Elrufai is like a fly that is following a dead body inside grave. The combination of beating he will collect in 2027 will enter into Guinness book of world records. He said he wanted to teach Lagos how to end godfatherism but it is his own successor in his state that is showing the people of Kaduna how to end Elrufai's godfatherism in Kaduna. Another man in Kwara that said he wanted to reduce Tinubu to an ordinary citizen, we know how Otoge tsunami blew him away in Kwara. Even Atiku, in Adamawa, the Governor has divided the Emirate and cut down Atiku's influence. Talk is cheap, you can talk from now till 2027 but remember Tinubu no dey talk, he acts.

Mallam Nasir El-Rufai was speaking at the second edition of the ArewaTechFest in Katsina

KennethOkonkwo:
Some thing has always been cooking for Tinubu since 1999......except if you are new to Nigerian politics.

The Man TINUBU has never lost any political war as always envisaged by his enemies

Do you remember FFK Article "It is finished for Tinubu" in 2021 when Oshiomole was removed as APC Chair and Ajimobi that was supposed to replace him died. Where is Tinubu today?...where is Oshiomole?...where are Gaidom,Fayemi,maechi &Co that plotted the removal

Tjra:
This is not a coalition.

Like I said earlier, it's just a gathering of 3 clowns.

This same El-Rufai will decamp back to APC two weeks after their collosal election defeat.

franchasng:
Yes oh Rufai ride on sir.



Tinubu must not continue to answer Nigeria's President in 2027. All well meaning Nigerians must come together to stop Bola Tinubu in 2027 or Nigeria will risk becoming Sudan and Libya combined, this is not a joke.


If all the Southeast Governors and Senators and Reps want let them all decamp to APC and also relocate to Bourdillion to live with Tinubu, it wont stop Igbo people from voting Tinubu out. We only need Northerners to do same; hold your region and make sure Tinubu doesn't get 10%, we Igbos will hold Southeast and Southsouth for the coalition. Tinubu is a gonner



And for Igbos, there is no going back on aligning fully with Atiku/North to oust Tinubu in 2027. All Igbos must work together to deliver Atiku at all cost. Igbos should declare their support for Atiku now.....Tinubu already showed his hatred for Igbos through his lopsided appointments and bias handling of Southeast affairs, including Nnamdi Kanu's case.

Nobody can deny the truth that Atiku loves Igbos.

Nobody can deny the truth that Tinubu does not like Igbos.

Tinubu has shown his disdain for Igbos for the whole world to see.

If Igbos refuse to work with Atiku to end Bola Tinubu's misrule, then Igbos should not blame anybody.

In Nigeria, for anyone to become President, two major tribes from Northern part and Southern part must work together to support that Presidential candidate; its either Hausa-Fulanis + Igbos or Hausa-Fulanis + Yorubas.

Tinubu understood this mathematics and he used it against Goodluck Jonathan by carrying the whole Yorubas to align with Buhari even when they know Buhari is a disaster waiting to happen.



So Igbos must play the same dirty game.....Peter Obi even though I know you are more than competent and capable, the reality of Nigeria's dirty politics is that you must stoop too low to conquer....so please dear Igbos...beg Peter Obi to not contest in 2027 or let him align with Atiku as his running mate.....Tinubu wanted to do it with Buhari but Buhari refused because of their Moslem Moslem religion.



Peter Obi should deputize Atiku......but the whole North must show seriousness in working seriously with Atiku and not allow Tinubu's dollar and vain political promises to sway them from working with Atiku.



This is the only way forward in 2027: ATIKU/OBI vs TINUBU/SHETTIMA


IGBOS WAKE UP!

maybet081:
Dreams are sweet untill you wake.
2027 is shege banza.

IPDGP:
Dead on arrival

Walai:
Say that to gen Z's that only witnessed 2015 election.
Tinubu supported Atiku in 2007, who won ?
He presented Ribadu as his Presidential candidate in 2011 who won ?
In 2023, He contested and lost his own state to an unknown party and was roundly defeated in the South.
The North pitied him and allocated some voted to him with the help of INEC server glitch and he narrowly escaped defeat.
Tinubu is over hyped.

