Atiku the political prostitute

Politics is about interests there are no friends in politics just interests,to this end it would be safe to say all politicians are prostitutes .....
What parties were mist if your leaders including BUHARI ?

LasGidiOwner:
Atiku will trash Bubu in the north. With the VP from the SE(block votes), it will be a walk in the park as the SS(block votes) and NC(block votes) will vote massively for Atiku presidency than Buhari presidency. SW will be divided alongside PDP/APC/AD thereby making it impossible for APC to win handsomely in the region.

At the end Atiku will score the highest votes across Nigeria to send the incompetent Buhari back to Daura.

In your dreams... if wishes were horses... your political calculations is so pejorative ...I can't even see Atiku winning PDP ticket

Best wishes for the future!

He can't win. He is going back to apc after 2019. He is a political prostittute

He can't win true bt that doesn't negate d fact dat his points are vaiid. Apc need to work on its internal issues and democracy to survive and last and buhari shud lead that by adding his value and watever good principles he has to the party so dat things don't die when he leaves rather he seems to be running a 1man show and its pretty disorganized.

He is very welcome back to the party, 2019 is gonna be hot!

You are right, but atiku was just looking for an excuse

smalls001:
Good idea but look at our system and tell me how many you can find who at the age of 35 have the right qualification and experience to hold government office positions.

I am. The guys who support the offices of these old men should be the ministers .

coolcharm:
No principles. Just jumping up and down.

A smart politician needs to to win party politics and internal democracy first of. This is what Nigerian politicians don't do.

No political ideology, even the parties self, they don't have any identity except corruption which is a common denominator among all of them.

Imagine a Democrat crossing carpet to the Republican party... That is clearly a technical knockout on his/her political ambition.

Stay where you are, fight where you are and blossom where you are.

Even in the USA politicians decamp but not as rampant as our

this is d voting pattern of last election as compiled by Mrpolitics. southwestner 's votes alws divided because dey dnt put all thr eggs in one basket unlike SS and SE. wt Atiku contending against Buhari is going to be a colossal loss for Atiku and whichever party dat field him as thr candidate. Atiku is just dancing one corner dance wc wud not make him move from dat corner

You're a good political analyst, clap for yourself. But for your information, Atiku can NEVER win Buhari in the north. You guys should know that Nigeria does not start and end in SS, SE and SW

ATIKU DECAMPS FROM APC

Read statement of resignation below:

Statement of resignation of His Excellency Atiku Abubakar (Waziri Adamawa) Vice President of Nigeria, 1999-2007 from the All Progressives Congress

On the 19th of December, 2013, I received members of the All Progressives Congress at my house in Abuja. They had come to appeal to me to join their party after my party, the Peoples Democratic Party, had become factionalized as a result of the special convention of August 31, 2013.

The fractionalization of the Peoples Democratic Party on August 31, 2013 had left me in a situation where I was, with several other loyal party members, in limbo, not knowing which of the parallel executives of the party was the legitimate leadership.

It was under this cloud that members of the APC made the appeal to me to join their party, with the promise that the injustices and failure to abide by its own constitution which had dogged the then PDP, would not be replicated in the APC and with the assurance that the vision other founding fathers and I had for the PDP could be actualized through the All Progressives Congress.

It was on the basis of this invitation and the assurances made to me that I, being party-less at that time, due to the fractionalization of my party, accepted on February 2, 2014, the hand of fellowship given to me by the All Progressives Congress.

On that day, I said "it is the struggle for democracy and constitutionalism and service to my country and my people that are driving my choice and my decision" to accept the invitation to join the All Progressives Congress.

Like you, I said that because I believed that we had finally seen the beginnings of the rebirth of the new Nigeria of our dreams which would work for all of us, old and young.

However, events of the intervening years have shown that like any other human and like many other Nigerians, I was fallible.

While other parties have purged themselves of the arbitrariness and unconstitutionality that led to fractionalization, the All Progressives Congress has adopted those same practices and even gone beyond them to institute a regime of a draconian clampdown on all forms of democracy within the party and the government it produced.

Only last year, a governor produced by the party wrote a secret memorandum to the president which ended up being leaked. In that memo, he admitted that the All Progressives Congress had "not only failed to manage expectations of a populace that expected overnight ‘change’ but has failed to deliver even mundane matters of governance".

Of the party itself, that same governor said "Mr. President, Sir Your relationship with the national leadership of the party, both the formal (NWC) and informal (Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Atiku Abubakar, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso), and former Governors of ANPP, PDP (that joined us) and ACN, is perceived by most observers to be at best frosty. Many of them are aggrieved due to what they consider total absence of consultations with them on your part and those you have assigned such duties."

Since that memorandum was written up until today, nothing has been done to reverse the treatment meted out to those of us invited to join the All Progressives Congress on the strength of a promise that has proven to be false. If anything, those behaviours have actually worsened.

But more importantly, the party we put in place has failed and continues to fail our people, especially our young people. How can we have a federal cabinet without even one single youth.

A party that does not take the youth into account is a dying party. The future belongs to young people.

I admit that I and others who accepted the invitation to join the APC were eager to make positive changes for our country that we fell for a mirage. Can you blame us for wanting to put a speedy end to the sufferings of the masses of our people?

Be that as it may be, after due consultation with my God, my family, my supporters and the Nigerian people whom I meet in all walks of life, I, Atiku Abubakar, Waziri Adamawa, hereby tender my resignation from the All Progressives Congress while I take time to ponder my future.

May God bless you and may God bless Nigeria.

No surprises here.

Nigerian politicians are some of the most unprincipled and shameless lot anywhere in the world.

Especially this Atiku fellow.

Tueh!!!

