Yes, it is a free country. But we know what desperate politicians especially the ruling party are capable of doing since they are after 'winning' and little or nothing else matters. Nigeria can burn to ashes so long as certain politicians have the power. We also know how 'strong' and truly 'independent' our institutions including the so-called Independent National Electoral Commission and the judiciary currently are. I don't really blame the APC presidential candidate. He appears so desperate that he is willing to do anyone's bidding so long as he achieve's his life time ambition of becoming the president. The ruling party to me is to blame. Knowing how polarized our country currently is and how sensitive and important the issue of religious representation is to us (from both sides of the divide), I think the party should have been circumspect in their choice of candidates and running mate. There were lots of southern Christian aspirants who contested for the presidential primaries under the ruling party: the current vice president, professor Yemi Osinbajo, Rt Hon. Rotimi Amaechi, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu, Engineer David Umahi, Chief Godswill Akpabio, Mr. Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba, Dr. Ken Nnamani, professor Ben Ayade, Owelle Rochas Okorocha etc. Why didn't the APC choose one of them and then choose a northern Muslim as running mate (since a northern Christian cannot represent the north)? If a northern Christian is dispensable to give way for same faith ticket, even if it will cause religious upheaval and brouhaha, can't a southern Muslim be dispensable for the sake of religious balancing, unity and peaceful coexistence of our already divided nation? Or is non of these southern Christian politicians 'competent' enough to be president under the ruling APC? Is APC a Muslim party in disguise?

The usual load of rubbish! Being someone’s in-law doesn’t mean you are or were ever close associates or confidants.
If this Tee-Mac guy is so convinced that the man is a liar, why has he not deemed it fit to persuade his cousin (or whatever Remi Tinubu is to him) to leave her husband on account of this claimed untruthfulness.
If the donkey says Tinubu is 86 years old….that’s simply an outlandish claim and enough to put a lie to any closeness to Remi Tinubu. This Tee-Mac guy needs to go get a proper job and earn a living in a more decent way than trying to tarnish other people’s reputation. What a goon!

FreedomfromtheT:
I see. You and the APC's definition of 'competence' is the capacity to be used to win elections and not necessarily the capacity of the candidate to govern well. Amidst the insecurities, corruption, dwindling economy and biting hardships in Nigeria, winning of election is paramount to politicians and in this case the ruling APC. But to the suffering majority of Nigerians, competence in terms of a candidate's ability to pull the nation out of its numerous challenges is paramount.

FreedomfromtheT:
Yes, because most of Senator Bola Tinubu's Muslim northern supporters cannot vote for him if he picks a northern Christian as running mate. Yet APC supporters hypocritically claim that religion should not be an issue but 'competence'. Instead of saying the obvious, the APC presidential flagbearer keeps on adding salt to injury by claiming that he went for 'competence' thereby insinuating that no northern Christian is competent enough to become Nigeria's vice president which is an insult to them.

Arrowss:
The head of house of rep, also being at the fore front when we talk about fed. Gov. Resumes "leadership course" outside the country while his citizens, the younger ones, schooling in fed. Schools in his country have been out of school since Feb 14th, as a result of ASUU strike. he as an elderly man is in school, he even at the period announced it publicly that he is studying. As a Nigerian only this incidence is enough to tell what is going on in this country if you think deep, honestly, try and find a way for your selves and your families. Good morning.

KanwuliaExtra:
This dude is so fake and irritating!
What other indiscretions has he failed to apologize for?

Including his hideous “papa portable zazooscious” look?

So, what’s wrong in refusing to be pretentious like the rest of the crowd?
What is wrong in wearing your grey hairs the way things have turned out with your advancing age? Do we all have wear false Brazilian wigs, false eyelashes, false buttocks, etc, in order to impress people and make them think we are what we’re not?
Surely, his charming wife has not complained to you. So, get off your high horse and stay in your lane, my friend!

FreedomfromtheT:
So Yakubu Dogara and Babachir Lawal are Igbos. I thought it's only Igbos that are against Muslim/Muslim ticket of the APC according to the ruling party's propagandists.

It’s nothing but sour grapes…..one of them was expecting to be picked as Asiwaju’s running mate but they were overlooked. Simplicita!

vicdom:

Dogara is wondering what he will tell his constituency who are predominantly christians

Far from it. I doubt if he’s concerned about his constituency in any way or form. It’s just sour grapes….he was expecting to be picked as Asiwaju’s running mate but he was overlooked. Simplicita!

A man with the same principles and good looks as Thomas Sankara.
I've searched for a man like this all my life but I've been unsuccessful so far. It looks like I'll never find a man at least similar to him, with the similar ideals and way of thinking.
He doesn't necessarily have to be revolutionist but he can be a sensible social justice warrior, not the one that panders to the idiosyncrasies of the left.
In this day and age, I'm beginning to doubt a man like this exists. But if I find him, I swear not even heaven or hell will separate us.
If I never find him, I'm content to be single and old with my 48 cats or may be explore the other side of my sexuality.
Thank God he's not a Nigerian man

Can’t you see that everything in the Material World is transient? Everything must die, decompose and eventually rot away….including your handsome Romeo. Doesn’t it make more sense to look for lasting qualities that can stand the test of time?
Is it any wonder that some unscrupulous men keep using you ladies like football….because you’re always running after what a million other women are also pursuing. Would they ever use their common sense? It is doubtful.

