The things I read online sometimes.

There are a lot of stories inside this one story,but let us start with the reconciliation between Obasanjo and Atiku.

I have been called a political novice here a couple of times,and since i am always open to learning, I want somebody here to educate me on how the reconciliation of Obasanjo and Atiku is beneficial to Atiku's aspiration on wanting to be the President?

Can Obasanjo deliver Ogun State,nay the West to Atiku?truth is, Obasanjo should be grateful Atiku reconciled with him, or else,he would have been a political nobody after this election cycle.

To those peddling the Obasanjo is trying to lobby the US to lift the Visa ban( if really he has) on Atiku, I have this to tell you.

There is a reason the US is not a member of OPEC,Commonwealth of Nations, never contribute Soldiers to UN peace keeping missions and a host of other things. They do not like being told what to do.

If the US has a case against Atiku, Obasanjo does not have the power to influence the US to do anything. Who is he? Let me use a little point to buttress what I am saying.

For those that have dealt with the US as regards filing for Visas for family members before. If the US suspects your application, or if you share a common name with some people of interest (happens to mostly Muslim people)they will put it into what is called an ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESSING(AP) and tell you they want to look into it.

AP can take anywhere from a DAY to many YEARS.

When a case is AP. Even the President of the United States by law, does not have the power to influence, bend or force the State Department to rush or take a favorable or unfavorable decision concerning that application.

If the President of the United States can't influence decisions in his own country, who is Obasanjo to influence a US internal matter?
Bros,

Without hype, you are not just intelligent but smart and possess intellectual eloquence.

OBJ's grip is no longer significance in his home-town (Ibogun) let alone Ogun state. Those rallying around him thought he still possess strong political enigma which has dwindled to relegation zone.

That being said, the USA is sneaky and understands what is on ground. They would remain on stealth mode about the corruption case filed against Atiku but assumes he wins and step his foot on American soil, being a president won't cut it for them as he may be placed behind bars for investigation & trials. Is this the disgrace Nigerians are willing to take? This will further compound our international reputation.

I keep saying it.Buhari is a hypocritical & vindictive humanity.Such a person have no place in a 21st century civilization.
Lol, if Buhari is a hypocrite what would you call Obasanjo? He is worst of them all, bottom line is they are all hypocrites.


Or is it Oyedepo that isn't a hypocrite? Did he attack Fulani and Muslims? Why is he supporting another Muslim Fulani candidate when there are several southern Christian candidate? I'm dead sure you don't have a problem with that.

Dear Hungerbad, this will be my first time of replying your statement.. With all due respect you sound like a young person or an ignorant person..
Have ever bothered to understand why every single president seeks obj endorsement?


Even Gej advised Atiku and even called him boss of all bosses ..I liked the fact that you are open to learning , will give you a bit of lecture..




Nigeria as well as many countries are still under the influence of the world powers and these influence is so strong .. Now in every of these influenced countries, the world powers have what i call intels , they provide the whole intelligence needed by the world powers for that country.. Now in Nigeria, Obj is the chief intel.. Only top first class nigerians knows this and what he can do with it..


Let me put it this way, Obj used it to ban atiku from the US..

The interpretation of what Oyedepo is doing is that he is saying that Atiku is God's choice . . That's how Nigerians will view it.

Pastors need to be careful with politicians, they are not ready to repent, they are using u only for their devilish gains and you know.

They have been swimming around Baba Adeboye for while, and the man is beginning to see how far they are undermining his ministry and name of God.

Now Kumuyi, now Oyedepo.

no need for long stories, we knownhe wasnt excited but what can he do. he just had to look deep inside and find somewhere to put the past behind. He cant fight alone now. and if everyone that can fight together with him has been atikulated, then he will be the one missing out. so he is just conforming to the present reality.

unlike the one in lagos who the whole world begged but couldnt still find space to forgive Ambode....

irrelevant president, evil party members

why are you hating on Atiku?
is he not a fellow Muslim like you?
is it not evident enough that buhari is not working?
should we risk it and vote him back?
what if Stimulating will actually be a good president?
you are a good and objective poster but I've been noticing how you're against your fellow Muslim in Atiku.
is he not Muslim enough?
Re: Atiku: How Kumuyi, Oyedepo, African Leaders Put Pressure On Obj - New Telegraph by lloyds(m): 8:18am On Oct 13, 2018
Bishop Oyedepo is only fighting this govt APC bcoz he was a Jonathan loyalist including Oritsejafor.

Tunde Bakare who is more vocal has kept almost quiet since Buhari entered. . It's all personal. Leave God out all these . .

Is any man of God telling us that Atiku is heaven's choice? Lol.

