If Tinubu Was As Selfish As Saraki He Would Have Ran As VP! by rebranded(op): 1:58pm On Jun 09, 2015
It is very unfortunate that Saraki would put himself first over his party and the Nation!

At this one time where everyone is being selfless and putting aside their personal ambition to move the Nation forward

I hope saraki is happy with his new position at the expense of his party and the new government!

Yes agreed.

Nonsense. Tinubu did not run as VP because it was made absolutely clear to him that a Muslim-Muslim ticket would never work.

Please stop all this weeping over split milk. Tinubu was more than happy to support Tambuwal when he did the same thing. What goes around comes around

Beginning of the end or end of the beginning for APC? Only time will tell.

Saraki can betray anyone for his selfish ambition.

Well, you can't blame the man (Tinubu) for trying his luck!

If he had run for VP, that would have been the death knell for APC. He would have been handing the much vilified and derided PDP/GEJ power on a platter. Even the South West would not have voted for such.
Again, a Muslim/Muslim ticket, as someone pointed out, would not have worked in Nigeria.
The only selling point APC had was GMB, Tinubu running would have rubbished all efforts. The fact is Tinubu is even more greedy than Saraki or any other politician but he knows his best bet is running things behind the scene, installing his stooges and siphoning what he can through them.

Tinubu knew the enormity of public opprobrium around him outside the SW. He knew running as VP would have been suicidal for Apc.

Religious factor hindered tinubu from securing the VP slot even BRF was a better candidate

lol! the only reason Tinubu did not run as VP is because that would mean a Moslem/Moslem Ticket. The reason they brought out Osibanjo who is Tinubus puppet. ............. grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

In Nigeria position = power.

Tinubu always puts someone in position then spends their whole tenure arguing with them. I respect Tinubu because of all the godfathers he's the only one that can get his followers to listen, but trust me, if Tinubu had the trustability and popularity of Saraki he would have run for president sef. Tinubu is not trusted by his own people and hated by others, he himself can't win anything.

The only reason he didnt run as VP is the issue of muslim muslim ticket