OnyeObowo1:
Do u think tinibu will finish this tenure?
Ivory Coast is jubilation now for military coup

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.

Omoh, 2027 go strong.
Though I think Tinubu faced his biggest political battle in 2023 when he had Muslim-muslim ticket and had the APC and central bank all fighting him, they even made Naira scarce just to make the people hate APC more.

I doubt the opposition could unseat him now that power is in his hands

Ebuka78:
Which SS?


The tsunami of defection will start in middle of 2026


Forget about the story of decampees for now. There is a reason for that so people won't criticize the government and hardship

You should know what I am talking about.


Just set emotions aside and you will see the truth coming

Elrufai will show tinubu pepper we are about to have a one term president in Nigeria due to his bad leadership , for those that don't understand politics look down on elrufai it will shock you to know tinubu will never smell 2027 president.

SpecialAdviser:
Forget all those confusion in 2023. Buhari was already determined to rig for him. He still lost the election. Without rigging he cannot win a presidential election. He had a deal in 2015 that got fulfilled in that election

‘How Atiku saved Obasanjo from near bankruptcy before he emerged president’‘

A new book has revealed how former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakar, saved ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo from near bankruptcy before he emerged president in 1999.

According to the new book, entitled ‘’Too Good to Die: Third Term and the Myth of the Indispensable Man in Africa,’ Atiku made all his resources available for Obasanjo’s presidential campaign.

The book, written by former chairman of National Human Rights Commission, NHRC, Chidi Odinkalu, and Ayisha Osori, author of ‘’Love Does Not Win Elections,” also revealed how Obasanjo beat late Alex Ekwueme to the presidential ticket of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the 1999 election.

Quoting an account from Atiku, the authors said the trio of Ibrahim Babangida, Theophilus Danjuma and Abdulsalami Abubakar wanted PDP to adopt Obasanjo as their presidential candidate “because they considered him the best person for the job.”

“Implicit in their position was their belief that they knew how to manipulate Obasanjo and the fact that Obasanjo did their bidding in 1979. They felt secure that he could be managed again,” the authors wrote.

Atiku was reportedly asked to join a team to Ogun to inform Obasanjo that he was going to run for the highest office in the land.

“When Atiku and Obasanjo discussed the call to serve as president, Obasanjo said he could not be president because he was a nearly bankrupt ex-convict. Atiku, through General (Aliyu) Gusau, paid money into Obasanjo’s account to begin his financial rehabilitation.

“Head of State Abdulsalami Abubakar helped out by granting him an unconditional pardon. Atiku put everything he had at his disposal to support Obasanjo’s emergence as the PDP presidential candidate and, when he joined the ticket as the vice-presidential nominee, continued to make his assets available to Obasanjo and the campaign.

The first civilian governor of Lagos State, Alhaji Lateef Jakande, on Tuesday, said that the cancellation of the Lagos metroline project in 1985 was a major mistake and disservice to many Nigerians.

Jakande spoke in Lagos during the launch of a book which chronicled his life in politics and journalism.

The book, entitled, ‘Jakande: Leadership in Action’ is written by Dr. Bola Olaosebikan, who told the audience at the event that the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), was not responsible for the cancellation of the project.

Jakande said, “Reflecting on the metroline project, I think it is a major disservice to many Nigerians. Imagine how many people would have benefitted. It would have made life easier and changed the face of transport in Lagos. Whoever cancelled it or gave the advice towards its cancellation didn’t do right.”

The former governor asked Nigerians not to vote for unserious leaders in the coming polls, saying the elections presented Nigerians with a good opportunity that should not be squandered.

Expressing the hope that Nigeria would soon overcome its developmental challenges, Jakande said hope would be actualised faster if credible people emerged as leaders in the next dispensation.

He said, “This book comes at a very auspicious time in Nigeria’s history as we need leaders who can act. We need leaders who would not compromise the standards of good governance. God has blessed this nation the most in Africa, although we have not reached where we should be; with the right leaders, Nigeria would overcome its challenges.”
