2023: The intrigues and plans to stop Osinbajo

By Isa Adamu

With a little more than two weeks to the Special Convention of APC which holds on May 30th, it is becoming clearer and clearer that some of the presidential aspirants in the party only got into the race, not to win the nomination, but to stop Yemi Osinbajo by all means and make a way for Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The mastermind of this scheme is Bola Ahmed Tinubu himself. Asiwaju is so desperate to clinch the party’s ticket that he is doing everything under the sun to stop the VP’s soaring acceptability across the nation. He believes that Prof Osinbajo is the only one standing between him and the nomination.

First, Tinubu and his supporters spent weeks spreading malicious and false stories about the Vice President soon after his declaration on Monday, April 11. When that didn’t deter the VP or erode his brand as the man to beat, the former Lagos governor devised a new scheme in which he sponsored 10 people, including two ministers, to jump into the presidential race on condition that they would step down for him a day or two before the Convention. The idea is that when the 10 ‘aspirants’ announce that they’re stepping down for Tinubu, the announcement may create a momentum for him and that could motivate delegates to support him.

The 10 sponsored aspirants are:

1. Senator Godswill Akpabio

2. Senator Rochas Okorocha

3. Comrade Adams Oshiomhole

4. Prof. Ben Ayade

5. Prof Emeka Nwajiuba

6. Senator Ken Nnamani

7. Ahmed Sani Yerima

8. Mrs. Uju Ohneye

9. Ajayi Borifice

10. Dimeji Bankole

You may have noticed that these 10 ‘shadow’ aspirants have not even gone around the country to meet and consult the delegates as the serious aspirants do. Osinbajo himself has visited over 20 states in the last four weeks, meeting with governors, traditional rules, party members and, of course, the delegates. Where has Oshiomhole or Ahmed Yerima been to? Have you seen Okorocha or Ken Nnamani consult anybody?

Nigerians, be wise!

NO, IT IS NOT NIGERIANS SHOULD TAKE THE ADVICE TO BE WISE. RATHER, YOURSELF. SHOULD TAKE YOUR OWN SPECULATION PILL.

Your speculative falsehood holds no water. Osinbajo at no time was any form of threat to the ABAT that made him. He is nowhere near it. Your imagination could run as wild as it can take you. At most an unfounded and ultimately speculative NONSENSE..

The Asiwaju does not need to sponsor anyone against a minion and political nonstarter like the demunitive Prof.

Prof. Yemi Osinbajo DOES NOT POSSESS THE POLITICAL CLOUT OF ABAT AND YOU CAN TAKE THAT TO ANY BANK ANYWHERE ANY DAY.

You made no POINT and no BASIS for the very EMPTY rhetoric you misrepresented, full of foul thoughts and devoid of substance.

Let me help your tiny brain here. One of the prerequisites for the presidency on APC platform happens on mandatory DELEGATES SPONSORS ENDORSEMENT which ABAT got from all over the country in RECORD time. 360 same day.

HOW MANY HAS YOUR LITTLE HERO AT NOW. COULD YOU POSSIBLY ASCERTAIN IT IS ANYWHERE NEAR WHAT TINUBU HAS SAME DAY SAME SPOT?.

You people and your principal who bites the fingers that made him are living the fool's paradise. Your treachery is foolhardy and won't be long before it dawn's on your DUAL CHARACTERS.

God has a way of dealing with backsliders backbiters who supplants benefactors and betrays own people.

YOUR Prof. Osinbajo is too SMALL for ABAT. Not on same level, politically. Not even close. Walls apart.

Hopefully, that sinks into the fraud containers you people calls head.

I love that. The guy is living in fools paradise. Perhaps mkpurum mirin is distorting his sight and hearing. He is probably intoxicated with tramadol. Oshinbajo is just being given courtesy in those 20 states. If oshibajo gets up to 500 delegates, he should thank his ancestors.

Victim mentality. On whose behalf is the op writing this epistle?

THE CABALS ARE SCHEMING SERIOUSLY TO CALUMNIATE AND MISREPRESENT JONATHAN OBASANJO FALAE AND EVEN Osinbajo TOWARDS 2023 ELECTIONS..
FULANISATION AND ANARCHY ARE AT FULL GEAR AND SPEED NOW.
THERE MUST BE RESTRUCTURING ON OR BEFORE 2023.
BUHARI, LAWAN AND GBAJA ARE HEREBY WARNED. THE CABALS IN THE PRESIDENCY, THE NW EMIRS, THE SULTANATE, FUNAM AND BMF-BOKOISWA ARE THE SPOILER AND HAVE TURNED JONATHAN INTO A RAT SCATTERING AND WASTING THE BEANS IF IT CANNOT EAT THEM.

To me,the only three (3)serious contenders I know and can see that have been consulting and canvassing for supports from delete and other people for APC Presidential ticket are (1) Tinubu (2) Amaechi and (3) Osibanjo.if I may ask,how are the others In the race planning to win the election which they spent 100million Naira to buy the interest and nomination forms...am now believing the writer that something fun is cooking out.

God bless Nigeria

Obasanjo is the last Christian to rule Nigeria

Obasanjo? GEJ was actually a.....Christian .

Your writeup is filled with make-belief. Many of the candidates you mentioned also have long ambition to become president.