Nigerians will come for you when they begin to enter the reality. Mark it.

yeah you are right. but what if the case is not that of AP? my brother... to be Candid with you... there's nothing on earth that can't be influenced... either by prayer or by people. obasanjo may know one or two people he could still relate with to get things done. that's the benefits of old friends. just for example.... if George bush have any issue in any of the African country or even Nigeria... someone like obasanjo can wade in and help to solve the issue.... even though it's very difficult for the white to have such issues in a black country. we are d only one praising them as if they are second to none. what will Americans do if they accuse any of their leader or say he won't be able to enter Nigeria for some reasons.... they won't even bother even though we don't have such mind ..
and about obasanjo being not politically relevant...well you might right or not.... we are not in Atiku's shoe... and those who that have been going to him for either endorsement or forgiveness are not fools as well. they know why they did that. but I believe to say obasanjo is irrelevant is not totally true. in 2014...buhari was happy obj supported him... even that may make u a favourite to the international community. we see him travelling to other countries to hold key meetings or positions atimes... that not just for play.
and you know in life.... one don't accumulate enemies... u try to make more friends and limit the number of your enemies.

Whether you like or not, it is obvious the defeat that is coming for your god who is presently occupying Aso villa! Going by performance, Buhari can not be compared to Jonathan. Jonathan's only ''sin'' was the boko haram events which the APC took full advantage of and politicise greatly! Buhari has been a monumental failure!
Really? That was only Jonathan's sin?


I guess the fact that the CBN's governor Lamido Sanusi made allegations that the Jonathan government made away with 20 billion dollars isn't anything to worry about.


Also the fact that the Central Bank was upended during the last elections which saw Jonathan distributing cash in dollars to interest groups to vote for him isn't bad enough, right?


We won't even mention the use of military to intimidate voters and steal an election in Ekiti and the locking out of the federal legislators in Abuja.


I guess the fact that a private jet loaded with cash from the federal government of Nigeria seized in South Africa was lost on you.


Maybe we should contemplate that Jonathan single handedly lost over 7local government areas in the Northeast to Boko Haram where they planted their flags while the Nigerian army boys were running into Cameroon.


I could multiply this, but what's the point. I know you guys suffer from collective amnesia.

I won’t say ur a novice bt...

U don’t seem to know or understand who Obasanjo is in political matters not just in Nigeria or Africa bt across the world. It’s not by money or fame or whether him or his boy is in power.


Obasanjo’s exposure in African and world politics is next to none in Africa. America respects African Top and influential leaders and Obasanjo is one of high regard.


Who is Atiku in world or African politics? Who is even buhari or Ibb? We are talking about someone who has built a world level political image not just by association only bt based on his work and involvement, experience and exposure.

Many of these past leaders go into political oblivion after they leave power because that is the scope and capacity of their political relevance. Obasanjo is well read and exposed in African/international politics. Ibb also bt his image isn’t like obj cos of June 12 and miltary regime issues.


I also think Obasanjo is a very humble man for the exposure and power he has. If tinubu had the level of Obasanjo exposure and experience he cud have been very close to a dictator in Nigeria by now.

Politics get level bro.

Truth is ur acceptance that you're a novice, but the most sympathetic is that you are unteachable.
Even babies knows that there's so much grace on OBJ, Atiku that worked with him for 8 years knows, Buhari knows even Jonathan still ran to him to apologize because he knows.
But you refuse to learn from the learned and the experienced. Keep talking about ogun, your opinion is completely useless to Atiku and as such no body that needs progress in life listens to people like u.
Like Obasanjo said in 2007, I don't know who will be president in Nigeria but I know who will not and that's Atiku. I know those whose words waste; NOVICE

Peter obi's emergence will only strengthen ipob,bmake the south east ungovernable coupled with Boko Haram. Nigeria will breakup if they succeed.l don't see atiku killing his fellow fulani to restore law and order. Obi's chances will make it difficult for atiku because traditionally ibos are not trusted outside south east States. Then what of yorubas? Apc owns Yoruba land, buhari everywhere north except maybe north east

Not sure you remember the movie BlackHawk Down?

It was a UNSC authorised peacekeeping mandate in Somalia. The US troops were part of the mission. In fact they stayed when most of the other peacekeepers were redeployed. Hence they were outgunned by Mohammed Farah Aidid’s militia till another UN intervention force (led by a Nigerian army officer) went in to bail them out. The MSM seems to hide this event.

The US lost 18 servicemen, Rangers and Marines.

But you are right about other things.

Bro i need to tell you this, OBJ is very influential when it comes to political affairs both in Nigeria and beyond. The UN always recognise him more than any other figure in Nigeria. Atiku knows that quite well and his reconciliation with Obj will go a long way to boost his chance of Winning the dullard in Asorock.
