Anybody with half a brain should have been circumspect that the article came from The Nation ...

It was a futile attempt to paint a picture of Tinubu's relevance while from reality all Buhari was doing was trying to manage Tinubu per the inevitable.

Just a soft landing for Tinubu is the most he can get .... flagbearer na pipe dream.

since 2015 the werey didn't step into aso rock until 2019 election period when buhari requested for him to be used

Since 2019 buhari didn't call him into aso rock until he by himself went to brief him he wanted to be president (which buhari kept mute on)

This is the first time since 2019 buhari is actually calling him to aso rock because he is about to be used again to ratify all the decision buhari took with his cabal

drlateef:
Even if he will choose a presidential aspirant by consensus, he will be foolish to refuse a popular candidate and pick a losing candidate. For now, the only popular candidate for the presidency all over Nigeria is Tinubu. Buhari will shoot himself on foot if he refuses to pick Tinubu. That will be the end of APC. No house stands on backstabbing and disloyalty.

when has buhari not taken decision contrary to what you all wanted and it remained binding

Is it the unpopular decision of extending buni 3months to almost 2years

Is it the recent refusal to allow the so called candidates go slug out who is more popular?

You would always come to terms with his decision, a Yoruba Muslim have no other choice when superior fulani make decision

It is already clear the consensus he asked NASS to give him is not for fancy, he would use it for apc presidential flagbearer

If anything you should already know that his pattern of consesus doesn't care about who is popular or not

Amaechi candidate must always win

Nothing sweet pass been an observer in the convention and watching fellow observers like drug baron ratifying the names you nominated

MikoB:
Very soon you will be banned again. Ode

pains again

Osinbajo the clown is wasting his time

Make e pain you Wella

Someone that losses his polling unit in apc controlled state

I am happy drug urchins won't say he helped adamu too since nobody when he never help to them

Tinubu backed a candidate that lost, buhari spearheaded the consensus not tinubu

This one na meeting to rub it in

MikoB:
Mere commissioner that will soon become your president! You are such unserious kid.

president in his retirement home when he goes back to Lagos

You are the kid here what political structure does osinbajo have outside been tinubu boy

Or you think sharing 2k for to get group to brand for you is what structure means

Even emefile can do this

Penguin2:
That’s politics for you.

Now he’s there, he wants to consolidate power. He wouldn’t wanna leave in less than six months.

But can Peter Obi win the presidency especially if Amaechi or Osinbajo is APC candidate?

For PDP to have one leg at Aso Rock, they need to midwife their ticket for Atiku.

A repeat of an Atiku/Obi ticket would be an easy victory for them.

bro a good south south man can step in since north may use igbophobia to vote

Wike if you want tuggishnishness, or udom if you want calm yet performing man

I would hate for us to be going fulani again, it's not even a guarantee apc won't rig if they want

Tinubu would be sent out of apc don't forget, and kwanwaso would gulp alot of northern votes yet fail in south which PDP would hold strong

So PDP can tatically win election with a southern candidate

MikoB:
The consesus candidate was present there yesterday, just watch out!

you mean mere commissioner the apron of tinubu whom buhari don't want close to power

Parachoko:
You can keep on deceiving yourself.

if reality is called deceiving myself I love it

If pipedream that all is going well in tinubu plan is your reality so be it

FreeStuffsNG:
In fairness to HE Fayemi the report did not include an outright quote of him directly rejecting the consensus either in his individual capacity or as Chairman of NGF or SW rep at the President's parley with Governors.

However, this disclaimer is tardy, untidy and still not outrightly endorsing the consensus, in fact , that line " the President's priority was the unity of the party and he didn't know about the President endorsing any candidate for Chairman. But that if indeed the President has expressed such a view" give credence to the earlier report that the consensus is 'iffy' to him. For someone at such meeting where the consensus was reached, that remark leaves much to be desired and the "but the President that he knows is a democrat and those who do not share the view may of course contest." just muddled it all.

He is talking tongue in cheek and if he was not physically present at that meeting, perhaps it could make sense.

Right now, the verdict of the media is right and this press release seems like an reluctant afterthought he needs to avoid a confrontation with the President.

Sincerely,in my opinon after reading the media report and this press release, it is fair to state that he is not happy about the consensus and as a politician that he is, his reason is not far fetched; HE Fayemi , more likely, lost out in the power game

he is happy you are the one not happy

learn to speak for yourself no be fayemi go speak for you

Fayemi belongs to the president camp that supports adamu so how was he played out

Parachoko:
Go check your post when the Governor of Niger State took over the party affairs in Abuja

You were all over the place about how Buni will deal with people when he gets back, about how he is going to shift the election date when he gets back etc

Amechi candidate? Is this what you will be consoling yourself with now?

na una dey cry now

My own goal is that Amaechi continue to have anapc NEC loyal to him whether it's buni or adamu

That's all that matters, you can hold onto the straw of having convention, but who the outcome of the convention favour?

ityP:
No truer words than this tbh. That is why Buhari is insisting on his candidate. When that candidate emerges, he will be able to do and undo come primaries. Tinubu should start preparing to decamp to maybe the new party that Kwankwaso and others formed. It's the best thing for him

the day buhari new excos would certify that presidency has been microzoned from general south to a specific south that is when it would be officially over for him

Frigga13:
Before this

Yoruba people were online and social media with noise ..
once Buhari raise Tinubu hand is over .. Na that one dey burst me pass . Seunmg..

