None cares about the masses, it is about personal interest.

This man os always camouflaging and unreliable.

Brilliant writer but appears to lack principle
How is he different from Peter OBI in term of lack of principlehuh

Although,farouk kperogi is the most objective columnist I have ever seen.

If you have been reading his article you will no he is never a friend to neither BUHARI ,TINUBU OR APC.


he is always want to try to be objective that is why he will sound as if he is supporting APC ,TINUBU or BUHARI atimes and atimes sound like he hates them and he is supporting OBI and ATIKU.

To you people,whoever does that LACKS PRINCIPLE. You people definition of principle is sticking to just one thing even if it doesn't make sense both morally and logically.

If there is no way to ensure that elections reflect the will of the people, which effectively means free and fair elections to at least some extent, then there is zero possibility of snatching the poisoned mandate from the thief occupying the villa.

Kperogi is writing this trash for petrol dollars.

The coalition is getting stronger and stronger, and more great men and women are joining forces with the coalition movement to defeat tinubu in 2027.

The south East will not mind if OBI runs on the same ticket with Atiku just get the incompetent failure and clueless tinubu out of aso rock.

The OBIDIENTS are willing to push for the needed change provided Atiku will run for only 1 term.

Tinubu must go is key project for now.

A NEW NIGERIA IS POssible

The coalition stuff is putting the cart before the horse.

Their strategy is premise on selfishness, ego and mistrust.
Can everyone lay down their ambition, set the rules together and democratically elect a candidate by simple majority?

It like they haven't even bought the ingredients to make a cake, the cake is even yet to be baked , yet they are already calling for the portion of the cake.
That's one thing most of them lack and you can see how Tinubu successful sacrifice his ambition them to make APC snatched power in 2015. It's called delay gratification.

Look at elrufai just because you're left out of equation for just some few months or rather a year you started forming opposition, the intention as you right said we're very self centered. Look what Tinubu did when he was been silently ostracized by Buhari during his first term. He patiently endured it and stay with party he sacrifice so much for even till last breath. And eventually clinched the ticket then presidency.

All these featherweight politicians should go and learn politics from Tinubu 101, he's ahead of them 20x. Tell me in the history of Nigeria political dispensation have you seen when the opposition has seriously cajoled and lured into
Ruling party two years ahead of main election.

Well Power belongs to God, he give it to whom He pleases, let wait and see. May God spare our lives.

no need for big grammar or big talk .
AS LONG AS ATIKU REMAIN THE ARROW HEAD OF THAT NEW COALITION , IT IS AS GOOD AS DEAD .
i will rather abstain from voting or even vote for tinubu than to vote for a coalition atiku is masterminding .
he has paid his dues , he should retire and allow other to lead the opposition

This admittance by the self-proclaimed "voice of the reason" Is a big blow to the camp of the oppositions.

Of course, any intellectually sound and discerning spiritual entity is aware that this Facrook is on the payroll of Atiku and his Northern ilks.

He was just hiding under the toga of conscience-of-the-people to earn his pay.

It may not be crumbling, but there is no obvious enthusiasm for it.

Most Nigerians are not talking about it or appear to be interested.

To be fair, it isn't just about the coalition, it is a thing about politics and politicians in general.

Most Nigerians are just tired after several decades of unfulfilled promises.

As for the coalition, when Nigerians look at those behind it, they see the same set of politicians who have been in power in one role or the other for the last 25 years, and did nothing.

You can't blame people for their lack of enthusiasm.
Who told you people aren't enthusiastic, have the party been announced

Why did people vote for apc in 2015 or LP in 2023

Moreover now that people are seeing shege


Nothing can make people vote for apc or tinubu again
Re: Why The Anti-tinubu Coalition Isn’t Coalescing By Farooq A. Kperogi by ScamDemicEra:
..... the APC cult have put INEC & Judiciary in their back pocket effectively taking regime change by ballot box out of the hands of the masses !!

Coalitions should embark on MASSIVE CAMPAIGN to surgically removing INEC & Judiciary from APC cult back pocket to empower the masses -the success of any coalition is fully dependent on the success of such campaign !!

Anything else is bunch of foolish crooks/thieves plotting to replace the current set of crooks/thieves -THEY STAND NO CHANCE IN 2027 !!
Re: Why The Anti-tinubu Coalition Isn’t Coalescing By Farooq A. Kperogi by onatisi(m): 10:22pm On May 31, 2025
the only reason why Atiku is in all these opposition figure drama and coalition stuff is because he wants to contest again.
If Tinubu were to invite Atiku today and mandate him to destroy the opposition with the promise that the APC will give Atiku the ticket, Atiku wouldn't think twice before killing the coalition and any opposition group.

The OP spoke well especially how he described the first challenge the coalition is facing.

For me Atiku don't have any reason to be president except he just want to be called president. His ambition is selfish and personal.

Nigeria needs a selfless leader who have the capacity to fight dirty like Atiku.

Lastly when Nigerians are tired of these criminals, they will speak with one voice.

