I think killing or capturing of pythons should be an art everyone must covet. Could you explain to us how your brother was able to achieve this feat? So interesting that just two of you killed this giant constrictor big enough to kill human

The Bombshell From Yinka Odumakin To Tinubu (A Must Read)!

Dear Chief Tinubu,

The backpage of your The Nation of Tuesday 12 March where one of your Rottweilers under the FORGED name “Segun Ibirogba” wrote “Odumakin’s anxiety over vanishing feeding-bottles” has un-paused the button on this serial.

I have always wondered why these intellectual almajiris around you always attack me under fake names.It is either they are afraid of me or they don’t believe in you to risk their names doing the dirty job for you .Well,we know many of them hold worst views about you than us but for the free money they have been accustomed to from a Robbin Hood.

The piece referenced was a rehash of same old silly lies and freshly minted ones.In keeping faith with my resolve that for every dart of lie you guys throw in my direction ,I will return 10 bombs of truth I make this response.And for every line I write,I can say like Fela Anikulapo-Kuti “Na true I wan talk again o,if I dey lie o,make Edumare punish me o”.

Since you guys made a failed attempt to impugn my integrity ,I have chosen to use this edition to place your life side-by-side mine on the scale of integrity so we can know if your hen can point at the boil in a hawk’s eye.I intend to show that were it not that Nigeria has become Ceaser’s palace where the leper holds the veil,nobody in your circle should move near that subject.

I am Yinka Odumakin and nobody can say he had known me under any identity in my life .I have led a straight life unlike you that people know under different identities depending on where they met you in your about 80 years on earth .Yes,80!

Those of us who are knowledgeable about you cant buy your 66 claim for so many reasons .The current governor of Osun is the son of your immediate senior sister from Iragbiji and he is 63 while you are claiming 66. Your first wife died in Lagos recently unannounced at 74 .

When the son he had for you died many moths earlier his age had to be doctored to fit into the lie that you live. And there is a photograph of yours at the palace of Soun Ogbomoso in 1974 when the current monarch was installed with a bottle of beer and packet of cigarette in your front. You mean you were 20 when you were drinking and smoking in a palace ?

There is no school I have attended in my life that my classmates would not come out in droves to say “yeah, we were there together!”. From St Augustine Primary School, Ondo to CAC Grammar School, Edunabon and Oduduwa College Ile -Ife down to Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile -Ife and University of Ghana.

At your end St John Primary School Aroloya you claimed may be created by your new governor in Lagos. The old boys of Government College Ibadan were planning a reception for you when someone asked which set you belonged to .There has been no answer to that till date and the reception was cancelled. The tales by moonlight on Chigago State University and University of Chiicago are all over the place.

My parents are alive in Osun and by God’s grace I will give them a befitting burial. I will not have to send emissaries to bury them since I have not abandoned “moomi” (that’s how we Oyo people in Osun call mummy) to be calling another woman “maami” in Lagos to fit a life of lie and greed. No Mama HID Awolowo would have told me that she knew all the children of “maami ” and that I was not one of them.

My parents are not rich but I am proud of them because it is from their black pot that my white palp has come out. I say proudly among my University mates today that they could not afford more than N60 per month for me throughout my University days .The story of grass to grace is a proud thing among the Yoruba. MKO Abiola was proud of the story that he ate egg for the first time in his life in the home of Simbiat Abiola’s parents.

With the modest means of my parents, they instilled so much values in me that there is no crime attached to my name in all my years on earth. Forging traveling passports had never appealed to me. Neither has my name been linked to a narcotic ring leading to inquiry and forfeiture of assets. All my life, my hands have provided for me. And they have provided for you too.

I recall when you returned from exile in 1998 and running for governor. You were not “Ezeego” then. You had only the Sunday Adigun house and all the four cars you used then belonged to Mr Ganiyu Solomon. There were a lot of printings being done for you by your friends at The News. I saw the price you were being offered and I told you my press could do it at 40%. I delivered and saved you 60%. I recall Mr Babafemi Ojodu complained openly that they could not do the price I offered you !

That should tell you and your attack dogs that I have always separated the cause I believe in from what I would eat unlike you who always mix the two. You pose as a June 12 hero today but Kola Abiola is alive to tell the story of what happened to MKO’s money as Bashorun is no longer alive. In 20 years, there is hardly any boundary between Lagos treasury and your private pockets. Your “O to ge” moment is coming some day and all the dirty deals will be out.

Like a rapist, you can tell your victims to shout “O to pe” for as long as stolen funds and drug money rule Lagos politics.

I have noticed that because you and your followers have no abiding principle and you are driven by only lust for money, you assume it is so for everybody. Your being glued to the lowest of all spirits (money) makes it difficult for you to make the right judgement about people thinking they are all about money. Was it that you didn’t have money when I told you in December 2006 that it was over between us politically? Have I ever looked in your direction ever? There are men who may not be able to give N10,000 to a cause but if they say they want to see me at 8AM I would be there at 7. Can you summon me with all your bullion vans?

I recall how you said to me in 2006 about Senator Tokunbo Afikuyomi and I quote you “Adiye ni Tokunbo, yin agbado fun a pada” (Tokunbo is a fowl, throw corns and it is U-turn). Has he not turned his back at you today? You don’t have “corns ” again? This was the man who was your fall guy when you made all the forgeries in 1999. He was among the team that went to bury your biological mother in Iragbiji when you could not show your face, has his exit not shown you there are men who place value on principle than money?

I have lived my political life on the basis of the fact that an adversary today can be an ally tomorrow and vice versa. I am not beholden to any person outside the core beliefs we share. One of the men I had an open disagreement with was President Obasanjo and when we reconciled it was an open thing. That differentiates me from you who walk both sides of the streets simultaneously. You were with NADECO and also in bed with Abacha through whom you forged friendship with the Chagourys who are your business partners till date.

The political buffoons around you would hold you out as an anti-third term person today but you know what happened between us on May 2, 2006. We had a meeting at Airport Hotel in Lagos where you were dictating the communique against third term unknown to participants you were at a meeting till wee hours of that morning to work third term in another way.

I was reading the communique to the press when you called me. I gave the phone to the late Rev Tunji Adebiyi but you told him you wanted to speak with me. We didn’t get to talk till late in the night. I had with me in the car as you spoke with me from VGC to Ikeja then President of Egbe Omo Yoruba in North America, Mr Odusanya. Let me quote you verbatim :

“I hope you have not released that communique. We need to manage this third term carefully. Obasanjo is a blind cat. If he causes problem now and they kill one Yoruba graduate in Kano and we kill 200 people selling onions in mile 12 it is not equal. I am therefore proposing that we have a win-win situation. Instead of outright third term we can have the confab recommendation of one six-year tenure starting with the incumbent having 2 extra years and so with we the governors. We can use the two years to empower people like you and handover to one of you. I have asked General Alani Akinrinade to come and I am going to meet Prof Soyinka to discuss it. I want you to think about it”

I told you as a matter of fact that the proposition was unreasonable and there was nothing for me to think about as I would prefer outright third term where we would have elections to automatic two years extension. But my eyes were opened to how unreliable you are that night. Here was a man dictating communique against third term in the morning having this conversation with me at night.

I made up my mind on you that night. The conversation I had with you minutes after Funso Williams was killed and the way you handled your your succession made me to severe political links with you within six months .

…More to come.

Portrait Of The Tiger Ambode Rode (Part 3) 

ON OCTOBER 23, 20188:09 AMIN CANDID NOTES13 COMMENTS 
By Yinka Odumakin 

MY first encounter with Akinwumi Ambode was at the Ikeja home of late General Adeyinka Adebayo the day after his transition.I was exchanging pleasantries with Otunba Niyi Adebayo when he walked in .As the governor offered his hand to greet me, a convoy screeched to a halt outside. Ambode To my consternation the governor dropped my hand and “pick am for race” muttering “Asiwaju is here ” and ran out like a kid whose father just arrived after a long absence from home . 

The second meeting with him was at the Bourdillon home of the tiger the day  I joined Chief Reuben Fasoranti,the Leader of Afenifere, late Sir Olaniwun Ajayi, Chief Ayo Adebanjo to visit Tinubu. Unknown to many of us then , Sir Olaniwun Ajayi was already in the departure lounge and was trying to fix the fixable before boarding and suggested at an Afenifere meeting that there should be a meeting with Tinubu to bring some harmony to Yoruba political establishment.The proposal was accepted. I reached out to Mr. Dele Alake who fixed the appointment .In fairness to Tinubu, he sent word back that he would come and visit the elders but Sir Ajayi insisted they should go and see him. Tinubu had Ambode, Alake and Prof. Bayo Williams on his side for the meeting making eight of us in the room. As the meeting proceeded Tinubu, looked in Ambode”s direction and said “Iwo,lo ba mi so fun Kabiyesi ki won mu suru”(You, go and tell Kabiyesi to exercise patience). Ambode got up and went to meet Olubadan in the sitting room like a schoolboy dispatched on an errand by his teacher. I couldn’t hide my disgust at such situation and a frown descended on my face. Tinubu must have noticed my look , he said: “If Kabiyesi saw that I sent a governor, the message will look serious”  by way of an explanation. 

The third encounter with the Governor was at the Church service for the late Dr. Alex Ekwueme in Anambra State. Ambode sat next to Tinubu in the church as the latter was being interviewed by a TV reporter. As I passed by where they sat ,he beckoned to greet and said “thank you” to me and looking over his shoulders as if Tinubu would give him a knock on the head if he saw him greeting me. He was appreciating me because I made a public statement around the time commending him for taking Lagos State into Oodua Investment and promising to invest in Agriculture in other South West States. From 1999 till when Ambode took that decision, Tinubu had always maintained that “gedegbe ni Eko wa”(Lagos stands alone). A godfather should look for no more an ideal captive than the character in the above narratives but not Tinubu who doesn’t take 99 but 100%. So,there was nothing Ambode could have done to survive as he had made up his mind no General Manager he put in office as Lagos Governor after Fashola will do a second term.

