IfnobeGod20: You're now turning your word up side down by yourself, after using the word wrongly.
Yes, Tinubu is love by his political associates no doubt about that but that doesn't translate to Yoruba as a whole loving him. If he was so loved, as he went campaign for his nephew in Osun state, APC would not have lost that election.
Again, if he was so loved in south west those he has been supporting before the merger of AC/ACN to form APC in 2007 and 2011 they would have won massively in south west the way Buhari always win massively in north west and partly north east.
Tinubu has no single organic love in south west, forget all this your overrated ego you're ascribing to him. The only politician all over the nation that has organic support is Buhari and no other politician has that. Tinubu only have associates all over the south west and the money they have is working for them heavily. The other set that are rooting for him are doing so based on ethnic bias and religion colouration and not because they really love him. I say this as an Omoluabi and someone in the midst of my people.
Someone with organic love will not panic and will not be doing continuous rallies everytime and vote canvassing will also be minimal because of the sure assurance that people are behind him. And that is why Buhari then rarely do serious campaign but still fair greatly in the north.
I don't argue blindly because I don't allow my emotion to overrun me, I go with fact and figure.
Based on your logic the party Buhari created- CPC should have won the governorship election in all Northern states. oh wait... they didnt? ... CPC didnt even win one gubernatorial election but the influence and love for Buhari still cant be denied. So does Datti losing a senatorial election as a CPC member take anything away from Buhari's Northern love. Haruna Kajuru of CPC also lost the governorship election in Kaduna in 2011. same with Jafaru also of CPC in Kano or does Bello Masari losing the gubernatorial election in Katsina as a CPC member in 2011 change the love Buhari has always enjoyed. As a matter of fact: Katsina is even Buhari's state of origin.
How much more Tinubu who is more or less a godfather in SW and has been so since the time of AD to ACN/AC and is the founding father of APC influencing the election of several people into the state ,federal and senatorial positions.
Name any politician that is as influential and loved in SW as BAT, talk more , more influential. Just name one.. Tinubu is approaching Abiola/Awolowo level of influence in SW.
If truly you work with facts you will know that OBJ lost to Olu Falae in a presidential election in SW. you will also know that OBJ has barely won his own polling unit or LG.
It's only a political novice that compares OBJ to Tinubu's acceptance in SW since 1999 till date.
When it comes to SW ; they are not even close. In fact it can be argued that Adedibu (before his death) holds more influence and love than OBJ in Yorubaland.
IfnobeGod20: Do you know the meaning of someone having an organic support or you just heard people using it and you want to impress me? Organic support is a support done on your behalf without the knowledge of you or anyone close to you. Tell me any rally or gathering done for Tinubu that one APC man or supporter will not trigger it. Is it the youth rally supporter by Seyi or is it the women rally sponsored by Remi or is it the campaign rally sponsored by the party men and women. Don't just carelesslly use word you know not the meaning. You are the one still blabbing for over three days now and what to show that Tinubu's image is better than OBJ, forgetting that local champion cannot be compare to world champion. How would a former Head of State, a former minister, a General of repute and a former President of a country be jealous of former governor and just less than 2 years senator? Continue blabbing by asking irrelevant question that the Pharisees also asked Jesus during his earthly ministry. If OBJ contest for president today, he will still win Tinubu hands down because the north and part of the south will trust him than your Tinubu. So, what's the irrelevant local champion question you're throwing around amount to?
Organic support is bourne out of sheer love for that person. Tinubu is love by the Yorubas and that has nothing to do with him contesting in the forthcoming election.
Another person with that organic support/love is Kwankwaso in Kano state. He is obviously not as popular nationwide as many politicians past and present and may not even win the Kano votes for the presidential election but his fanbase is not based on any financial or entitled benefit.
OBJ can never get that in SouthWest while Tinubu gets that effortlessly.
If Buhari pulls his weight behind Tinubu, I promise you that even OBJ will lose to BAT.
The combination of the organic love Buhari has up North and that of BAT in SW is enough to smash any candidate.
OBJ influence up North has faded and when he had it, it was down to agreements between him and many ex-generals/ influential figures. Buhari right from the early 2000s and till date barely needs massive spending prowess nor any agreement to get Northern support. That is why he could form a party-CPC and withing a few months got 11M votes almost entirely from the North (even when Yaradua,GEJ were still loved by all).
Buhari and Tinubu combination will smash any candidate.
The few that wont back them are the neutrals based on the poor performance of APC as a whole. But individually, Buhari owns the love of an average Northerner likewise Tinubu to SW.
Even when OBJ was a military general, Awolowo was the natural leader that was loved by the Yoruba; Akintola came up out of greed and even he couldnt match the love for Awolowo in SW till date.
OBJ is just a Yoruba man by name. He is more a Northerner in growth and connect or love(which is even conditional).
Yorubaland no really send am.
These things are obvious, even in football ; Ronaldo may be the GOAT but in Man.United the likes of Giggs and maybe even Rooney are still way more loved.
These things are obvious, except you just love arguing blindly.
StagethemTVee: Presidential aspirant of the APC Bola Ahmed Tinubu the Emilokan Crooner is in the news again as he refused being assisted while walking to his seat. He asked that the people around him clear off his path and then started dancing to Buga before finally walking to his seat.
