but wait oooh where is madam remi in all this sef, she don hide fave waiting for ancestor to enter aso rock then all the remaining demons in her will wake up, shioorr

Nothing to respect about them...Tinubu served into their hands.When everyone was warning him,did he listen?
He should keep his ordeal to himself.

Mooh247:
You have to respect North when it comes to politics, they just killed APC for Atiku another Fulani man

IPIGMODS:


Good for democracy to disqualify someone based on age even though the constitution says the person is qualified?
See an example of the selfish shallow zero IQ so called youths in Nigeria.

How has Buhari's age helped our country talkless of someone that is older than him

I think we Yorubas are the problem. Why should we be talking of Tinubu when we have Osibanjo. Osibanjo is more credible.

Amotolongbo:
Used Oyegun, another southerner to do the deal.

Northerners are indeed good politics game players

Enough of this deification of the north. When GEJ won 2011 election, the North was still a part of this country.

All the Tinubu urchins have suddenly disappeared from all social media. I went to Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Nairaland etc not seeing them like before.. where have they gone

Oyegun has not said that.... Check out his speech at the delivery of his report to APC Chairman.... See his speech below, inter alia.

- APC

It is our pleasure to be here with you today to present our reports. I will be very brief.

Having been a tenant in this building before, Mr chairman, I came in I thought I was in the wrong premises. I want to say you have performed something short of a miracle in this building. And I can thread properly now that I am in the secretariat of the governing party.

I thank you for the assignment that you gave us an enormous and how short time has been. I know the environment on which you took over. And so, we are quite happy to do as much as we could to make the work of the party lighter.

We had the privilege of being inaugurated by you. Precisely on the 30 of May and we immediately started work that very day after a brief meeting. I will just summarize the main thing.

First, we had 23 member aspirants that we interacted with. And my first comment is that we were very inoccupant. Those were 23 that presented themselves. We had alot of others, prominent Nigerians both within and outside the country that had applied but for whatever reason, could not proceed with their applications.

The point I want to make is the quality of the people that wants to govern this country.

The second point I want to make is that, we were surprised at the active participation of the youthful members of the party. Some of whom really surprised us at to what they have accomplished in life, their understanding of the situation in this country and why they want to have the privilege of governing this country. What was important was that they so believed in the country and the party that they were able to pay the sum that some of us considered princely handsome to participate in the process. And I think the party ought to path itself in the back for them.

Our report is basically simple and short. I don't want to beat about the bush. There were two aspects to it.

The basic constitutional qualifications for you to aspire to be a president of the federal Republic of Nigeria. That was simple and straight forward.

And on that basis, every single aspirants that presented himself qualified. Because it was basic and simple. But we are a governing party. And we are keen on continuing the process and replacing at the proper time with our president with yet another member of the party.

So, the ability to lead, background, experience and your understanding of the Nigerian situation, your ideas as to how issues, difficulties and problems can be addressed and how the country can be moved forward became a critical consideration. It is on that basis who are you, what have you achieved, your understanding of the nation and things you can contribute to move the nation forward. It was on the basis of that we made our final shortlist. I don't list the names. I think I will leave that to you. We have a shortlist which brought the number down to 13. We could have cut it a little shorter. But we wanted a pedigree with a longer element to surface. For them to be seen whether to be noticed, who knows? We hand them over to the party. And it is for the party to decide who their preferred candidate will be.

It is also an opportunity to showcase the kind of people that exist within the party with their usefulness and kind of experience. Let the world know that this is a party that cares for the young and a party when we say the young can aspire, we really mean it. And this has been showcase in the report that we have written.

I will conclude by saying that we only drew a word of caution. That there is this cleavage that I gradually becoming the Centre stage in a national discourse. As between the north and the south and the presidency. And we just want to advise strongly that the party should please think of it in making its decision, address it and let it influence their thoughts because it has its own implications.

Outside that, just on behalf of the wonderful colleagues you gave me to work with. I want to thank you very much. It was a sensitive assignment, a challenging assignment but very interesting assignment on which all of us have profited immensely from which the party will also profit.

Against every aspirants, the issue of consensus and it is pleasant surprise that 98 to 99% agreed that the party is supreme. And that whatever the party finally decides with proper consultation, they will likely to accept. We had only one exception who said yes, he will accept consensus so long as it is build on him. So, I think it is a point that needs to be made and emphasize. So, that gives you a lot of leeway in the days and hours ahead to trim down even more drastically. But, finally we think you should not be afraid for a contested primary if anybody insist on the contest.

I thank you very much Mr chairman. It is now my honor and privilege on behalf of the committee set up to present to you the report.

Thank you.

Malory:
Oyegun will be on the good side of history if he truly disqualified old and entitled men that has destroyed our country. This is good for our democracy

He also disqualified the Christian extremist, Osinbajo!

Malory:
Oyegun will be on the good side of history if he truly disqualified old and entitled men that has destroyed our country. This is good for our democracy

why are you so silly, you pray to be useless and unproductive at 70? It will be hypocritical and vindictiveness, because buhari himself was not disqualified at 72 when he contested. Atiku is already 75, he's pdp candidate.

Monday is almost here by God's grace

bravehost4u:
Tinubu does not need them, after all he made Buhari president and can also make himself

You are the greatest liar on earth. How many votes did Tinubu garner for Buhari from the SW in 2015 and 2019?

Mr tinubu have no single respect for South East region that of the places he has visited during his consultation, he refused to visit a single part in the south east. Afonjas should ask what led to abiola losing his mandate??

...about to repeat again.

All na politics, I can bet he wasn't screend out. I sha think Nigerians should think twice before we make nothern mistake of electing another desperate politician. Look how the previous one turned out.

I really like what’s playing now.

Have the younger politicians been better than the older ones? The answer is NO.
It's not about age but about capacity and leadership qualities.
When you have a society full pf greedy, selfish and illogical persons, how do you expect to have leaders that are not?
Are you leaders not a microcosm of your society? Your leadership is simply a true reflection of your society.
End of story.

It is a revenge time for oyegun. Tinubu frustrated this man and made sure that him oyegun was thrown out like a dog. Now Oyegun go show him pepper.
One bad turn deserves another!!!!!

Xscape1993:
I said that he will never smell Aso Rock. Never!

Never never

Mind you politics is a game of number of which Northern is on the right track.

I don't understand all this thing o. Meanwhile, on thiefnibu gbola I stand

Jagaban is youthful and na!. Maradona things!!!

Tinubu is a youth at heart

Go home, old man

Buhari

this thread is making me laugh hard.
Whatever happens. Peter Obi must be president in 2023. Mark it.

If Tinubu dies today, na Buhari and APC killam. Make them give this man ticket naa. What part of "it's my turn to rule" don't they understand?
How many of us are still solidly standing on Tinubu's manhood? My legs still de gidigba. No Tinubu no primaries. We the gbegiris have spoken