The day he appointed the current Governor was the very moment he started plotting his exit and Ambode made it very easy for him with his own aloofness which made him to carry on as a UAC Manager and not a politician . One major complaint by the feeders on power and mostly Tinubu hangers-on in Lagos misnamed political leaders is that Ambode does not pick their calls. When they go to Tinubu to complain that Ambode doesn’t pick their calls he would respond “He doesn’t pick my own too ,I call the ADC when I  am frustrated.” Alas, it was the godfather who told the godson to concentrate on his job and shun phone calls from everybody and that if he needs him he would call the ADC. Like a goat being led to the slab, Ambode carried on with the instruction that would lead to his political death . By the time Tinubu pulled the rug from under his feet, all the political dealers of Lagos came out with their own knives playing the role Tinubu designed for them from the beginning .He did not have the challenge of when he intended to stop Fashola in 2010 when critical voices spoke up for him. Among independent people who approached Tinubu in Fashola’s moment of trial were Gen. Alani Akinrinade and Dr.Amos Akingba. After a stormy session with Tinubu back then , he resorted to his crass material card by telling them he would need a house he donated to a Yoruba cause they were pursuing them  in the Opebi area of Lagos They told him he could take possession the following day.Tinubu realised he was stuck .

The only contact Ambode could possibly have with many of those who stood up for Fashola may just be reading about them in the newspapers! I have heard stories of Ambode saying nasty stuff about Tinubu behind him in spite of his dovish disposition before him. His moles around the governor were said to have even played such tapes to him.This brings home the truism of the Yoruba saying that the man whose vocation is severing heads from others’ necks dreads the cutlass dancing kilometres around his own neck. Pray, what did Tinubu not say about Senator Abraham Adesanya and his colleagues who were no taskmasters over him the way he constituted himself over Ambode ? I recall how Senator Adesanya called Tinubu , the late  Alhaja  Habibat Mogaji(Tinubu’s foster mum) and Chief Kafaru Tinubu shortly before the 2003 elections to his home in Apapa when his ears were full. Senator Adesanya looked straight into Tinubu’s eyes and started “Bola, God will not cover your shame if you lie to cover my shame today.” He asked Tinubu if it was true that he was on Level 16 in Alausa and he answered no. He also asked him to name the address of the house he bought for him in London and Tinubu said he didn’t buy any house for him. Papa Adeasnya said the only house he had in London was bought before Tinubu was born and wondered why he was spreading slander about him all over the place.Tinubu denied spreading evil reports about him adding “may be it is Dele Alake and co just looking for tales to spin.” Bisi Akande calls for restructuring Back to Ambode. He has enjoyed a momentary ride on the back of the tiger before ending in its belly. I have heard a lot of uniformed commentaries that he could have continued the ride if he had handled things differently. I dare say that those who hold such views do not understand the tiger he rode. 

Towards the end of his first term as governor, he impeached his first deputy, Senator Kofoworola Bucknor-Akerele. An Afenifere panel of Chief C.O Adebayo, Mr. Jimi Agbaje and my humble self were asked to look into the feud between them. After talking to both of them, our verdict was that they could no longer work together. It should have really been no deputy with a mind of his own  can work with Tinubu. He replaced her with Chief Femi Pedro. You would think Pedro dropped from the sky the day he introduced him to me in Bourdillon before he nominated him. He impeached him also before the end of his second tenure and replaced him with Chief  Abiodun Ogunleye who stayed for a very brief period to suffer impeachment. Let the Tiger makes Oluremi Tinubu governor, they will fall out! The last time I saw Sola Lawal standing behind Alhaji Adeoti, the Governorship candidate of ADP in Osun election was a sad reminder of how Tinubu’s exclusive, overbearing, high-handed politics scattered an assembly of the best and brightest Yoruba young men and women who converged at Adesanya’s feet in 1998 in different directions so the basest, vilest and strange children can take centre stage in Yoruba affairs. The resort to using the Speaker of Lagos House of Assembly to start issuing executive orders signals the imminent impeachment of Ambode as governor. Whichever way it goes, the no Ambode said that made Tinubu resort to his political wayward ways at the crudest has collided with the law of unintended consequences as something tells me loudly that Tinubu may need to dig two graves as he plans Ambode burial.The tiger has eaten what will not digest. I pause!

Portrait Of  The Tiger Ambode Rode (Part 2) 


IN 1999, the entire South West  was under the control of the Alliance for Democracy, AD. When we were approaching the 2003 elections, I told my boss, former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, to give me the authority to take over the South West from the AD for the party. He gave me the approval. My effort during that election resulted in our party taking over the states except  Lagos State. And the reason was that Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and I came a long way from the Social Democratic Party, SDP, and the PDM.  I felt I should leave Lagos for him. In fact, I could easily have taken over Lagos, but I did not. I have since regretted my decision; please, my sisters and brothers in the party, I want you to forgive me for taking Lagos out of that arrangement.“-Alahaji Atiku Abubakar in Lagos on 3rd September 2018. Until Atiku detonated the above bomb in Lagos recently, the lie Tinubu spinners had put out was that he became the “last man standing” in 2003 in the South-West because of some sagacity and that he broke ranks with Afenifere over the alliance with Obasanjo. But those of us who are aware  of what happened know that the monkey has no special skill beyond the fact that the trees are close to each other. 

Ambode The sacred truth is that the deal to have electoral pact with the PDP in 2003 was brokered by Tinubu who had planned to run as VP to Atiku in 2007 under the then ruling party. The discussion started during the convocation ceremony of  the University of Lagos in 2002 where Tinubu kept the company of President Olusegun Obasanjo. It was during the event  that he agreed to arrange a meeting with his colleagues-governors. The meeting held at Dodan Barracks in Lagos and the governors agreed to work on a pact to give the President the support he needed in the South West just as they advised him not to allow Local Government, LG, elections nationwide so it would not hurt his delegates at the PDP convention as his party would not win in the Southwest. The governors who had taken control of the AD as of this time merely came to inform  Afenifere of their decision. They reported all their discussions with the President  and the fact that they advised him not to conduct elections. Papa Adesanya like a General whose troops had moved in a direction decided not to follow another route. He decided to follow up on the briefing by negotiating terms for the pact which included free and fair election and restructuring of the polity. While the deal was in the making, Tinubu gathered through Atiku that the deal would cost the governors their seats and quickly bailed out but this bird did not tell the other birds that a stone was coming. That was how he remained the only surviving AD governor. 

The former governor of Oyo State, Alhaji Lam Adesina was not a happy man with Tinubu in the last days of his life over this and other issues. I recall when he came to meet the elders of Afenifere in Lagos late in 2003 and asked to leave early enough to be able to get back to Ibadan on time. Chief Ayo Adebanjo had told him to either be Tinubu’s guest for the night and  that would he say he did not have a house in Lagos. Alhaji Adesina  responded with a tinge of anger “God will not let me sleep in Tinubu’s house. I don’t have a land in Lagos not to talk of a house. Tinubu promised to give me a land but he kept asking me for passport photographs until I told him I was not going to the photographer again. This is somebody on whose behalf I asked the Principal of Government College Ibadan to keep all crucial files of the school in my office for three years. I have returned the files on the eve of my departure .” Immediately after indirectly sending his colleagues to political Siberia and weaning himself off the influence of Afenifere, Tinubu commenced his empire building project by sending protégés to the other South West states and Kwara for the 2007 governorship elections. Nearly all posted out were either his aides or recruits under his Action Congress, AC. His ambition had become very clear at this stage that it was a negation of collegiate leadership the Yoruba are known for that he was trying to replace with an Emperor reign. Realising what his project meant for the Yoruba on the long run, a group of Yoruba Patriots and Nationalists approached Chief Bisi Akande in 2010 that we needed an audience with Tinubu. 

A little about Chief Akande After the 2003 elections, we had erroneously thought that Chief Akande was placed to provide leadership in Yorubaland at some point given his performance in office and ideological clarity with a tinge of intellectual underpinning. He authored a book on restructuring with an understanding of our issues. I drove to his home in Ibadan regularly  and we travelled abroad together on a few occasions to meetings with Yorubas in diaspora. When we approached him to complain about the strangeness of Tinubu Leadership Academy to Yoruba values, he agreed to seek an appointment with him. He soon got the appointment and we agreed to meet in his house before proceeding to Bourdilon. We articulated all the issues and we moved. On our delegation were Hon.Wale Oshun, Mr. Jimi Agbaje, Mr. Tola Mobolurin, Prince Oye Oyewumi, Mr. Demola Oyinlola, Mr. Adedeji Zacch among others. On getting to Tinubu, we met Professors Segun Gbadegesin and Ropo Sekoni with him. It became a chatting session as we sat down. It was when Tinubu was planning the Ambode treatment for then Lagos Governor, Mr. Babatunde  Fasola whom he railed and railed against. He said he was not going to allow him a second term as he blocked all the drainages he made  for himself before leaving office with droplets now coming to him while Fashola’s own channels were flowing in torrents. He added that he had now seen the thief who can steal better than THE thief. I cut in at that stage to remind him that he told me in 2006 when he was going to foist Fasola on the party that he managed all his assets while he was in exile without a penny missing and he replied, “I was just marketing him then”. Prof. Sekoni pleaded with him to sheathe his sword and allow Fasola to run for a second term. He added that Tinubu should know that he is the elder in the dispute with the greatest responsibility to bring amicable resolution. Tinubu looked at Prof. and said he reminded him of the case of a widow who lost her husband and people were coming to commiserate with her over the tragic loss.

