Wike is a difficult opponent to fight with...


He isn't the kind of person you engage in a direct fight with... you would loose. You would loose badly. Atiku underated and made the same mistake.


Wike is the type of person to avoid any direct confrontation with... if you MUST fight wike you have to do it in a non confrontational manner. Let him not know you even hold grudges.


This is one of the first lessons or experiences I learned when I started out doing business. They are some people you either just leave even when they are oppressing you just never fight directly with them. I don't want to share my personal experience here.


But it's just one of the facts of life. You wan go dey blackmail or threaten wike...how dirty are you willing to go. You want just scatter everywhere.

Dealing with someone like wike you just have to act cool, play the fool and be patient MAYBE with time you can get an opportunity.

Even as tibunu dey there it won't be easy to defeat wike if he wants to fight. Tibunu would eventually defeat him but it would cost him. That's the kind of person wike is. He knows you would defeat him but he is ready to do maximum damage before going down.

Talk more of fubara... who is fubara?🤷

A governor is who you are calling who is Fubara? If I am the Rivers State governor, Wike will not step foot in Rivers. Check out how Obaseki dealt with Oshomole abd his gang of Assemblly men.
Just chase them out of Rivers State. Start with the arrowhead.
Since Sowore published Wike's house in US, have you seen Wike talk about Sowore again?
The best way to deal with a bully is not avoidance, but confrontation.

Tinubu's defeat in 2027 will be so massive that Harvard University will use it as a case study.
Of all the Governors defeating to APC, none chose the path. They were all forced. I know one in the Soth South who still honors with ADC even as APC governor. In that state, elections are determined by late night calls, like Vite ADC for president abd APC for governor.
The South is now ADC from Lagos, through Edo to Cross River. The only governor committed to Tinubu is Fubara. Based on credible information, Tinubu will be betrayed in the South South, with "We go chop you dollar" song. Watch how ADC ticketbin the South South will be hotcakes 🥞.
South East would replicate 2023 template, no need to debate that.
The North now has a very big issue with Tinubu. First is insecurity, second is what they now call "Tinubu's Tax". The goodwill he enjoyed in 2023 is now deflated. With Kwankwaso not joining APC, Tinubu has lost that state.
The bigger is issue for Tinubu in 2027 will be his running 🏃‍♂️ mate. Another MUMU ticket will be defeated, also a Muslim-Christian ticket, let me not talk.

The last kick of a dieing horse.

Tinubu is a goner, with Peter Obi holding South and Atiku holding the North Tinubu and APC will be defeated.

Georgry:
You're a political nonentity, Wike is probably one of the top 5 most powerful politician in Nigeria today, if you think you can take him head on with all his federal might then you must be joking.

What Federal might will save a thief whose evidences of stolen wealth is gazetted. Tinubu will throw him under the bus in less than a week.

We have only one ADC, the one led by David Mark and recognized by INEC. Any other one is a RUSE.

What did I just read, that Wike is threatening to publish an agreement 🤝 reached with Fubara for peace. What gave him that audacity to challenge a sitting governor armed with credible evidence of the looting of Rivers under his government, except that Fubara is a COWARD, who dies many times before his real death.

If I was the Accountant-General of a state, I should have credible information that would hold my principal in checks. If i have such information and I have the power of a governor, my former principal will be at my Beck and call. If after all these opportunities, I am still being harassed by a former governor, I am a "coward of the county".
Let's bring it home, as Chief Executive Governor, Fubara has access to credible evidences of stolen Commonwealth of Rivers State people. For such a person, you have to put the individual in checks.

First, institute a probe of all financial activities from 2015 to 2023. Publish a white paper on it and have it Gazetted with all stolen monies, assets, etc and commence court cases to retrieve them one by one from the thieves.

Secondly, begin marking properties that were obtained without due process for demolition. Use your official power as governor to coerce councillors to impeach any errant LGA chairman. Tell me any councilor or chairman who does not have skeletons in his cupboard.

Push to remove any Chief Justice not in governor's side. First institute audit of all judicial expenses under the CJ. Call him to government house to explain all frauds in the judiciary. If he or she is not ready to play ball, send him/her file to EFCC.,with your current position as an APC governor.
Once you have the CJ on your side, the Assembly can go to hell.

@Fubara wake up and fight. Stop composing music. Use your power sir!

BLOODY TERRORISTS SPONSOR

Please, provided evidence, not media trials. This was how EFCC harassed Okowa, Nigige, Fayose, etc. Meanwhile, the thieves in APC who are looting Humanitarian Support funds are still in office.

