I do t know how PBAT is going to give YAYI out for other candidates
Re: Iyabo Obasanjo Visits President Bola Tinubu In Lagos by helinues:
Yayi for Lagos state governor..He's tested and trusted.

No room for him in Ogun state..Yayi can't served Lagos state for over 2 decades and suddenly remember about Ogun state to be the best state to govern. Go and govern the state you represented for decades

As for Iyabo, we might soon see Dimeji Bankole visiting president Tinubu too

You will soon know. Online politics is different from the local politics

Everyone is trying to lobby the President. But it won't work. Best she can get is Deputy.

I am not from Ogun State but from what I gathered from colleagues and associates YAYI is fully on ground. Are you saying otherwise?

What you gathered online. Yayi is not popular locally.. Moreover there are some sentiments and politics at play

For example, Ogun East will be completing 16 years as Governor, Ogun Central only had 12 years yet no Deputy governor

Ogun West ( Yewa already have 2 Deputy governors including the current one though they are yet to have the governor

Ijebu and Remo supposed to be playing same politics but Remo have been outsmarting them. The Ijebu are also yet to produce the governor or deputy governor

There is also Imala axis which never produced both governor and DG

Please which excuse of marginalization do the Yewa people want to come about? Are they more popular than the Ijebu's in the state?
Re: Iyabo Obasanjo Visits President Bola Tinubu In Lagos by SmartPolician: 6:22am On Apr 08
Tinubu should make Hon Femi Gbajabiamila the Governor of Lagos. He will be more useful in Lagos than the presidency

Well, I hope you the people of Ogun resolve this as quickly as possible. Ogun State is a very important stakeholder in our great party, the APC.

So who do you think is the most plausible solution and which way is DA tilting to as the sitting governor?

It's beginning to make sense.

This is not about zoning or marginalization. This is about antecedents and competency.


Yayi has folds of edges ahead of others.
Even serious minded Ogun state residents and voters won't like to miss this opportunity.

Suddenly everyone wants to be governor of a state in Nigeria undecided
Re: Iyabo Obasanjo Visits President Bola Tinubu In Lagos by israelmao(m): 6:33am On Apr 08
Iyabo could make history as the first Nigerian female democratic governor that's if the odds favour her.

I don't even play the local politics. But Yayi as Ogun state governor is just like an insult on the people of the state

He can't represent Lagos state for that so long and suddenly remember about Ogun state. That's the sentiments on ground

Yayi as Ogun state governor is only popular amongst the Lagos boys, his supporters not on ground. Online popularity is different from local popularity

The Lisabi day and Egbaliganza, you have no idea about what they might have discussed about regarding 2027.

You people should stop making this numb arguments.

You are talking about Osun and Kogi State..

This is Ogun state, the bedrock of Nigeria politics. Check the records of the past leaders and see which state lead the way till today.

I don't want to bother about the other epistle you wrote, but the first sentence saying YAYI is not popular locally, whatever that means, is completely false

He's not.. Didn't you learn anything from Peter Obi in 2023?

Yayi is from Yewa where GNI and Akinlade are from. Please are those 2 in support of Yayi's candidacy? those who made attempt before Yayi.

If he's candidacy from his own zone is facing rejection, why should others support him.

Akinlade support yayi governorship bid. Ogun west senatorial district have been marginalized for years.

This woman has nothing to offer. When she was a senator, the only thing relevant about her was 'the president's daughter'.
