This is the most sensible post here.

The masses determine the success of a politician. On scale of popularity, Saraki is winning presently.

Tinubu presently has no popularity in SS, SE and the north. If he drops a ballot box today, he won't get a reasonable vote anywhere outside southwest

Tanoids stop living in self denial. It'll do you no good. I don't know about Tinubu's popularity in the SS&SE but don’t even mention NC, NE&NW, cos Tinubu is a crowd puller here. The north will forever remember Tinubu for his role in the victory of GMB at the poll. Saraki is only a champion in his home state Kwara, beyond that, he stands no where close to Tinubu.
If you guys in the SS&SE are rooting for a person of Saraki and you think it's same here in the north then you're only deceiving yourselves.

Zeezy99:
first you need to minus pdp\apc from your calculations while talking about saraki, he will decamp tobor from either party and or burn down both parties if the stand in his way. Secondly you talk of treachery and you make tinubu look like the saint, this is politics and there is no honor among this politicians the simply pick the winning side. In 2011 we all know how tinubu gladly handed over the sw to GEJ only to comeback in 2015 and tell us he has always known GEJ is a terrible leader. Saraki is from the north and tinubu sw, se/ss believe that both regions connived to betray them who do you think the analysts will single out as the leader of betrayers. They are both treacherous to the ss/se only that tinubu is a leader of the movement while saraki can still claim to be a mere foot soldier. It will all comedown to the number of heavyweights you have behind you and as the senate elections have shown saraki has a massive upper hand than tinubu in that region

Bros, stop deceiving yourself saying Saraki have influence in the north. I am from the north and I know how politics is being played here. Saraki does not have any influence outside his Kwara stay. As a matter of fact, a South east Rochas have a better chance of becoming a crowd puller in the north than a North central Saraki.
Did I hear you say Northerners will prefer Saraki than Tinubu?. This is laughable.

Barcanista, I know some Tanoids will be angry with you for saying this. But that's just the truth. Always stand your ground and say the truth regardless of party affiliation.

Truth is, when you're faced with exams + deadline, none of these counts.

Nairalanders everywhere. Next time if you want to drink burkutu, look around first, a Nairalander may be watching you.

After my NYSC, I taught in a secondary school where I was being paid N7,500 per month.
I left the job after getting another job.
My take; He should take the job while searching for a better one. Ego & pride will never pay your bills.

Is this op sleeping? How can you compare Tinubu and Saraki?. Who's Saraki?.

Oboyy... I laugh taya today.

spenca:
It is quite sad you come here with a seemed even-handed position afterall it is all you wanted all because of party affiliation and not the Nigerian prosperity, you supported certain persons which am sure you knew would have led to dismay in governance all because you hold foe a party? Where is our sense of patriotism ? Where is our sense of development ? Well I don't see you @op anything or how different from Saraki and Dogara, all selfish desperate mortals. I will borrow from Obama's words "we don't need strong individuals but strong Institutions" and you can't have that if the smallest of institutions in governance( political parties) can't be obeyed what becomes of the larger ones. Just in case you don't know in every institution there are one or two intuitive individuals in it, whose decisions are mostly coherent and logical whether Tinubu falls in there or not, I am not here to debate that but what I am here to say is why blame the man for what he is good in? Just like blaming Ronaldo for always scoring goals and being the free kick taker of his team. I usually don't like commenting on your threads because they are way too sentimental for me but I guess your logical neutralism seems to be developing now. Cheers mate

The bolded is what most Tanoids here can never comprehend.

barcanista:
Watching the APC caucus of distinguished Senators and Honorable Members of House of Representatives was a shame to behold on Thursday June 26, 2015. It was a shame that the ruling party couldn't put their act in order. More painful is that the incompetence of the ruling party is having effect on the Nigeria State. Here are some observations...

1. SP Saraki and Speaker Dogara Are Naïve, Arrogantly and Ignorant
The positions of Senate and House Leaders and their deputies, and the Chief Whips and their deputies are not appointive offices. It has never been heard in any parliament that the presiding officer determines who occupies these principal offices. For the record, the Majority leader is supposed to be a core party loyalist. He is the primary link between his party and members of the party in the parliament, the majority leader schedules business on the floor by calling bills from the calendar and keeps members of his party advised about the daily legislative program. The Chief Whip is also supposed to be a core party man that enforced discipline on erring party members that conducts themselves against the interests of the party in the parliament. By tradition, the majority party chooses the Majority leader, Chief Whip, Deputy Leader and Deputy whip, while members of the party in the parliament ratify. If the APC says they want Lawan as Senate Leader and Gbajabiamila as House Leader, all that has to be done is for the APC members of the Senate and the House respectively to either ratify the names sent to them by the party leadership or they (members) elect who they want. For SP Saraki and Speaker Dogora to insist on a particular pattern that is not acceptable to majority of their party parliamentarians shows that both men are arrogantly naive. This can't be accepted in any democracy, and accepting it will set a bad precedent for this country.

