APC won't get more than 1000 votes in SE and SS combined.



Anything to finish Tifnubu's money is okay by me though

You are a kid in politics and how it works. You expect APC not to get 25 percent in a states they have governor and in states they have people like Magnus Abe, Amaechi and Silver?
YOU are indeed a kid.
I pray we all be alive to see magic you guys are expecting to perform.

I love this man. He is showing the trade unionism in him. Tit for tat. He fits them. Tinubu should also bring on board Kayode, anyway Keyamo is equal to the task.

Dr. SKC Ogbonnia

Not the same as Ogbonnaya Onu. this is a different Onu.

Fake news. This is not Ogbonnaya Onu.

Kurutinto:
seun, mynd44, lalasticlala

Rule 8. Posting false news on NL. Magnus Abe is now in SDP and not APC as shown in the banner

It does not matter. He is supporting Tinubu for president but contesting election in another party. He made it clear.

NaijaRoyalty:
Old picture , Fake News

Magnus Abe, whose picture is on the banner has since dumped Tinubu and he's now SDP governorship candidate

Tinubu and his supporters are losers and shameless liars

Dumped APC to contest but still supporting Tinubu.

Malory:
Then be ready to become the butt of our jokes. Stick to issue based campaign if you don't want us to trace your chimpanzee bloodline.

Don't go after this man. He will finish you. He is used to war and a tough skin

Amotolongbo:
I wouldn’t blame Abdulahi but the pastor who invited him to his church and members who attended the service.

Most of these pastors are just after making money to alleviate them from poverty and can do anything for money

You are not a Christian and I am you have never entered a church in one year to worship.

