When Tinubu picked Muslim place holder, they did not say anything, they did not see Muslim Muslim because the placeholder was weak political, but as soon as Tinubu picked a formidable and powerful Muslim running mate, madness enter their head, hell break lose..


I'm so glad and happy with Shettima, Tinubu as usual used his superior and strategic political skills to defy the odds and backlash, he focused squarely on winning strategy instead of religion.

Religious bigots and hypocrites will make their noise and eventually move...

Na so

[quote author=Subsidywise20 post=114684003]They won the election handsmomely, the millitary annulled it.

Also, in 1993, Christians and Muslims were divided just as they are now (and Abiola had made some anti-Christian comments in 1986/7.) But by 1993

1.Nigerians were tired of army rule (other African countries, including all our neighbours, were leaving millitary rule and ending up as democracies, and we were sitll under uniform?)

2. Abiola had connections across the country, and even in the army.

3. SDP was backed by the NLC, civil society groups, and CAN , which saw it as symphatetic to their rights, as well as most of the media.

But the divisions were there, and the annullment unleashed them, BEAUTIFUL

So every Christian in Nigeria is ibo..

Yes, because he was a placeholder. He wasn't even that enthusiastic about taking the job full time. Also, Obi too choose a placeholder, same religion, and no waves were made because , again...placeholder.

Yes, there is nothing wrong with choosing a Muslim-muslim ticket. Judge candidates by their ability, not religion.

But this is Nigeria, where someone's access to benefits from government, some benefits, depends a whole lot on who is in power, plus for most of our history, president and vice has been split between the two major religions.

one would have expected people to be happy that Tinubu made a wrong choice.

That one should have just helped himself so that when good presidents are mentioned in history, his name will be there not when terrible presidents are mentioned. He had all the chance and good will