The first group to come were elderly and that after all the commiseration they ended by asking the lady to try and eat something as starving herself would not raise her dead husband. They took their leave after sometime. Then came her peers who also went through all the rituals of comfort. They prayed for the repose of the soul of her husband and ended on a note of plea that she should eat something in order not to injure her health. Tinubu threw the audience into laughter when he ended the story by saying that the widow asked her peers “What did you bring for me to set when you were coming ? ” After about two hours of chatting, I went to Chief Akande to remind him we had yet to get to what brought us to Tinubu and he asked me “What is that ?” I was shocked and he lost me forever that day. I got up and announced to Tinubu that we had a reason for coming and reeled out our articulated points. Mr. Mobolurin adumbrated the points. He cut in and flared up “I am not holding any meeting again. I cannot be spending my money for rebuilding Southwest and people will come here and insult me. All my mates have high rising buildings all over the place but this is the only house I have in Lagos because we are spending all the money for politics .” We left Tinubu that day and it was clear that what we were trying to build had crashed. I also knew that the Tinubu machinery had triumphed and would be there for a while. But I was also convinced it would not last forever as the foundation was not in sync with our ancient landmarks. 

Eventually, Tinubu who had vowed that Fashola would not do a second term  allowed him when he realised he was going to be demystified if he moved openly against him then because he did not prepare the full Ambode package for him. Fashola had been left to build influence within the party and in town though the  political structure was still essentially Tinubu’s. Tinubu and Fasola played cat and mouse relationship in the latter’s second term but the cracks were papered over. It was when Fashola’s successor was to come that the daggers were drawn again. Fashola had planned to have a successor which would have meant setting Tinubu’s “factory ” on fire. But the Emperor moved with all his might and checkmated him by handing Akinwumi Ambode the ticket. Tinubu had learnt from his mistakes with Fashola and vowed that whoever he  must make Governor in Lagos must not develop his own character and he must manipulate him well so that taking him out would not be a problem. That was why Ambode who had a frosty relationship with Fasola and a civil servant came handy as a cashier, not necessarily a Governor. I stated last week that Ambode did not appear a governor on the three occasions I met him in Tinubu’s company.That waits till the concluding part. Feedback Re:Portrait of the tiger Ambode rode YINKA this is a wonderful piece. You showed great presence of mind as a participant observer in the unfolding events in the turn of democracy in the late 90s and the beginning of this millennium. Your fecundity in chronicling the events that foist Tinubu on Lagosians for good or for bad is highly commendable.   Papa Adesanya died an unhappy man. He will be turning in his grave now with great angst because of the happenings in the progressives camp in Lagos represented by the present APC. Poor Ambode!

Portrait Of The Tiger Ambode Road (Part 1)!

By Yinka Odumakin 

LOUIS XIV was King of France for 72 years and 110 days  and became the most powerful French monarch who consolidated a system of absolute monarchical rule that endured until the French Revolution. At the peak of his maniac, he said: “L’Etat c’est  moi”(I am the state). Ambode I am not aware Asiwaju Bola Tinubu is given to so much reading to have come across Louis’ declaration but I once heard him making the same declaration as he got up from his seat and said “Eko fe lo sun”(Lagos wants to sleep). The embodiment of the current pathetic Lagos by the man who rode to power in 1999 largely on account of his association with NADECO abroad is an interesting study for some of us who are eyewitnesses to recent history. It’s all coming back to me now from 1998 in a rush. 

Dr. Bunmi Omoseyindemi and I had led a group from the National Conscience Party, NCP,  to join the Afenifere after the radical party we belonged to had taken a decision to boycott the 1999 transition programme without subjecting it to thorough debate. We were received at a rally in Oworonsoki  area of Lagos by Leaders of the group such as Chief Ayo Adebanjo and late Alhaji Ganiyu Dawodu. Chief Ayo Adebanjo had asked Omoseyindemi and I  to go purchase nomination forms for the House of Representatives election but we told him we did not want to appear as position seekers and would want to build the party first. He commended our spirit and asked us to meet Alhaji Dawodu to assist him in organisational efforts. That was how we became regulars at his Western House office where we worked round the clock with Mr. Aro Lambo. Alhaji Dawodu’s office became a place of voyage for the leading governorship aspirants  under the banner of Alliance for Democracy, AD. After interface with them all,we concluded we should support Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu on account of his role in NADECO abroad. On our first meeting with him at his residence on Sunday Adigun,  he introduced us to Rauf Aregbesola who was like the DG of the campaign. I recall how I put together the first jingle Tinubu had on TV which I composed from one of the popular songs  the struggle field which I had to work with Pat Nebo to record with Tinubu doing some voice over message as : “This na the governor we don dey wait o (2ce)  This na the governor we don dey wait Heeeeee Bola Tinubu(3ce) This na the governor we don dey wait”. I do not know if Alhaji Dawodu knew we were Tinubu-leaning as he donated us to the National leadership when panels were being put together to supervise gubernatorial primaries being conducted in December 1998 and we were posted to  lead the team to Ondo state. When we returned from Ondo, Lagos state was already scattered over dispute between the camps of Bola Tinubu and Funsho Williams. 

The AD  Chairman in Lagos, Alhaji Dawodu already submitted the name of Funso Williams to INEC as he won the contest if results of all 20 LGAs were added. But there was a lacuna. The guidelines used for the primaries stipulated that the electoral panel should cancel results anywhere violence takes place. And there were incidents of violence in four LGAs that were strongholds of Funso Williams and if they were cancelled Bola Tinubu was the winner. Unfortunately for Williams, Dawodu submitted his name to INEC  and disappeared. The Tinubu camp intensified protests and the Leaders of Afenifere looked into the matter. Their decision was that in accordance with the rules they made,Tinubu won the primary if the votes from the troubled areas were removed and directed the Acting Chairman of AD, Chief Ayo Adebanjo to write to INEC and withdraw Funso Williams’ name. It was this adherence to the rule that those who are not aware of what happened then use often to accuse Afenifere of imposing Tinubu on Lagos in 1999. It took six years after before I stumbled on the fact that the crises in those LGAs were contrived to deny Williams victory. Tinubu won the elections but with a plan from day one to weaken Afenifere so he can replace the collegiate leadership Yoruba are used to with a caliph order in Yoruba politics. His first deft move immediately he became candidate was to be the arrowhead of the group that stopped Chief Bola Ige from picking the AD Presidential flag for the 1999 elections at D’Rovans Hotel. But the moment elections were over, he moved to Ige’s corner when he started his rebellion against Afenifere. 

His strategy was to start filling the void once the schism in the group became unmanageable. Even when Ige was assassinated,he ensured that the empty coffin that was paraded all over Lagos as his remains was not allowed to stop at the   Afenifere Secretariat,a group he was Deputy Leader of till he died. I should not forget to mention the fact that the open split in AD was as result of the Dawodu-Tinubu feud in Lagos as it was the parallel congresses held by the two factions in Lagos that led to the AD holding parallel conventions in Abuja in 2000. It was that crisis patch Chief Adesanya was managing in the group till the 2003 elections.The group was able to put some temporary truce in place in all other five states for the elections except in Lagos. It was at the last minute that a deal was offered for Tinubu to return for second term and keep 60% of the remaining elective  posts and allow the Dawodu faction  fill the remaining 40%. A three – man committee made up of Chief R.Fasoranti, Gen. Alani Akinrinade and my humble self were sent to Lagos to implement the decision.I went to Tinubu before our sitting to persuade him not to disgrace Papa Adesanya around whom there were already loud whispers of indulging Tinubu as he truly loved him even when he disliked some of his ways. Tinubu told me he did not understand Arithmetic and that the proposal was undemocratic. When we eventually met the two factions at the Airport Hotel for a whole day, he came and bluntly refused to implement the decision. I remember this incident a few days back when he called the meeting of the so-called Governor Advisory Council to order a Governor it should be advising to withdraw from the gubernatorial primary of APC in Lagos because Akinwumi Ambode is a captive and not a free Governor like he was when Afeifere handed him the ticket in 1999. 

I have met Ambode only on three occasions and all in the presence of Tinubu and the indignities he went through  all made me pray to God not to be that type of governor in my life. I will narrate them next week. Talking of the love Papa Adesanya had for Tinubu, I would just give one instance. Months into Tinubu’s  tenure. a scandal broke out around him that he did not attended any of the schools he listed in his resume: from St John’s Primary School, Aroloya in Lagos through Government College, Ibadan and University of Chicago. The scandal broke out shortly after then Speaker of House of Representatives, Salisu Buhari had perjured by submitting a fake certificate from University of Toronto in Canada and was forced to step down. The media was celebrating the scandal and just a sentence from Afenifere against Tinubu then would have done him in. I recall vividly being in the office of Senator Adesanya with the late Rev. Tunji Adebiyi when an old man with all grey hair and beards dressed in immaculate white dress with white shoes walked into his office and we had to excuse them. When he left, we went back to meet the Leader and he was in a pensive mood. He told us what the old man told him: “Abraham,you have to disown this boy (Tinubu) now” and that he said to the oldie that “a person who builds a wall does not pull it down.” He said the man got up to leave and said: “You will regret not doing so”. The scene played in my mind in the last inactive days of Senator Adesanya as the last major outing he had before he went down was over Tinubu. Afenifere  had decided to meet all former AD governors who lost in the 2003 elections and Tinubu who survived the Tsunami largely on account of his close relationship with  Atiku. We held meetings with his five former colleagues but Tinubu refused the invitation until January 2, 2004 when Senator Adesanya called me that Senator Ayo Fasanmi had persuaded Tinubu to come for the meeting on the 4th at his Apapa residence. I informed all that were supposed to be at the meeting. On the appointed day, only Senators Adesanya, Fasanmi, Tinubu and I were in Apapa. 