Burob:
Ok, so El Rufai will gladly work with Gringory Obi to remove his friend Tinubu from power?
What will gringory offer him, that Tinubu couldn’t give him?

Tinubu betrayed ElRufai 💔 after the latter SINGLE-HANDEDLY handed him the APC ticket.
Go and check, it was ElRufai that stood up against Buhari. He gathered 5 northern governors to help Tinubu get APC ticket against Buhari backed Amaechi.

Thank you Akpabio for listening to God, please also resign from the Senate because you did not win that seat. Otherwise, you are not yet in the right with God. SIMPLE as that. You cannot mock God.

Burob:
The ADC an organization of strange bedfellows, imagine Aregbesola, Amaechi, Atiku , Obi, David Mark & co working together?

I suspect Aregbesola & Amaechi are amongst the APC spies in their midst.

Point of correction, aside Aregbesola the rest were in PDP together for 8 - 12 years of PDP. Even ElRufai.

akpumping7720:
Let me begin by congratulating President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in advance on his victory in the coming 2027 presidential election.

I have said it repeatedly on this platform: the most realistic pathway to an Igbo presidency in Nigeria runs through a sitting South-West president.

Politics in Nigeria—especially when it comes to dealing with the North—requires careful calculation and deep understanding. The Northern political establishment is not easy to outmanoeuvre. With their long-held “born-to-rule” mentality, power is something they believe they are entitled to, and they are often willing to assert it forcefully.

Former President Goodluck Jonathan’s emergence did not happen by accident. It was the product of careful planning and political permutations by Chief Olusegun Obasanjo. Obasanjo understood the health challenges of President Yar’Adua and deliberately positioned Jonathan as vice president. Many within the PDP caucus were unaware of this long-term plan, but Baba knew that the time had come for the goose that laid the golden egg to also have a taste of power.

Today, history appears to be presenting another opportunity—this time in the person of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Why do you think many governors from the Eastern extraction are increasingly aligning with him? Tinubu understands the Northern oligarchy. He has dined and wined with them. He knows their strengths, their fears, and their pressure points. More importantly, he has learnt from the mistakes of leaders like Chief Obafemi Awolowo and Chief MKO Abiola.

Consider the political drama that preceded the 2023 elections. Tinubu played the game masterfully. After becoming president, did you see him repeat those theatrics? No. He had achieved his objective.

Even if Peter Obi had won the 2023 election, would he have been able to restrain the Northern power bloc and their entrenched interests—many of whom control instruments capable of sabotaging the economy? That is a hard question many refuse to ask honestly.

The reality is this: any Igbo man aspiring to lead Nigeria must recognise the moment and align strategically. This is not the time for political isolation or moral grandstanding. It is the time to learn from the man who knows the road—the man who understands who to align with, who to avoid, and how power is truly negotiated in Nigeria.

Politics is not driven by emotion; it is driven by strategy. And those who want power must first understand how it is won.

Watch out brother, even your polling unit will be won by ADC come 2027. Tinubu knows that he is spent and losing hence he is combative with all opposition governors.
Let me give you this secret, of all PDP governors that deceived defect to APC, only Fubara is committed to APC, the rest are what we call bandwagon APC governors. Tinubu is now forcing Bala Muhammed in Bauchi, Mustang in Plateau and Kano governor to join APC, they will join, but will never be committed to APC on presidential elections.
Some, especially second term governors are just MOLES.
Did Fubara not go to Wike and declare "Wike is my leader, I cannot fight my lrader", tell me what is happening now, after regaining power. You can force govers to join APC, you cannot force them to coerce electorate. On the night of elections in the SS, the message will be passed, "Vote ADC for President, vote APC fir goveror".

yarimo:
Incase just a reminder, no INEC polling unit on social media

I guessed your tone has changed from Obi must face primaries? E go do una whin

NakiBlog:
Lol
You say painment.
You said that with LP last time and were did it end. Oh I forget you lots will always blame it on stolen mandate. Less I forget again, shey you guys always win elections online

Since you have already won, why are you posting about ADC on every thread? What happened to AAC, LP, PDP, Accord and other parties. Oh, because OKWUTE is now in ADC, your nightmare has started.

NakiBlog:
When Apc was formed, one would observe that its strategy was to pull out major stake holders of the then ruling party PDP and other strong members of light weight opposition parties into APC and that was very successful.

