Tinubu created his own downfall with his arrogance and hubris. I am even surprised. I expected a humble tinubu right after he won president considering that more votes were cast against him than for him in2023.

I believe he is seeing the handwriting on the wall. The worst part is that he has allowed his appointees from the south blame Buhari for everything bad about his govt.

I actually expected more.

Exactly. Now, the Yorubas are playing the victim. After winning with 5.6m Northern votes out of his total 8.3m, one would expect him to be more humble until at least, a second term is secured. But he chose to believe his own hype that is backed by nothing. Where are his Northern allies in 2023 who helped campaign for his election at great personal costs to their brand? Where is Elrufai? Where is Ganduje? Where is Kashim Imam? Where soon will be Kashim Shettima? All cast aside and betrayed. The story is even worse when you look at the people he has cast aside in the Southwest. Story for another day.

Alaimore eda.

Buhari himself no fit talk am



He knows the results 3 times he contested without the APC merger...so, he knows better.

All these talk talk people can rest

Mustapha is playing a script. behind it must be BUHARI. They are trying to pressure Tinubu.

they are very ungrateful. I think Wike learnt his lesson dealing with Tambuwal.

they started singing after WIKE claim Amaechi was mentioned in the NDDC forensic audit report and many people are implicated

Jayhome24:
To be honest ungratefulness is satanic and very very bad.

I'm very sure Tinubu must have learned a bitter lesson if he is lucky to be back to this world again after he might have gone to his ancestor because the people he has helped have all betrayed him simply they are no longer on viable employment. The lesson I learned from Tinubu case is I will never help anyone in life to stardom, never.

Was this not same Mustapha running down to Bourdillion like a rat to lick Tinubu a s s then now turned Tiger masturbating from his mouth? I remember how Buharri lost presidential election on 3 or 4 occasion but same Tinubu these bloody ingrates are attacking now helped Buhari to achieved his dream.

It's satanic to be an ingrate.

jamafa:
Buhari won because of south west vote not north. If south west support Jonathan, he would av won that election.

Credit to Tinubu

South has never voted north. Do you know what it means to vote north or south? It means overwhelmingly vote north or south. Without a doubt vote north or south. Southwest has never voted south west how could they magically vote north.

Buhari won because the pdp collapsed into the “coalition” which was spearheaded by Nasir El-Rufai. This El-Rufai every political neophyte is spitting on will give Tinubu the battle for political power in 2027. El-Rufai like Soludo is an Obasanjo student. Till date no President has come close to OBJ numbers and it’s because of people like elrufai, soludo, iweala and co.

PDP is the reason Buhari won. Go back and look at how ACN states voted in the past. Did their voting pattern change for Buhari … NO. Same pathetic numbers, same give Peter .. give Paul style of politics.

Tinubu also won with a slim margin. Quite slim Infact, it should give u concern that Peter Obi could pull 6 million votes out of nowhere; the fact that he did tells you how weak Tinubu candidacy is. If Atiku and Obi work together it would be wise of Tinubu concedes victory.

He tried his best to cut down Dangote . He has given up; you think the north did not take offense

mrvitalis:
That's an undisputed fact... Jonathan losing middle belt was what cost him the election

Plateau, tarraba, Benue, nassarawa, Adamawa this are where Jonathan lost the election

In 2019 it was so that if you remove all voted Buhari got from South he still won

But you and your people have been labeling Yoruba traitor for 2015 election,when will you people stay on one point and stop jumping everywhere like that run away general?

Because PDP did not join the coalition? Dey play.

Buhari is not talking because he won’t talk .. as in 2027 he won’t talk . Do you know the numbers pdp brought to the coalition. The money rotimi Ameachi squandered

Boss Mustapha is a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation under the Buhari administration

Hahahahaha
Madam Clinton had over 3 million useless votes more than Mr Trump, but Trump won the most important electoral college votes to be declared as president, just as stuffed 12 millions of votes from the North are useless for victory to be achieved.
Boss Mustapha, it is better you keep quite to conceal your ignorance and lack of understanding of issues.
Tinubu/ACN handed Aso rock keys to Buhari, stop displaying your illiteracy.

