Atiku is the first piece Tinubu and Wike removed from the chess board. Obi is next, if he leaves LP to go to PDP he too will be removed

OLADD:
The joke is clearly on you and definitely not on Atiku. From your post, it's obvious you're a poor student of Nigerian political evolution. Contrary to your assertion, the journey to the formation of APC was not exactly smooth or devoid of acrimonies. All the major heavyweights from different blocs if you care to know, grandstood and held tight to their chances of picking the sole ticket till the day of the primaries. None of them agreed to step down for the other. Kwankwasso was about coasting home to victory until Tinubu stepped in and used everything in his arsenal to ensure Buhari's victory.

In a nutshell, APC's path to the presidency in 2015 was largely aided by the mood of the nation and their fathom change mantra which so many gullible Nigerians and non Nigerians alike (the CSOs, local and international media organizations, diplomatic missions, local and international pressure groups, foreign missions etc cheaply felt for.
The nation was unleashed with unprecedented propaganda and falsehoods such as it had never been witnessed in the annals of our history. These are some of the main factors that worked in their favour. Everything was not down to the ingenuities or skillsets of the founding fathers.

As for Atiku, I believe he's destined to rule the nation though the road has been rough. I believe his persistency will surely pay off, God willing.

Hope alone is not a strategy and there is no inevitability in destiny. Destiny is a road with a trillion and more off and on ramps.

Membership collection or registration?

He is not a member because he is yet to register in his ward.

Peter Obi is not a member
El-Rufai is not a member
David Mark has not gone to his ward to register
Amaechi with diarrhea of mouth is yet to register in his ward too

ADC Coalition has failed and it is a scam

Putindbutt:
I don't think anyone has said the contestants had to step down for another person, however, APC was never messy where supporters of each candidate are throwing dirts and bricks at each other, bullying and intimidating one candidate to step down for another or threatening it is either a particular candidate or nothing. APC never had a situation where the key players where delaying their membership of the party or having one leg in APC and another leg in their old party weeks after the merger. So, forget story, you can't even compare. How Sunday go be na from Saturday we go see am. This coalition is a joke, no head or tail, the supporters are even confused as to what's going on.
300years from now, Atiku will still never smell Aso rock, he is not destined to be President, he may keep wasting his dollars, the hawks are preparing their pockets once again to collect as much as they can from him.

Electoral seasons come with different tendencies and intricacies. This is 2025 where social media space has gained more traction than it was in 2015.
As mentioned in my earlier post, why the intra-party wranglings in APC pre and post 2015 elections, did not come to the fore, was largely due to the unanimous desire of almost the entire nation for a new direction and thereafter falling for the change mantra. Only few had dissenting voices at that time.
The only similarity to the 2015 scenarios is the mob action been undertaken by Obi supporters who see him as the messiah the same way Buhari was projected as Nigeria's saviour. That's why they hound, intimidate and abuse other candidates and their supporters all in a bid to place Obi on a competitive edge over the other potential candidates. While it worked for Buhari due to his cult following in the north, a part of the country with the largest number of voters, in Obi's case, he comes from a region with the least voting population. Obi's supporters go to town bragging about his overblown credentials but as far as the numbers and national voting spread are concerned, Obi doesn't have it.

On full ADC membership, you can't blame members of the coalition for been cautious in their individual approaches. Jonathan provided a conducive environment and level playing ground for opposition to thrive but the reverse is the case today. However, I think the coalition will take shape as we approach the 2027 elections.

As for Atiku, I am not a northerner so that you won't accuse me of playing tribal card, as far as the political landscape is concerned today, he's the only one without sentiment or prejudice who tick all the boxes for the presidency. This is a fact, not fiction.

You ended up saying nothing to counter @Timemanager! What has grandstanding in politics got to do with obvious confusion that is plaguing ADC at the moment!

So if like you said " APC was plagued with issues at it's formation, so we should expect same from ADC? Then what's the difference between the ADC and the APC then? You see your life!

Every person that was touted to be a part of the APC formation came out with their "full chest" declaring where they belong not this one that;

Elrufai is SDP/ADC
Atiku isn't sure if he goofed by joining the ADC
Obi is LP/ADC
Amaechi is a parrot!

Your co-travellers would make us believe that all this is a ploy to "confuse" APC, whatever that means.

Then there's the other set that want to force it down our throats that that same "APC confusion talk" from the earlier mentioned camp of the ADC is actually caused by the APC to weaken the coalition!

Hmmm...

Atiku is waiting for governors that want to decamp... I hope you read that line and see how confused the ADC is! Did APC wait for anybody at it's formation, Mr. Student of political history?

You all will be alright last last when all this dust settles!

Atiku wen go soon deny ever leaving PDP.

He will probably soon claim that the letter that was put out recently in the public is fake. He would have seen that Obi wanted to deceive him by going to the same PDP he just left so as to try to use the "structure of criminality" to try and win BAT.

It is David Mark that has been played in all of these.

TimeManager:
It's quite pathetic that a veteran like Atiku could find himself in this kind of a mess despite years of wealth of experience. He was an active participant during the inception of APC, he saw how everything went smoothly, neither did party was divided among any of the contestants or their supporters leading to the primaries. Buhari, Kwankwaso, Atiku, Okorocha kept one house going into the primaries. No one deployed media tactics to sway sympathy or attention to himself as we're witnessing in this coalition of confusion.
When Tinubu was doing it, they thought it was easy, now e reach their turn to do it, dey no fit. If it's not Panadol, e no fit be like Panadol.




