The ADC an organization of strange bedfellows, imagine Aregbesola, Amaechi, Atiku , Obi, David Mark & co working together?

I suspect Aregbesola & Amaechi are amongst the APC spies in their midst.

Point of correction, aside Aregbesola the rest were in PDP together for 8 - 12 years of PDP. Even ElRufai.

Ok, so El Rufai will gladly work with Gringory Obi to remove his friend Tinubu from power?

What will gringory offer him, that Tinubu couldn’t give him?

You go explain tire. Cos na babablu you dey pour everywhere.


When Igbo people supported Obasanjo, it wasn't alignment?
When Igbo people supported Yar Adia, it wasn't alignment?
Even in 2019, when Igbo people supported Atiku, it wasn't alignment?

Enyi a, zuo ike.

All you have written no get isi or ọdụ.

I will really appreciate it if you can calm down.

No one is disputing whether you supported candidates from other regions or not. However, this is what people truly mean when they describe your style of politics as nzogbu nzogbu. You supported Atiku Abubakar and Umaru Musa Yar’Adua from the North—but you supported them strictly as individuals. At that time, they were simply the Northern candidates presented to you.
The problem arose after their tenures. Suddenly, your supporters began referring to Northerners as animals, illiterates, and other unprintable names. Put yourself in their position: how would you feel if your entire ethnic group were constantly insulted and denigrated simply because of a change in political alignment?

You also supported Obasanjo, which is perfectly fine. But what happened when Tinubu entered the presidential race in 2023? Look at the barrage of insults and unprintable names directed at elders and clerics who openly supported him. There is a clear difference between opposing or criticising an individual politician and extending that hostility to his entire ethnic group. The latter is unacceptable.
When someone attacks your brother, you may choose to respond or ignore it. But when your entire family is attacked, you will naturally defend them with everything you have. That is human nature.

Consider the tenure of President Goodluck Jonathan. He faced severe criticism and humiliation from South-Western opposition figures. Yet, did anyone resort to consistently abusing his entire ethnic group or publicly insulting his elders without restraint?
The moment you begin to blame and insult an entire tribe because of the perceived failure of one individual, your argument loses credibility. Anyone who does that is not being courageous—they are simply being cowardly.


And finally on this note; don't expect Obi to see those numbers of votes he garnered in 2023 election in 2027. Ireee ooooo.

I didn't read the whole babablu.

One cold bottle for you on the last paragraph especially!

I've always told people on this platform that this presidency thing is not something you group yourself today and claim you want to wrestle power tomorrow just because you believe you have the numbers, it's not going to happen in one night.

Tinubu being a president in 2023 did not start working on it in 2022. This is a negotiation he started as far back as 2013/2014 before Buhari became president and that's one of the leverages that brought Buhari into power.

If the easterners truly wants this position, the time to start is now and their chance is 2039 (provided they're willing to endure the long journey)!

They must accept the fact that the flight for 2027 presidency has long taken off but they can start the negotiation for 2039 slot now so they will be well positioned to take over from the North after their own 8 year tenor.

Anything outside this is mere exercise in futility. But the only issue I always have with them is that any exercise that's not benefiting them right now, they're not interested. And as a result, they have a very long way to go.

Tinubu betrayed ElRufai 💔 after the latter SINGLE-HANDEDLY handed him the APC ticket.
Go and check, it was ElRufai that stood up against Buhari. He gathered 5 northern governors to help Tinubu get APC ticket against Buhari backed Amaechi.

I agree 💯.

This is the reason I always frown at Peter Obi and the leadership of the obidients movement for turning a blind eye on all these things without cautioning them and letting them know the long-term consequences of all these attacks. Up until this moment, even on this platform, just have an argument with an average obidient, he must insult you just because your own opinion doesn't align with his.

Also, your last paragraph is on point because what he got in 2023 was sympathy votes but people are wiser and can now see clearly. He will struggle to see half of that number in the next election, that is if he's fortunate enough to be on the ballot because the odds are against him at the moment after aligning with the party that has Alh. Atiku Abubakar as the lead contestant.