The opposition members who seem to be threats are quickly identified and bribed with crazy money. If they prove stubborn, they get killed.

Look at the way fubara's former staff went to abuja and was made to lie against him on camera. Even his wife couldn't recognize her husband. The man had to take a chill when Whatsapp screenshot of him asking for money was leaked.
How many people have been killed?

Mentioned one person that had been heavily bribed and one person killed for defecting or otherwise?

The problem is what is the ideology behind this coalition,we all know the causes of the present hardship which are fuel and dollar subsidy removal, my question now is,is this coalition going to return pms price per litre back to ₦200 naira and dollar back to ₦250 or what are they going to do differently. If I may recall all the top three contestants in the last presidential election agreed that both subsidies must go.

Articles like this are meant to drown the psyche and fire around the momentum currently being gathered around the country.

From the mid-term assessment report of PBAT only Government officials seem to have list of achievements of PBAT.

His government has performed at a Monumental disastrous threshold greater than Pres. Muhammed Buhari's own in the two (2) year period under review.

Nigerians are smarter and would not waste eight years of their life on an incompetent administration that has been seen to be very incompetent and clueless.

The coalition are taking their time knowing Tinubu's political tendencies of infiltrating opposition and causing division.

Tinubu will not enjoy what Buhari did in 2019.

Have you taken any poll to determine that?
What exactly should the coalition have done that they haven't done

APC is just scared they don't know the next move of the coalition... They don't know the party they want to use.. The configuration of the candidates
APC is scared ke, more like it is observing while stacking its armoury with more opposition decamping to it. It is about 20 months to election, and sadly for the coalition there are at least 2 strong candidates that cant concede for the other. Obi knows he will get in to political oblivion if he accepts a VP slot. Atiku cant take a vp slot. Obi has come out to publicly say he will context under labour party in 2027 indicating he knows the futility in the coalition. The closest chance
Is if they agree to conduct a primary and whoever wins they all support.

In all of these, APC is the party to beat, this time it is not only the incumbent party, it has an incumbent president candidate with a master political strategist hat. It is a done deal btw. Heavy sickness or death are the only 2 candidates that can stop Tinubu in 2027.

If all these politicians including Atiku, Obi, Elrufai could form the coalition then step aside for Okonjo iweala, Adesina and other technocrats Mr Tinubu might have heart attack within weeks. The trouble we have is that people don't trust these spent politicians again. Please consider this question. Can you compare the performance of Aregbesola with the current interior minister and how enthusiastic would you be when someone like Aregbesola is leading the South West in a coalition?

What is their to talk about for Nigeria, they are yet to unveil the bride and you want people to start passing off compliments or what ??

whatever coalition that is going on is yet to have an identity, so what we form our opinion

the same set of politicians we known made the 1st coalition that took out Pres. jonathan .. .. you dont know saraki, Atiku, Tinubu or is it amaechi that is stranger to us.

I think the coalition are trying to be selective and filter so they dont make the mistake of allowing Tinubu plant a saboteur in their midst

it only best they take their time, their choice can either kill them on arrival or resonate hope to Nigerians

Tinubu is a master at the game but the selfishness of an average politician is also a major factor. Did anyone think that if Tinubu had refused to allow Buhari be the flag bearer of the newly formed APC in 2015, APC would have wrestled power from PDP? Nope. That was a wise and smart calculation and a very good compromise but today, Atiku can’t deputize Obi or anoint someone to replace him like Tinubu did Osinbajo and Obi is also feeling too big to deputize Atiku. If they can’t reach such a selfless compromise, they are only wasting their time as along 2027 is concerned!
I agree with you. Too many vested interest and nobody wants to compromise. If the poll done shows so many people are disgruntled about the govt, it is another wonderful opportunity to reenact the miracle of 2015, but the strange bed fellows are suspiciously of each other.

Let to me, I think as wike is planted in pdp to scuttle any development, so is el rufai planted there in the opposition.

If atiku can step down like you said to aniont a northern to deputise for obi. I think this may work. But it seems that north would rather "endure" another 4 years of suffering instead of voting for someone "who is not their person", even if that person would better their lot

I disagree with your last sentence, it is not about who is not their person, it is about the permutation of when power will return back to them. If they support Tinubu for another 4 years, then it means that power will go back to them (the north) for 8 years between 2031-2039 but if they support another southerner who is not Tinubu in 2027, the person will also want to use 8 years and adding that to the 4 years Tinubu would have spent by 2027, it means that power would have been in the south for a continuous period of 12 years and won’t return to the north until 2035. So with this simple logic, it will be commonsensical for them to support Tinubu till 2031 and they can’t complain if they are not enjoying his government since they didn’t complain about Buhari’s government despite the insecurity ravaging the country during his tenure!

The best time to have stopped Tinubu was in 2023 but the greed and selfishness of Obi and Atiku which made them not to be able to reach a reasonable compromise (Obi leaving PDP and dividing pdp votes and Atiku insisting on not allowing a southern presidential candidate emerge in pdp) gave Tinubu automatic victory.


Unfortunately, that wrong can’t be corrected again!