Mustapha is playing a script. behind it must be BUHARI. They are trying to pressure Tinubu.

they are very ungrateful. I think Wike learnt his lesson dealing with Tambuwal.

Kestolove:
Boss mustapha have also started talking...this gang up against Tinubu will fail

Boss mustapha can say what ever he likes,he is cousin to the grass cutter thief,he is from Adamawa same as atiku,he is a close associate of rotimi amaechi......he is just one individual with zero grassroots base.....he is from fufore lg,I know his base.

Which Buhari ? The one that is ill and just left ICU.
These ones are just hungry after tasting life outside power . It has nothing to do with Buhari

Tell us those numbers nah . Buhari has always won the North right from 2003.
So tell us the votes Saraki and Amaechi brought.
Since you are the personal accountant to Amarachi , tell us how much he squandered

Ah ah..so what Boss is saying is what we already know!

1. Buhari was a pathway to the presidency for BAT
2. BAT as a party candidate can not win an election without the power of incumbency
3. BAT cannot win a free and fair election in this country
4. BAT supported a candidate that he reportedly told US consular officials was an ethnic bigot and agent of destabilization but cos he needed him to get to power, he sacrificed the fate of 200m Nigerians for personal goals

they are just trying to deceive people.

that way, you can't pin it on BUHARI.
they started ganging-up after WIKE started singing about everyone implicated in the NDDC audit report including Amaechi wife receiving 4 billion every month. including MALAMI that killed the report. all of them should be in jail

remember when BUHARI signed NNPC agreements on his sick bed in LONDON

Abeg sound this well into Yoruba people's ears. Without the North, no President can emerge.

But Northerners can emerge president without others?hatred has becloud your sense of reasoning, Tinubu will complete his 8years and I dare you to stop him if you can,you started wailing immediately Tinubu won your Atiku and you forgot to save some energy because you will wail for more six years,just make sure you stay alive

What ever the case may be the North are not with Tunibu came 2027. I can tell you ppl down here literally resent Tunibu.

emkz:
Many of those who worked under Buhari have turned out to be ingrates because of unemployment.

In 2011, coalition talks failed as Buhari refused to concede the vice presidential ticket to Tinubu's camp. In 2015, the merger paid off when Buhari conceded the vice presidential slot to Tinubu.

The additional 3 million votes led to offsetting Jonathan's votes by 2,571,759.

Without Tinubu, Saraki and some others, Buhari would never have won that election and Babachir and Boss Mustapha would not have been SGF.

Tinubu contributed immenseley to rebranding Buhari and successfully removed the tag of religious fundamentalism from Buhari, which influenced Buhari's marketability.

Despite Buhari's team sidelining Tinubu during Buhari's tenure, Tinubu remained true to the party. Despite the party abandoning APC Edo during Obaseki's second term campaign, Tinubu supported the party. Despite many in Buhari's camp refusing to openly campaign for Tinubu, Tinubu campaigned as if his life depended on it. Buhari later joined when it became clear he was being unfair to Tinubu.

Now, many of Buhari's disciples who feel sidelined are now undermining Tinubu. Osinbajo himself undermined Tinubu by running against him and got served. It's been only two years, and many of Buhari's disciples cannot stay the course. Buhari and Tinubu were the arrowheads of APC. Buhari had his time, Tinubu also deserves his time. After Buhari, Tinubu took more heat on behalf of APC during Buhari's tenure.

There were rumours that some people in Buhari's government were more disposed to an Atiku presidency when the Ahmad Lawan project failed. The way they are trooping to the coalition, it is clear where they stood.

Even if Babachir, Boss Mustapha, Malami, Laureta Onochie and some Buhari's closest fellows detest Tinubu, they should be reminded that Buhari would never have been president without Tinubu's support.

To politicians, think of the future. Do not make enemies because of temporary hunger. You abuse Tinubu today. Tomorrow, you might need someone from his camp to support you. Why should he trust you?

