appointing wike as the minister of fct indicates that elections were rigged in rivers state

Then appointing Bianca Ojukwu as minister of state for federal ministry of foreign Affairs means that she rigged Anambra for Tinubu in the last election right?
Igbooooooooo,
For how long?

Tjra:
This Tinubu must be so powerful for Buhari to conduct a sham election to get him in.

If the election wasn't a "sham", I guess Atiku would have beaten him black and blue, right?

Or na Obi won? 🤡

Wetin this 🤡 dey talk... Abeg shift

hear yourself.
Thank God you mentioned "Minister of State"

You cannot even be one.

yarimo:
Baba Dubai that is your business na

No, it's actually the business of common sense. Try to get one and reason like a patrot. Read Atiku's position carefully and see if he's not making sense. Okay?

Christmyhope:
Baba Atiku, let me tell you the honest truth, you can not become Nigeria president.

When he does, please do the needful.

You talk as if the president dey your to give whomever you wish to give it to. Take it easy bro.

NewHe:
Thank God you will never be Nigeria's president! Such a myopic and shalow thinking!

iwaeda:
Incoming President of Nigeria, HE Atiku Abubakar.

By the grace of God Almighty. Thank you.

Laple0541:
That is why you can never be president!

If ex INEC chairman can’t get just ambassadorial post, why are you after being vice president for 8yrs still contesting for close to two decades to be president? Hypocrite.

Why can't you just apply your senses and think rationally. Did you bother to read Atiku's statement and the implication of appointing an immediate past Inec chair whose stewardship is still under scrutiny as an ambassador? How conscientious and reasonable is this, and how do you think the international community would view such appointment?

Besides, what's the nexus between being a VP and seeking to become president? Was Biden not a VP to Obama for 8 years before becoming president? Which school did you attend?

Compensation for a job well done , more like a validation of what we have always said and general knowledge that Mahmoud assigned Peter Obi election results to tinubu and reason he refused to use BVAS and kept shutting off and on the electoral system that day like NEPA light

Orlandoo:
If Nigeria is a working country Tinubu will be impeached immediately. Appointing the immediate past INEC chairman is an indictment that he rigged the election in favor of the incumbent. But las las Nigeria is a failed and disgraceful country under Tinubu.

😂😂😂😂 keep on wailing. In Yoruba we call this Ariwo lasan. Tinubu will finish his 2nd term and pick a successor from the North. Oriyin ti o fe pe yen. Ko de ni pe. 😂😂😂

As an aspirant for the position of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, would you endorse the public statement below in defense of the fundamental rights of the non muslims of SOKOTO State? "Actions not words"!

PUBLIC STATEMENT: A CALL TO RESTORE CONSTITUTIONAL ORDER IN SOKOTO STATE

Date: [Insert Date] Location: [Insert Location]

PREAMBLE We, the undersigned citizens and stakeholders dedicated to the preservation of constitutional democracy in Nigeria, issue this statement to express our grave concern regarding the recent executive actions taken by the Sokoto State Government under the administration of Governor Ahmed Aliyu.

Specifically, we condemn the formalization of state-sponsored religious bias through:

The institution of monthly state salaries for Imams, Deputy Imams, and Mu’azzins;

Direct budgetary allocations to Jumu’at mosques; and

The explicit elevation of "Islamic propagation" as a priority of government governance, ranking second only to security.

These actions represent a dismantling of the secular firewall mandated by the 1999 Constitution (as amended) and threaten the social fabric of a multi-religious society.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL VIOLATIONS

1. Breach of the Secular State Principle (Section 10) Section 10 of the Constitution is unequivocal: "The Government of the Federation or of a State shall not adopt any religion as State Religion." By utilizing the machinery of the state—including public treasury and policy prioritization—to propagate a specific faith, the Sokoto State Government has effectively adopted a state religion in practice, if not in name. This is a direct assault on the secular nature of the Nigerian Republic.

2. State-Sponsored Discrimination (Section 42) Section 42 prohibits discrimination against any citizen based on their religion. By restricting financial benefits and state patronage to the clergy and institutions of a single faith, the government has created a system of socio-economic apartheid. This policy treats non-Muslim residents—including Christians and Traditionalists—as second-class citizens who must fund, through their taxes, the propagation of a faith to which they do not subscribe.

3. Erosion of Religious Freedom (Section 38) True religious freedom implies freedom from state coercion. When the state explicitly prioritizes the propagation of one religion, it creates a coercive environment that implicitly pressures citizens to conform. The government’s role is to ensure a neutral playing field for all faiths, not to act as the missionary arm of one.

4. Misappropriation of the Commonwealth The treasury of Sokoto State belongs to all its residents. Diverting public funds—meant for education, health, and infrastructure—to fund religious propagation violates the principle of public trust. In a diverse federation, the state must remain a neutral arbiter, not a financier of sectarian interests.