Lastly, I don't see Peter Obi becoming a president in this country if he fails to register his own party and call the shots from there. Being a tenant in other parties will not help him because the founders of those parties have their own ambitions.

How many delegates voted for Amaechi, how many voted for Tinubu? It wasn’t even close, in as much as Presidenti Buhari’s kitchen cabinet tried to scuttle Tinubu they failed woefully, & they will all pay in due time.

Emefiele & Malami have started the new era, so let the others enjoy their brief stay in The ADC, but I am not here to banter on an issue of the past.

So please don’t try & change the narrative, do u believe that El Rufai will support Gringory Obi against his friend Tinubu?

I know he will never support Obi against Atiku, I want your opinion on whether u believe he will support Obi against Tinubu?

Or is there anything Obi can promise or offer El Rufai in the future, that President Tinubu cannot offer him today?

No wahala Streetinvestor, goodluck to your political gladiators.

But know this, northerners now or in 100 years to come when this our generation has even gone will never handover power to an easterner.

Is it better for SW to hold it so you don't have an argument. The SE has no business being in same country with that region. You are gaining from it because we are servicing the economy of lagos states which benefits that region. Is it north that sentenced Kanu to prison and bringing igbo properties down out of envy.It this present government not only Yoruba president even if it is in the south.

True word akpumping7720, let me tell street investor about a fact, that no northern male Muslim in the Adc today, will support an Igbo Christian candidate that has 8 years, over a Yoruba Muslim president with only 4 years left as president.

Your Gringory will be used & dumped, if u think anyone is going to make him the candidate of the ADC.

He was brought to the adc for only 1 reason, to deputize his boss Abubakar Atiku.

Let me begin by congratulating President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in advance on his victory in the coming 2027 presidential election.

I have said it repeatedly on this platform: the most realistic pathway to an Igbo presidency in Nigeria runs through a sitting South-West president.

Politics in Nigeria—especially when it comes to dealing with the North—requires careful calculation and deep understanding. The Northern political establishment is not easy to outmanoeuvre. With their long-held “born-to-rule” mentality, power is something they believe they are entitled to, and they are often willing to assert it forcefully.

Former President Goodluck Jonathan’s emergence did not happen by accident. It was the product of careful planning and political permutations by Chief Olusegun Obasanjo. Obasanjo understood the health challenges of President Yar’Adua and deliberately positioned Jonathan as vice president. Many within the PDP caucus were unaware of this long-term plan, but Baba knew that the time had come for the goose that laid the golden egg to also have a taste of power.

Today, history appears to be presenting another opportunity—this time in the person of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Why do you think many governors from the Eastern extraction are increasingly aligning with him? Tinubu understands the Northern oligarchy. He has dined and wined with them. He knows their strengths, their fears, and their pressure points. More importantly, he has learnt from the mistakes of leaders like Chief Obafemi Awolowo and Chief MKO Abiola.

Consider the political drama that preceded the 2023 elections. Tinubu played the game masterfully. After becoming president, did you see him repeat those theatrics? No. He had achieved his objective.

Even if Peter Obi had won the 2023 election, would he have been able to restrain the Northern power bloc and their entrenched interests—many of whom control instruments capable of sabotaging the economy? That is a hard question many refuse to ask honestly.

The reality is this: any Igbo man aspiring to lead Nigeria must recognise the moment and align strategically. This is not the time for political isolation or moral grandstanding. It is the time to learn from the man who knows the road—the man who understands who to align with, who to avoid, and how power is truly negotiated in Nigeria.

Politics is not driven by emotion; it is driven by strategy. And those who want power must first understand how it is won.

Igbos want to do exactly what Yorubas did in 2015

I will choose one northern person over 1000 person from your region based on different experience living in both regions. The worst enemy of SE is people from your region because of envy .We have nothing in common with your region. The enemity that has ever existed btw SE and north is always created by your people for your political and economic gains.