Tinubu is not popular in Lagos . He rigged in the remaining south western states except Osun, while Mr Fairplus rigged for him in kogi so massively. It won't be same scenario in 2027. Stop hyping your mentor. He's a featherweight even in the south west otherwise, he'd not be deploying thugs to voters to intomidate them and snatch ballot boxes...have you thought of this? Did buhari do same in the north? People overwhelming voted him in 2015 including my humble self in Lagos. Stop accusing anyone saying the truth about tinubu as a hungry man. If you're not greedy, you can't do 4 years as SGF and be poor again with what comes to you genuinely.

Typing:
This one is pained already. We told you people, the North will no longer vote for Tinubu. We made Tinubu President but Yoruba people don dey misbehave. We will disgrace Tinubu with our votes in 2027

Your wailing has just begun,you didn't voted for Tinubu in 2023,you voted for Atiku as Fulani supremacist you are, you will vote for him again comes 2027 and you will wail as you have been wailing since 2023,no one takes your type serious,your husband elders up North are lined up begging Tinubu to allow him to campaign for him.

Watch the minions start to attack the messenger 😄😄

I for one supported APC in 2015

And yes or e betrayed the southern unity so what exactly is your point

Can you produce the number of votes with which he rigged? Can you also supply evidence of what you have said?

If you can, I will send you one hundred thousand naira today.

You and your 2 bit comrades a gradually coming to terms with the reality on ground. As the gunfire draws closer … you can see you can’t take another free ride to aso rock .


The problem Tinubu has is not that people are angry , I mean the voters are always angry. But disgust… huge disgust for Tinubu regime in the north. Politicians will take a cue from wike and Tinubu.


Wike’s play for arsenal collect salary from Chelsea and Tinubu”s for Yoruba by Yoruba . I thought you guys said Buhari is a tribalist well Tinubu seems to be one as well

Now is why Tinubu’s political best friend now is Wike 😂

"Ti ore ba pe, ashiere a gbagbe"
Go and buy the 3million votes in the market! Ode!
Just 2yrs?
It is why i even respect BAT more now! When you embarrassingly removed Osho baba, and gave pdp Edo, this guy stomached the loss. You ganged up against him for election, he never became town crier.
But you? Just 2 yrs of being out of job? E ma gbinna ni!
Make i call that my uncle wey dey always rate this Boss guy. Nonsense!

Image123:
Hallelujah, at least he's the president today. And doing much better. Wow, people have guts and are so ungrateful. Life
GenZs fit no remember, but as much as i like fPMB, the truth is the truth. It was what it was until Tinubu came to the rescue.

PS: To the fellow below:


I do not know why you assume I am pained. If Tinubu does not perform to your expectation, vote him out. That is your democratic right. If he fails, I'd support him to go home. My survival is not tied to Tinubu being in power or anyone else. But what we will not accept is the lie that those whose records in public office embarass them that they cannot even publicly talk about it are the ones to rescue Nigeria. We must rescue Nigeria from those who sold government assets to their friends. We must rescue Nigeria from those who destroyed NITEL and ruined power sector reforms. We must rescue Nigeria from those who used their positions to influence their wives getting 4 billion naira monthly to train Niger Delta women on only gawd knows what. We must rescue Nigeria from religious extremists who said EU election observers will return in body bags. We must rescue Nigeria from those whose accomplisments were prison breaks and declaration of public holidays. We must recue Nigeria from those who slap vulnerable women in shops asking "do you know who I am?" We must rescue Nigeria from those who built an uneconomic and voodoo railway from Kano to Maradi and refused to build a maritime university in the Niger Delta. We must rescue Nigeria from the Church of Emergency Messiahs of Nigeria of Latter Day Saints. We must rescue Nigeria from you!

Why must everything be about Tinubu??

The Role of god he likes playing is what is hurting his performance now

At the conception of APC, he was not even a Governor

The PDP bloc gave them a whole lot cos that's what really broke Jonathan's influence

At least we remembered the famous 16 is greater than 19

Make una sofry dey worship this man abeg, it's irritating

So we should fry beans?

Where am I supposed to get11 more characters now?

