PrinceOfLagos:
Shut up your mouth, what makes him a fool

He has the constitutional right to contest and not serve one useless lizard in bourdillon

Constitutional right my foot! Was it ‘constitutional right’ that put him there?
He was there as a “placeholder” and was a mere Commissioner of little consequence before that!
So, he’s not only a fool but also a bloody traitor….people like that never end well.
He should go and read about Akintola’s life and how it ended. Shior to the fake Pastor!

2 percent Salary this month for Kogi workers. Kogites have really suffered in the hands of Yeye Bello.

Where did this man get N100million from nah?

Damnnn niggar. ..

Na wetin we dey pray for be that

Who are you praying to though….Lucifer? Well, he’s not in charge in the land of the living.
So, shape up if you’re not one of his minions in the land of Darkness!

PrinceOfLagos:
No sane person will support Tinubu

The only people supporting him are mad people and sycophants

Anyone Buhari endorses is a waste and will be disgraced

They should learn from Anthony Joshua and the Super Eagles

SmartProf:
Tinubu was used to cease power from Jonathan in 2019, now Jonathan will be used by the North to cease the same presidential power that Tinubu is so desperate for. The North plays this political chess game very well.

It’s only in Nigeria that politics is seen as a “game”. No principles, no ideology or anything of the sort!
Nothing moves the politicians to serve and improve the lot of the people…..but this only happens because the people themselves are mostly illiterates with herd mentality. How shameful!!

NO

Rubbish! No more good investigative journalism again in naija, everything now is speculation, for your own information or for every person that will see this post, I am telling you authoritatively that osinbajo is buhari's candidate, leave all these brown envelopes takers calling themselves journalists alone.Honouranble Muhammed Fatahu, buhari's nephew and house of reps member representing daura constituency was in osinbajo's entourage to ibadan yesterday, what else do you need to see before you know the VP is buhari's choice? Even though I got my information before yesterday, but for people reading, this is obviously obvious.

Is Buhari the Almighty? Indirect Primaries are conducted by Secret Ballot and Consensus has been ruled out.
Can Buhari’s candidate not be beaten?

SIMONEKPA7:

Nigeria cant wait for this disaster upon her to elapse. Buhari is the greatest failure to befell Nigeria leadership scene.
Never again shall we have someone like Buhari. May God have mercy on his soul.
No election in all Igbo lands. No Igbo son or daughter shall vote or be voted for. Biafra is coming

….and while taking this position, you want Nigerians to make one of you the President & Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Forces? ….so that he can declare Biafra the second day after taking Power? How does that make sense? You guys should know what you want and adapt accordingly. Nigerians are not stupid you know!

PrinceOfLagos:
One term governor

Hopeless piece of shit

These two are definitely cooking something….you can be sure it’s not going to be palatable.
They put Uzodinma there for a reason….he who pays the Piper dictates the tune. Say no more!!

….If it could not be ascertained whether the bags contained cash or not, I guess it could also not be ascertained if the 2019 Bullion Vans contained money or just priceless documents meant for safe-keeping and were in need of protection!

Xscape1993:
Tinubu and Amaechi are incomparable. Tinubu is too weak for me....

Hmmm….I guess Tinubu has to run round the stadium a few times to show us his strength to be President!

OVB123:
The scenario is getting clearer now. Amaechi and buni comes 2023. Tinubu is out of the way because he is not the anointed one.

Let Amaechi resign his ministerial position before the Presidential Primaries….then we know he’s serious and truly anointed.
Otherwise, he’s just being foolhardy and wasting his time. Sorry o!

Austin4Jesus:
The main Ethic of Easter is "Selflessness", Jesus Left His throne in heaven and came to die for a Sin he did not commit, though He resurrected. That is the Ethic of easter, Now Baba Jagaban, you Need to imbibe that Ethic too by giving up your so called Ambition and be selfless. It must not be you, please give support to the man you know can deliver so you can rest well. Nigeria is under serious pressure so we need who will have the time for work and strength to fix the madness we are currently in.
Thank you Sir.

gsegun43:
Let's see who wins here

Like for Osinbajo, share for Jagaban






Modified:


Osinbajo is winning this no doubt

Surely, elections are not won on Nairaland…how many of you will qualify as Delegates to vote in the Primaries?

omooba969:
Una don start again, this is how your ilk will continue to do until you reach old age. By then, you wouldn't be able to turn back the hands of time.

Someday, sense will finally fall on you people.

LOL @ reach old age!
Thanks for allowing people of my ilk to reach old age oo. Hwvr, remember that old age is a privilege denied to many!!

karmaolu1:
Is tinubu 2 old and capable 2 lead out us out of the zoo? Or is he 2 old and uncapable 2lead us out of d zoo?

