This how politics is played.

Northern president, northern electoral umpire.

South West president, south west electoral umpire.

This was Good luck Jonathan greatest undoing, when he refused to change the INEC chairman and replace him with an Ijaw man

no matter how pdp may be worst, they followed due processes during their time. Obasanjo never use yoruba as inec chairman and yaradua don't use Northerner as inec chairman. Same with gej. Buhari came and change everything, and many people are applauding him

Nigeria politics is evolving and advancing.

If you must succeed in the game you have to play the winning strategy.

Obj, yara'adua and Jonathan were behind in the game.

I am sure Good luck was tired of that seat, because he willingly gave his arsenals to his enemies to fight and defeat him.

He was given a double edge sword but he couldn't use it to fight his enemies.

He was not the strongman the southern minorities really wanted to represent them,he got there by fiat.

The south south minorities missed a great opportunity to put things right.

goodluck was a complete fool, despite all the warning signals that Jega gave him and all the damming intelligence reports he still stuck with Jega till that one finished him . he gave too much respect and recognition to the opposition and feared them more than anything.

Flashback: How Bola Tinubu spoke highly of Buhari in 2015, named PDP ‘Poverty Development Party

National leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu had during the presidential campaign in 2015, referred to President Muhammadu Buhari as the only solution for the security and economic challenges facing Nigeria.

During a mega presidential rally, the former governor of Lagos State recalled how some powerful nations in the world returned to army generals when they were challenged, saying “Major General Buhari would revive Nigeria’s economy”.

He named the current opposition People’s Democratic Party, PDP as the “Poverty Development Party saying they had nothing to offer.

His words at the time were; “Every nation has a period of their own challenges, when America was challenged, they turned to one great man, their ex-military general, General Eisenhower. When the French were challenged, they turned to their general, Charles de Gaulle.

“When Britain was challenged, they turned to their general. Today, Nigeria is economically and physically challenged so we turn to General Muhammadu Buhari. He is the right man for the job. If you talk about military experience, he has it abundantly, he has courage, simplicity, he has it abundantly.

“If you talk about great determination, a combination of vision and ability to perform, honesty and integrity, he has it abundantly.

“I laugh when the incapable government, ‘Poverty Development Party’ PDP were talking. They have nothing again to say, they now want to question the qualifications of General Buhari and look for his certificate”.

Following the manifestos in 2015 which projected the APC presidential candidate as a ‘saviour’, Buhari defeated the then incumbent president, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan with Nigerians expecting a total change in security and economy.

How is the advancing of our politics while our governance is retreating into worse extreme poverty, higher unemployment, hyperinflation, insecurity, collapsed infrastructure etc, of any benefit to you?

“The worst illiterate is the political illiterate, he doesn’t hear, doesn’t speak, nor participates in the political events.

He doesn’t know the cost of life, the price of the bean, of the fish, of the flour, of the rent, of the shoes and of the medicine, all depends on political decisions. The political illiterate is so stupid that he is proud and swells his chest saying that he hates politics.

The slowpoke doesn’t know that, from his political ignorance is born the prostitute, the abandoned child, and the worst thieves of all, the bad politician, corrupted and flunky of the national and multinational companies.”

there is nothing moral about politics ,it is all about power and we are even seeing it evidently even in countries where democracy originated . Every government in power uses all its available powers and resources legally to stay in power . What Goodluck failed to do all because he was more concerned about the feelings of Nigerians but was legally capable to do is what APC ,Buhari and Tinubu are doing just to remain in power . If he had sacked Jega ,nothing would have happened ,APC would have lost and the worst is they will go to court. Now the consequences of the so called moral good he did then has now destroyed PDP for good and for ever . He was warned repeatedly that Jega had been compromised but he kept saying Nigerians will say,Nigerians will think bla,bla . Now see the mess Nigeria is into all be aise he was weak. I can't and won't blame any government in power that uses all legal means to remain in power ,very soon majority of PDP senators and Govs will move en masse to APC . Kalas that is the end of pdp. He may have been a good man but he was a very weak political leader

Don’t blame any government in power that uses all legal means to remain in power and worsen the mess Nigeria is into.

Is that how you show you are not weak like Jonathan?

If you’re not weak then why did you fail to work with others to prevent this mess from happening?

Politics is a game of numbers and to many people it is a dirty game only the dirty can play it skillfully and win . I DONT LIKE TINUBU AND I HAVE ALWAYS SAID THIS SINE HIS FIRST TERM AS A GOVERNOR BUT WE CANT REFUSE TO Accept HIS POLITICAL MASTERY OF THE NIGERIA POLITCAL SCENE AND POLITICIANS .
let me ask you a question ,do you think if Tinubu was the president when gej was and he was contesting against aan like Buhari that Tinubu will allow a man like Jega to conduct that election huh? Look at the way Tinubu is presently destabilising the opposition and breaking them down bit by bit . I don't like him but that doesn't mean I must. Not admit and accept that he learnt from history and he is using it against his opposition . Wike will cripple and crumble PDP, the so called coalition they are doing will not bite anything .

exactly what I am saying, he was trying too much to please the opposition and to please Nigerians, THERE IS NO WAY YOU WILL PLEASE THE OPPOSITION AND YET REMAIN IN POWER.
look at what obj did, look at how reckless buhari govt was without any regard for the opposition and that is exactly the same way and manner tinubu is treating the opposition, when you start listening to the opposition and start doing everything they say all in the name of trying to look like a true democrat , they will just wash and brush you aside .