2. Saraki And APC Have Done Nigeria A Great Disservice
Senator Ali Ndume was indicted in November 2011 to have link with BH. The arrested BH Spokesman Ali Konduga had maintained that Sen Ndume had paid him to send threatening text messages http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-15829203. There are call evidence of Ali Ndume's phone exchange with Boko Haram which the undistinguished Senator admitted after it was extracted by an agent from the Israeli based Digital Forensic http://www.vanguardngr.com/2012/12/court-admits-fresh-evidence-linking-ndume-to-boko-haram/. As at the time of the election, Senator Ndume was facing Terrorism trial. Instead of APC to give their ticket to competent hand they gave it to the same Ali Ndume. He was elected thanks to the change propaganda and became a Senator once again rather than clearing his name. Senator Saraki out of selfish interest compounded the woes of Nigerians by imposing an alleged Boko Haram Sponsor as Nigeria's Senate Leader. What a disservice by APC and Bukola Saraki. A shame to Nigeria that the Leader of the Upper House is facing terrorist charges.

3.APC Deserve No Sympathy
APC rode on propaganda and blackmail. It is a gathering of people of different ideologies, different worlds and men of questionable integrity. It isn't filled with men with common goals like what a political party should be. It is filled with men whose sole ambition was to form a consortium to send Jonathan back to Otuoke and GRAB power. APC as a party also encouraged rascality and impunity in the last National Assembly. APC commended and encouraged Tambawal and the 7 rascals PDP Governors for their anti-party activities. It is a shame but the APC encouraged impunity and even rewarded it by giving them political fortune. Now that APC is at the receiving end of the whole thing, and even receiving worse, I don't think it deserve any symparthy. It is a shame that the presiding officers of both Chambers are hell-bent on by-passing common sense just to subvert the interest of majority of the party. At least in 2011 the PDP had their way in choosing the four principal offices when they lost the two presiding offices due to APC instigated rebellion in the House. I understand the plight for the APC but I have no sympathy for the party. I hope they put their act in order.

4. SP Saraki and Speaker Dogara Deserve To Be Served
In the last dispensation, Senator Saraki and Honorable Dogara were part of the new PDP that fought alongside the opposition to cause a wreck to the Jonathan's re-election ambition and the PDP structure. Now they are back to do to their former comrades-at-arm what they did to their former party. If Saraki and Dogara think they will enjoy the support and privileges from the PDP on the long run, they should have their heads examined. The PDP will make a grave mistake by rewarding Saraki and Hon Dogara on the long run. Already PDP has got the Deputy Senate Presidency, the party should understand that Saraki and Dogara need them more that they need those men. In the event that APC wield their big stick on them, the PDP should have in mind the treachery of both men and serve them at latter date. Yes I supported Saraki and Dogara for Senate President and Speaker respectively so as to nullify the APC's arrangement because Nigeria cannot be run like a one-man's business, it is not because they were worth it. That is in the past now. Saraki and Dogara betrayed PDP to benefit from APC, now they turned around to betray APC but must not benefit from PDP

5. APC Should Not Hold Nigeria To Ransom
Nigerians are tired with one day one trouble for APC and their chieftains. The business of Governance is already suffering all because nothing has started. The auto-piloting system that Buhari is running isn't helping matters. Nigerians are tired of hearing APC Governors and other elected officers talking about partisan politics rather than performing the role they were elected to. Enough is enough. APC has already wasted one month of our National life, we can't afford the luxury of wasting important time on the troubles of the ruling party

From a strong APC fan.
You are just spot on. I quite agree with everything you've said Bacanista. I swear everything except number 3.

If that'll rock her boat then fine.

Guy arrange this your news na, why e be like dreadlogs?

I think Seun should open a branch office of Nairaland in Taraba state in order to encourage the people to register. They should just go to the office and fill the form manually on paper.

Stuff like this makes me to reduce the rate a which I go to church day by day.

Too bad.