Every of Tinubu's move threatening Reno Omokirikiri and Atiku
Since when is Director General of a Campaign organisation a religious affiars?!

Tinubu is using El Rufai to send a clear message.. do any how and end in a body bag

You wicked, man!!

Idiko1:
Arant nonsense!!! Nigerians are shameless jokers. Tobi Amusan had been an athlete since high school, yet this dummy of governor did not see her talk less adopt her.

After reading the excerpt below, you can go and tell your arrant nonsense to the Governor and the Sports Minister…since you know Tobi Amusan so intimately and how she’s been funding her athletic career. Schmutz!!

God1000:
Tinubu should be disqualified.

He's a threat to national unity, a Muslim Muslim ticket is inequitable and below the belt

Did he collect your PVC from you? Is it in the Constitution that the two first citizens must be Muslim/Christian or Christian/Muslim?
What about idol-worshippers and even Atheists or Agnostics….are they not also Nigerians or don’t they have the same fundamental human rights as the religionists? People should come off their high horse for Heaven’s sake!

Tinubu Agbado Riddim (Song) | Is it for Eba? is it for Garri? it it for Beans and Dodo?

Lolzzzz!
You guys have no respect for your incoming President oo!
If he’s the one anointed to bail Nigeria out of its present predicament, there’s very little your human machinations can do to change it. Pray that the Will of the Almighty be done in all things…not your own will.
To think that the majority of you guys call yourselves Christians….what a laugh!!

otipoju:
Stupid man . You adopted a full grown adult who is capable of bearing children.

The adoption was about funding her athletic career so that she could put in her best performance without having to worry about how to sustain herself during the period of preparation. This has paid off by her winning the Gold medal and breaking the World record. One cannot but wonder who is actually the ‘stupid one’.

Tinubu knows he isn't qualified, he's just hoping to go in there and loot money, at the detriment of 200 million souls.
How greedy can a man be?

Are you sure? ….Or is that what your ancestors in the Beyond are whispering in your ears? Just wondering o!

Antimarraige:
Let them both rot in jail please. Death to all Nigerian politicians and their families

Except Peter Obi and Datti of course

Hmmm….They shout Hosanna today and Crucify him tomorrow! Very typical. They will do the same to Obi and Datti soon!

Soso990240:
stop contradicting urself. Tinubu himself wanted to Contest for the presidency, but because it was the turn of the North after Obasanjo, he had to quench that ambition. Atiku joined the party like a Normal Politician, nobody offered him the Presidential ticket, he contested and won. Tinubu wanted to be his VP because Tinubu as a Southerner wasn't allowed to contest as President. Tinubu wanted to be Atiku's VP so that if Atiku finishes as President for 8years, he(Tinubu) will take over. But Muslim-Muslim ticket was rejected. Tinubu also tried doing that (becoming Buhari's VP) so that he win take over after Buhari, but Buhari also rejected Muslim-Muslim ticket..Tinubu even cried, because he saw that as the best opportunity to become next President after Buhari(same fast game Osibanjo tried to play). Tinubu is desperate, accept that and move on

Soso990240:
The length u people can go to defend ur master surprises me. Tinubu offered Etiku ACN to realize his Presidential ambition, so Tinubu had no presidential ambition then? una funny die

In a saner clime Tinubu shouldn't even be talking where Obi dey..

Who is Obi? If he meets his Oga, he will prostrate first. It’s Yes Sir, Yes sir, we go dey hear! Maybe they will make him Minister of Finance after losing the Presidential election….provided he has closed down his Pandora box, of course!

In a sane environment, Tinubu should be in old people's home receiving care and treatment.

First to comment.
Anyway, anybody considering voting Tilumbu or Atiaku El Cameron, it will never be well with their unborn shildren.

What has their unborn children got to do with it? Stupidly you heave a heavy burden on yourself when you try to curse people because when the curse cannot find a deserving ground to land it will simply return to sender. That is how the Law works.
So, go and get some sense before trying to curse people you do not know. Ignorance is no excuse in this matter…..stop trying to shoot yourself in the head with a loaded gun!!

Newton2024:
I laugh when people say that Muslim/Muslim ticket is not bad. A case study should be Kaduna State, how government backed islamic terrorists are dealing with Southern Kaduna people under a Muslim/Muslim administration.

For the headslammers that think it doesn't bother them because they are also muslims. I'll need to remind you that it is not only the Christians who are feeling the heat, the security situation in Kaduna has totally degenerated. Hell Rufai has given a free hand to all terrorists to operate, kidnap and kill people with reckless abandon and police are not permitted to prevent, investigate or arrest them.

If Tinubu is rigged in with a Muslim/Muslim ticket using soldiers and INEC, those of you in the South would think twice before you travel to your home state because bandits will police all the major roads in the South.

Most of you here do not see beyond a day, you do not think things ahead of time. You just do things blindly just for the moment. I hope you won't regret it later.
