Nigerian politicians are shamelessly situational "patriots." They're irredentists when they're outside the orbit of power and exaggerated "patriots" when they have access to the public till. A man who didn't believe in Nigeria when he didn't have his way now wants to lead it. Ha!

Wow! INTERNET sef. . .never forgets!

Tinubu is gradually being stripped naked by the masters of the game.

@op do you ??
Accept or not Nigeria is a country that was never meant to be one , two. three or even 30 ...
fragment us into 40 units , people would still call for division ....
We were all just forced to stay together against our wish !!
I don't like the bourdillion chimpanzee but he's right on this !!

I wanted to write long comment but I realized Tinubu will NEVER be Nigerian President.

So no need.

Imagine they found this about Peter Obi

OP, please quote the full excerpts of the interview for the reader to know the context in which Tinubu made the alleged statement.
One may also ask: Was he misquoted? Did he refute the report after publication?
May God continue to bless our dear native land of Nigeria and decimate her detractors.

Hmmmm....... All I can say for now is that God should please save us from self ambitious politicians

Who takes Tinubu's presidential ambition serious? Everyone is waiting for him to mistakenly declare it official, he'll in no time denounce it before election campaign starts.

This has to be during the military days.

Level has changed

Opinions have shifted

Allignment and reallignment of interests

Should they fail to get what they crave for, they'll quickly activate option B

Trust any Nigeria politicians at your own peril.

The truth is, Nigeria as presently constituted and administered may never progress.

wow God Pls let Nigeria be divided... one Nigeria is a scam.

Lol

He didn't believe in one Nigeria until he started benefiting from one Nigeria

That was then....

In Jagaba's voice..

Post the full interview and stop trying to bamboozle us with sensational headline.

You cannot bring a headline from an interview granted during the military era without posting the full details. We need to understand the context in which he made the statement.

Hey kid. Don't just post trash to score political cheap.
Endeavour to summarize his points.
Headline wasn't enough to justify the whole point in the content.

Would you have requested for full interview if it was a "Peter Obi" headline..

What else could he have said that warranted such a line sentence?.

That is why I tell you that this people are decievers, lies, croocks. Trust a Yoru.ba man at your peril

Hypocrisy

Yes. I have always advocated that people should read beyond the headline. Even if it was Nnamdi Kanu, I would still like to read the full interview and understand the context. Headlines in Nigeria are largely sensational and misleading.

I am not quite sure about the above post. By my recollection, Tinubu and his forbearers fought a war for One-Nigeria. The wisdom says trust a Yari.ba peep at your...…………..

politicsng:
Normal hypocrisy of Nigerian politicians

Please make it a certain section of Nigerian politicians.

No "SANE" Nigerian believes in one Nigeria.

Nigerians who believe in one Nigeria are either foolish or beneficiaries of the flawed system

emperor tinubu ..

Ibo Christians news

Nothing special here.

Awolowo also said if Igbos leave then yorubas will also leave.

but when Igbos leave,him and his people joined force with north to attack Igbos.

If this is surprising to you guys, then it means this forum is filled with kids very new to Nigeria political situation.

For your own information, Tinubu has been in fore front of sovereign national conference. His voice for it when Jonathan was president
and Jonathan refusal to heed that call made me hate Jonathan. My only surprise is that Tinubu all of a sudden jettisoned that idea immidiately
they enthroned Buhari. He behaved just like every other Southern leader whose voice become faded once he enjoys the crumbles that come from the president office. Whether he still harbour the plan should they look his way in 2023 is what I don't know. But he aught to know that the North will be smart to know that. Silence in the face obvious truth is to me stupid. It is the same character exhibited by his supporters. They all know Nigeria is not working but are fixed with 2023 event. Just nonsense to say the least.

We can continue to pretend as the country continue to go on a merry go round. Yesterday I just read about Northern Cyprus systematically exploiting Nigerians to build their country using Education and I just shook my head.

Dedetwo:
This is the junction where the statement accredited to IBB comes to play. It is nice to go to sleep when a Yari.ba peep adapts to his\her second nature, loudmouth.

Ojukwu fought a bloody and senseless war for about three years after which he ran away to Ivory Coast. He came back to Nigeria some years later and shamelessly contested for a seat in the senate and even the presidency of the country he fought to breakup. Deservedly, he lost both but the point is, he still contested for the president of one Nigeria. So, what’s the big deal in Tinubu’s statement. Is hypocrisy the second nature of you Igbos?

These are the characteristics of the average Nigerian politician.Greedy and wicked hypocrites!
