And that makes him the winner. Sometime we stop reasoning like baby political analyst.

Did you read the reason why it was posted? You have just shown your ignorance. The guy asked if any governor had ever endorsed Tinubu. We are not talking about winning here boy.

What else is endorsement ?Nawaa.

Penguin2:
A link to the their endorsement report?

And when I asked for governors, Sanwolu was exempt. You don’t expect a drug addict buffoon tied to Tinubu apron to do otherwise.

https://punchng.com/northerners-have-no-option-but-to-support-tinubu-says-ganduje/
You want for the other governor's also?

Penguin2:
Tell me one governor who has endorsed any presidential candidate…

When you realize that no governor has endorsed anyone, you will realize the stupidity behind this post in trying to paint the Amaechi candidacy as unpopular.

Junk journalism meant for half brains.

Fools!

Ganduje, Sanwolu, Governor of Borno and that of Niger have all endorsed Tinubi

Munamu:
Many felt bitter that, osibanjo in his declaration speech mentioned that he will consolidate on the achievement of his boss. Could he have said otherwise? When he knows that everyone is falling in line to have buhari's blessing. Besides, his winning the primary election will have to be with the effort of his boss. The more you decide to analyse his declaration, the less you understand.
The 3 months he spent as the acting president can be used to evaluate him. Most Nigerians testified to the tranquility in the government during his reign as the acting president.

The question is why has his boss refused to hand over to him again after those three months? This again brings us to the issue of trust.

farem:
Tell us what electoral value does obj has at his base.
They walloped her daughter right at his ward.
Now tell me how that has reduced him nationally?

Did Obi's daughter ever contest any election?

LibertyRep:
He lost the last election at his Lagos polling unit.

I know he will move after losing his polling booth in the last election. We voted together at VGC lekki and VGC is full of Igbo indigenes like me.

CharlotteFlair:
I'm sick and tired of this mkpurumiri drill! How can you worship Tinubu a known drug baron and addict and still come here everyday to fish for idiots.

Tinubu should be ready to visit the seventh heaven, but he's just catching cruise with his amassed loot.

Have you seen almost all the ambassadors of the western world visiting a drug baron? This story is a stale news. Please, change the topic.

PrinceOfLagos:
See the date of this publication


MAY 19th 2018...

Very old news

Date does not matter. Amaechi don't see himself as an igbo and we are trying to adopt him like we adopted Jonathan.

greatiyk4u:
Odiegwu

2019 fake news

Why is it fake?

ovieigho:
Pay back time !!


Fulani loves loyalty
If you think Tinubu made buhari win 2014 APC primary, you are wrong !

Amaechi did it …

As a matter of fact , Tinubu backstabbed Buhari…

Tinubu is a traitor
He betrayed Ribadu in 2010
He betrayed buhari and Fulanis don’t forgive easily

Without winning a single local government area for Buhari?

Munamoqel:
All south east groups should support ameachi since he has the pmb support then add no nuhu ribadu as VP .this the only southeast Igbo wining tickets . While the Southwest have osinbajo and zulum .if the people.of the south refuse to put their house in order .the ATIKU .will win . remember this post by next year .

He is not an igbo man. That was how they confused us to adopt Jonathan as an igbo man and nicknamed him Ebelechukwu Azikiwe.

Racoon:
Fear power play by northerners. They are always masters of the game.

Tinubu came out from this convention with good deal. I don't know what the noise is all about

spydera:
They have done it again...

Done what again? The guy stepped down for Tinubu's candidate.

spydera:
They have done it again...

Done what again? Do you think Tinubu's candidate was the guy that stepped down? He stepped down for Tinubu's candidate.

MonkeyMods:
You can NEVER be Igbo even in another life!

The guy told you the truth. I am also an igbo but I feel ashamed what our youths like you are doing. Allow the man rest please and let us focus on Obi our best so far

EzegeNdiigbo:
Ya guyz should please stop this childish behavior y'all displaying each an everyday...

It is just too much.

APC Leadership: Adamu Emerges Chair As Govs Defy Buhari On Key NWC.
.


All Progressives Congress (APC) governors have gone against the wish of President Muhammadu Buhari in the choice of persons to man key offices of the ruling party as they produced a consensus list which excluded four out of the five men endorsed by the president.

Though the governors kicked against majority of those nominated by the president, a former governor of Nasarawa State, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, who is on top of the list of five, emerged as national chairman of the ruling party following ratification of his nomination at the national convention held at the Eagles Square, Abuja.



In a 12-page document circulated at the beginning of the convention, the 22 governors of the party named 78 persons for national and zonal positions that were up for grabs after initial micro-zoning. The document was signed by all the governors.

The governors, however, left out a former Senate President Ken Nnamani, a former member of the House of Representatives, Farouk Adamu Aliyu, Ife Oyedele, an engineer and Waziri Bulama, an architect. The four men were tipped for deputy national chairman (South), deputy national chairman (North), national secretary and organising secretary.

In their place, the governors nominated Chief Emma Enuekwu, Senator Abubakar Kyari, Senator Iyiola Omisore, and Suleiman M. Argungu.


The opposition to the four men confirmed Daily Trust’s exclusive story on Wednesday, which reported the scheming by governors and other chieftains to edge out the president’s nominees.

The emergence of the new NWC has officially ended the timeline of the Governor Mai Mala Buni-led Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee, which was inaugurated on June 25, 2020, following the dissolution of the Adams Oshiomhole-led NWC.

