Thanks so much. The guy na strong man. I don check am. Na men full this government, do anyhow you see anyhow.

tinubu and his folks are charlatans. It is hard to fathom that this same Shettima wore sneakers to a major conference before the election just to generate controversies. Tinubu was also speaking in tongues and suffered multiple gaffes before the election just to distract us. Shettima miraculously transformed to "best dressed" and Tinubu regained his demeanor after they both won the election. They know that politics in Nigeria has nothing to do with substance. It has always been attack on your personality to gain cheap popularity.

And unfortunately Nigerians who should know better fall cheaply every time abi? We will trend it with memes and witty lines and at the end they just read our comments caustic or not and laugh at our gullibility!

NaijaSumigan:
Yet, corruption is destroying each and everyone of them... They wear suits, dressed up like people wey get sense but ordinary corruption is capable to make them behave as demons which truly they are.

Amongst all of them present tonight, hardly will you see two who isn't a thief... There brain's are wired to steal, they don't have what it takes to drive a Nation to a place of Glory.

Fools gathering! Bunch of thieves including their royals.

Where two or three Africans are gathered, this is the result, don’t think you are any different

If you are reading this and the color of your skin is brown, I’m here to tell you that you are naturally corrupt and there is little difference between you and the men described here

All you need is an opportunity to show yourself

Isn't Fashola a lawyer anymore? Been a while I saw him attend any of this NBA conference.

All lawyers cannot be there all the time.

Coincidentally, NBA stands for National Basketball Association.

There are just few of you with solid ratiocination. Unfortunately, democracy is a game of number.

The 'speaking in tongues' and the many, many gaffes were not part of a carefully choreographed show. The man was and still is, ill. By the time a man passes the three score and ten marker, disease becomes a constant companion - that's just the way it is for most men. BAT had some serious health challenges during that election and some of those challenges are permanent e.g. the hand tremors are a clear sign of Parkinsons. These ailments do not just go away.

BAT still struggles mightily with his (declining) powers of speech. He still says things that are incomprehensible. Its just that Nigerians are no longer really interested in making an issue out of this...and the man's handlers are also doing everything they can to manage his media appearances and limit the damage.

BAT's spin doctors desperately want to sell the idea that he is a wizard at strategy, a chess grandmaster who has everything planned out - a man always two steps ahead of everyone else. Unfortunately for them, this simply isn't true.

He is now a politician and not a lawyer anymore.
Maybe when he is able to do what he promised 200 million Nigerians in 2015, he will return to his roots as a lawyer. Until then he is lost in political balablu propaganda.

State Governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, has said the only way the country can have stable electricity is to vote out the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from power in next year’s general election.

Fashola, who gave the counsel while marking his 2,600 days in office at an elaborate ceremony held at the Blue Roof of the Lagos Television premises, said electricity crisis in the country is caused by lack of ideas and insincerity of purpose on the part of Federal Government.

He said,” Yes I agree with you that it is possible to generate electricity and to make sure that everybody in this country has electricity, we have to do the right thing. But you know what, the only way that you and I will have electricity in this country will be to vote out the PDP.

Tinubu remains a wizard at political strategy even though he was and remains a cluelessly incompetent administrator.

Confirmedzombie:
Where is Gringory Peter Obi ?

He is at Tinubu’s bedside in France where he is helping the president recover, just as he helped him get his ebilokan turn to continue Buhari’s APC shege that he alone sold as messianic change.

jameshankss:
Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, has said he is sure the candidate of Labour Party (LP), Mr Peter Obi, would lose the 2023 presidential election. Soludo said he would not submit to the bullying of Obi’s supporters, who recently descended on him for addressing issues in the state.

The governor made the comments in a lengthy write-up personally authored, with the title, “History Beckons, and I Will Not Be Silent (Part 1).”

Soludo said Obi was inadvertently making the pathway to victory much easier for the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, and at the same time, toying with the destiny of millions of Ndigbo.

But the chief spokesperson for the Labour Party Presidential Campaign, Yunusa Tanko, accused Soludo of being sponsored by some unknown persons to weaken the base of the party in the South-east.

The former CBN governor had been under intense attack for close to a week for dismissing Obi’s investment in the state as amounting to nothing, during a television interview.

Soludo said in the write-up, “My attention has been drawn to some of the tirades on social media following my frank response during an interview on Channels TV regarding the ‘investments’ Mr. Peter Obi claimed to have made with Anambra State revenues.

“Sadly, several of the comments left the issue of the interview to probe or suggest motives, inferred from my response on ‘investment’ that I am opposed to Peter Obi’s ambition and, therefore, committed a ‘crime’ for which the punishment is internecine abuse and harassment, even to my family.

“Everyone knows that I don’t follow the winds or one to succumb to bullies, or shy away from a good fight especially, when weighty matters of principles and future of the people are involved.”

Soludo said he had urged Obi to return to his former party, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), to actualise his presidential bid. He added that he had always told the LP candidate to his face that he was not capable of winning the 2023 presidential election, especially, under LP, which had neither a councillor nor a local government chairman.

Soludo said Obi was not just his friend, but also his brother, but despite that, they have their political differences.

He stated, “For full disclosure, let me state that Peter Obi and I are not just friends, we call ourselves ‘brothers’. But we have political differences: he left APGA for PDP after his tenure as governor, while I have remained in APGA since 2013.

“During the last two governorship elections in Anambra in 2017 and 2021, he led the PDP campaigns but APGA won landslide in both elections. By the way, in 2016, he visited and proposed that I defect to PDP and contest the 2017 election against the incumbent Willie Obiano, but I declined.

“After my victory in November 2021, he called to congratulate me, as I did to him in 2010. That is the Anambra way: we fight fiercely during campaigns but share drinks at the next social events. After all, it was the Great Zik of Africa, who taught us that in politics, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies but only permanent interests.”

Arguing that Obi’s presidential bid would only work in favour of Tinubu, Soludo said, “Indeed, if I were Asiwaju Tinubu, I would even give Peter Obi money as someone heading one of the departments of his campaign, because Obi is making Tinubu’s pathway to victory much easier by indirectly pulling down PDP.”

Obi, according to Soludo, would only deplete the votes of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and pave the path for an APC victory.

He stated, “The current fleeting frenzy, if not checked, will cost Ndigbo dearly for years. The South-east has the lowest number of votes of any region, but it is also the only region where the presidential race might be a four-way race (it is a two-way race in the other five regions) thereby, ensuring that our votes won’t count in the making of the next president of Nigeria.

Tinubu didn't regain anything. He wasn't acting then. The difference between then and now is that he's not traveling, holding meetings and talking on the road back-to-back.
Such routine or schedule can have its effects on anyone, talk more of a person of Tinubu's mental and physical fragility.
Since then how many impromptu talks or speeches have you gotten from him?
Or does his policies tell any story about a man who has regained his demeanor?

How's the gold theft her business? Northern intellectuals should focus on that

Most sensible Southerners are tired of the Nigerian Federation and you can see it from their body language and talk

Fair point.

The man may be a wizard in the politics of poor, highly indebted, unstable, 4th world cassava republics. But his political wizardry isn't what matters to Nigerians. What matters (or should matter) to Nigerians is his wizardry at building institutions, keeping prices down, keeping criminals off the streets and highways, fixing bad roads, building schools etc. And as you pointed out, the man is hopeless at these things.

DEN OF THIEVES.

NOI woman of substance
