Tinubu the killer of democracy, what he understands is only to pick. Whatever you see on the ballots or eventual winners are all picked or will be picked by him. May God help Nigerians.

The attention that has been given to Peter Obi and El-rufai in this present Government shows something.

If he is insignificant and a paperweight, why the long epistle and revisionist story.

Anyways, defend politicians at your own peril.

My problem with you Yoruba's is, you guys are so shameless and hypocrites. This same EL Rufai you guys are insulting up and down fought his own people because of Asiwaju. He single handed stood for Tinubu against Buhari cabals. Do you think Tinubu stand a chance during 2023 Election if not because of people like Mallam El Rufai?
God bless you for this statement alone.

You see Yorubas..... hmmm!

The whole world will know them very soon.

Beer parlour talk as usual. Tinubu being seen as Buhari's godfather in the first two paragraphs is so hilarious.

please where did yorubas betray the Igbo?

It was nnamdi azikwe that betrayed AWOLOWO by going to form alliance with the north only to b fooled and given a ceremonial president

The case of Igbo n Yoruba just b like when the owner refuse to catch d thief n the thief is calling d owner thief

It is u igbos that formed alliance with the north n still collect black eye come back, na Una still dey call Yoruba betrayals
This article is about Tinubu and El Rufai, how did you manage to drag Igbo inside it. The person you quoted, how are you sure he or she is Igbo. You guys should take it easy, the unnecessary attack on Igbos in this forum is becoming so irritating. Why no face the topic.

We are not known for NOISEMAKING or CHESTBEATING, we are known for strategising and winning. And that's why we have produced 2 Presidents and a vice President since the return of democracy in 1999. Igbo the noisemaking DOGS haven't produced anything.

After you squandered your future with 97% of your revenue servicing debts, you're looking for a magic. Everybody cannot be a failure like Peter Obi who increased poverty in Anambra as Governor.
Remind us again, which party borrowed the most between PDP and APC from 2007 till date?

Don’t switch off your brain before typing.

Ọpọ ọrọ irọ ni ó kún inú rẹ.

Why did the tale teller omit Tinubu’s role in giving Yoruba votes to Buhari for his reelection in 2019?

Anyway, this is a lame attempt to rewrite history and erase El Rufai’s contribution to Tinubu’s 2023 primaries and general elections victory.

Maxymilliano:
The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has explained why he delegated some members of the party to respond to questions posed to him.
According to the former Lagos Governor, he adopted the delegation method “to show team-ship”.

Tinubu spoke at the Chatham House lecture titled: ‘Nigeria’s 2023 elections: In conversation with Bola Ahmed Tinubu’, monitored by The Nation.

At the lecture, Tinubu after his opening remarks, assigned Kaduna Governor Nasir El-Rufai to speak on how his (Tinubu-led) government would address insecurity and asked the Director of Strategic Communication of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council, Dele Aleke, to respond to the question on oil theft.

Tinubu also delegated a former Commissioner for Finance in Lagos State, Wale Edun, to respond to a question on how he (Tinubu) would boost the economy if elected.

Re: How Tinubu Countered El-Rufai’s ‘Coup’ - The Whistler by chaloskyx: 7:39pm On Mar 13, 2025
okay let me help you foolish dumb Nigerians think if obi and atiku are merging for 2027 kaduna is already secure why atiku won kaduna with 554,360 votes followed by BAT 399,293 then Obi 294, 494.
This means Obi and atiku are sure of 848,854 but this is where Apc plays the elrufai divide and rule card he comes in with another party splitting atikus and obis votes for himself giving BAT a win in Kaduna.

Summary is Elrufai, BAT are playing on your intelligence once they suceed Elrufai would be given a ministerial slot for 2027. this is the plan take it or leave it

The article was apt. Because I remembered when El-Rufai vacated his seat (then as governor) for Tinubu. I didn't know it was an afterthought. Aries people never forget betrayal. Betray an aries at your own risk!