Buhari had summoned governors of the party last Wednesday to the state house in Abuja, where it was agreed that the party’s national working committee should emerge by consensus.

Following President Buhari’s intervention, six of the chairmanship aspirants who were in the race with Adamu withdrew on the convention day.

Adamu is from the North-Central where the party had zoned the position of the national chairman.


The six aspirants who stepped down for Senator Adamu are the Minister of Special Duties and Inter-Governmental Affairs, Senator George Akume; a former governor of Zamfara State, Abdullaziz Yari; Senator Sani Musa (Niger-East) and a former governor of Nasarawa State, Senator Abdullahi Adamu.

Others are a former deputy national chairman of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), Saliu Mustapha; a former governor of Nasarawa State, Senator Tanko Al-Makura and Saidu Etsu.

The aspirants made their decision known in a letter dated March 25, 2022 and obtained by Daily Trust on Sunday.

The letter, which was addressed to the chairman, APC Election Su-Committee and signed by Akume reads, “May I kindly refer to the appeal by Mr President for the chairmanship aspirants of our great party to agree to a consensus arrangement wherein our colleague, Sen Abdullahi Adamu is made our consensus candidate for the chairmanship position.”

Senate President Ahmed Lawan and Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State had earlier said unity list would emerge as a guide for the emergence of new officers.


Party adopts new constitution

The convention also ratified and adopted the amended constitution of the party.

The motion for the ratification and adoption of the parry’s constitution was moved by the chairman of the Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee and Yobe State governor, Mai Mala Buni and seconded by Niger State governor, Abubakar Sani Bello.

Umahi, Ayade, Matawalle won’t be ousted over defection – Buni

Delivering a speech at the convention, Governor Buni asked Governors Ben Ayade (Cross River), David Umahi (Ebonyi) and Bello Matawale (Zamfara) and many others who defected to the party from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) not to be afraid of being ousted by the courts.

This followed a High Court judgement which ordered the removal of Governor Umahi from office on the ground of defection to the APC.

Buni said, “Let me reassure those of you whose defections are being challenged in the courts that you have nothing to fear because your defections did not contravene any law.

“You will, by the grace of God, emerge successful and victorious in the superior courts at the end of these litigations. Your wise decision to join the APC along with millions of your supporters shall never be in vain.”

Buni asked party members and leaders not to allow their personal interest override the interest of the party and remain united in order to retain power in 2023.

“It is pertinent to point out that we are conscious of the anxiety among our members for the conduct of the convention to elect substantive national leaders. We are also aware of the rising interests among individuals and groups, especially those with the ambition to aspire in the 2023 general elections.

“This anxiety has, however, translated into some internal wrangling and squabbles recently recorded in the party. Such internal disputes are both normal and common, especially in a growing democracy like ours. The beauty of such disagreements is the ability and resilience to resolve them and emerge out of them stronger.

“l wish to commend Mr President for the excellent leadership exhibited in resolving the seeming contention with ease, and without adverse effects on the party and the convention.

“As we elect new national officials, l call on every member of the party to please support and cooperate with the leaders from wards to the national level. We should please bury our differences and collectively work for the interest and success of our party.

“This is very necessary for us to approach the 2023 general elections with a united front. We can only achieve much in unity, just like the broom, which is our party symbol.

“I am now more confident than ever, that with a population of over 41million registered members and still counting, the APC has the potential and capacity to remain Nigeria’s ruling party, and indeed, Africa’s largest political party,” Buni said.

Presidential posters flood convention venue

Campaign posters of some APC bigwigs seeking the presidential ticket of the party had flooded the Eagle Square, venue of the convention and strategic locations in Abuja.

Daily Trust on Sunday reports that the party’s top shots, whose posters flooded Abuja, are its national leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu; a former governor of Rivers State and incumbent Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State.

Have you ever produced national chairman of a ruling party, something SE used to play football. And party chairman of main opposition at the same time. Vincent ogbulafor of PDP and Ogbonnaya Onu of ANPP. Guy make una just thank Buhari. Una be small pikin for National politics

Why must you tribalistic in everything? It is a balanced share of offices. Every time southeast this and south west that. Why the unhealthy competition? Nigerian youths

Masama:
Abubakar Kyari is not Shettima's godson oh,he even senior Shettima in Borno politics. When he started representing Borno in the national assembly nobody knew Shettima. If anyone can call him his godson then maybe it's SAS that can say that.

He got into the senate for the first time in 2015.

This Tinubu is powerful. This is his convention. With Shetima of Borno's godson the national vice chair(North) and the Omisore the national Sec. And also his boy in Lagos getting the national youth leader.

Why are we obsessed with Tinubu? It is becoming too childish. We are not marketing anybody from the east, but everyday Tinubu this and Tinubu that. Very bad politics.

Buhari intalls the chairman and Tinubu installs the national secretary. To me one one. Buhari is the president. Tinubu holds nothing in APC and is not a governor. To me he is a strong man to still be influencing things from outside

post=111239964:
LegendHero and NGpatriot I hope you remember my prediction more than 9 months ago that APC candidate will be Hon Chibuike Amaechi and Tinubu and his camp will decamp to another party

I am praying they give Amaechi the ticket. It will be very easy for PDP.

Omisore was with Tinubu when he met with the senate and the house this week. So I guess Tinubu is behind him

How wish APC gives Amaechi the ticket. It will be an easy ride for PDP