Another important point to note was that the formation of APC was a merger of different strong and light weight opposition parties and not just politicians jumping into a new party. That merger meant that those other parties no longer exist on its own and has become APC.

This strategy was one of the most brilliant move ever made in the political atmosphere to unseat an incumbent and ruling party.

Fast forward to this new year 2026, we keep hearing coalition but what we see is jumping from one dead party to another. While all major players in the new era of Nigeria politics are seeing the light and joining the APC as a ruling party, major political orphans are jumping into a party that has existed for long without recognition just to make it popular and claim it is a coalition.

It is quite shameful to see that Nigerians are easily brainwashed even when they try to claim they are one of the smartest people in the world. It took years and patience for Tinubu to mastermind the APC, relax and hold the party till his turn and everything fell in place.

Now after removing a sitting president from the then ruling party and now putting the once gaint PDP to rest in peace, some small parties without a form of structure in just one state feel they can come out from no where and take over power because of one man that says he is the political messiah of our time.

Instead of building a party that accommodated him to pull the little weight he pulled in the last election, he once again abandoned the party and decided to join another in the name of coalition.

ADC is dead on arrival because it is not a coalition because it has been existing already for long but happens to be the next party for aggrieved political orphans to lay their tents.

Now tell me, with just one year to the general election, what structure is in place for ADC to imagine winning the election in general.

See Painment, real fear and confusion in all Tinubu supporters. Since yesterday all have been running from pillar to post. Why are you all scared, afterall you have 30 governors and over 70 senators in APC.

DomPerignon:
Giringori believes he has negotiated a future automatic slot as Atiku's running mate.

Atiku is not foolish and will never pick Obi as his running mate for Obi is widely seen as an islamaphobe and a staunch IPOB supporter across the north.

Atiku will be settling for an obscure politician from the South to be his running mate.

These of course are based on permutations that Atiku will clinch the ADC ticket which is not all certain as Buhari's cabal have since saturated the ADC and are keen on seeing Rotimi Amaechi clinch the ticket with an El Rufai as VP. Amaechi has been rumoured to have vowed to do a single term so as to pave way for a northern cabal candidate in 2031.

Note that it was the combo of Tambuwal and El Rufai who lured Atiku to the ADC .

Atiku only agreed because of Tambuwal who had played a Judas role in the past against his friend Wike in the PDP for the benefit of Atiku emerging as the party's candidate in the last elections.

Funny enough, Obidients have now began throwing an Obi/Tambuwal ticket forgetting that this was Wike's plan for 2023 until Tambuwal betrayed him and supported Atiku at the last minute.

If Tambuwal could do that to Wike whom everyone witnessed their unusual close political alliance and friendship for most if their tenures as governors of Rivers and Sokoto, how is this same Tambuwal going to ensure Obi emerges as the ADC flag bearer when Atiku is gunning for same ticket?

Desperation, blind ambition and stupidity has finally seen Obi fall for ADC and northern cabal's trap.

The irony here is that Obi's defection to ADC did not come as a surprise as anyone with at least 2 brain cells knew it will happen and we also knew Obi was reconciling with Atiku to make him his running mate again.

When a politician's next 3 moves are glaringly obvious that shows lack of strategy and direction.

Obi is an open book to all because he is a very pedestrian politician who is so desperate for national relevance. In Nigeria's political scene one must be Machiavellian in approach for there abound many Judases like Tambuwal.

My early prediction for who will be the candidate for the ADC still remains Amaechi with El Rufai as his running mate.

Atiku will contest as he is expected to but he will not announce Obi as his running mate .

Obi will get feelers before the primaries that Atiku had settled for another Southerner to be his running mate and its from there Obi will run away from the ADC.

This defection by Peter Obi has generated heartaches across APC supporters

Point of note and quote on marble:

"ADC is a party where the son/daughter of NOBODY can become SOMEBODY without knowing ANYBODY"

DomPerignon:
Only SS has all its state being ruled by APC.
What does that tell you?
APC under Tinubu isn't the same under Buhari.
Its the ADC that is more like Buhari era APC.

In Edo, Okpebholo and his team will not get 30% for APC. This not a joke.
Delta South abd Central are not voting APC.
Go the Rivers, they will chop Wike and Fubara again. This time, noone can manipulate results.

Odin13:
Mbah the first casualty.. a hardworking governor that might lose his seat for cheer stupidity.
APC must be haram I. East and south

Watch out as the defectors will begin to reflect one by one. Let me go and register with ADC to contest as House of Representative member in my state.