He is the anointed wise leader to turn the so-called Zoo into Eldorado for us ALL.
We can all look forward to the United States of WAZOBIA under his leadership as happened with Lee Kuan Yew in Singapore and Mao Tse Tung in China! What’s the need for scatter-scatter again when even the Heavens appear to have sealed our fate together?

Realist5:
Pls publish Tinubu's enemies too.
I want to have a comparative study of the two.

The ONLY person who regards himself as an enemy is Bode George….who spends sleepless nights thinking about how to pay back for the time he spent in prison. All other non-supporters are “opponents” who can even be won over when what has been decreed in higher realms become manifest!

Eriokanmi:
Ok. All I know is APC=PDP=APC=PDP.

An accused in one party is a Saint in another.

If we don't get it right as electorate by booting all of them out of power come 2023, na we sabi. Nigeria has witnessed its worst moments as a country under these to useless parties.

Our military institution was hit, no arrest was made.

The rail infrastructure they borrowed billions of dollar to build was hit, no arrest was made, Buhari didn't say a word in the media.

An international airport was invaded, a plane was stopped from Flying and a passenger was killed, no areast was made.

National grid had collapsed for over a month now and Power remains epileptic, nobody is saying anything and we keep enduring. Same people called Obasanjo, Jonathan all manner of names for the instability in the power sector. Now, who would they APC blame for the power plant that had collapsed 3 times in one month with no solution at sight after investigating almost reipple of what Obasanjo spent...ghost? Last week, my bank passed a.circular that they'd reduce their working hours due to the cost of operations, that their branches nationwide were running on diesel daily.

If we still go ahead and vote these people next year, people like Tinubu who owns one of the Discos, but keeps telling Nigerians that, had the current administration heeded his warnings, that the power grid wouldn't have collapsed...as if he's not in the same APC anymore. That's how they role people. We must shine our eyes else, we remain in same position and the condition would keep getting worse. You'd just wake up one day while struggling and look in the mirror, only to see grey hair all over your head. Then you'd realise you've spent your youthful years under slavery.

Time waits for now man/woman and the time.ti act is now. Go get your PVCs ahead of elections . Elections aren't won on Nairaland

Which one of the Discos does Tinubu own Sir? …since you have privileged information that no one else has…
or is it your usual hearsay?

alsudan:
Make desperation no go make Thiefnibu sacrifice him children to Sango just to become President.

Where his Bullion Vans have failed to give him proper endorsements (not Asari type) he thinks Propaganda can.

No renowned Nigerian will go close to Thiefnibu even with a long spoon. Man is a symbol of lies, corruption, thievery, sickness and drugs.

Are we to believe that you’ve written all the above about someone you hardly know and probably have never met?
Does anyone need to wonder why people like you have incarnated in the country called NIGERIA?

Aufbauh:
Seriously I don't know why people can't decode that Prof. Yemi Osinbajo was the 'closet candidate' of PMB.

The gut & courage of Osinbajo to openly challenge his erstwhile benefactor can only be motivated by a mortal superior power backing, who is Mr. President.
No one else could have prompted him out for this challenge, not even an audible voice from God. This is why Osinbajo shouldn't be underrated in this contest.

It is also important to note that the political dynamics of 2023 will be entirely different from 2019. This time around PMB will be interested in who succeeds him. He has already shown that through the election of the APC national executives.

The Nigeria leadership factor shouldn't be wished away. We've already concluded that all Nigeria politicians are the same so, PMB may equally be tempted to play god. That means that PMB to a large extent he'll play pertinent role in who emerges. We should not also forget that he will still remain the president after the primaries for couple of months, so it'll be extremely difficult for governors especially from the north to go against his wish.

Again much is always said about political structure but we shouldn't forget that 'structure' can be built, inherited and bought.

Conclusively this is politics and anything can happen to change the balance of power. One meeting of like minds with Mr President can send BAT to oblivion.

"Absolute power does not only corrupt but attract the corruptible"- Frank Herbert

NaijaCowFarm:
Leadership is not a popularity contest - Adams Oshomole

It is not arguable that Tinubu has a very large political structure. It is also not arguable that Tinubu can defeat Osinbajo in an Open Ballot system, but APC primaries are not going to be an open ballot system where people queue behind their candidates, rather it is going to be an Open-Secret Ballot system. In an open-ballot system, once I vote against you, you know, so I will be reluctant to vote another after assuring you or collecting your money. However, in an Open-Secret ballot, I can assure you that I will vote for you, collect your money yet vote my "heart".