I listened to ADC Chairman in Adamawa, he was saying " mark your calendar, August 6", Lol.



Then he will wait till he is 200years old. Oh poor Atiku!



What a shame, Jonathan being thrown into the picture yet again. So, these political IDPs do not even have a clear cut plan before announcing the coalition, they did out of emotion and unnecessary excitement of having a platform to challenge the President but leaving lots of leakages in their behind. We will be watching where this comedy film ends up.




For more jokes and daily comedy skits, send ATIKU to 121.


-Kiss the truth!

Nope, Atiku to 419

Read my rejoinder to another moniker, you'll find answers to your observations/questions. Thanks.

Tinubu, they claim, is scared stiff of the opposition and is actually jittery.

Are you kidding me?

Thus far, Tinubu has maintained a dignified silence while they keep accusing him of being the mastermind of all their woes.

Who's scared of who in reality?

If you can't beat them, they say, you join them!

Tinubu being the master strategist that he is, doesn't show his cards in the SM like the legion of his opponents do.


How come only one man is being able to throw spanner in their works while they resort to just lamentations and blame-shifting.


Mama GEJ don tell una sey Tinubu is like the rock of Gilbraltar - he tanda gidigba!

Guess what?

GEJ being a gentleman would not want to tarnish his hard-earned image and reputation for a mere pot of porridge being offered by both the PDP and the ADC.

Atiku and PO are currently in a danse macabre of sorts and they and their supporters know in their hearts that it would be much easier to squeeze water out of stone than to remove Tinubu from office come 2027.

Tinubu must be amusing himself watching these political lilliputians.



@hotseat

Let Atik and his Footsoldiers on Social Media continues to waste their time and data( money) , afterall the enough to gain in' My Watch' Baba OBJ Book - that Atiku has no spine to Challenge!
Just TRUTH and FACTS - that Most Nigerians6 Lacks to.

I understand your pains bro. ADC is causing more confusion to APC than to their supporters. The presidency can't predict their next move at all

Perhaps he just realised that age is not on his side.

Unfortunately wishes are not horses. 2027 elections is still about 20 months away, so wait until it is 6 months to elections and "you will eat your words"

Confusion!!!

The so-called Dubai landlord has turned serial election losing into a full-time career, while the self-anointed Obidient messiah has mastered the art of jumping from one party to another like a political grasshopper. If they have any sense left, they should bow out now before history brands them as nothing more than perennial losers and party-hopping failures.

These weetards are trying so hard to sale the same Atiku we've known since the time of OBJ.

These weetards are trying so hard in deceiving and confusing themselves and their blind supporters that President Tinubu who won the last presidential election as an outsider and now in-charge, is scared of Atiku or anyone else

These are the dull brains projecting a candidate for Nigeria

Shawarmagirl:
Jonathan is not a threat to either Atiku or Obi. Atiku and others delay to pick up the membership card of ADC is part of the plan to keep on confusing APC and keep them speculating.

that's very childish plan...and no brainer....I think they are just using the former party as plan A ...adc is just eye service....thou both candidates looks politically weak n confused...they probably have no strategy against the opposition.

You meant fiction

Opposition leaders are probably waiting to see who will have the highest momentum like the momentum Buhari had in 2014 before he chose Apc as the vehicle for the momentum.

That’s why they are also testing Jonathan’s name to see whether it can catch like Buhari. They may also try Verydarkman because the momentum can start with people thinking outside the box.

yarimo:
Peter obi what is going on na? Please hurry up and decamp to ADC Biko 😆

Ya contract dey go wella.
Without mentioning of Peter Obi 's name in a day, ya contract will be terminated.

I understand ya belle survival.
Say hi to ya fellow H on nairaland.

Nigeria political drama toward 2027: full of permutations, predictions,deceits, reverse psychologies, delusional, hypocrisy, confusion and outright lies.

TINUBU IS JUST USING ALL OF THEM TO PLAY PING PONG.

You be boy boy in politics. Tinubu is using all of them to play ping pong

man is not even stable in his decision making when it comes to politics, its even an irony that his business empire hasn't crumbled due to his indecisions.

The 2013 merger of the APC was all about Buhari. There was no doubt from inception that Buhari would be the presidential candidate. All other contestants were for pretense and make believe

DrAkpa:
This one go dey carry headache for another person problem. Atiku's cook doesn't even know you exist. Go and hide your face

Yet you think cook of Tinubu you've been bashing since even before he became president know that you exist?

runningriot:
Looking at the the political atmosphere and permutations that gears to 2027 elections one will believe with me that the rapprochements of all these failed politicians is not for the interests of the common man but one bore out of frustration and desperation. Like it is very obvious and glaring. Peter Obi is desperate! Atiku is another desperado!! Likewise Ameachi so tell me if any of them loses the ticket what is the possibility of them working for the party flag bearer. Moreso, all of them has not formally decamped and even though a pockets of them has done it some are still left confused on whether to remain in ADC or decamp when their interests are not favoured. All I am seeing and predicting is a classical and premium defeat to any coalition most especially that sentiments and personal interests will grease the path.

So thiefnubuu is there for the interest of the common man?

Shawarmagirl:

A lot is going on bro.
Stop finding excuses for the confused Atiku.

That's his business. He never sees beyond his ambition. If he contests in 2027, the mere fact that it is a Southern slot, he will lose.