Tinubu came and Pa Adesanya told him all the grievances against him. He responded to the effect that he accepted Adesanya as his father and Leader but he would not have anything to do with his colleagues again. Papa told him that saying he would not relate with his colleagues amounted to repudiating his leadership. As we rounded off the meeting Sir Olaniwun Ajayi called Pa Adesanya that they were waiting for him at the Afenifere Secretariat for the meeting scheduled with Tinubu. He asked if I did not tell them that the meeting would hold in his house to which he responded that all his colleagues were received at the secretariat. As Papa could not get his driver, he asked me to drive him to Jibowu to meet his colleagues. When we arrived there, it was the late Chief Wumi Adegbonmire who fired the first salvo that they were sorely disappointed that Papa would indulge Tinubu once again by moving his own meeting to his house and meeting him in their absence. Sir Olaniwun Ajayi asked me to excuse the meeting at a point with Senator Adesanya telling me to wait for him.I said I knew he had no way of getting home without me. When they were through with the meeting, I joined him in his office and I saw tears dropped off his eyes as he said to me: “Wo bi Tinubu se so mi di alaimose bayi “(see how Tinubu has turned me to somebody who does not know his left from his right). I drove him back from Jibowu to Apapa and we did not utter a word. He suffered stroke a few days later from which he did not recover  till he died. Whenever I reflect on his last days, I always remember the admonition of the Wise Old One:”Disown this boy now or you will regret it”. ….To be continued .

Please is this open letter or breeze dey blow fowl nyash?
According to the OP, he say this one na bombshell. So the more we dey expect go be wetin na?

That one go be "kamikaze"

I am Yinka Odumakin and nobody can say he had known me under any identity in my life .I have led a straight life unlike you that people know under different identities depending on where they met you in your about 80 years on earth .Yes,80!

Those of us who are knowledgeable about you cant buy your 66 claim for so many reasons .The current governor of Osun is the son of your immediate senior sister from Iragbiji and he is 63 while you are claiming 66. Your first wife died in Lagos recently unannounced at 74

This got me thinking hard that there could be some element of truth in this judging from Tinubu's physical look

The Bombshell From Yinka Odumakin To Tinubu (A Must Read)!

Dear Chief Tinubu,

The backpage of your The Nation of Tuesday 12 March where one of your Rottweilers under the FORGED name “Segun Ibirogba” wrote “Odumakin’s anxiety over vanishing feeding-bottles” has un-paused the button on this serial.

I have always wondered why these intellectual almajiris around you always attack me under fake names.It is either they are afraid of me or they don’t believe in you to risk their names doing the dirty job for you .Well,we know many of them hold worst views about you than us but for the free money they have been accustomed to from a Robbin Hood.

The piece referenced was a rehash of same old silly lies and freshly minted ones.In keeping faith with my resolve that for every dart of lie you guys throw in my direction ,I will return 10 bombs of truth I make this response.And for every line I write,I can say like Fela Anikulapo-Kuti “Na true I wan talk again o,if I dey lie o,make Edumare punish me o”.

Since you guys made a failed attempt to impugn my integrity ,I have chosen to use this edition to place your life side-by-side mine on the scale of integrity so we can know if your hen can point at the boil in a hawk’s eye.I intend to show that were it not that Nigeria has become Ceaser’s palace where the leper holds the veil,nobody in your circle should move near that subject.

I am Yinka Odumakin and nobody can say he had known me under any identity in my life .I have led a straight life unlike you that people know under different identities depending on where they met you in your about 80 years on earth .Yes,80!

Those of us who are knowledgeable about you cant buy your 66 claim for so many reasons .The current governor of Osun is the son of your immediate senior sister from Iragbiji and he is 63 while you are claiming 66. Your first wife died in Lagos recently unannounced at 74 .

When the son he had for you died many moths earlier his age had to be doctored to fit into the lie that you live. And there is a photograph of yours at the palace of Soun Ogbomoso in 1974 when the current monarch was installed with a bottle of beer and packet of cigarette in your front. You mean you were 20 when you were drinking and smoking in a palace ?

There is no school I have attended in my life that my classmates would not come out in droves to say “yeah, we were there together!”. From St Augustine Primary School, Ondo to CAC Grammar School, Edunabon and Oduduwa College Ile -Ife down to Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile -Ife and University of Ghana.

At your end St John Primary School Aroloya you claimed may be created by your new governor in Lagos. The old boys of Government College Ibadan were planning a reception for you when someone asked which set you belonged to .There has been no answer to that till date and the reception was cancelled. The tales by moonlight on Chigago State University and University of Chiicago are all over the place.

My parents are alive in Osun and by God’s grace I will give them a befitting burial. I will not have to send emissaries to bury them since I have not abandoned “moomi” (that’s how we Oyo people in Osun call mummy) to be calling another woman “maami” in Lagos to fit a life of lie and greed. No Mama HID Awolowo would have told me that she knew all the children of “maami ” and that I was not one of them.

My parents are not rich but I am proud of them because it is from their black pot that my white palp has come out. I say proudly among my University mates today that they could not afford more than N60 per month for me throughout my University days .The story of grass to grace is a proud thing among the Yoruba. MKO Abiola was proud of the story that he ate egg for the first time in his life in the home of Simbiat Abiola’s parents.

With the modest means of my parents, they instilled so much values in me that there is no crime attached to my name in all my years on earth. Forging traveling passports had never appealed to me. Neither has my name been linked to a narcotic ring leading to inquiry and forfeiture of assets. All my life, my hands have provided for me. And they have provided for you too.

I recall when you returned from exile in 1998 and running for governor. You were not “Ezeego” then. You had only the Sunday Adigun house and all the four cars you used then belonged to Mr Ganiyu Solomon. There were a lot of printings being done for you by your friends at The News. I saw the price you were being offered and I told you my press could do it at 40%. I delivered and saved you 60%. I recall Mr Babafemi Ojodu complained openly that they could not do the price I offered you !

That should tell you and your attack dogs that I have always separated the cause I believe in from what I would eat unlike you who always mix the two. You pose as a June 12 hero today but Kola Abiola is alive to tell the story of what happened to MKO’s money as Bashorun is no longer alive. In 20 years, there is hardly any boundary between Lagos treasury and your private pockets. Your “O to ge” moment is coming some day and all the dirty deals will be out.

Like a rapist, you can tell your victims to shout “O to pe” for as long as stolen funds and drug money rule Lagos politics.

I have noticed that because you and your followers have no abiding principle and you are driven by only lust for money, you assume it is so for everybody. Your being glued to the lowest of all spirits (money) makes it difficult for you to make the right judgement about people thinking they are all about money. Was it that you didn’t have money when I told you in December 2006 that it was over between us politically? Have I ever looked in your direction ever? There are men who may not be able to give N10,000 to a cause but if they say they want to see me at 8AM I would be there at 7. Can you summon me with all your bullion vans?

I recall how you said to me in 2006 about Senator Tokunbo Afikuyomi and I quote you “Adiye ni Tokunbo, yin agbado fun a pada” (Tokunbo is a fowl, throw corns and it is U-turn). Has he not turned his back at you today? You don’t have “corns ” again? This was the man who was your fall guy when you made all the forgeries in 1999. He was among the team that went to bury your biological mother in Iragbiji when you could not show your face, has his exit not shown you there are men who place value on principle than money?

I have lived my political life on the basis of the fact that an adversary today can be an ally tomorrow and vice versa. I am not beholden to any person outside the core beliefs we share. One of the men I had an open disagreement with was President Obasanjo and when we reconciled it was an open thing. That differentiates me from you who walk both sides of the streets simultaneously. You were with NADECO and also in bed with Abacha through whom you forged friendship with the Chagourys who are your business partners till date.

The political buffoons around you would hold you out as an anti-third term person today but you know what happened between us on May 2, 2006. We had a meeting at Airport Hotel in Lagos where you were dictating the communique against third term unknown to participants you were at a meeting till wee hours of that morning to work third term in another way.

I was reading the communique to the press when you called me. I gave the phone to the late Rev Tunji Adebiyi but you told him you wanted to speak with me. We didn’t get to talk till late in the night. I had with me in the car as you spoke with me from VGC to Ikeja then President of Egbe Omo Yoruba in North America, Mr Odusanya. Let me quote you verbatim :

“I hope you have not released that communique. We need to manage this third term carefully. Obasanjo is a blind cat. If he causes problem now and they kill one Yoruba graduate in Kano and we kill 200 people selling onions in mile 12 it is not equal. I am therefore proposing that we have a win-win situation. Instead of outright third term we can have the confab recommendation of one six-year tenure starting with the incumbent having 2 extra years and so with we the governors. We can use the two years to empower people like you and handover to one of you. I have asked General Alani Akinrinade to come and I am going to meet Prof Soyinka to discuss it. I want you to think about it”

I told you as a matter of fact that the proposition was unreasonable and there was nothing for me to think about as I would prefer outright third term where we would have elections to automatic two years extension. But my eyes were opened to how unreliable you are that night. Here was a man dictating communique against third term in the morning having this conversation with me at night.

I made up my mind on you that night. The conversation I had with you minutes after Funso Williams was killed and the way you handled your your succession made me to severe political links with you within six months .

…More to come.

We are waiting, we knew all along who won but it's worth the drama all along. PDP is the party, Adeleke a.k.a Ajobiewe is the man!

