A public commentator, David Adenekan has reacted to Tinubu’s response with this rejoinder:

To start with, the response of Tinubu can be termed rhetoric and playing to the gallery.

Frankly speaking, the exigency of time has made the democratic values and cultures concocted in his article in the midst of the internal political crisis that has engulfed the ruling party, APC highly irrelevant.

Suffice to say that the die is cast and the many warring factions in this contraption consisting of strange bedfellows in the ruling party (APC) are not likely to sheath their swords. The party is currently on a sand of illegality and nothing promising can be built on illegality.

As a political scientist, it is very unlikely that this purported hands of olive branch extended by the blame master himself (Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu) can save the party from implosion and its eventual demise in the nearest future.

With the obvious reality of the looming crisis, Tinubu that firmly controls one of the richest cities in Sub Saharan Africa, Lagos is playing the ostrich game. He’s been sarcastic and being truthful by half to refer to himself as a “mere mortal” that cannot see beyond many of his political adversaries.

This is a man that has in place, a well oiled political structure to actualise his clandestine inordinate ambition. How he thinks many will believe the rhetoric of a self styled “National leader” that has no official recognition in the party’s constitution baffles my imagination.

Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu can be likened to a metaphoric characteristic of a stubborn he – goat who is desperately driven by inordinate ambition, and not mindful of the obvious reality that the rat race is over.

Why is he behaving like a gullible unrepentant he – goat about to be slaughtered by the butcher man, not sensing his political permutations to play God will hit the rock.

Both Tinubu and Adam Oshimhole are “twin iron fist” that makes impracticable every democratic norm and value in All Progressive Congress (APC). Are we not beginning to see the backlash effects of the iron fist in trying to arrogate too much power to himself?

Is this not the irony of a blame master, blaming himself for the misfortune of his own doing?

What a paradox, and the beginning of the end!

Time will tell.

Hmmmmm

Leave Tinubu let him go, stop talking about him.

I don't know why young people praise the guy soo much he has outlived his usefulness, he is bereft of ideas isn't it clear?

If he had any idea that would have bettered Nigeria don't you think he would have implemented it already? Or suggested it to Bubu or atleast osibanjo and Fashola and his other minions and ex minions.

This guy will not improve Nigeria don't be decieved. His good ideas finished in lagos

Tinubu has been sidelined
Tinubu is no longer relevant
Tinubu is kicked aside
Tinubu has been used and dumped.

....but the top executives of APC and their governors continue to honor and visit the man on crucial issues.

This is fresh minted news...brought to you within the hour.

The first person the newly inaugurated committe visited was Tinubu and Akande.

Next week Governors are going to Lagos to see him.


Ota n'lu ilu ibaje, Oba Oluwa koni je o dun! To ba de dun....omo ota lo ma jo!
