You and your fellows love to blow hot air just coz you are yet to get over your obsession with GEJ loss. This so-called faction has existed since the merger of parties that became APC. And this is not the first time they will be crying to Buhari over their marginalization. They are Cpc arm of the merger and it is not only in Lagos that they are being marginalized, the story is the same in Oyo (shittu faction in oyo, even the one in sokoto is also alleging marginalization)

https://leadership.ng/2018/02/11/defunct-cpc-members-allege-marginalization-apc/


But they are just wasting their time & wont smell power in the state because it is obvious where their loyalty lies, aside the fact that they have no political base whatsoever. OBJ gave Obanikoro more powers than Fashola and Fayemi can ever have under this admin, with the clear goal of taking over Lagos and he still failed woefully. Where is the same Obanikoro today? cheesy

What you guys fail to understand is that Fashola may be disgruntled, but he knows his limits and there is a line he will never cross. Fayemi on the other hand wont overreach himself by meddling in Lagos politics because he has absolutely no base. The FG will have to be willing to go bankrupt to outspend Tinubu APC faction in Lagos. A million Fayemis cannot even match Fayose in Ekiti, yet you of all people are here fantasizing about him plotting to take over Lagos? grin Fayemi should first of all go and retake Ekiti. Fayose's 16-0 record against him as an incumbent is still intact for him to contend with.

This current Buhari administration will terminate at some point (matter of fact the party is destined to split, and Buhari presidency is the only thread still holding it together), and those characters you mentioned will fade into oblivion like their contemporaries because they are political neophytes outside office without any grassroot support.

If push comes to shove, Tinubu will leave APC for Buhari with his machinery intact and tackle them head on the way he did Obasanjo and his PDP. He still has enough loyalists all across the SW states (including edo) to create another party and movement owing to his experience in party politics and after having spent so long in the trenches.

I dont even think Buhari will be willing to go that far to confront bat, so you guys can chill with this your fantasies.
Although nobody knows yet the actual outcome of all these backward politics played by those greedy old men, your analogy is completely flawed. OBJ and Tinubu were on diff party but today the people fighting Tinubu (if at all their is any fight) are his own men in the same party with him. Do you think this admin will allow inec to register new party that will challenge them? You are a learner if you think so. Buhari is not GEJ. If at all they want to bench Tinubu, their is nothing he can do other than to retire himself quietly and leave in peace otherwise he will be a regular visitor to the court premises till bubu finish his second term. Remember Tinubu is not the Governor anymore, Ambode might not like to sacrifice his own political feature cos of Tinubu. Tinubu is in dilemma right now if all insinuations are true.

wat u just wrote only made sense in ur own head the analogy he presented stands buhari and his people might be snakes but tinubu is no yesterday politician he has also been at this backward politics for a long time

Exactly,the lust for power and the desire to be the vice president blinded tinubu and his close pals to the reality that buhari,Fulanis cannot be trusted, they stupidly neglected and discarded all warnings by notable politicians from the south west then that buhari isn't someone that can be trusted. Now he is in a fix ,the only game he can play now is the sympathy card by making himself look discarded and persecuted,he has the social media at his disposal and the financial means to do that,but the issue remains whether he will remain in the party and allow fashola and co to dictate the pace while he is relegated or leave the party. The reconciliatory mission is just a smokescreen to make tinubu look like a failed politician, buhari knows that some issues can't be sorted out but yet sent tinubu on a wild goose chase,now even before the mission is about to take off,they have encountered problems with the party chairman,when pdp raised this point last 2weeks many ppl didn't see the reason in it
which Fasola? The one that lost is ward to PDP during the last election or Fayemi that lost 16-0 as incumbent? Those guys are too infantile to cause any political brouhaha in SW. Despite federal might and substitutions, Akeredolu won APC primary in Ondo because Aregbe and Ilori supported Oke instead of Abraham. Ekiti and Osun likely going PDP, Oyo and Ogun will likely go pro Tinubu... Tinubu cannot ditch Buhari because VP position needed to be protected from vultures, any attempt by Buhari to replace Osinbajo with Okorocha will likely pitch Buhari vs Osinbajo in 2019...watchout

Continue dreaming. I know you would love nothing more than to see the scenario you painted to come to pass, but you are merely exposing your own folly. A thousand Buharis cant do shyt to Tinubu if he decides to leave APC today. And you can quote me anyday. You talk as if there are currently no states under opposition parties (APGA, PDP) in Nigeria. The cpc arm of APC in Lagos is practically DEAD because their members have been completely shut out of power and patronage by the main body. Do you think with all the federal might that Buhari or APC can take over Taraba from PDP/Danjuma grip? Or that Gombe, Rivers, Enugu, and Akwa Ibom will fall to APC just because Buharis in power. Like are you fvcking kidding me? Or that Kwara will fall to Buhari if Saraki leaves APC today. Politics is local. And that is the same reason why bat still has an iron grip on the grassroot APC in Lagos.

Also, you are obvious naive if you think that Inec refusal to register another party would stop the move to a new party, when there are more than enough parties already in existence as we speak that can be hijacked for the exact same purpose.

Opposition politics is what BAT knows how to do best. Buhari cant be worse than Abacha so forget the hype. He has only a max of 5 more years as president after which he will likely retire back to his cattle ranch. He would be stupiid to devote his 2nd term in office to confronting BAT when he has more pressing economic and security issues to contend with nationally. Keep dreaming.

It is obvious tinubu will face a serious challenge to his authority in the south west, we said it years ago when the saraki issue started that eventually tinubu will be relegated to the background,the president already has ppl on ground ready to snatch the south west apc from tinubu,they did it in ondo,kogi and even osun state successfully. Fayemi ,fashola and co are on the mission of taking over. I am sure some south west governors will rather follow the presidents men than tinubu who now has less to offer.
At the end of the day ,only Lagos State may be left in tinubu hands and even in the same Lagos he will likely be facing serious opposition
It's seems you forgot that they are all politician and they all know the way it is played. Tinubu still has the mandate of SW with him.
Saraki has no say in SW, Akeredolu is just a baby politician, kogi state governor has no say in SW. If APC make a mistake by sidelining Tinubu, believe SW is out and SS will divide. Oyegun can't even deliver any SS governor election.
Just forget about media news and face the reality, every one of them know what Tinubu can do he brought APC together and he can also divide it. And that is dangerous to the ruling party and I believe they will never make such mistake and I believe that has been the plan of the opposition and that Is the major reason they have been a lot of propaganda on social media.

It seems you have forgotten that no single politician has the monoploy of power in every state ,and strong politicians rely on the collective strength of each state individual power brokers,you seem to have forgotten that without the likes of saraki and co in kwara state tinubu is zero in kwara . It is people that makes someone powerful. Without the support of local grassroot strong politicians in Lagos State,apc will be nothing. You call akeredolu a baby politician but yet he was able to defeat ur jagaban candidate handsdown,tinubu thought he had the strong men of ondo politics behind him,he moved his candidate to AD and he lost woefully. Same thing happened to faleke his candidate,same way his candidate was pushed out of osun senatorial elections,same way his ministerial list was scaled down,
If you think osinbajo is anything then you need to reassess the game very well,the VP slot is nothing it is just a ceremonial post.
Governors , senators not from Lagos are moving to the presidential camp and openly backing oyegun against tinubu.just wait and see what will happen. Even tinubu wife has openly admitted that her husband was"thrashed" immediately buhari took power.
