fkaz: [size=16pt]iGBO KE, Iro o. i dont care about Tinubu, i care for real change, APC has to use every legal strategy in the book to win. Osibanwo is a yoruba, so who appeals to the igbos or Southerners? Remember the distrust by igbos of a hausa and yoruba leader, we have to represent their interests to gather their votes, yorubas are less sentimental about the tribe of the leaders, as long as he is a performer, the south on the other hand has been sidelined for long they dont trust yoruba and hausa, we could have allowed amaechi. This decision by APC leadership is very very faulty as far as im concerned.[/size] 1 Like |

Comsol: Well, don't forget he is used to driving the FULANI BORN TO RULE around. EL-RUFAI came to mind. It's difficult to shelves slave mentality even if you are a Governor. All of this people is about personal ambition. Not intrest of the country. 1 Like |

iGeneral:I agree with your analysis. Osinbajo comes with no baggage unlike Amaechi. He has more electoral value than Amaechi because he has RCCG as his base plus other churches who have close affinity with RCCG like Winners Chapel and others. This are groups that have membership across Nigeria SE & SS inclusive. |

APC Presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari has chosen erudite scholar, former Attorney General of Lagos state, and Pastor with the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo as his running mate for next year's general election. Professor Yemi Osinbajo is a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, SAN and Senior Partner in the Law firm of Simmons Cooper Partners. Yemi Osibanjo is a professor of law and was the head of department of Public Law at the University of Lagos (1997-1999). His tertiary education was at the University of Lagos and the London School of Economics and Political Science obtaining the LLB and LLM degrees respectively. Previously served as the Special Adviser to the Attorney General of Nigeria (1988-1992), he later became the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice of Lagos State in 1999 reappointed for a second term in 2003. During the period of his public service, he commenced the Lagos State justice reform project. A prominent feature of that project was the establishment of the Directorate for Citizens’ Rights (DCR) which provides free legal services and legal representation to indigent citizens of the state. This initiative gave a voice to many who would otherwise not have a way to access their rights. Prior to that appointment, Osinbajo, a Professor of Law, was the Head of Public Law at the Faculty of Law, University of Lagos. He is also the Ethics Adviser to the Advisory Board of the African Development Bank and is a non-executive Director of Citibank. He has served in various roles within the United Nations, United Nations Centre on Transnational Corporations, the United Nations African Institute for Crime Prevention, the International Criminal court for Rwanda in Arusha, Tanzania, the department of Peacekeeping operations and the United Nations Peace Operations in Somalia. Prof. Osinbajo is Co-founder & Board Member Convention on Business Integrity and the Justice Research Institute Ltd. In 2007, Prof. and his wife Oludolapo founded “The Orderly Society Trust”, a non-governmental organization that is dedicated to the promotion of Christian ethics and orderliness. Professor Osinbajo has authored, co-authored and edited several books and publications including “The Unification and Reform of the Nigerian Criminal Law and Procedure Codes” ; “Law Development and Administration”; “The Annotated Civil Procedure rules of The Superior Courts in Nigeria”; and “Cross Examination: A Trial Lawyer’s Most Potent Weapon”.

Well if this choice has been truly confirmed then this affirms why Pastor E.A Adeboye has been hammering on every member of RCCG getting the voter's card. Even 2 sundays ago my Regional Pastor asked everyone who has his voters card to display it in church just before service ended. hmmmm this is getting very interesting. 3 Likes |

I wrote this earlier in the year...... That the religion card that PDP is playing is double-edged....it can also work against the party. Now PDP is in doldrums and depression....they've lost their most potent tool against APC...Religion. Also, the Prof has no dirty baggage for PDP to walk with...... 1 Like |

We have to wait for the official confirmation from Bhuari before we can properly conclude. The country and the people purporting to lead us are bunch of jokers no wonder a lot of comedians are showing up to contest for political office. We need a strong opposition but APC is just not anywhere near a truthful opposition. Bhuari candidacy is about power shifting to the north. |

chrisbaba1:You are wrong there. There is no how you can convince those in the SS and SE to vote against GEJ enmass. No bigotry but the electorate in those regions have their minds made up. They see GEJ as one of their own even if he is not doing anything for them. Like I said before, I mean no bigotry, in fact, some of my best friends are from the SE/SS but let's call a spade a spade, they won't vote for an hausa man even if you make the vice from their region. The most important thing is to ensure the SW is secured. If APC can get even 20% from the SE/SS and ensure PDP do not get more than 20% in the SW then they will win the election ( my thought). |

Lyoncrescent:During the 2011 elections, ACN only fielded Ribadu because they had to. They knew they couldn't get a win across the country especially with the collapse of talks with Buhari. They concentrated their resources on winning SW which they did to convince Buhari that he, Tinubu, is no push over. The only reason Ribadu won in Osun was because Aregbesola needed to convince the PDP that his victory at the electoral panel was not a fluke. Can you imagine PDP winning the presidential election in Lagos with the standing of Tinubu and Fashola if it were not orchestrated by Tinubu. What Buhari had counted on was that he can win without merging with Tinubu. If he Buhari had won in the North and ACN had won in the south West, PDP will not have enough votes in the South & SE to beat the votes he will garner in the North. Tinubu saw through him and decided to go to sleep during the presidential election. That is what humbled Buhari into the merger we have today. Today Jonathan doesn't stand the chance of winning in the South West and the North the votes in the middle belt and SE maybe divided leaving him with only the SS. 1 Like |

Buhari just confirmed his political naivity once again, last time he went to the polls with a yoruba tele-pastor he lost woefully and started spewing rubbish from his mouth, and this pastor also joined him to call for violence because they lost. now he has been GIVEN another yoruba pastor who is less known than the first as his failure mate. Not yet satisfied, he also accepts a disenfranchised, double disgruntled, shortchanged and displeased last term Rivers Governor who has lost his glory in his own state to be his campaign manager. my my my !! this guy is just so good in digging his own grave ![]() |