Now on the day of the APC primaries, these are the facts that would be very clear:

Tinubu is too old to govern effectively: With the hindsight of Buhari's challenges, APC would rather go for a younger and much healthier candidate than an old and sick Tinubu. This is a clear advantage that Osinbajo would have. Most of the delegates would be easily swayed towards Osinbajo right inside the ballot cage, where they would thumb-print their ballot, fold it and come out openly to cast it in the ballot box. Mark you, it is going to be the same ballot box for all candidates, so you cannot know who was voted until the ballots are sorted and counted.

Tinubu's bad faith towards Ambode: The bad deed that Tinubu did to Ambode is still fresh in the minds of the governors, both single-term and second-term governors. it is on record that the governors overwhelmingly rejected the direct primaries simply because Tinubu and his men in NASS arranged to have them treated like Ambode. moreso, it was reported that the APC governor's forum led by Atiku Bagudu (who is still in charge by the way), went to Tinubu's residence in Abuja to beg and prostrate to the Jagaban to allow Ambode to complete his tenure, but baba shuns them. Now, he is running after the same Bagudu, even going to the Kebbi Lodge to beg then. They are sure to require their pound of flesh on behalf of Ambode.

Religious sentiments: Since 2015 Nigeria has been governed by a Muslim, Muhammadu Buhari. If another Muslim from the South takes over from Buhari in 2023, the Muslims would have had another 8 years, making a total of 16. Now when power returns to the North, obviously another Muslim would take over for another 8 years. In total, the Muslims would be president from 2015 - to 2039, a whopping 24 uninterrupted years. That is NOT FEASIBLE. Hence, rational as the delegates are, they would avoid such a trap that would easily hand power back to the PDP. The delegates would rather vote for Osinbajo than Tinubu.

Running mate wahahala: We all recall the challenges that Buhari faced in choosing a running mate in 2015. Buhari was under pressure to avoid the Muslim-Muslim ticket in 2015, even with over 10 million Northern votes in the kitty. Tells that with a Tinubu's candidacy, it would be tougher for APC. Firstly, Tinubu does not have the cult following that Buhari commanded in 2015. Secondly, the North would never accept a Northern Christian VP, this is an unwritten law. Adopting such would mean FAILURE in the North. Hence the only option that Tinubu would have is a Muslim-Muslim ticket, which would FAIL woefully at elections. Even APC NEC would advise against such a move. The obvious alternative would be Osinbajo.

Unaccounted Baggages: Accountability is the acceptance of responsibility for one's own actions. It implies a willingness to be transparent, allowing others to observe and evaluate one's performance. Integrity is the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness. Measured on these two words, Osinbajo would beat Tinubu by a clear distance. Firstly, Tinubu has held Lagos to a stranglehold for the past 23 years. He has made sure that his son controls all the key revenue-generating sectors of the state, the numerous toll gates, etc. His daughter controls all the markets in Lagos, his son-in-law is in NASS, and his wife is a senator for life, he receives 10% tithes from Lagos State. These are baggages that Nigeria's state cannot accommodate. Even now, he has closed NURTW in Lagos and handed it over to his cronies. Is this the type of person that Nigeria wants to give power over the nation and national treasury and power?
Responsible delegates would avoid such a person because, when push goes to shove, Nigerians would be better off without such baggages. Hence the Osinbajo appeal would suffice.

Academic and foundational credence: Tinubu's state of origin, early education, age, and birth are all mysteries. Noone knows where he is from. Noone knows his father, no one knows where he got his first school leaving certificate nor his high school certificate nor diploma. All we hear is that he graduated from some University in the USA. There are those that say that his daughter is 61 years old while Tinubu is claiming 70 years old. That is a mystery too many to be overlooked. Hence Osinbajo would come as a sterling candidate to sell rather than a Tunubu with these baggages of unexplained mysteries.

Conclusion: Osinbajo would trounce Tinubu in APC primaries. However, APC may not form the next government, no matter who they field!

AntonVince:
So, despite the humongous economic, security and social challenges among others bedeviling our nation, the presidency should simply be given as a political compensation to those who have "paid their dues" ?

You want to trade the destinies of over 200 million Nigerians just to satisfy the greed-driven cravings of a desperate pee-pooing octogenarian thief.

Oo ni kuure, Ado Doguwa and anyone wishing tbis renowned looter on Nigerians.

Well shall, no bi my mouth yoi go hear say Muslim North cannot vote a Christian North as governor not to talk of VP. This is just poitical grandstanding. Nothing is coming out of it. Tinubu can only go with Muslim-Muslim ticket and that is DOA.
