To be frank, Buhari showed true camaraderie to Tinubu. How would you want to supplant your master and benefactor whereby the same man also happens to be a solid backing to Buhari's Presidency. Buhari's endorsing Osinbajo would have amounted to one of the darkest arts in human history.
But also, Buhari's body language at the time gave room for lots of tensed atmosphere, speculations and uncertainty especially in the Tinubu's camp, paving way for some of the candidates proclaiming themselves as the anointed candidates. It was not until Tinubu self- proclamation of " Emilokan" at Abeokuta, that was the turning point that scattered the table, dismantled the cabal and reset the arrangements.

That was when Buhari finally heard it loud and clear and Aisha had to come out to align with Tinubu. That singular pronouncement changed everything!.

-Kiss the truth!
But he supported Lawan

Stale. Buhari would never say that about Osinbajo. It is now known that this book, written by a Buhari critic, is a hatchet job to malign Buhari in death and promote some people. Little wonder Tinubu attended its lunch but failed to attend that of Garba Shehu. The piece by piece media attention the book is getting is also not a coincidence. It's being engineered by someone but it's dead on arrival.
I think the book is actually kind to Mr Buhari. Not sure why you think otherwise.

Wow

I believe this

On the night of the APC convention, Buhari and Osinbajo barely looked at each other not to talk about speak.

who don't know him from anywhere for someone who worked with your for eight years without blemish? why does hew have to consult you for seeking to be president and when it's said standing against the same person that brought him to limelight, didn't both still stand in the primaries? this book should have been unveiled when he was alive to know the truth .

You worked with someone for 8;year yet you don't know him.What a statement!!!!!
Re: I Don’t Know Him From Anywhere - Why Buhari Didn't Back Osinbajo For President by MartinCorridon: 8:53am On Dec 17, 2025
That's a lie. Buhari stood against Tinubu. Just like Osinbajo and Lawan. Plus Party Chairman and CBN Governor.

Tinubu just bravely beat the nonsense out of them ALL. COMBINED shocked

Shey Pastor Judas hear am? Buhari no know him Mama. As a matter of fact, the short man doesn’t exist, only Tinubu exists.

But imagine Buhari thinking that his support can make anyone to win the Presidential election when he Buhari couldn’t support himself to win until the god of Politics, Emilokan JAGABAN saved him

Kind indeed. Look beyond the facade, there are several subtle attempts embedded in the book to falsely portray Buhari in bad light, create resentments (such as this) and impugne upon his legacy. All true Buharists boycotted its launch. Lai Muhammad will be launching a book on Buhari today. That one will be kinder to Buhari, not this one written by a known critic of the man.

True. Even Nigerians didn't know him from anywhere before he became vice president, but how can you have worked with a man for eight years and still claim not to know him?
Eight years isn’t enough, to know some people.

Do they have relationship before osibanjo became his vice? Political partnership is not just about meeting each other at an event
Re: I Don’t Know Him From Anywhere - Why Buhari Didn't Back Osinbajo For President by MartinCorridon: 8:57am On Dec 17, 2025
I am Pro APC and Buhari didn't show Tinubu NADA.

Aisha and Remi separately complained about how Tinubu was used and dumped.

Let us not tell ourselves any lies. Buhari was a selfish person who cared only about his own ambitions. BAT was insulted by APC for 8 good years.

He tried nonsense with Tinubu for 8 years and on the 9th year of election, Tinubu answered him appropriately.

And....and.... let me tell you something odd. Osinbajo might have been asked by Tinubu to contest. shocked

That man is a sly old fox, cunning beyond words. Someone that financed Peter Obi indirectly without that one never catching on. Someone that converted Reno, FFK and even Wike to bow for him?

Putindbutt:
Osinbajo messed up big time, how could he?. He overestimated himself and see at the end of the day, even Ameachi floored him to second place. Those he was banking on let him down.
It's just like PitaObi saying he wants to contest against Abacha... we all know Obi is Abacha's boy and Abacha made him who he is. So, Obi contesting against his benefactor would have been a very big insult to Abacha. Hopefully, Osinbajo has learnt from the experience to become better.
Dry joke

Were Tinubu and Buhari friends before Tinubu travelled to Daura to encourage Buhari out of retirement to come send his Southern brother, Jonathan out of power? Tinubu simply capitalised upon his popularity in the North and used that as a foothold to ascend to power. With 8 uninterrupted years of working closely together, I daresay that Buhari grew to know Osinbajo more than he knows Tinubu so he couldn't have said this.

Buhari is a smart man but only on religious wickedness. Apart from that, i never met any other person who attainedthe highest position in a country being that dumb!
Re: I Don’t Know Him From Anywhere - Why Buhari Didn't Back Osinbajo For President by mastermaestro(m): 8:59am On Dec 17, 2025
If Buhari actually thought like this, then he was right in terms of honouring beneficial relationships. It would have amounted to betrayal supporting a subordinate against a man who gave all his political structure and capital to help him win elections.

Buhari was a very terrible man that was so unfit to become the Chairman of his kindred and unfortunately some people used Lagos treasury to foist him on Nigerians to page way for their evil Presidential ambition that have ruined Nigeria as we all can see today.


Osinbajo would have made Nigeria proud as President, honestly Buhari needs to be exhumed to apologize to Nigerians angry
The Osinbajo that you all termed fake pastor when you realized he might have been whom Buhari would support? Lolz. Now because he is not contesting as a Yoruba man he is your favorite. You lot are very predictable.