OUR DEMANDS To preserve national unity and constitutional supremacy, we demand the following:

Immediate Reversal: The Sokoto State Government must immediately suspend and reverse these discriminatory policies and return all diverted funds to the public treasury for developmental use.

Federal Oversight: We call upon the Attorney General of the Federation and the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) to urgently investigate these violations of the Federal Constitution.

Judicial Review: We urge the Nigerian Bar Association and public interest litigators to challenge these policies in a court of competent jurisdiction to set a precedent against state-sponsored religious bias.

CONCLUSION Nigeria’s stability rests on the twin pillars of Rule of Law and State Neutrality. The actions of the Sokoto State Government undermine both. We stand united in defending the rights of all Nigerians to live free from state-sanctioned religious discrimination.

Go and rest nothing concern international community with our choices are long as that person doesn't have anything that will restrict him in any country he is posted. For now nobody has declared Yakubu wanted or a criminal.
As for Biden, yes he was Vice to Obama but contested once and he won. How many times has Atiku contested? I am sure you were probably not yet born since he started contesting.
Now you tell us if at all you go school.

Baba Dubai that is your business na

How is it the business of Bọbọ Chicago to ruin the deregulation and privatisation prosperity we had for 16 years under PDP capitalists, which has been extreme poverty shege since 2015?

2015 was the year that Tinubu made Buhari president, four years after calling him expired.

In 2019, was Tinubu on the ballot for APC

Do you know Nigerian tribal politics better than the Anambra state governor?

newsbook:
Anambra State governor, Chief Willie Obiano has re-echoed his allegation that his predecessor, Mr Peter Obi demanded the sum of N7.5billion from him for sponsoring his election in 2013.

Obiano and his predecessor, Obi have had a frosty relationship shortly after his swearing in.

Obi has however denied that he demanded for the sum of N7.5billion from Obiano, saying that his problem with him was his (Obiano’s) underperformance.

Obi said if he needed the said sum, he would have simply taken it from the N75billion he left for the Obiano administration at the end of his tenure.

But Governor Obiano while speaking on Wednesday evening at Ezechima Primary School, Onitsha where he inaugurated his reelection campaigns in Onitsha North Council Area, said the clarification became necessary because of the recent accusations against him by the former Governor.

He stated that his predecessor had demanded the sum of N7.5billion from him as funds spent in prosecuting the election on his behalf, but that he refused to pay the money because it was not true.

Obiano said he refused to pay because he strongly believed that public funds should be used for public good, and not to settle godfathers.

These, he said, was the reason they fell apart.

The governor said that another reason he refused to pay the money was because he was aware that enough money was raised for his campaign by his friends and associates, all of which were never accounted for by the former governor.

On the actual sum the former Governor claimed he left behind, Governor Obiano made it clear that he inherited liability of about N127 billion debt from him in contracts awarded and other responsibilities, which he has been religiously undertaking in the spirit of continuity.

He said Obi flagged off several roads even on the day he was leaving office and saddled him with the burden of paying for it, but he assured the people that he has his eyes on the ball and will not allow anything to distract him from fulfilling his promises.

The Chairman of the Governor’s Re-election Campaign Committee, Chief Victor Umeh said APGA as the political spirit of Ndigbo, has in the past three and half years, availed Anambra good governance at its best, reminding the people that the upcoming guber election was not about Willie Obiano but about ensuring that the state remained free from political godfatherism.

A former Central Bank Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo in his speech said that at this time, the State needs a tested hand like Governor Obiano who has the experience and expertise to effectively steer her affairs.

Orlandoo:
That man so much believe in his marabout and his looted dollars.

Imagine contesting for president since 1993?

Since Obasanjo begged Atiku to forego his 1999 election as Adamawa governor, in order to be his running mate, has he been in charge of any % of the federal allocation of 53% to the president alone, and the 27% shared by all the 36 states

Don’t you think that Tinubu has looted more dollars from the trillions annual budget of Lagos State, which is not used to pay enough workers to provide water to all households

May Day: Hunger, unemployment, insecurity real— Tinubu

According to him: “The theme demands our collective attention and serves as a stark reminder of the need to create an environment where every worker feels safe, valued, and empowered to contribute to the growth and prosperity of our nation. As your President, I assure you that this administration is committed to creating such an environment for the common good.”

On the economic hardship, he noted that while it is a global phenomenon, its effects on Nigerians are particularly severe.

Tinubu said: “I am aware of the peculiarities of the economic hardship Nigerians face—rising living costs, hunger, insecurity, unemployment, and the loss of livelihoods. These challenges are real and demand definitive solutions, which I am poised to address as your President.
