2023 Presidency: Why Is Tinubu Afraid Of Responding To Saraki's Claims? by hisexcellency34(op): 3:09pm On Aug 26, 2018
Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has not uttered a word since Senate President Bukola Saraki revealed that he is doing everything to support Buhari because of personal reasons.

Saraki claimed though Tinubu is not happy with Buhari's leadership style, he is supporting him because he wants him to complete his term and handover to him in 2023 when power rotates to the South.


The Igbos who are nursing the presidency in 2023 are unhappy over the development, yet Tinubu has not uttered a word. Why is this so?

I find it hard to believe that anyone with a small iota of sense will believe that Tinubu who has been at loggerheads with Saraki since 2015 and knows how desperate as a person he is, will tell him of his presidential ambition knowing fully well that Saraki will more than likely to be eyeing that slot.

are u tinubu? Y are you thinking for him. it is people like you that needs an iota of sense. tinubu has never hid his plans to become a president . SARAKI is a politician who can detect the smell of deceit,lies and schemes of tinubu. they all know his plans and he will be disgraced and dumped when they finish using him

Except you have any evidence to the contrary, Tinubu has never openly said he wants to contest for presidency, on the contrary he supported Atiku in 2007, Ribadu in 2011 and PMB in 2015. Well, I do not know if Tinubu plans to contest or not, he is a politicians and has a legal right to either contest or not to contest but for Saraki to claim that Tinubu told him when they are not even friends should arouse in any sensible human being that it is not likely. I will take that kind of statement serious if someone like Bisi Akande makes that statement, not a Saraki looking for any straw to hold on to.

what's wrong in Tinubu becoming the president in 2023?
Re: 2023 Presidency: Why Is Tinubu Afraid Of Responding To Saraki's Claims? by magoo10(m): 4:37pm On Aug 26, 2018
Because all saraki said is the truth ,what else does tinubu have to say.

Why is Saraki scared of going to the police over the Offa robbery?

Maybe president of the Armed Robbers Association of Nigeria. Definitely not the president of Nigeria.

since SILENCE IS THE BEST ANSWER TO A FOOL.

A national leader of the All Progressive Congress Bola Tinubu, on Wednesday said if he were as ambitious as the Peoples Democratic Party portrays him to be, he would have broken up the party.
Mr. Tinubu said he pulled out of the race for the vice presidential ticket of the APC voluntarily, for the sake of the party.

This is coming from a person who can read and write! The Senate President and one time 2 term governor of a state is a nobody to Tinubu? I really don't know how to help you because getting you a refund for all the education you've ever paid for can't justify the stupidity of your statement!
Re: 2023 Presidency: Why Is Tinubu Afraid Of Responding To Saraki's Claims? by hisexcellency34(op): 5:15pm On Aug 26, 2018
Mind you, they are both former governors but Saraki as the number three man in Nigeria today is not Tinubu's mate

grin grin grin unua nor go kill me with laff!!!!!! I can't stop laughing at the way people attack themselves here on Nairaland...

Tinubu wanted to be the vice president in 2015 , he said he willing stepped down for the party's sake because technically he should be the next in line for presidency for APC.. So it's no news!!!

Exactly, but that kind if source will be far more reliable since in their good moments, he would have shared some secrets with him. You seem like a reasonable guy, do you in your hearts of hearts believe that even a politically naïve person will as much as expose such a secret to a supposed opponent not to talk of a politically savvy guy like Tinubu?
I am not saying Tinubu is nursing or not nursing a presidential ambition for 2023 but I just do not see how he will share such an ambition with Saraki who has not hidden his ambition for that position.

"Tinubu stated that he had plans of running for office one day but only on the condition that there was a vacancy in Aso Rock ."

What is wrong in Tinubu vying for the Presidency under a party that he was a major founder ?

Tell me any dead or living Igbo that have contributed more to APC than Tinubu ?