SenseiVoyles:
It’s 17 and PDP won in all. And all the announced 21 constituencies. INEC is sticking with the originals based on polling unit results not the sham announced by the APC and their military cohorts

My brother don't bother to explain to anyone here we are waiting for that bastard called Amaechi to tamper with PDP's victories in all the LG in Rivers State

As yoh can clearly see the results of that senatorial zone as declared by INEC is in the article. Two INEC officials also agreed that there was an error in the decalration.

But then again, you knew all these before now.

Hypocrite!!!

Comrade I must doff my coloured hat of respect to your brilliant submissions so far you have been a contributor here however I want to beg you sir that you desist from engaging that clownish senator mumu or whatever he is because he can infect you with more iberiberirism kindly ignore the irritating partisan empty dude. He is not for good governance and justice he is just a bloody hypocritical APC clown who always try to appear he knows politics. I have never seen a loser like the guy. Meanwhile have you seen the magomago from Kaduna? HellRufian will shed hot tears. Walahi even my goat can spot the rigging in Kaduna. HellRufian was beaten black and blue in Kaduna. More drama ahead

This one is still dreaming you better port now before them slam you for prison. Mumu

Sacrificing Good Governance On The Altar Of Party Politics - The Nigerian Story!

Is this how we all as stakeholders will be watching as vibrant youths while these "old forces" burn this country to the ground and the unwary and wayward few amidst us take the back bench in the scheme of things cheer leading these corrupt and mendacious old lots milk us dry and trample on the freedom some people sweated water and blood to give us as a Nation? I have never in my entire life seen a country coming to these shameful state and yet you see youths under the spell of demonic influence to either swore to an oath of silence or celebrate mediocrity just because their party or candidate held sway at the centre and I ask, are we now to slaughter "Good Governance" on the "Altar of Party Politics" and expect the entire citizenry to be liberated from poverty, unfriendly government policies, moribund infrastructures, lack of security, systemic collapse, gross corruption, waning agricultural sector, unproductive oil and gas sector, ineffective educational sector, brutality against opposition and opposing voices, mindless bloodletting that are government-sponsored, muzzled press, caged judicial system, an all powerful executive arm, epileptic power supply, low Foreign Direct Investments output, depleting natural resources, huge brain drain of the best among the citizenry, lack of love and utmost patriotism for country, leaders acting as demigods, state of lawlessness across the land, compromised electoral reforms, favouritism and nepotism? 

No Nation on earth can grow let alone develop if all these indicated factors are bedevilling the economic atmosphere of such a country and this is the exact picture of Nigeria as we speak. Are we cursed as a people and accursed as a nation never to learn from our past mistakes and not only repeating them but also doing it worse than it was done years back? Why would a leader of a Nation who could not fulfil ordinary 10% of what he promised while campaigning years back yet want to still perpetuate himself into power against all indicators showing he is no longer wanted? Why must innocent lives be wasted just because someone who don't care wants to come back into power? Why are we ignorantly supporting evil and impunity in the name of party politics? Are we not aware that Rwanda, Kenya, Ethiopia, Ghana, Cote d'ivoire are far behind us in economic developments way back mid 60s but have since left us behind in the area of power supply? What exactly is the problem with the youths of this Nation when decisions being taken by these wicked leaders have negative far-reaching effects on our future and generations unborn after we all would have gone? If we must get it right now, it must start from an electoral reforms that work for all where our "votes will actually count" and demonstrate the general wish of the people. Our constitution needs a total overhaul, we need a new system of government to replace this wasteful Presidential System that makes a beast out of an autocratic President pretending to be a democrat. Government positions and political appointments must be made unattractive by reducing the many perks attached to that office where every Tom, Dick and Harry want to take a bite forcefully at the National Cake and turn resources at their disposal as their personal till. I am afraid, restructuring that can put hope in the life and future of an average Nigerian is about to be buried except we do something fast by involving international Courts, International Think-Tank Groups, International Pressure Groups and Foreign Countries through petitions so that our leaders can be called to order because as it stands, Nigeria is heading for the rocks under Buhari except something urgent is done now, Abacha's time may be a child's play. Enough said to the wise only!

@Ratello!

bishopkay:
See this idiot propanding a palliative for illegality yet you fools come out to say buhari has integrity and you support him because he is fighting corruption.

It will never be well with you senseless conscienceless supporters because your kind are the problem we have in this country. You'd support evil just because it favors your party. No single ounce of Intergrity or honour in y'all

My brother the curses you placed on these worthless ones shall come to pass in their lives and beyond in Jesus Name. Imagine what these demonic and useless ones are supporting. They know the party, APC, is a demonic occultic group, they know Buhari has come to steal, kill and destroy and they also know he has no single integrity yet like accursed souls that will continue to see evil all their lives still want this government to continue just because it is their party. Are we going to sacrifice "Good Governance" on the Altar of APC now? Once again, God bless you for placing curses on these damn souls. Nigeria deserved to be called a Zoo indeed.

May Buhari and his group of demonic cronies not witness a new Nigeria that will start unfolding in this new year.

You mean leading on Sahara reporters? some of you folks are too diabolical

HOW THE 2019 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IN NIGERIA WAS MASSIVELY RIGGED.
Femi Aribisala.

“You will know the truth and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:32).

In the 2015 presidential election, Muhammadu Buhari of the APC was awarded 15,424,921 votes by Attahiru Jega’s INEC; while Goodluck Jonathan of the PDP was awarded 12,853,162 votes.

In that election, Buhari presided like a colossus over the North, which was stoked up to insist on a Northern presidency. Bola Tinubu presided over the South-west, in coalition with Buhari; while President Goodluck Jonathan prevailed in the South-south as its native-son.

Suppression of South-eastern votes

However, the South-eastern states were regarded as orphans, they had no real godfather. As a result, APC succeeded essentially through INEC suppression of the votes of the South-east; and the exaggeration of the votes of the North; especially the North-west. INEC ensured that, far more disproportionately relative to other geopolitical zones, millions of South-East voters disappeared between 2011 and 2015.

INEC registered only 7.6 million voters from the entire South-east for the 2015 election, and only 5.6 million PVCs were reported as collected. But in Buhari’s North-west, there was an incredible figure of 17.6 million voter-registrations and 15.1 million PVCs were reported as collected.

While in the South-west, there were 4.2 million votes in 2015, relative to 4.6 million in 2011 (more or less the same number): in the South-east, there were only 2.6 million votes in 2015, relative to 5 million in 2011; a drastic drop of 2.4 million votes. That drop was virtually the APC margin of victory in 2015. Buhari defeated Jonathan with a plurality of 2,571,759 votes.

While Kano, Katsina, Kaduna, Jigawa and Bauchi posted humongous figures in 2015; Imo, Anambra and Abia posted disappointing figures. While the card-readers failed in many parts of the South-east, suggestive they were programmed to fail; they worked in most parts of the North. In places like Lagos and Kano, many non-indigenes, especially the Igbo, were not even given their PVCs and so could not vote.

APC master-plan

Once Buhari was elected, APC started preparing the grounds for the manipulation of the 2019 presidential election. During the congratulatory visit of a delegation from Benue, the newly-elected president said jokingly: “I beg Senator Akume and the governor-elect not to make my 2019 attempt too difficult.” The plans hatched included releasing trumped-up EFCC anti-corruption dogs against possible PDP 2019 presidential hopefuls, such as Sule Lamido of Jigawa.

However, the heart of the APC master-plan required the party to refocus its machinations from the South-east to the new orphan; the South-south, which remained a PDP stronghold. Otega Emerhor, APC governorship candidate in Delta State, spoke the mind of the party during a congratulatory visit to newly-elected Buhari in Aso Rock. He told the president:

“As you are aware, Delta State, along with Akwa Ibom and Rivers, are rich in oil resources and PDP is determined to hold on to these states at all cost to utilize the huge revenue base of these states to re-launch itself to national reckoning. It is, therefore, strategic for APC and your administration to pay particular attention and to assist us put in place modalities to break the stronghold of PDP in Delta and the other states.”

APC went ahead to execute this master-plan with a vengeance. The party challenged the outcome of the 2015 elections in the South-south in the courts. It then embarked on an onslaught of intimidating attacks on the judiciary to make it fall in line with its agenda.

Using the over-bearing power of the presidency, some South-south tribunal chairmen were summarily dismissed, replaced with more malleable choices. Some cases were even transferred to APC’s presidential stronghold in Abuja on spurious grounds. In the process, APC secured the cancellation of the elections in Rivers, Abia and Akwa Ibom. The appeal courts required them to be re-taken.

Supreme Court firewall

However, APC met a firewall in the Supreme Court. The apex court overturned the doctored verdicts of the appeal courts in Rivers, Abia and Akwa Ibom, restoring the mandate of their PDP governors. As a result, the “Supremes” immediately became public enemy number one of Buhari and the APC, who were incensed by the verdicts.

President Buhari complained that the Nigerian judiciary is his major “headache” in the fight against corruption. There was nothing wrong with the judiciary when it ruled in favour of the APC in Yobe, Ogun, Lagos and Benue. But when it ruled against the APC in Rivers, Abia and Akwa Ibom, something became fundamentally wrong with it.

It is not surprising, therefore that, on the eve of the 2019 presidential election, and in an act of outright constitutional illegality and rascality, Buhari suspended the chief justice of Nigeria, Walter Onnoghen; a South-south man from Cross River, and replaced him with Justice Tanko Mohammed; a Northerner from Bauchi.

So doing, the president laid the foundation for more successful future judicial verdicts for the APC; in the expectation that the results of the 2019 presidential election would end up in the courts and might be appealed all the way to the Supreme Court.

Suppression of South-South votes

The next bus-stop for the APC was the outright suppression of South-south votes especially, as well as the votes in other areas of PDP strength in the 2019 presidential election.

