Tinubu is a great man. He is one of the reasons why some media houses still makes money. Everything about him sells papers that is why they make up news about him everyday. We claim this man has been de mystified, that he is insignificant and inconsequential yet he's making news headlines everyday like he's holding a top political office.

agabusta:


His mistake is greed and penchant to dominate others. Supporting PMB is not a mistake. Anybody is free to support whoever they believe in, so also you.

Even Awo and Zik were known to dominate during their political carriers. You don't want to build a structure only for people like Fayemi to suddenly seize control and hand it over to their fulani masters.

QuotaSystem:
Tinubu had better tone down on his attempt to go rogue, otherwise he will be just as relevant as his fellow drug pusher, Kashamu by 2019, going by present political permutations.

Tinubu is loved and respected, but he should not bite more than he can chew by trying to assume a 'god' status within the APC.

So your messianic Buhari knew him as a drug pusher yet solicited his support? Jonathan thought he had all his political permutations right before 2015.

agabusta:
PMB is the president and he will never be a puppet of Tinubu. PMB has already differed to him on a lot of fronts. The success or failure of the administration solely rests on PMB. It is his name that will resounds in history for years to come.

Tinubu should quit this mentality of a partner president. There can never be two masters in a ship.

And is Tinubu struggling for the presidency with Buhari? Your claim that the success of failure of the administration solely rests on Buhari, then why do people still continue to partially lay blames on Tinubu for supporting Buhari whenever PMB's government does something wrong? The same Tinubu who had always respected Buhari even before the coming of APC that some people on this board had ridiculed then for being subservient to Buhari even when it was Buhari who needed him then.

Make una continue, Tinubu is evil now and Buhari is the all awaited Messiah abi?

Fayemi 16-0. If Buhari is hedging his bet on Fayemi taking over South west politics as his front man , then Buhari is truly a dullard. Fayose alone will decimate Fayemi and his legions

Isn't the lady there the Lagos state deputy governor? I guess she is representing Ambode as he is out of the country. The media needs to stop making stories up

realglobe:
shoutout to the new yoruba leader fashola for living up to the billing.. 2nd tenure will be difficult for Ambode.. lol

Fashola as a sitting governor with more funds at his disposal then couldn't deliver his own LGA/Ward to Buhari or APC. Forget all the Abuja flexing, Fashola has no political structure whatsoever in Lagos.

In as much as this is still very much in the realm of speculation as those involved have not really drawn their daggers out for all to see but Does Fashola have a political structure/base in Lagos? No. He couldn't even deliver his own Surulere local government for APC. If Ambode continues with his performance, Fashola will have no say whatsoever in Lagos poli
tics.

Fayemi(Mr 16-0) cannot win a councillorship seat in his own Ekiti state. So who is deceiving who?

Amosun also face a strong succession battle in Ogun state if Tinubu aligns with Osoba and there is also a Gbenga Daniel that still has considerable followership in Ogun state.

At the end of the day the loser will still be Buhari and his allies. If I were Tinubu, I will be happy with their scheming to get me out of the party because I doubt if any good can come out of this present administration which is centred solely on power struggle, greed and nepotism. APC as it is now is already dead waiting to be buried in 2019. Buhari should wave the presidency bye by 2019.

Ambo, silent achiever/performer

Babatundecash:
You need to visit the hospital for proper checkup.....AKETI is more popular and marketable than any other candidates APC have in Ondo state.....Aketi popularity caught across the whole 18 LGA of the state.....before the Primary election,I was opportune to follow Aketi to 13 out of the 18 LGA We have here in Ondo state and I Know how he is being welcome by the delegates with a whole heart....Akoko North East LGA(IKARE) Was the only Area Aketi was attacked as far back in the month of June.....Abraham is not known in any part of the state Except in Ikare Akoko,Abraham only became popular the very day He was endorsed by BAT....Abraham would have come after Aketi,Oke,Boroffice,Alasoadura if not for Tinubu endorsement.....B4 the Primary election,we in the Aketi campaign organising committee were able to camp 1,200 delegates over night from various LGA of the state....It was 12 delegates from each ward across the state....here in Owo LGA,we have 11 wards multiply by 12=132,out of the 132 delegates from Owo LGA Aketi was only able to buy 119 to his side while some 5 bastards from Iyere ward 10 went in the way of boroffice and the remaining choose Ekungba and Dr.Ayorinde over Aketi......Out of the 1200 delegates we camped overnight he have 80% from Ose due to Adelegbe factor,52%From Akure south due to Abena factor,48% from Idanre,72% From Odigbo,60% from Idanre,80% from Ondo west,over 95% from Owo(his country home) and so on but 669 was what we were able to get from the 1200 delegates we camped overnight....I was in tears when I see some of my colleagues going for Olusola oke #150,000 and Abraham #100,000 to betray Aketi but we thank God that 669 was enough to make us smile,we lost okitipupa in the dying minutes to Abraham just because Dr.Paul betrayed Aketi in the dying minute.....it will be insane for anyone to say A man who defeated Tinubu's annointed candidates and othe 22 aspirants including 2 serving senators,house of rep members,Ex-national and state assembly members,ex-commissioners to emerge as the party flag bearer as not being popular......the election was hitched free,it was broadcasted live on NTA,TVC and some other tv stations,Adaba FM air it live out of the 3,000 delegates that are to vote only 2,700+ were accredited....after accreditation in the hall delegates we move straight to the second hall for their voting....the security agents on ground at that very day were even more than the total numbers of delegates.....Gov.Badaru really tried and the election was free and fair that people from kano can watch from their NTA station......Aketi is the next Governor come Nov.26....this is APC and not ACN Where an individual can just handpick a candidatae.....Aketi got the backing of the president,VP,sp,speaker house of rep,all APC govs and ministers this time around....to crown it all Mimiko and Pdp popularity in the state is nothing to write home about...go to the street and here what people are saying about mimiko and pdp nothing but all evil.....OTUN!!! OTUN!!! Ni ooo!!! OWO AGBE WA OOO.

