Congratulations to Lawan as apparently he is the chosen one then
If the SE can't have it,then it should permanently reside in the north,the south is not synonymous with oil soup ppl
Chaii,more leaking pampers to the iragbiji drug pusher crew

Southerners’ Mumu no go ever do.

After 8yrs of Buhari administration these people are still cooking another 8 yrs for another northerner

If Bola Tinubu is deprived of this southern turn , then I and everyone I know well will vote Labour Party’s Peter Obi .

Enough of this divide and rule tactics

Shameless mad people. 4 days to the primaries, he started inaugurating committees. I suspect this is the succesor Buhari is talking about.
Lawan, Osibanjo, Amaechi - in that order. Iragbiji is out of the question.
There was a day I was watching Senate proceedings live on TV, and a senator was making contribution and mentioned buhari. this Ahmed lawan stopped proceedings and argued tooth and nail that buhari's name should and must be deleted before the senator would continue his contribution. I shouted "wow!" A whole senate president o. Wonderful.

Interesting

You can cry over a river

Thank God, there is no Yoruba on the list, apart from the deranged Femi Fani Kayode, meanwhile, it's important to note that he has been dashed to whoever wants him.

Who is deceiving this Lawan of a man? Lame duck senate president. Notwithstanding, this is Nigeria. Like joke, like joke, all the Northern delegates will vote for him, while the Southern aspirants shares their own vote. Fear North!

You can say that again, they filled the list as if it's a "Good Morning Lagos" Transport bus, bringing them to Lagos to hustle.

LIKE if you believe he's the next president
SHARE if you disagree

FFK has fell out with Yahaya Bello again, money matter

Congratulations to the appointees



Meanwhile, we're with Ashiwaju Jagaban.

Isn't FFK Pro-Yahaya Bello again?

Big mouthed Nigga can never pass on an opportunity to be fed. Give him food and he will do your bidding.