Bombs went off in PDP-controlled areas, destroying election materials. Bullion vans appeared on the eve of the election in Lagos, carrying money for dubious purposes. Igbo Lagosians were threatened with fire and fury if they dared come out to vote. Thugs were unleashed on areas of PDP strength to cart off ballot boxes and disrupt the vote. Over 30 people were killed in election-related violence, mostly orchestrated by APC supporters.

Take a close look at the result in the South-south. In 2015, the PDP stronghold of Rivers State shared a total of 1,556,313 votes between the PDP and the APC, giving the PDP the lion share of 1,487,075 votes. In 2019, this was suppressed to 624,681, a decrease of 931,632 votes. Out of this, PDP only obtained 473,971 votes; making a total decrease of 1,013,104 votes between 2015 and 2019.

In 2015, the PDP stronghold of Delta shared a total of 1,260,315 votes between the PDP and the APC. But by 2019, this had been suppressed to 815,360; a decrease of 444,955 votes. In 2015, PDP secured a whopping 1,211,405 votes from Delta. But by 2019, this had been suppressed to 594,068; a decrease of 617,337 votes between 2015 and 2019.

With Obi on the PDP vice-presidential ticket, there was also APC assault on Igbo votes, which were expected to be overwhelmingly in favour of the PDP. As observed, Igbo votes had been depressed by 2.4 million in 2015. Now with an Igbo son on the PDP ticket, surely more Igbos would come out to vote in 2019 than did in 2015. But no! Igbo votes were depressed even more.

In 2015, 567,160 votes came from Enugu. But in 2019, this shrank to 409,976. In 2015, 381,697 votes came from Abia. But in 2019, this shrank to 304,756. In 2015, 678,688 votes came from Anambra. But this shrank to 558,036 in 2019. In 2015, 692,438 votes came from Imo. But this shrank to 475,386 in 2019. The only exception was Ebonyi, but the exception was insignificant. In 2015, 343,171 votes came from Ebonyi. But in 2019, this increased marginally to 349,299; an increase of only 6,128 votes.

In effect, the Igbo states of the South-east that had lost 2.4 million votes between 2011 and 2015, lost another 565,701 votes between 2015 and 2019. Kaduna alone, with 1,643,057, had more votes than the combined Igbo votes of Abia, Ebonyi, Enugu and Anambra states; all with only 1,622,067 votes. At this rate of continuing decrease, Igbo votes are now virtually redundant and might soon disappear completely in a few years down the road.

Agenda of Northern supremacy

While Southern areas of PDP strength were experiencing voter-suppression, Northern areas of APC strength were increasing in voter-strength, even against all possible odds. Where APC won, it won largely with inflated margins. Where PDP won, it won with narrow deflated margins. PDP’s Atiku could only prevail in his home-state of Adamawa by a flimsy 32,188 votes. But Buhari won in his home-state of Katsina by a whopping 924,077 votes.

As a result, a president who presided over Nigeria becoming the poverty-capital of the world with some 90 million people now hungry-poor, ended up with an implausibly increased majority on election day. In 2015, Buhari won by 2,571,759 votes; but in 2019 he increased this to 3,928,869 votes. Even those areas ravaged by the scourge of Fulani herdsmen were apparently well-pleased with his government’s neglect, if we are to believe INEC’s bogus election results.

On election day, Boko Haram bombs were exploding in Maiduguri. But this did not prevent Borno residents from providing the largest voter-increase of all in 2019. In 2015, Borno provided 499,183 votes to all PDP and APC candidates combined. But now in 2019, it provided 908,284 votes; an incredible increase of 409,101 votes. 92% of those votes (836,496) went to Buhari, in spite of his failure to tame Boko Haram as he had promised to do in 2015.

Just think about it. While war-ravaged Borno was posting this massive voter-increase, votes in cosmopolitan Lagos, a city of over 20 million people, were depressed by the flagrant exclusion of PDP votes, especially in the Igbo-populated areas. As a result, votes in Lagos shrank between 2015 and 2019 by 395,947 votes; virtually the same figure as Borno’s fictitious increase. In 2015, Lagos posted 1,424,787 votes. But in 2019, Lagos shrank to only 1,028,840 votes.

In 2019, Lagos mega-city was not first, second or third in national vote-size. It could only manage fourth, behind the new Northern juggernauts of Kano, Kaduna and Katsina; all of them APC strongholds posting 50% or more votes than Lagos. Of the 10 highest-voting states nationwide in 2019, only Lagos comes from the South: all the other 9 are from the North. Only one (Plateau) was awarded to the PDP.

In 2015, the spread between North and South was suspicious. The North provided 16,227,005 votes to the South’s 12,051,078 votes; a difference of 4,175,927 votes. But now in 2019 the spread has grown to alarming proportions. By the time the total votes were tabulated, and with 13 million votes needed to win, the North had provided a fictitious 17,259,624 votes. The South was left with 9,195, 201 votes; making a difference of 8,064,423 between North and South.

That is virtually double the difference in the 2015 figure. You begin to wonder if Southerners like Bola Tinubu who are complicit in the APC agenda are too naïve to see this ominous writing on the wall. It means the North no longer needs Southern votes in order to prevail in future presidential elections.

Between 2015 and 2019, Northern votes among the two main APC/PDP contenders increased by 1,032,619 votes; while Southern votes decreased by 2,854,977 votes. This gave the North an advantageous margin of 3,887,596 votes.

It is not a coincidence that Buhari won by virtually the same margin: 3,928,869 votes.

How APC rigged presidential election, by Galadima

Atiku’ll floor Buhari in court – Galadima

Leader of the defunct Reformed All Progressives Congress (RAPC), Alhaji Buba Galadima, in this interview with ONWUKA NZESHI, warns that the governorship and state Houses of Assembly elections slated for Saturday would be worse than what Nigerians witnessed during the presidential and National Assembly elections because of the desperation of the All Progressives Congress (APC)

There have been series of complaints from different quarters since the results of the presidential and National Assembly elections were announced. Since you started complaining even before the results were released, what exactly is your grouse?

Well, the most painful thing is that Nigerians are gullible people and most of us don’t see beyond our nose. If we do, we could have long time, realised that this election was never going to be free, fair, transparent or credible.

Why do you think it was never meant to be a free and fair election?

For two years, there was brick bat between the National Assembly and the Presidency over the Electoral Act and eventually, the Presidency pushed the National Assembly into a tight corner. He refused to sign the Electoral Act Amendment Bill at a time that it will be difficult for the National Assembly to gather the two thirds majority to override his veto. From there, Nigerians should have known that the President does not intent to conduct a free, fair, transparent or credible election.

Why do you think the proposed amendments to the Electoral Act were so central to the 2019 election?

This Electoral Act was developed by four groups namely, the Civil Society, the National Assembly, the Executive represented by the Attorney General of the Federation and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). These four groups set down to develop this Electoral Act based on the experiences of the last 40 years, including court judgments on our elections. So every loophole that negates the freedom of choice was addressed in the Electoral Act and the President felt threatened because he felt that if he signs that Electoral Act, it is like signing his death warrant.

But indeed, it shows that human beings have a short memory. It was we and me in particular that has fought for the development of the Electoral Act and the adoption of the Smart Card Reader which I under-studied in Ghana and persuaded certain people to persuade the former Chairman of INEC, Prof. Attahiru Jega adopt it in 2015. It was the same Smart Card Readers, apart from God, that helped Buhari to become the President of Nigeria. President Buhari did promise times without number, that if he becomes President, because if his past experiences in the hands of the other governments, that he will bring about electoral reforms that will guarantee one man, one vote. Suddenly the man came into power and got intoxicated by power and he reneged on that promise he made to Nigerians.

Apart from the refusal to sign the Electoral Act, what other red flag did you notice before the Presidential Election?

You have seen how he tried all he could in life to remove both the Speaker and the President of the Senate who he did not believe were working in his best interest because they were questioning some of the excesses of the government through the instrumentality of the oversight functions of the National Assembly. When this failed, he now turned his searchlight on the judiciary because they knew that they were not going to allow a free and fair election. But if they did not allow a free, fair and transparent election the only institution that could checkmate them is the judiciary.

Then he looked at the head of that institution in the person of Justice Walter Onnoghen and just decided to remove him for whatever reasons best known to him. If Onnoghen abused the law and the Constitution, he has been there for about three years. What stopped him from removing him all these while? Why did he have to wait until a very inappropriate time? What I saw was that he knows Onnoghen personally; he was one of the Justices of the Supreme Court that gave Buhari judgement during the 2007 elections. There was nothing that the government of the day did not do to compromise Onnoghen but he refused to do their bidding.

Therefore, he (Buhari) felt that if he compromised the elections and the case goes before the Supreme Court, Onnoghen may nullify the election. This is Onnoghen’s offence and it amounts to what one would call ingratitude because this was the man that brought his Buhari’s case to international focus and you treated him that way. It was Justice Onnoghen, Justice George Oguntade and Justice Aloma Muktar; three Justices of the Supreme Court that have judgement in favour of General Buhari during the 2007 Presidential Election. Do you think, God is not watching? God will definitely vindicate the just.

Beyond the removal of Onnoghen, was there any other indication that Nigeria was heading for a compromised election?

Yes. Another thing happened but you people in the media didn’t quite follow the trend. When we spoke about it, some people thought that we were just blowing hot air. They said we were just ranting because we did not get appointments. The man ordered for Python Dance across the 36 states of country and Abuja. He said the soldiers will do military drills one month before the General Election and one month after the election. What necessitated Python Dance? Nigerians have forgotten about all these.

