilm:
That's serious provocation

I hope Israel is ready for the problem they are trying to create with their audacious acts?

the point is Iran is not liked by her neighbours and fellow Arab nations but if they allow Israel to go unchallenged that means they too can be next tomorrow

This matter is really escalating. Will the Arab nations join ?

His actions about what?
if you mean about this Iran issue, i don't think so, but I think it would have been better if he had kept a sealed lip about iit rather than boasting openly

dmangodwin:
Donald Trump actions now will hunt America in the future.
Maybe not in two decades but it will.

Tflex01:
Lol..... Although Tinubu will complete his second term, insecurity may get really worse later because opposition parties will start investing heavily in it in order to snatch power from the incumbents.

Don't be surprised when Obi gets there tomorrow and we start hearing that a whole town was wiped out..... At the end of the day, it is the ordinary people that joins politicians to play politics with people's lives that will still suffer more.

I quite agree with your opinion but from the surface looks of it ,it appears as if the president is incapable and insensitive to the plight of Nigerians most especially concerning the security aspect . And the north is where this problem appears to be very strong and focussed. I believe that is the major point the northern political class opposed to Tinubu will hinge their campaign points on