Tinubu is Jagaban of Africa

The only Nigerian kingmaker

Buhari Godfather And Apc National Leader

Tinubu brought Jonathan Government down . How?

Tinubu slayers of igbos and pdp . Belike Na igbos Dey slay am now..

All this while, Asgard keep telling Yoruba people dey truth and reality, but they always believe propaganda..
Buhari is a dullard , Buhari is a dullard .. osibanjo Na the main person

Now who be dullards for the country..

When Oshiomole coup happened .. we Dey loud say Tinubu Dey cry.. Yoruba day Na kingmaker.. to believe reality dey hard Yoruba

See today .. Buhari just Dey avoid Tinubu.. those cozy me and you relationship with pictures no Dey come again..
those kind London visit no Dey happen again

E change fast..

Na Yoruba mouth .. Na him be their undoing .. media lies and hype .. propaganda

But Yoruba believe say Na igbos be their problem.. think say hatred and bitterness go give them power

Tinubu Must Contest!

Must! Walahi .. Must.

Shehi North have 50million votes and ganduje 40 million
2024 yoruba go wake

Power to the people

Power returns North.

na cowardice dey worry Yoruba man

To run or challenge something Yoruba man no get that liver

Dem prefer to dey console themselves dey shift goal post

Buhari spit for their face them go say na water he wan use baff them

Buhari match their leg Dem go say he dey kill ant

Buhari cut their leg Dem go say Dem no too need am before

Parachoko:
You were all over Nairaland about how Buni will postpone the election, now you have change your mouth.

postpone no be convention would never hold

Keep consoling yourself, it doesn't change the fact amaechi candidate is 90% through as next chairman

According to one of the party leaders from the South-West, who spoke on condition of anonymity
I am happy na tinubu people they see am themselves

Akeredolu, sanwo olu weren't even available yesterday because of bitterness

Make we finish consesus NEC officially first

Presidency won't be outright consesus but tactical one

Because you have to take the contest away from tinubu zone to achieve this

Another whipping into line meeting from buhari to accept all the zoning formula and consesus

seunmsg:
Serious compromise on all sides. Adamu, Omisore and the barring of political appointees from voting at the convention based on the newly signed electoral act despite the backdoor high court judgement. It is well. We are observing the situation closely.

Adamu yes, omisore not yet confirmed until Saturday

No barring of political appointees if they can basically be observer at the convention

Everyone is basically going to be the same observer since it's consesus and not voting

LordviccoDaGuru:
Tinubu has been thrown into dust bin, there's nothing like arrival of APC National leader Tinubu on the list

no be lie

That shilt vex buhari

Vixlot:
No consensus

there is

This is ideally the normal protocol that should be accounted for

When it gets to this point a motion would now be ruled that consesus should be adopted to save time

Don't forget apc technically didn't sell form again, so you can't do election when form wasn't sold

LordviccoDaGuru:

tinubu can't look buhari eye ball to eye ball again

Deja Vu

Dude knows it always end in tears and been dumped

Op, how do you call the meeting consulting when buhari has taken all the decision going into the convention

It's more like spelling it out where everyone should belong

omenkaLives:
The biggest masquerades always come out last to the admiration of jaded observers. But ipobic dolts don't know this principle and were already makin a whole lot of noise, saying Tinubu et al have been used and dumped.

The worse thing that could ever happen to any human is being an ipob member or supporter. Once you become any of those, your brain ceases to function and you start acting like a deranged humanoid.

Smh for Okoros.

tinubu has been used and dump time to re-use him again

No be only him Dem invite for the meeting

even tinubu can't look buhari in the face again

You can tell he doesn't want to be there

The only founding father here that is actually been respected is the one that drafted the new Chairman on the party

The others are just clowns ready to re-used as a routine every four years

The only founding father here that is actually been respected is the one that drafted the new Chairman on the party

Another four years is here to re-use some people and dump them again, you can tell they are already tired of the result

Ttalk:
Next is to remind the political appointee of the new electoral Act that barred them from contesting

which political appointee is contesting on Saturday to begin with?

There is no election on Saturday just confirmation of consensus names

Political appointees are invited to observe it just like other delegates that would fold hand to observe

EmirGold:
Amaechi is next president according to braind**d and usel*ss beerfraud p*gs

he pain am

The memo says amaechi can attend as observer

BTW none of the delegates would even be voting, they would be observing coronation of amaechi members

J

Nonpartisan1:
Amaechi is cumming

Amaechi doesn't need to attend the "convention" when na him candidate he give them to annoint

He can attend as observer if he wants according to the memo

Infact everybody go be observer that day including delegates because no body is voting

You must think Nigerians are fools

The drug Lord isn't even a real Muslim to begin with then you want him to switch from been a fake Muslim

Is this a joke to you, who would buy that

MikoB:
https://punchng.com/breaking-apc-bars-political-appointees-from-voting-at-national-convention/?amp, your Amaechi will not be able to participate on Saturday and most likely in the presidential primaries, or else he resigns

I told you before it makes no difference

He has the board he needs so what would he be doing in a convention that is just ratification of already unified lists

BTW the Apc memo says they can attend as observers which is basically what almost all delegates would be that day

My advice is he doesn't even go sef to avoid eliminators