This is the military that cannot handle Boko Haram. This is the military that cannot stop insurgency and kidnapping in Zamfara State and Birnin Gwari, Kaduna State. This is the same military that cannot stop farmers/herders clashes in Plateau, Nasarawa, Benue states.

Now they are brought to do electoral duties. Suddenly the elections came and the man designed something to deceive the world. He announced that whoever steals ballot box during the election should be shot. I said on a programme on one of the television stations that that order was meant for the opposition because they will never shoot any APC man.

Is it true that the government ordered the banks to freeze the accounts of opposition figures?

The government called bank Managing Directors and asked them to block the accounts of all opposition people including my very self. They blocked my account up till now.

You mean that blocked all your accounts?

I have only one account in life. What are my doing with several accounts? I have one account and it is a local account

Why would they block people’s accounts?

They blocked it so that I cannot have access to it but I have only Two Hundred Thousand Naira there. They blocked every account belonging to key opposition figures. They called the banks to do it. You know Tunde Ayeni, former Chairman of Skye Bank? He was picked up and up till now he has neither been released nor charged to court. Abubakar Atiku’s in-law (Babalele Abdullahi) was picked up and detained, no news. One man, a Bureau De Change operator in Lagos whom they are accusing of changing money for Atiku was also picked.

You also know how Atiku’s private jet was vandalised when he came back from Dubai because they thought he must have brought a lot of money.

But look at them, they broke into the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and were ferrying money to every nook and cranny to buy votes. Every polling booth in the North, particularly in Katsina, Kaduna, Kano, Jigawa and Bauchi was flooded with money. Every polling booth, they budgeted N2. 5million.Where did they get the money? After all the party has never done a fundraising for this but you have seen how planes were carrying large amounts of money that the planes cannot take off. You have seen how a Boeing 737 delivered bullion vans loaded with money from Abuja to Lagos and other cities of this country.

All these ones, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) was blind to them because they are public money that were being distributed by government. Of course, you also know the Trader Moni and the Anchor Borrower Fund that they said 12 million farmers have donated N10,000 each to President Buhari’s campaign fund. You and I know that this is false. Where did the 12 million farmers meet to take that decision? So if Nigerians are not gullible people, they could have understood long ago that the 2019 General Election was not going to be free, fair and credible

The main opposition party, PDP raised issues about discrepancies in the distribution of electoral materials. What exactly happened in this area?

All the states of the Federation were given 130 per cent of their total requirement of electoral materials. So, they distributed 130 per cent to the Local Government Areas according to law and keep the remaining 30 per cent. When they Central Bank finishes the distribution, they call back the APC and give them the remaining 30 per cent including Form EC8E which is the result sheets for them to go and fill at home. They use the Police and soldiers to kidnap the people holding the original result sheet and force them to submit the forged results. All these have happened in the full glare of everybody but the international community cannot understand this.

What do you think you party should have done before or during the election to avert these manipulations?

The party has done very well. It has done everything under the sun to protect its votes. What it has not done well is to shout to the high heavens for the world to know or if need be protest on the streets.

You said that the result sheets were given to the APC to go home and fill the results. Don’t you think that such a situation will be difficult to prove in court if INEC tenders the forged results as the original?

Of course, it can. I want to assure you, it can because even where they have them the originals when they are writing the results, they don’t make the copies legible enough for you to read so that when you are trying to do the calculation, you wouldn’t know what figures are there. So they are very clever except that they are clever only by half.

Unknown to them, we had before the election, advised our people on how to snap with the camera, the results that were being signed at the various polling booths. We had cameras that captured all discussions and voting in those areas. This is why they are hysterical that they don’t want us to go to court because I said that we had captured 99 per cent of the results that were declared in the country. All the things they do at ward and local government levels would not tally with what was obtained at the polling units which is the foundation of the whole process.

While the INEC Chairman was announcing the results, Nigerians also noticed some discrepancies in terms of the number of those accredited, total votes cast and number of rejected or invalid votes. Do you think this could be an issue in court?

Of course, yes. We have three ways of proving these matters. What we have captured on camera, the result sheets that we were able to snap and also the accreditation in the Card Reader. If there is a discrepancy between accreditation and results declared that makes the whole thing in the whole state a nullity. It was clearly stated by the INEC Chairman and we have him on camera that wherever the Card Reader is not used, the election is null and void in those places.

Don’t you think they could resort to the legal argument that the Card Reader is not in the Electoral Act but only a guideline?

Of course, there is nothing they will not try but it is part of the INEC guideline which must be followed. But they can resort to anything but if the judiciary still has men of honour, the matter is sorted out.

With the Onnoghen saga and other things that have happened to the judiciary, do you think that the Nigerian judiciary will not be cowed to overlook what you call discrepancies in this election?

Well, that is left for them. I hope you know that in my religion, today on earth the representatives of God are judicial officers who are supposed to dispense justice without fear or favour. If they don’t, those who believe in God among them, know that they are going to meet the overall Chief Justice later. Secondly, there are certain evidence that when you are confronted with them, whether you like my face or you don’t like it, you have no choice but to uphold the truth.

In the last few days, some prominent Nigerians and interest groups including the ruling party, APC have been asking the PDP not to go to court. What do you make of these calls?

In fact, what I see in the whole thing is that the APC people are just fools. Let me give you example of three people who are what they are today because they approached the court when they felt cheated in an election.

First is the Chairman of the party, Adams Oshiomhole, who is now saying that Atiku should not go to court, that Atiku is a perpetual loser. He doesn’t know that he is castigating and denigrating himself. Why did he go to court when he lost election? He got his mandate through the courts and he doesn’t want someone else to go to court. I think you should ask him why he doesn’t want Atiku to go to court.

Secondly, candidate himself, Buhari; how many times did he go to court? Even when his party withdrew from the court process, he continues with the court case. So he has no locus whatsoever to ask somebody not to go to court without referring to why he went to court when he was in a similar situation. Even when he contested against his own junior brother, President Umar Yar Adua of blessed memory, he went to court even when there were entreaties from some people that they were the same people.

Then the last of the three – the Director General of the Campaign, Rotimi Amaechi. How did he become Governor of Rivers State? He is a beneficiary of the court process but he does not want another person to go to court. Do you need me to give you more examples than these three?

The intriguing thing about all these issues is hypocrisy. Why are they afraid about someone going to court? Why is it that they don’t want Atiku to go to court? If they have their facts that they won this election fair and square, why should they be afraid? Let them go to court; they can go and finish him there. Are they the ones giving him money to pay for lawyers? Did they give him money to contest the election? After all they arrested everyone around him and blocked their accounts. So what is their wahala? Let him go and suffer now.

Atiku is not saying that the court must give him judgment; all he is saying is that he must exercise his democratic rights guaranteed by the Constitution of Nigeria. The law says that when you are dissatisfied with an election, you go to court and challenge the result and prove it. If you don’t prove it, let the court’s day so. So what’s their issue? Can’t Nigerians see that they are so desperate to remain in power? It means there is something they know which we don’t know and that thing that we don’t know may come out in court and all these talk about honesty and integrity would have been floored.

Maybe after that, nobody will again raise his hand to say he’s honest or he has integrity. None of them has any integrity. Let me close this chapter by telling you that Joseph Stalin of Russia once said that: ‘Those who vote decide nothing but those who count the votes determine everything.’

One of the complaints of your party in the Presidential election is the use of the military to manipulate the electoral process in favour of the ruling party. We are approaching another election on Saturday, are you not afraid that the military would still be deployed for the same purpose?

Let me tell you what is coming. They will even go beyond the military. But in the first place, let us look at the use of the military. It was Buhari and I that took the military to court and the Supreme Court, after years of litigation, ruled that the military has no role in any civilian matter, especially in an election. But because they are forgetful, maybe they are suffering from dementia, they’ve forgotten the ruling of the Supreme Court. They have committed the same offence which the Supreme Court had ruled against. This is why we say, they are lawless people who have no respect for the rule of law. I have said that times without number.

Having said this, what are the Rules of Engagement (ROE) for the military in internal security containment? The role is explicit in military laws that for you to deploy the military internally even for internal strife and there was none. The elections have not even been conducted when the government deployed the military. There was no fight; there was no strife; they just deployed the military to harass and intimidate people and make sure that they don’t vote.

The Rule of Engagement says the Nigeria Police has the responsibility to provide security across Nigeria. If the task is beyond them, it is the Police that should tell the Commander-In-Chief that the situation is beyond them and they need the assistance of the military.

When it comes to electoral matters, it is the INEC Chairman, according to our laws that should invite even the Police, let alone the military, for any duty. Is it the INEC Chairman that told them he cannot conduct this election and that the military should be invited? I think there is the need for the press to confront the INEC Chairman and find out if he was the one who invited the military.

So what are your fears?

My fear is that they (APC ) have already said that they want all their governors to return. They want them to retain their positions whether they win their election or not. We heard some of them who are our friends telling us that we shouldn’t waste our time. In addition to their own governors, they have also zeroed in on taking over Sokoto by force; Benue by force; Kwara by force; Taraba by force; Akwa Ibom by force; Rivers by force and also take Delta by force. You know what it will take for them to retain any state in the South-West where they lost all the six states of the South -West to Atiku?

You mean the PDP won the entire South -West in the Presidential election?

Of course, that’s our record.

You mean including Lagos?

Lagos is the most apparent. They (APC) didn’t get one quarter of what PDP got in Lagos. They only used what was contained in the bullion van – that is money and thugs – to go and attack Igbo controlled areas. They think we don’t know? Again, by force they want to retain Oyo and Plateau which they lost in the presidential election. As far as they are concerned, they have manipulated Gombe State and that is the end of the story. They want to retain Kaduna by force and everybody knows that is a state they’ve lost already. If they allow free and fair election that will also lose Kano and that is why they are deploying this kind of tactics by bringing this court judgment at the nick of time, so that they can weaken the opposition that is ready to take over in Kano.

https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10157435701677841&id=595332840

So we still have humans that think this shallow on something that is open to all that Buhari/APC stole the people's mandate in the last sham called election.