Of course you will surely remind the feds of their promises but you won't ever remind your state Governor and local Government chairman of their own promises. Those ones are free to steal to stupor or sit down and do nothing for four years as long as they are from the land of the rising bitterness and criminals.
Re: How Tinubu Countered El-Rufai’s ‘Coup’ - The Whistler by Callosobruchus(m): 7:43pm On Mar 13, 2025
The cabals tried to stop Tinubu's 2023 success by inciting an artificially extreme hardship on the masses by creating artificial fuel and cash scarcity prior to the election. He still won.
Re: How Tinubu Countered El-Rufai’s ‘Coup’ - The Whistler by Apel147(m): 7:44pm On Mar 13, 2025
Will u keep quiet! Everyone in APC knew Tinubu would win the primaries that's why they kept postponing their primaries so Buhari's preferred candidate of Rotimi Ameachi could win, el rufai like everyother party member knew this and only queued behind jagaban knowing fully well he would win the apc primaries! Some of you because of hate for someone would twist the narrative to suit your bigoted ego.
Plus I am not Yoruba nor anything close to it!

The article also didn't add how Tinubu has bn using governor Uba Sani to fight El Rufai...Tinubu's obvious approach to fighting a political enemy is to create a storm against him in his own home...And due to his long stay in lagos politics (a place where every Nigerian can be found), he has a vast array of people he has influenced who come from almost every village in Nigeria and he can raise any of then to fight you from your village when he needs to... smiley 😀...he will just put money and influence behind one guy from your village and tell him to return home to do politics and cause massive problem for you

What has the producing two presidents and a vice president done for Yorubas?

Are we immune from APC’s clueless mismanagement of our country into worse poverty, hunger, inflation, insecurity, corruption etc? Even the eight years of Obasanjo presidency failed to fix the Lagos-Ibadan and Lagos-Abeokuta roads as well as the Badagry road.

If you are not a clueless tribal chauvinist, you should stop shooting yourself in the head.

edet19892015:
Unless you understand your role in society, you can never make any meaningful contribution.

According to the Greeks, they are three types of people on Earth,
1. The idiots,
2. The tribesmen, and
3. The citizens.


Studies show only 10% of Africans are citizens.
The remaining 90% are either tribesmen or idiots.

1. When the Greeks used the word "Idiot", they did not use it as a curse word.
Idiots are people who just don’t care.
If they sit for exams, they will cheat.
If they are in government they will steal.

An idiot does not care at all, if he eats bananas he throws the peels anywhere instead of putting them in a trash bin.

IDIOTS won't attend monthly neighborhood meetings. They won't pay security dues. They won't contribute to community development. Even when they see or know about something that will harm others in the community they won't report it. When they see/know/have something that will benefit their community they won't share.

In fact, Idiots don't care to register for or vote in an election, yet they complain the most. If they register to vote, IDIOTS will sell their votes for peanuts.

According to the Greeks, some societies have more idiots than tribesmen and citizens.

2. The next set of people are "Tribesmen", these are people that look at everything from the point of view of their tribe.

These are people that believe in you only if you are part of their tribe.
It can be terrible to have a tribesman as a leader, he will alienate the rest.

When the Greeks talk about tribes, it’s not just about ethnicity, they also consider religion, gang membership, group membership, party membership and even cult membership as a tribe.

A great percentage of Africans are tribesmen, because they view everything from the point of view of their tribes. They trust only their tribesmen

3. The last group are "Citizens".
These are people who like to do things the right way.
They will respect traffic light rules even if no one is watching them.

They drive within speed limits.
They respect the laws, and won’t cheat in exams.
In government, they won’t steal.
They are compassionate and give to others to promote their well-being.

Citizens often promote projects that benefit everyone.
The Greeks called this group "The Citizens".

Some countries have more citizens than tribesmen and idiots, others have so many idiots.

A tribesman can become a citizen through orientation.
And an idiot can become a citizen by training and constant enforcement of the law.

But things fall apart if you elect an idiot or tribesman to lead you if he has not been reformed.

Where do you belong? Are you an idiot, a tribesman or a citizen? Reflect on your life.
Reflect about your immediate community, city, state and nation.

It's all a compendium of lies and propaganda from Agbado Republic
So you believe Ambode told Elrufai that he'll deal with Tinubu in his second tenure?
So why has that narrative never come out even from Tinubu himself?