WesleyPepper:
OBJ supporting failures as usual.
Imagine traveling all the way from Abeokuta to support a failed potential vice presidential candidate to Atiku.
Nobody Dey listen to Obasanjo gbedu again 😂

I sense tears in this post. If OBJ was in Bourdillon, it would have been a different story.

gidgiddy:
All depends on if the authorities will allow free and fair elections, something nobody has seen for a very long time

Donald Trump is already breathing on their neck, using the same template they (APC) gave to Obama in 2015.

The saying that the broom they used for the first wife is in store for the second wife comes to mind. Tinubu's alliance with BRICS is a direct affront to the US/West cooperation.

@Bwala, your tears are TOO sweet. Cry more please, you need it as your job is on the line.

Penguin2:
Former governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal, is in Enugu for Obi’s defection. Could there be something brewing between the two?

Also in Enugu is the chairman of ADC, David Mark, and other dignitaries.

Datti Ahmed will now be LP Presidential candidate. I hope he will pick Abure as VP or perhaps Wike as President and Datti Ahmed as vice. Wike used Abure to destroy his only source of influence, now the political bride has left him in quandary.

Kererenke Obi, kererenke Obi

With Peter on the 2027 ballot, either as President or Vice President, the ADC will clear the 11 States of SS and SE. Forget the Defective Governors, from Edo to Cross River, they can only win Gubernatorial elections. As long as Presidential and Gubernatorial elections are on different days, no Governor can change the will of the people.
One thing is sure though, APC will deploy money to induce voters at the polls, and to manipulate results, but that can only happen in few places. Once INEC is able to assure of real and ontime results transmission, it will be game over for triggers.

Nonsense, so the worshippers did not see fresh diggings in the mosque or was the mosque as sand dune?
That bombing was a TAQQYAH decoy to change the narrative about Islamic Terrorists killing Christians.

I am sure MOSSAD is on their case. Next bombing will be total annihilation

Wahala for Emilokun and his crew. 2027 game has started. May the better man win.
All I want to hear is ADC TOP TO BOTTOM.

adenigga:
Members of the Rivers State House of Assembly have returned a N100,000 cash gift from the state governor, Sim Fubara.

The money was transferred to their personal accounts on the instructions of Fubara.

This was disclosed in a statement signed by Hon. Enemi Aabo George, chairman of the House Committee on Information, Petitions and Complaints.


According to the statement: “Today, the 30th day of December 2025, Honourable members of the 10th Rivers State House of Assembly received bank credit alerts of the sum of one hundred thousand naira each.

“The said unsolicited and unapproved amount was transferred on the instructions of the Governor of Rivers State, Sir Sim Fubara, to the personal accounts of members.


“Upon discovery of these unsolicited and unapproved transfers, Honourable members of the House took immediate steps to formally return the said funds to the account of the Rivers State Government.

“As an institution established by law and guided strictly by the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, the Rivers State House of Assembly maintains that all public expenditures must follow due process, including legislative approval.

“The governor, since assuming office in 2025, has consistently drawn from the Consolidated Revenue Account of Rivers State without legislative approval, despite repeated warnings from the House, judgements of the Supreme Court, and in defiance of the Constitution and principles of separation of powers.”


This comes amid renewed hostilities with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.

They Validated Orlandoo shawarmagirl & co Obidient movement will blame Tinubu as usual.

Why are you scared for Tinubu?
2027 is going to be Nigerians (hungry and displaced men and women) versus APC acquired failed Governors.

All I see is a scared crow. Wike is in mortal fear.
No general fights on four war fronts and wins.
- You are fighting PDP
- You are fighting Fubara
- You are fighting Makinde
- You are fighting Rivers APC
- You are fighting Abuja Senator and land owners.
If nobody told you that you are confused, use your common sense for once.

There is a parable that a wife fought the mother in law, they judge the case and she was RIGHT.
She fought sister in Law, they judge the case, she was RIGHT.
She quarreled with the neighbour, they judge the case and she was RIGHT.
She quarreled with the father in law, she was RIGHT.
She fought with the husband, then again she was RIGHT.
It is said that SUCH A WOMAN IS A FOOL.
Because, one day, she will fight the gods and then she would be RIGHT in the grave

LegendHero:
Atiku should stop disturbing sane minds.

Tax reform takes effect by January 1st. All this noise on social media is wasting of productive time.

The same noise you made when DJT commandeered Tinubu on terrorists.