I hope Lalasticlala can take this to the homepage it will be of great help to those going through this common and life threatening ailments. We can learn from this piece from the sufferer.

CodeTemplar:
A lot happens at midnight.

I tell you my brother unfortunately, only the wise and the determined can understand this. Time waits for no one.

Facts about MIDNIGHT prayers :
1. MIDNIGHT is a time of transition, from one day to another. God can bring a transition in your life as you pray at MIDNIGHT.
2. MIDNIGHT is a time of great spiritual activity, both good and evil. Destinies of men are shaped and interrupted at MIDNIGHT.
If you are not shaping your destiny at MIDNIGHT, then somebody may interrupt your life at MIDNIGHT.
3. At a natural level great victories have been won when nations were caught by surprise as their armies were asleep at MIDNIGHT. Satan launches attacks at MIDNIGHT: he feeds people in their dreams at MIDNIGHT; he rapes others in their dream as they are asleep at MIDNIGHT, etc.
4. Great calamities are spiritually effected at MIDNIGHT.
God had to wait until midnight to execute judgment on Egypt: (Exodus 11:4-6) Then Moses said, “Thus says the LORD: ‘About MIDNIGHT I will go out into the midst of Egypt; and all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the female servant who is behind the hand mill, and all the firstborn of the animals.’”
5. Midnight is the time people are most vulnerable to spiritual attacks. It is the hour when enemies lay siege and render people defenseless. It is also the time that you can launch a deadly, surprise attack on your enemies’ camp.
6. As a Christian, you can break open closed doors as you pray at MIDNIGHT. Samson lay low till MIDNIGHT; then he arose at MIDNIGHT, took hold of the doors of the gate of the city and the two gateposts, pulled them up, bar and all, put them on his shoulders, and carried them to the top of the hill that faces Hebron. (Judges 16:3)
7. Mysterious things happen the most at MIDNIGHT. Have you lost anything or anyone very dear to you under mysterious circumstances?
Chances are that the operation was carried out at the MIDNIGHT hour. Remember the harlot in Solomon’s time who lost her child by sleeping on it at MIDNIGHT and at MIDNIGHT she stole her friend’s child:
1 Kings 3:20(KJV) And she arose at MIDNIGHT, and took my son from beside me, while your handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom.
8. Great spiritual transactions happens at MIDNIGHT. Solomon got wisdom from God at MIDNIGHT. If you are not receiving something good at midnight, then chances are high that there are evil changes happening against you at MIDNIGHT.
9. Very wicked operations happen at MIDNIGHT but we can change that.
We must arise and fight. We must wake up and pray. If we do, we can have great impact in our societies and churches.
10. David, the man who never lost a single battle in all his life, has this to say:
At MIDNIGHT, I will rise and give thanks to You, because of your righteous judgments. (Psalm 119:62)
What excuse do you have? Do you say, “I wish I arise but I’ll be tired”? Do you have a busier schedule than that of King David (President of the nation of Israel?). I don’t think so.
11. Do you know better than what Paul and Silas knew? Who praised and worshipped God at MIDNIGHT:
But at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them. Suddenly there was a great earthquake so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone’s chains were loosed. (Acts 16:25-26)
12. MIDNIGHT is the best time to make serious intercession:
And He said to them, “which of you shall have a friend, and go to him at MIDNIGHT and say to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves; for a friend of mine has come to me on his journey, and I have nothing to set before him;’ And he will answer from within and say, ‘Do not trouble me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give it to you’? I say to you, though he will not rise and give to him because he’s his friend, yet because of his persistence he will rise and give him as many as he needs.” (Luke 11:5-
13. Praying at MIDNIGHT is a sacrifice that will not go unrewarded. God sees our desperation through the sacrifices we make to Him.
It is my prayer that the Lord will help us to understand that when we are asleep, Satan and his demons aren’t asleep but they are busy launching arrows at us,
May the Lord help us to understand that there are serious activities that takes place at MIDNIGHT much of which are against us as Christians
May the Lord deliver us from spiritual laziness so that we can rise up to defend our inheritance and to take back what the devil has stolen from us.
In Jesus name
GOD BLESS YOU AS YOU PRAY AT MIDNIGHT TONIGHT AND FOREVER!

1. Hold the needle - on the fire, or with a candle, sterilize this needle and then use it to prick the tops of all 10 fingers.

2. No specific acupuncture is necessary; it should only be a few millimeters from the nail.

3. Perform so that blood can flow.

4. If blood does not drip, tighten and start squeezing.

5. When all 10 fingers begin to bleed wait a few minutes - you will see that the victim will be back to life!

6. If the victim's mouth is deformed, massage his ears until they become red - so that the blood can come to them.

7. Then prick with the needle in each ear in the soft part, to drop two drops of blood from each ear. A few minutes later, his mouth would not be distorted
Wait until the victim comes to normal without any unusual symptoms, then send him to the hospital.
This method of blood shedding to save life is a traditional Chinese medicine method, and its practical application is 100% effective and by using it people can survive a stroke ...

Ratello,

Stop smoking this thing, you won't hear.

I am sure this news is already making you to shiver as events unfold in the not too far distance.

Iyajison:
APC plans of rigging already showed up during the suspension of the former CJN........ They've already placed their own there... He (Tanko) will surely pass the judgement to favour his employer.

Wrong perception bro, 7 Justices make up the Supreme Court and for judgment to be finally passed at least 4 of these Senior Judges must assent to it which.makes the CJN ineffective here and besides, looking at the crop of SANs and top lawyers Atiku had already hired for this big case and the incriminating evidences at his disposal, Buhari stands no chance. Wait for it, May 29th, We shall have a new President!

modath:
Which Marabout deceive you & your Klepto MCM ?

You talked with so much conviction even when it was patently obvious the tide wasn't flowing una way... Like you had the gift of seeing the future.... If not that I was 100000000% sure the fugitive firewood klepto was unelectable, I'd have been sold....

I am so glad that you caught the bug in this piece however wait until May 29th and please come back to honour me my e-wifey.

His Excellency Atiku Abubakar Could Still Unseat President Buhari At The Supreme Court.
Posted by admin
By Anayo M. Nwosu

The presidential elections seem to have been concluded and the winner announced but it is not yet over.

By rejecting the results and heading for court, Atiku Abubakar, the PDP’s presidential candidate has extended the presidential contest which result could be in his favour.

This time around, only the judiciary, especially the justices of the Supreme Court of Nigeria will “elect” or determine who shall become the substantive Nigeria’s president.

Nigerians should refresh their minds on how, the current chieftains of APC especially, Rotimi Amaechi dethroned Celestine Omehia in Rivers state, how Aregbesola replaced Prince Oyinlola in Osun state, and how Adams Oshiomhole had to take the governorship seat from Prof. Osunbor in Edo state.

The above named APC politicians achieved their electoral victories through the courts many months after the winners who they unseated became eventual losers, were sworn in. All these happened in the last 16 years when PDP was in power and had all apparatuses of power under their almpit.

I am sure that President Buhari and some leaders of APC have realised that there is a rattle snake in their presidential roof going by the judicial pronouncements in the cases of Oshiomhole versus Osunbor (Edo) and Aregbesola versus Oyinlola (Osun) where irrefutable proofs of rigging, noncompliance with electoral guidelines and proven cases of election violence would lead to a judicial cancellation of the resulted areas and recompute the valid votes and announce the winner.

PDP and some observers claim that the use of card readers in the south disinfranchised many voters while manual voting was allowed in the extreme north. The implications of such lapse in the use of card readers across board seem to have favoured the winners.

In his acceptance speech, Buhari had cautioned his supporters not to gloat and deride the losers even though Adams Oshiomhole would not hear of that. He has been gloating and ridiculing Saraki over his loss.

Buhari who is an experienced presidential election results contestant in court knows that the final verdict is yet to be given on his re-election bid. Anything is possible.

Shebi APC people call Atiku a thief? They will see his awesome skills in court.

With the vigilance of a thief, Atiku who had a prior knowledge of rigging plot against him wired his agents and undercover observers with secret cameras aided with satellite photography which were warehoused in the cloud out of reach of evidence destroyers.

Atiku had invested heavily in surveillance technology and has been able to record all the electoral malefesances committed in the areas where APC won the big numbers. He anticipated it and he was prepared for it. His evidence in court would be torture, painstaking and irrefutable. And he has good lawyers who had handled such cases before.

Atiku knows that our laws had been amended to allow deposition of electronic evidence and he will gleefully tend more than sufficient amount to prove his case to annul the votes in areas of interest. It would be an earthquake.

Has any of those gloating over Buhari’s victory even looked at the INEC’s electoral guideline that insisted that no vote would count unless the voter was accredited using a card reader?

Even though the Supreme Court had ruled that the use of card readers was unknown to the electoral act but INEC adhoc officers’ insistence on card readers usage in some areas and not using same in some areas where jumbo figures were recorded will make the honourable Justices decide to cancel the results in the areas affected in favour of equity and good conscience. If this happens Atiku would be announced the winner.

I expect Atiku’s legal team to keep it simple. I believe that they would select those states that gave Buhari upto 8million votes and apply for their invalidation based on incontrovertible evidence noncompliance with INEC’s guidelines

I told them they are going to refer to this thread later. Buhari is going, no doubt about that

Leave them to wallow in their ignorances it is a question of time.
