PoliticsRe: Muslim-Muslim Ticket: Northern Govs Greek gift to Tinubu - Babachir Lawal by searchlight: 6:34am On Jul 13, 2022
Throwback:
It would have been foolish of Tinubu to go for a paperweight Christian running mate to court the votes of those who are more inclined to voting PDP or LP.

Tinubu has made the right choice for his presidential ambition.

Christians like me who support him are doing so to get to the Presidency, and not to please his antagonists and lose the Presidency.

Some say Tinubu is greedy and blinded by ambition.

They forget about Atiku the political prostitute that has been changing parties just so he can contest the Presidency everytime since 2007.

They forget Obi that betrayed APGA just so he can benefit from the national structures of PDP and was running mate to Atiku in 2019. Same Obi bought Presidential ticket forms of the PDP and only abandoned the party when he saw he would be a loser at the primaries that was only less than a week away. He hurriedly moved to Labour Party and prevailed on Pat Utomi to step down for him, so he could be the automatic candidate.

They do not remember that Tinubu has always grown his own party and formed alliances to get to where he is now. Since he left office as Governor in 2007, he has never campaigned for any political office until now, but was campaigning for others and contributing his quota to the success of others.

When things became tough in APC, Tinubu did not decamp to any party or SDP as wailers had been parroting. Instead, it was the darling of the wailers that absconded from the PDP that gave him a national spotlight in 2019, only to enter a Labour Party he never laboured for and become the Presidential candidate as a rebounding failure from PDP.

While Tinubu over the years was patient and able to organically plot his way to the presidential ticket of a party he laboured for with the initial formation of AC in 2006 that later aligned with other opposition parties to become APC in 2013.


If Tinubu is greedy, desperate, and overambitious with his patience and organic political growth, what then is Atiku and Obi?
Must you mention Obi? Is labour party the main opposition party? It is like obi is giving you sleepless nights

OBi is never a problem

Tinubu is not even a matter

My pain with Obi is him taking igbos back to 84”

Why withdraw and quit.. with out proper consultation and then limiting igbo politcal future to another long term

Then IPOB suddenly hijack of the campaign

OBi was the only candinate that is about penetrating the North after aAzikwe

Then suddenly made a complete u turn to start from scratch

That’s goofing .. but igbos will realize this after 2023 .. approaching 2027

Politcs is planned .. not spontaneous
Obi is your next President you can go and die if you can't bear it. Since when did you started loving Igbos? Enjoy your political benefits and let Igbos be in peace. With or without government Igbos have been thriving in the ZOO so why drink Panadol for another persons headache?

It about that time of elections in Nigeria. They have started visiting churches.

This man should rest and stop wasting his time. His performance with that of Ortom won't be different. We all believed Ortom was a business man who had companies and had employed people so much in the state, so if elected, he would bring that in governance and Benue will be rich and wealthy. Well, Ortom ended up selling 95% of Benue assets and his company bought them all. Benue has been taken back to the stone age, very dirty and dried with pensioners dying every day because of hunger. Not even a single project has been commissioned in the state. All we hear about is Fulani herdsmen for the past 7yrs.

Peter Obi will be the same as Ortom. Cutting cost doesn't me good governance.

Show me pictorial evidences that Obi transformed Anambra.

Tinubu ruled lagos without federal allocation and yet lagos generates high IGR till date. Tinubu has done it practically, it is evident - clear to the blind and audible to the deaf, even the dumb can sing his praises.

LegendHero:
Nice one from these groups.

It is your right to come out to vent your anger on the ticket. This is democracy and you have every right to be angry.

However, in the game of numbers and decision analysis, most Northern Christians usually give their votes to the PDP and historical data also shows this. Which means that Tinubu already foresaw that there will be withdrawal and realignment, it is already factored in the numbers.

With North being Muslim majority, it will be sure defeat for Tinubu if he had chose a minority Christian as VP. These outburst by CAN/Northern Christians could even have a resultant effect where the average Muslim in the North that won’t vote Tinubu before might be swayed by religious sentiment to make a statement about their numbers in the North.

We welcome more of this outburst, and I hope you can keep the momentum till next year because sentiment analysis shows that Nigerians generally can’t keep up the pace for long.
What about christian majority from the south. Was it factored as well? Blind political analyst. So someone who's rooting for Atiku or Kwankwaso will come vote Tinubu because of christians outburst? As if Atiku and kwankwaso aren't Muslims.

Go and ask Bobby Whine as how it dey go
we shouldn't be carried away by the online frenzy? What shall we be carried away with? Jonathan was a no body until he beat Atiku in PDP primaries in 2011 and Buhari in general election. If you still think that Peter Obi is a no body in Nigeria political terrain then you are not in the know. Peter Obi is the most talked about presidential candidate in Nigeria both at home and abroad. I understand your pains anyway, you thought it would have been Atiku and Tinubu while south easterners will wail and cry till after general election but boom Obi crawled out from no where and started to steal the show and the head line. Your pains are justifiable. Even if Obi didn't win at least he's represented well so far.

Its now that peter gave labour party money?

Coming from a terrible Known tribalist claiming activist. What did he achieve as an activist as he claims? Collecting money from people and selling them off.

Perhaps he's angry that PETER OBI didn't give him shishi.


I think that SOWORE IS BEHIND this your username.

Enemies of a better Nigeria at work.

Balderdash...... Hogwash

NATO has been sending arms mostly through Poland into Ukraine.

Since Russia is so powerful, why have they not fired one single bullet into Poland.....

After all Putin warned at the beginning of the War that no nation should interfere in his Special War Crimes operation.

NATO has been interfering, Putin should do his Worst. But he cannot because he is a Toothless Bulldog.

Under his watch, The European Union is carrying Ukraine away to join the league of Civilized Nations. Something Putin never wanted for Ukraine.

Under his watch, Finland and Sweden are on brink of Joining NATO. Something that was unthinkable a year ago.

Putin's Russia is the biggest loser in this War because NATO has fully come to their Borders. Something that Putin has been fighting against.

Even if Russia succeed in their land grabbing attempt in Ukraine, Putin is still a Big Fat Loser because the things he never imagined or wanted are happening all around him.

Slava Ukraini ..... Glory to the Heroes.
If US /NATO has been that powerful why didn't that confront Russia like they did in Afghanistan?

Don't believe or trust Americans , they are masters in mind games.

US keep developing dangerous weapons without announcing or making details public.

Remember US annual defence budget is $750m annually while that of Russia is $56m , so what do you think America do with $750m defence budget annually ? Yeah building unclassified weapons.

Till this day no one knows the bomb US used in Hiroshima, not even the Russians can tell.
I think the use the $750m to fight in lybia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Ukraine, Kosovo and others and nothing for weapon development. Do you understand or should I continue?

MrPolitics:
Wike is a strong party man that held the PDP together no doubt.

However, how was he done wrong? He contested for the presidency and the delegates voted him 2nd for different reasons. His uncouth method of speaking is probably one of it. He publicly stated that he wasn’t interested in VP.
Okowa worked actively for Atiku to win the primaries. It was an arrangement they had. It would be unfair to just dump him last minute for a man who is very controversial and said he never wanted the position.

Perhaps the way they went about it was wrong. I don’t know cause I wasn’t there but Wike will always have a place in PDP I think.

They will settle it anyway
I can't see any bad treatment on Wike.