Bola Tinubu Refuses Help As He Walks Away From Pondium Dancing
IfnobeGod20: Who is more influential between Tinubu and OBJ in Nigeria? Who will cough in the north east, north west, north central, south east and south South and they will heed to him? Who would the world leaders listen to as far as Nigerian leaders are concerned? Put together all the Nigerian leaders including the ones in your local government and my own and all you know and compare them with OBJ. You know what, OBJ issue is liken to what Jesus' experience during his life ministry. Hear what the Bible says, Jesus said to them, “A prophet is treated with honour everywhere except in his own hometown, among his relatives, and in his own house.” Why the world is celebrating him, his own people are treating him with disdain but give honour to their tax masters. Read
That influence and organic support Tinubu has always had from his people is exactly why OBJ envies him.
You are just blabbing off track, stick to the topic.
IfnobeGod20: Of all I explained this is all you can say or come up with. The same thing I wrote was what you corroborated. His influence is what is killing APC in south west because he wished to plant his people everywhere. He almost did same in Kogi state by bringing Faleke who is already representing Lagos at House of Reps, neglecting those that are toiling and touring to build the party in Kogi state. His ambition is more paramount to him than anything. If Fayemi and Akeredolu had not played smart on him, they would not have had chance of governing their respective state at all. His high-handedness caused the failure of APC in Osun state but instead of people to tell it to him, they are afraid to say the truth. If he has allowed Aregbesola to take control of the state, APC would not have lost the state but his personal ambition is driving him crazy to do the right thing. Point of correction, APC had never controlled the whole south west since its formation. Ekiti and Ondo were under the occupation of PDP when APC was formed and then Oyo for PDP. Most of the senators in Ondo, Osun and Oyo are also from PDP extraction.
Now go back to the crux, between Tinubu and OBJ , who is more influential in SW?
Even when OBJ was wanted by most Nigerians in 1999, he still couldnt win SW votes and you are here blabbing.
Massiveglory: With all the challenges facing our nation, a presidential candidate who should be telling the electorates what he has to offer left lagos all the way to kano to go dance?
Anyway my abokis brothers from kano and neighboring states don make enough money today.
The number of votes tinubu gets will give us direction on the number of psychiatric homes we need to build.
Kingpele: My man need the money ,he saw shege in the hand of sapa...he should collect the money because he definitely need it but on election day he should be obident...he's former celebrity no one will follow him to bulabu balubulu Republic except those urchins who have made up their minds to be unfortunate in life
when an ex footballer or actor supports Tinubu its because they are broke, when Otedola supports Tinubu its because he is part of the elite ruining Nigeria.
The biggest hypocrites are those that support and see Nnamdi Kanu as a hero but see Simon Ekpa as the villian despite them enforcing the same IPOB movement in the same violent way.
I almost forgot our dear Peter Obi that claims they are peaceful people and he lived with them.
NwaIdeato: LMFAOOOO Kwankwaso and Atiku will pull a crowd 10x larger than this, we don't care about the Norhern Muslim votes as we don't expect to win there anyways, Kwankwaso and Atiku will Obidiently serve as spoilers for us against Emi lo kan
How do you want to win a presidential election in Nigeria without winning in any of the Kardashian states? Do you know the population of Kano at all? Kano mba Katsina mba Kaduna mba Even Sokoto,Bauchi,Borno mba ; but you want win election.
Assuming your sharing formula is even right. Have you asked yourself, what if Kwankwaso steps down for Tinubu as he has suggested by himself a few months ago?
uchelouis45: LOL. Can Tinubu pull such crowd in the Southeast or South South or even the South West? We don't need 100% votes from the North. Crowd wey Atiku and Kwankwaso go still share with am. Kpata Kpata people wey go dey that stadium no go pass 500,000 people
Lol... .. . You actually added SouthWest and in you think Tinubu cant pull crowd in Yorubaland. This your skunk must be among the few Escobar produced before he died.
Lade18: Recently met this single lady of one. Been the one footing her bills and sending her daughter (5yrs old) to school. She told me She wouldn't let us have sex until she sees I'm committed and reality love her. Although, that's not the reason I'm talking care of her daughter, I just naturally love to spend for people I care about. Just recently, she's wanting to know how much I give my mom and why I'm the one sending her money when she has a shop and making her money.
Yesterday, she told me I don't love her enough. That, if I can open a shop for my mom , then I can do more for her. But I wasn't the one that opened the shop for her, I just supported her.
Now, we had sex for the first time last month and has been denying me sex since then. Yesterday, she came around and I initiated sex, she denied. She told me if we're ever gonna be together, I should learn how to be a man. In her world, being a man involve me cooking, laundry, take her out, and clean. I told her that's cool. But I don't know what a woman will be doing in a House if she's not working while I'm the one footing her bills. If I ask her this, she would get angry.
My fellow men, why are the requirements for sex getting on the increase these Days? Is that they way it's supposed to be?
She no complain when you dey spend on her and her daughter but its a problem when its your mum. She is drip sexing you.. just enough to keep you begging for more.