TANTUMERGO007:
The only mistake Atiku made in this life was when he had the governors at his disposal prior to 2003 election, he allowed Obasanjo to go for his second term after the latter begged him. I wish Atiku success

Every morning, Atiku wakes up, and he shudders when he recalls that monumental fuckup.
It is made worse by subsequent happenings:
Reporters to OBJ: Mr. President, your Vice Atiku is running for office and fancies his chances. What is your take?
OBJ: *didn't give long speech* *didn't detract his now foe* simply chuckled and said the three hardest words in the history of Nigeria, I DEY LAFF.

God.

When he quit pdp,apc was jubilating,now he's quit apc for only God knows where. Political prostitution. If pdp wants to redeem their image,they better not allow him back in

nairanaira12:
You are right, but atiku was just looking for an excuse

Yes don't mind him hes just an inpatient man with a tall ambition. He will never learn it seems. Bt Apc is doing a poor job in keeping its strong hold.

Atiku running for president with Ngozi Nwela as Vice president will surely give APC nightmares

Glory that u are out of their bondages.

ooshinibos:
I believe

Lol.

No permanent friends/enemies in politics.

To think I'd even give an Atiku candidacy a thought shows how far the pecking order Bubu has fallen.

Sai Baba fall our hands big time. *Sigh*

[He cant win Adamawa.. quote author=swuftz post=62668891]

In your dreams... if wishes were horses... your political calculations is so pejorative ...I can't even see Atiku winning PDP ticket[/quote]

ATIKU for President,
Donald Duke or Jimi Agbaje for VP

2019 go hot kpai!

Rejoice not PDP because the great political prostitute has returned to your party and he is out to wreck more havoc
Woe unto any political party that thinks Atiku will add value because from the time of John the babtist the spirit of political prostitution took over Atiku and that spirit is not leaving him soon

I don't want to call Atiku a prostitute because I respect him. But like they do call prostitutes 'commercial sex-workers' these days, I say Atiku is a 'political sex-worker'!

Saraki is next

PHILipu1:
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
And you think that only south-east that make up the southern part of Nigeria?
If the south-east don't need the presidency in 2023,the south-south and south-west need it and few states votes from south-south or south-west will swallow up all the votes from South-east.

Do you really think that people like Ebonyi,Imo,Anambra states governors will watch and PDP will win those states.

Take it or leave it,governors decide where votes go to in a federal election as long there is no federal intervention.
Rochas will win Imo for APC for sure.
David has openly ask Ebonyi people to support and vote Buhari for second term.
Obiano will say thank you to Buhari for not using federal might in Anambra to rig him out by winning Anambra for Buhari.

Or you think there are no people in south-east that want to be president in 2023?

Which state do PDP control in North central that you think PDP can win north central?
Kogi,Nasarawa,Plateau or Kwara?
All this states are control by Buhari loyal boys and they will no sit and watch PDP take those states.

Politics is like a chess game ok.

You are so trashy in your analysis
You sure don't understand the dynamics
Everyone mustn't be a political analyst
You for sure are not one..

LasGidiOwner:
Did you drink kai-kai?

SE will prefer a VP at hand than the presidency they don't know about in 2023 or whatever.

As for SE, it is already locked down for Atiku once he gives them VP which has already been zoned by the PDP to the SE. SS and NC will easily vote Atiku than touching anything that has to do with Buhari. Atiku has strong followership in the North. The North will be divided by Atiku and Buhari. The SW will be divided also by Buhari and Atiku. But the SE/SS/NC will be a block vote to Atiku.

Atiku wins.

Which weed are u smoking?

Obanikoro a strong force for Pdp in Lagos is now in APC, Ondo Apc, Osun APC, Oyo/Ekiti devided

Edo ApC, pdp have no strong force again, and majority of their house of Assembly member will decamp to get re-election

So South West can never be for Atiku, your maths is not adding Up oga

Election is not won by Emotion and sentiments

So south west should vote against their own VP and vote for an igbo VP

Think well oga

KwoiZabo:
100% Supported. All the Anti-Atiku, my question is this. If Nigeria is Your Company, will you employ an Atiku or a Buhari?

A PMB 10000000%

Quality20:
even if he stays in ApC n bcoms president he still gonna go back to PDP. Just like Yuguda of bauchi state after winning under ANPP he decamped back to PDP. Anyway when is mama taraba decamping to PDP n also resigning from gov?

Mama Taraba and Saraki should simply tell us when they are leaving

I wish Dogara stays, he is a bridge builder

But saraki should leave

FrankFrenzy:
You are so trashy in your analysis

.
Since 1999 that we started Democracy in Nigeria,i have never failed any prediction when it comes to federal or governorship elections in Nigeria and you can quote me after 2019 elections ok.
Buhari will win 2019 elections with huge votes.

TGaines:
Nigeria voters. Stop voting all this crook and criminals pdp today apc tommorrow pdp next tommorrow apc another they they are fooling u peoples no any idea to move country forward all they r after is there pocket all of them are criminals

Lol, if u take a deeper look at it, it is so true
But victory don't come that cheap

seunmsg:
Good riddance! I wish him the best as he seeks to contest the 2019 presidential election on the PDP platform though.

However, Atiku's unelectability is still very much around to plague him. The baggage of corruption on his neck is too heavy to be ignored. 2019 will be a walk over for Buhari if PDP presents Atiku.

I can't remember any court of competent jurisdiction or Judicial inquiry indicting Atiku of corruption charges. Please if there is any kindly educate us.

PHILipu1:
Adamawa and Taraba?
Write it down that Buhari will defeat Atiku in both states.
Atiku will now move his people from APC to PDP and those in PDP upto now will feel threaten and then move to APC.
It's a circle.

Dat Taraba Governor self, if Mama peace should go to Pdp, he may decamp to APC ohhhhh, more over he has been romancing PMB