Subject to ratification by President Muhammadu Buhari, Plateau State Governor, Simon Lalong, will co-ordinate the presidential campaign council of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, as director-general.
His deputy will be former Edo State Governor and ex-National Chairman of the APC, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole.
In the opposition PDP, crises stemming from the presidential primaries and nomination of running mate has paused efforts to raise a campaign council.
Sources told Vanguard, yesterday, that APC presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu; his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima; and APC governors settled for the duo after a meeting in Abuja on Monday.
Indeed, Kaduna State Governor, Malam Nasir el-Rufai, after the meeting told journalists that a director-general had been picked for the APC  presidential campaign council but refused to disclose the person.
The governor said President Buhari and National Chairman of the APC, Dr. Abdullahi Adamu, would be briefed before a formal announcement.
[03/08, 12:16] Kevin: This is a delegation of the Progressive Governors Forum, led by our chairman, Dr Atiku Bagudu, and the party represented by the national secretary.
“We came to report on an assignment given to us by our presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and his running mate to begin the broad consultations and develop a structure for the presidential campaign council. We have done some work on it.
We have briefed the candidate and his running mate and inputs have been taken and our hope is that in the shortest possible time, the candidate will consult more with the party leadership and brief Mr President and get his input and then we formally unveil the presidential campaign council.
“A decision has been taken on the director-general but other positions in the campaign council are still being discussed. The president and the national chairman and National Working Committee will be briefed before a formal announcement,” el-Rufai said.
Adams Oshiomhole, who attended the meeting, was reported to be the director-general of the APC presidential campaign council but he denied it.
A top party source told Vanguard yesterday that Governor Simon Lalong is the choice of the governors for campaign council D-G, with Oshiomhole as his deputy.
Sources said the choice of Director-General initially oscillated between Oshiomhole and Lalong.
Those pushing for Lalong argued that the APC needs a Northern Christian as D-G to assuage the feelings of Northern Christians in the party, following the Muslim-Muslim ticket of the party.
One of those earlier mentioned in connection with the D-G position was Governor el-Rufai.
Party insiders said the APC resolved to appoint a Christian as D-G of the campaign council against the backdrop of misgivings trailing the Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket. Governor el-Rufai is a Muslim.
Keyamo, Alake, Onanuga head media team
Meanwhile, the media department of the APC campaign council has taken shape.
“The  media department of the APC campaign council will be run by a triumvirate of directors, made up of Dele Alake as director of strategic communications, Bayo Onanuga, director of media and publicity, and Festus Keyamo, director of public affairs and chief spokesman,” a top member of the Tinubu team told Vanguard, yesterday.
Reconciliation, campaign  council top agenda as PDP BoT, others meet
In the PDP, post-presidential primaries and nomination of vice presidential candidate crisis has paused efforts to raise a campaign council.
Some PDP governors and supporters of Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State have reportedly listed conditions to back Atiku.   Wike came second in the presidential primaries; he was the choice of the selection committee for the vice-presidential slot but Atiku chose Delta State Governor, Dr Ifeanyi Okowa, a development that has been raising dust in the main opposition party.
Thus, barring last-minute changes, reconciliation efforts and the setting up of the Presidential Campaign Council, will top the agenda as members of the PDP Board of Trustees, BoT, and National Working Committee, NWC, meet today.
Vanguard  gathered in Abuja yesterday that top members of the party have been holding  series of meetings to calm frayed nerves ahead of the meeting.
A member of the party’s BoT who pleaded anonymity so as not to “pre-empt the outcome of the meeting” said so much work had gone into the process.
The source said: “We will be meeting later tomorrow (today) to iron out all of these issues. They are not as serious as some of you in the media are trying to make it look.
“Yes, there are issues as is normal in politics. Our respected governors irrespective of the presidential aspirants they supported during the primaries are interested in the victory of the PDP in 2023 and have resolved to support the party to achieve this goal. Our collective survival as not only politicians but also Nigerians depend on this.
urvival as not only politicians but also Nigerians depend on this.
“The process of reconciliation is an ongoing one and will continue. We are all aware of the fact that time is not on our side and we need to expedite action on the setting up of the presidential campaign council.
“We need everybody on board in order to have a robust campaign. That is why we want to bring the aggrieved persons to the table, address their grievances and move on. It is our hope that by the middle of this month at the most, our campaign team will be fully on ground.”
Contacted, Mazi Paul Ibe, Media Adviser to the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, said the candidate and party leaders are working assiduously towards resolving all outstanding issues.
He said: “His Excellency, Atiku Abubakar, as you already know is a committed party man who is interested in the unity of the party ahead of the 2023 elections and beyond. Discussions are ongoing and we are confident that we will put all of this behind us and make progress. “
Kachikwu appoints Kunnu as campaign spokesman
Elsewhere, the presidential candidate of African Democratic Congress, ADC, Mr. Dumebi Kachikwu, has appointed a broadcast professional, Mr. Adeniyi Taiwo Kunnu, as the spokesman of his 2023 campaign organization.
Kunnu, who holds both Bachelors and Master of Arts Degrees in Literature-in-English from Lagos State University, Ojo, and the University of Lagos, Akoka, Lagos, is currently a doctoral student of Literature-in-English at the University of Abuja.
He has held professional positions in both public and private sectors, including Lecturer, Department of English and Literature, Lagos State University, LASU, Ojo (2022), Researcher, Analyst, Training and Development Officer at Lagos Talks 91.3 FM, Ikoyi, Lagos (2021 till date), Head of Operations at IKD 106.1 FM, Ikorodu, Lagos (2020 – 2021), Head, News and Programmes, Roots TV, Abuja (July –September 2019) and Senior News and Current Affairs; Programmes Producer & Presenter, Nigeria Info, 99.3, Victoria Island, Lagos (August 2018 – June 2019

I am a south east Christian and know where my vote is going to.

Words of wisdom. But instead of listening, he will be abused. Time will tell again.

kingjis:
You are very silly

Peter obi no dey give shishi

He said it

Do close your gutter mouth

Lol

Must you resort to using bad words?

A masterpiece.

IgOga:
I am not concerned about Obi and whatever spin he puts on the Biafran agitation to get to Aso Rock. I am concerned about two things:

1. What will happen if/when Obi loose the election to Tinubu or Atiku in 2023? With the level of e-violence from his supporters would they even be able to take defeat

2. How will Nigeria deal with a wave of mental health crisis that may ensue if /when Obi loose the election? Many misguided young people think Obi has a magic formular to make their life better. Of course he doesn't but the illusion is strong and the author is right in his assertion that they follow Obi like it's a religion.....Obi loosing 2023 election would mean thousands if not miliions of Obi believers loosing all hope in Nigeria and perhaps in the world.....

Exactly. This is also my concern.

jerseyboy:
Bad news for APC everywhere

You believe every nonsense

Totilopussylick:
Fake news

Fake account

And you believed Nkem Owoh?

MadeInTokyo:
Oshiomole in his usual mad man character will do more damage than good to Tinubu Presidential campaign, if he doesn't control his utterances and reckless press statements

Not out all. He will give it to you guys bumper to bumper. Tinubu should also appoint kayode the campaign spoke person.