SmartEnergyng:
Boss Mustapha should know better. Revisionism or Amnesia. so let's jug up his memory.
By 2015, Muhammadu Buhari was a northern juggernaut with zero traction in the south. He lost three consecutive elections—2003, 2007, and 2011—failing to secure even 2% in any southern state. Buhari had reach in the desert but no bridge to the coast.

Enter Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

The 2015 victory wasn’t divine—it was strategic. Tinubu brought the political architecture, the South West votes, the elite coordination, and the ACN machinery that formed the APC. That party wasn’t born in the north—it was negotiated in Lagos and midwifed across the Niger.

To now hear Boss Mustapha suggest Buhari could’ve done it alone is more than false—it’s dangerous revisionism. In 2011, Buhari won zero southern states. In 2015, thanks to Tinubu, he won Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Osun, Ondo, and Ekiti—securing the crucial two-thirds spread.

This wasn’t a northern coronation. It was a coalition presidency—and Tinubu was the hinge.

If the northern elite think they can return to power without meaningful southern alliance, they’re politically deaf. Nigeria isn’t ruled by nostalgia. It’s steered by negotiated balance.

👉 Don’t erase the bridge that carried you.
👉 Don’t bite the hand that delivered you.

Boss Mustapha should know better.

People like Amaechi, Saraki also were instrumental in that same election, but Una no displace them??
Stop worshiping your fellow man

Tinubu no be wetin una dey call am to be

Zincfingers:
Boss Mustapha must have developed senile dementia.
Anyway, the lousy clown was largely a peripheral figure during the merger process .
Clowns like Boss Mustapha were the reasons why the Buhari administration struggled to perform to expectation.
Would Buhari had become the president without those ‘meager’ 2 million votes with its attendant 25% spread - per the electoral act ??
Moving on,

The APC’s victory wasn’t just sealed on the day of the 2015 presidential election. The victory was won months before then.

- Buhari had contested albeit unsuccessfully in 2003, 2007 and 2011 . How come his 12 million votes didn’t take him to Aso Rock

- The merger was briefly muted in 2011 but it couldn’t pull through .

- The merger was a brain child of Tinubu. So the candidacy of Buhari was pre determined and all efforts were geared at the delivery of his candidacy during the primary elections of the APC in Lagos in 2014.

- The perpetual contestant called Atiku was pushed into 3rd position during the primary by machinations of the Tinubu block .

- Buhari hitherto known as a hardliner and an unelectable bigot was refurbished and polished as a democrat. The SW medial arsenal was successfully mobilized to achieve this

- Tinubu not only took Buhari to Chatham house to show him to the world but he also employed Barak Obama’s publicist to help with the campaign .

- Lagos became the epicenter of the struggle for Buhari’s ascendancy . The media , intellectuals, business moguls and traditional establishments in Lagos tilted to him

- Tinubu’s private jet , resources and contacts were mobilized for Buhari .

- I still remember vividly how Buhari visited UI numerous times prior to the election. The UI was the intellectual base that delivered Buhari . This is how Adewole emerged the health minister after he left as VCship of UI

- Buhari himself and Aisha knew what went down between 2012 and 2015 and they reciprocated the gesture in 2023 even when hawks like Boss Mustapha tried to do the opposite.

It’s now crystal clear that it was folks like Mustapha who were the so called Aso Rock insiders supporting Atiku against their own party in 2023.

Lilliputians like Boss Mustapha were no where the ground zero of events that ultimately produced Buhari in 2015 .
Buhari wasn’t deaf when Tinubu roared ‘emilokan’ in Abeokuta . It was a call to remind Buhari about their agreement.

The end has justified the means !
CPC has ruled and now ACN is ruling .
Boss Mutapha should keep his opinion where the sun doesn’t shine 🫵🏾

All these are stories
It is numbers that win elections and the numbers did not lie

Ikaeniyan0:
Every Nigerians knows that without Tinubu, Buhari would never have become the president of Nigeria

Of course he's instrumental to the win, but the only issue people have with his supporters is aggravating his role in national issues

Amaechi, Saraki, Oshiomole were all instrumental too

Infact there were many instrumental persons then, it was a merger after all

But I believe the PDP bloc were the game changer in that process

But they were never well compensated
