Shameless man.

From Senate to Governor.

Now back to Senate again?

Is Imo State your personal property like Tinubu owns Lagos?

This is APC formula (Akpabio bye bye)
never gonna happen. it has already been zoned to south south. if Akpabio is not longer favoured then oshiomohle become the next Senate president. he can't even win is senatorial district for Tinubu. 2031 he might be lucky to be Senate president because south south will get the vice president. south south will surely deliver many votes for Tinubu reelection and he will not support any igbo man for the no three job. never.

He is not a first timer…Go and check
And Tinubu won’t allow Oshiomole..
oshiomohle was Tinubu first choice for Senate president but the Senate first time rule was against him. no south east and south south politician that is closer to Tinubu than oshiomohle. you can't deny it out of sentiment anyway but pure fact. Uzodinma will never be SP in 2027. may God keep us till June next year when election will be held.

Then, you will explain why Uzodinma will forfeit Governorship seat to go to Senate.

he don't want to be without power because he has less than two years and he will have to wait till 2031 to contest Senate. Senate convene in June next year after January elections and imo governorship will be before December next year. he would have just have less than six month to the end of his tenure of eight years. think deep to understand very well.

Hope Uzodinma is an Iron hand, he is a billionaire without having any known business.

He is smart and brutal, have u seen him asslicking anybody?

PBAT respect the man more than Wike, hw much more Akpabbio.

This will depend on the votes the SE give to APC.

If they don’t churn out reasonable vote for Tinubu in 2027, then Hope won’t be anything in that next senate.

Then why he no canvass for Asiwaju to even have ordinary 25% votes in the 2023 presidential election in Imo state?

A politician value is the votes he brings. If they can win for themselves and not even guarantee 25% for the center, then their use of sagacity is useless to the party.

When he can easily take a Ministerial slot?
Why did Akpabio then try to block him with the new Senate rule?
Members won't back Oshiomhole, Uzodinma is Chairman PGF

All these nonsense running up and down, they never know if APC will come back next election

The SP seat is for Adams or Hope. Adam is from SS, zoning will rule him out.

He is calm, calculated, and doesn't make noise. People like that are silent killers grin
Someone is shouting Wike, Wike, Wike but I told him that before Wike, Uzodimma was already running things with men that matter.
Most people don't really know who Uzodimma is, someone that became a governor from fourth position grin

Man is extremely dangerous. I'm not a fan of his or anything APC, but I know enough to know how dangerous this Hopeless man is.

Someone like Wike has more money to throw around, but in the real scheme of things, in the entire Southern Nigeria, Hopeless has no match - apart from the Satan-in-Chief himself currently occupying Aso Rock - as far as this demonic kind of power politics is concerned.

Only God will deliver Nigeria from these people.

I don't understand, is he going to relinquish his governor seat to his deputy? Hope Uzodima has 2 solid year remaining as a sitting governor as he was put there by a supreme Court judgement.
He can contest while in office as governor. But once he takes oath of office as a senator, assuming he wins in the election, he automatically ceases to be governor that day and moment. He doesn't even need to resign.

SS is getting VP in 2031. It's between Akpabio, Oshiomhole and Wike.

The probable calculation is for SE to become SP so as to market APC in the SE and reduce Obi's votes.

Hmmn, okay.
But if Uzodinma doesn't become SP will he be willing to become a floor member when he could have been made a Minister with solid portfolio within those 6 months!
Minister of State, Petroleum
Minister of Aviation
Minister of Foreign Affairs
Minister of Interior

Hope knows how to use power.
The President will not allow someone like that control the Senate.
That's the mistake them Buhari and Oyegun made with Saraki.

Don't mind them, with all the praises on hope by them, hope couldn't give Tinubu 25% votes in Imo state in the last election but when it got to his own election, he won convincingly. They think Tinubu doesn't know them and they are only flocking round him because he is the president. Let Obi or Atiku win 2027 election and let's see if within 6 months hope won't defect to the newest party in power. But Oshiomhole can never defect

Nigeria has been hijacked by demons in human form

The people running the affairs of this country are evil, wicked and brutal
They have completely everyone aside and daring us to do our worst

Imagine how they are rotating positions for themselves and sharing our common wealth.

A governor that’s yet complete his tenure is obtaining a senate form, what a country

Tinubu won't allow Oshiomhole? All these emergency lovers of Tinubu and APC, I hail una. Do you think Oshiomhole attacked Akpabio recently on behalf of Uzodinma? Or you think if Oshiomhole had not voiced out and immediately reported the issue to Tinubu, Tinubu would have asked that the order be rescinded?
For your information, aside Yorubas, Tinubu knows his most diehard lover and supporter is Oshiomhole. Oshiomhole has been following Tinubu since 2006 right from AC to ACN and to APC. It was Oshiomhole that brought Tinubu party to the whole of SS, when all the Akpabio, Hope, Wike and others were in PDP
That’s not how politics is being played

Maybe you will have to tell me how politics is being played. To the best of my political knowledge, Tinubu is the best when it comes to keeping political agreement and appreciating loyalty. Again, Tinubu doesn't need Uzodinma or the S/E for whatever reason when he wins second term, so there's no need picking Uzodinma for the purpose of pacifying the S/E.
We in Edo APC already knows Oshiomhole is the next SP according to Tinubu.

Because Akpabio knows he has been occupying that position that rightfully belongs to Oshiomhole if not for the first term order rule in the senate. So, he tried to bring a new rule to again sideline Oshiomhole but Oshiomhole is too politically brutal to accept such. Oshiomhole openly challenging Akpabio and within 24 hours the rule was rescinded should tell you something.