RealLagosBoy:
Breaking: APC offered Nollywood vetran Peter Edochie 50M to endorse Tinubu, he rejected the money at the mention of “Tinubu” and rightly walked out of the meeting.

Report stated,that he warns nobody should ever come to him for APC campaign, that he can't trade the life and wellbeing of Nigerians for just 50M, Am not “Zack Orji” my name is “Peter Edochie” Ebube Dike of Africa

According to news report from main market Onitsha.

Penguin2:
Did I see Sanwolu?

Who is this in the middle of the encircled area?

And hey, from yesterday, the report has been that Tinubu will meet with “APC Governors” and not “A Committee” of APC governor.

Where did you get your own information and what committee are they?

You believe sensational news media reports. That guy is not Sanwolu. You live in Nigeria and you are taking in every thing dished out by news medias

EMMNIG:
Please Nairalanders help count how many APC GOV. Attend the meeting.
Is there any of the following State Governor ;

Cross River,
Ebonyi,
Kogi,
Ondo,

Please help me Check oooooo.
Or is it only 6 APC Governor we now have,

Or is it a sign of Fallout

Or Lackluster of Tinubu turn.

Stop all these conspiracy theories. There is none. The committee set up for the purpose presented there report and only members of the committees attended. Did you even see Sanwolu there? He will also work against Tinubu if others are doing so according to you?

Penguin2:
Where is Umahi?

Where is Uzodimma?

Where is Ayade?

Where is Akeredolu?

Where is Fayemi?

Where is Oyetola?

Where is Dapo Abiodun?

Where is Yahaya Bello?

Where is Simon Lalong?

Where is Mai Mala Buni?


Tinubu is on a long journey but his brainless herd of fools keep living in denial.

There is a committee set up for this purpose, and the committee presented there reports. Those you pointed are not members of the committee. Did you see Sanwolu?

IamAtikulate:
If you think 71 per cent of youths registered to vote for old men, then you are deceiving yourself.

Congrats, Peter OBI

Other political parties don't have youths. Your thinking is naive and childish.

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, yesterday met with Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governors and other stakeholders of the party, who coordinated his campaign for presidential ticket.
The meeting was held behind closed doors at the Rivers State Governor’s Lodge, Asokoro in Abuja

Sources in the party said the meeting focused on the post presidential primary and the crisis rocking the party over vice-presidential slot.  
The meeting, it was gathered, resolved demand for sacking of the PDP national chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, as the only condition for the camp to work with the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abukar.

A source, who was part of the meeting confided in our reporter that attendees agreed not to leave the party but give condition of removing Ayu for supporting the party at the polls. 

“The current power configuration has made PDP a regional party. What are we going to use to campaign in the South when there is nothing for them in this arrangement?” the source said. 
A member of the PDP Board of Trustees and North Central Coordinator of the Wike Presidential Campaign, Prof Jerry Gana, who spoke briefly after the meeting, which lasted for over an hour, said, “This is the first meeting we are holding with all our candidates in the states after the primaries. We are united are one.
“We know that developments will unfold and when they do, we shall brief Nigerians.”

Another source said the meeting reviewed what transpired during the presidential primary and what their next line of action should be since no one has deemed it fit to sit down with Governor Wike.
Those at the meeting include Governors Seyi Makinde of Oyo, Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia, Samuel Ortom of Benue and Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu.

Former PDP governors also attended the meeting. They are Donald Duke (Cross River), Gabriel Suswam (Benue), Olusegun Mimiko (Ondo), Seriake Dickson (Bayelsa) Ibrahim Idris (Kogi) and Jonah Jang (Plateau

He is indirectly referring to Tinubu

You believed fake news

OP, you are an alien. This election is the worst ever in Nigeria in terms of religion and ethnicity.

Nwabueze22:
Devil Umaru of Ebonyi state the day of judgement is fast approaching

He is actually a good governor. The best performing governor in the south east and among the best in Nigeria. So I don't know why you are wishing him ill luck.

Kurutinto:
Ok, buy sniper and keep aside. E go shock u las las

So in all your imaginations, you think Obi will win a presidential election. Nawaa for some people.

Nawaa for people. Atiku attacked Tinubu first, and he is expected to keep quiet

Ferdinandu:
Atiku wanted to copy PO by releasing figures anyhow but he failed woefully F9 minus