Are you trying to say that Aketi does not need BAT's support again? He might have defeated Tinubu's candidate in the primaries but he will lose the main election if he continues in his confrontational approach to Tinubu cos he will sabotage all Aketi's effort and the Ondo APC will be divided and distracted paving the way for Jegede's emergence as the governor even if Buhari and all other APC big wigs are supporting him(Aketi). The same way people are 'complaining' about Mimiko is the same way they are disenchanted with Buhari, so Buhari guarantees no success for Aketi except he is planning to rig the election.

modath:

This is as good as spending the day with Tinubu.... Aketi is smart, he knows when to fight and when to retreat...

There is a difference between cowardice and astuteness... not all battles are worth fighting, even if one manages to win, if the collateral damage is too grave, sentry duty will be heavily compromised....

One fact remains, Ondo is APC's to lose.. Edo? I know not!!

True

Is that Godwin Obaseki wearing a face cap in the last picture?

Isn't that Obaseki(Edo APC candidate) wearing a face cap in the group photograph? I thought I read somewhere that Tinubu has been sidelined?

Akeredolu a.k.a Aleti is leading.....every other candidate is a learner....Aketi has won this.....quote me anywhere




Aketi has demystified Tinubu and his God son Olusegun Abraham


Somebody that knows somebody should tell Tinubu that Aketi is the presumptive APC Governorship candidate for Ondo State.

How has he de mystified Tinubu. Won't he need Tinubu's support(financially) for the election proper?

Nailing Saraki is #JusticeforKwarans. Saraki deserves to be punished and humiliated for all his attrocities to us Kwarans especially non Ilorin's. Saraki does not deserve any God fearing man or woman's sympathy. The thief is already grooming his son Seni to carry on with the Saraki thieving dynasty.

akinyeleaa:

Exactly, he should face Buhari if he feels he is being persecuted, at least it is FG that is persecuting him and not Tinubu.

he is a coward, simple.

Good read. There is nothing distinguished about Saraki so he will not resign not until he is humiliated from that seat.

Nailing Saraki is #JusticeforKwarans.

Make una dey lie to yourselves. Saraki is a big time thief and his already grooming his son(Seni) to take over from him the plundering of Kwara State.

I pity Kwarans!

On Saraki's charge sheet is Federal Government of Nigeria versus Dr Bukola Saraki. Tinubu is not the FG, Saraki should be bold enough to openly challenge PMB who heads the FG and stop looking to cheap sympathy which isn't working.

No law in Nigeria stops a Muslim/Muslim or Christian/Christian ticket. At least, Tinubu dropped his own ambition for the VP slot for the party to move ahead but a selfish and self-centred Saraki couldn't drop his own ambition even after his party had declared support for another.

Long live the king

The story looks too one-sided to be taken seriously by any objective mind. Even if this distastefully spiced lie is the truth, is the blogger trying to hurt Olamide's pride so that they can resume hostilities? The beef has been quashed and it should be a case of no victor no vanquish, rather than trying to portray one party as the winner and the other as a looser.

This is why many Nigerians are against the so called Social Media bill. Immediately you report what a big time politician does not like, he threatens you with Jail.

Jesusloveyou:
is it not d same deputy he apply for, so what now stop him to finish what he start, abi na he kill audu, in order to take his place?

what if he wanted to work with Audu being an elderly man and decides not to work with a young Bello? Bello and Faleke working together will be cat and mouse

I am surprised INEC and APC wants to force a candidate into an election that he has written to them to exclude his name.

So only 15000 people voted? Inec just wasted money for notin

Was it Tinubu who prepared the meal he alleged shared with Audu in the company of other APC leaders in Audu's own house? Tinubu and other APC leaders were only in Lokoja as Audu's guest on wednesday and Audu started complaining of stomach cramps on saturday. Hatred for Tinubu has eaten away some peoples brains

Nigerians and useless conspiracies. The question for any sane person to ask is; was it Tinubu(as it is being alleged) who prepared the meal Audu ate in his own(Audu's) house? Tinubu and other APC leaders were only in Lokoja on wednesday and we are being told that he started complaining of 'stomach cramps' on friday or saturday. Does it mean that Tinubu 'remote controlled' Audu's death from Lagos?

This is just a worthless propaganda from a PDP sponsored online outfit. Who stands to gain more if Audu did not survive the elections? APC or PDP the projected loser? As it is now, Audu's death is more of a blessing to PDP and a loss to APC. Even if we subscribe to this jaundiced allegation that he was poisoned, wouldn't the so called APC leader have waited till after the swearing in to do such an attrotious act to easily pave way for the deputy governor? I forgot that trentonline bloggers don't have brains

Jagaban

Saraki couldn't even escort the Emir back to his palace as the usual tradition. People in Ilorin are daring him to come for tomorrow's Jumuaah at the Central Mosque if he is so sure of himself. Tomorrow's humiliation will be worse than today's.

Where is that Chukwudi? See your oga receiving serious disgrace
