APC NASS Members Disappointed By Tinubu’s ‘dollar Rain’ During Meeting by murecool(m): 6:01pm On Mar 18, 2022 |
Senators got $3000k each, Representatives $2000k
They expected at least $10,000 each
How Naira rain caused fight between Ondo, Ekiti Obas Reports have emerged that the recent visit of presidential aspirant, Bola Tinubu, to the National Assembly, left disappointment and sour taste in the mouths of some of the legislators. Tinubu recently paid a ‘plea’ visit to the All Progress Congress, APC, lawmakers in support for his presidential bid. Those who expected that the Asiwaju Tinubu’s presidential campaign would be an unrelenting distribution of raw cash along the way, may not be wrong after all. But don’t tell that to the members of the ruling APC caucus who received the former Lagos State Governor. Two days ago, Wednesday March 16, 2022, the All Progressives Congress caucus in the House of Representatives received the former Governor but now they could be heard expressing disappointment that what they were given as “kolanut” for the meeting was disappointing. Some members of the National Assembly who confirmed this to Quest Times said “most members expected at least $10,000 each, so there is some sense of disappointment that Reps got only $2,000 and Senators got only $3,000.” A member who was disgusted by the whole thing said “the shameless way some of the NASS members especially Representatives were complaining that they expected more from Asiwaju is so bad, coming from elected representatives of the Nigerian people.” Media reports had relayed that Tinubu visited the National Assembly to address the APC caucus in the Senate and House, and got a voice endorsement during the House of Representatives meeting. The meeting with the Senators didn’t have such a ringing endorsement however, but some of the members may have been attracted to the meeting and joined the “voice endorsement” in the hope for at least $10k. “But now, some of them are feeling short-changed, even though they collected their portions of the medium dollar rain.” This is not the first time that a consultation meeting by Asiwaju and the attendant sharing of cash will leave behind it sour tales. It happened not too long ago when the former governor visited traditional rulers in Ekiti and Ondo states not too long ago. How Tinubu’s Naira rain tears apart Ondo Monarchs In Ondo State specifically, the cash left behind “a wide gulf between the minority Class A kings and the majority 130 Crowns in the Sunshine State, who belong to the B and C grades.” According to a journalist from the state; “the Presidential aspirant and former Governor of Lagos State famous for keeping cash in bullion vans, Tinubu brought sacks of Naira as homage to the royal fathers in their domains. His entourage’s first port of call was Ondo South Senatorial District, where they met the Obas at an Events Centre in Okitipupa. Below is the narration from the journalist: After exchanging pleasantries and declaring his intention to contest the 2023 Presidential Election, Tinubu’s aides were said to have rolled in millions of Naira notes stacked in Ghana-Must-Go bags, for the kings to share. N30m was allocated to each of the three senatorial political zones. Whereas things went according to plan under the supervision of HRM Olugbo in the South, what obtained in Central and North Senatorial Districts were outright row and chaos. A cold war indeed! In Akure, 18 Monarchs met Tinubu in the Palace of the Deji of Akure, but only 3 of them are Grade A while 15 are in B and C categories. Surprisingly, we learnt from insiders that only a meagre N5m was doled out to the 15 rulers to share while the chunk was kept by the few three senior monarchs. To worsen the situation, no information on the actual largesse was given to the second class Obas. Rage then set in and the N5m offered, by a popular politician in Ondo State, was reportedly dumped at the doorstep of the Paramount ruler of Akure land, the Deji. The protesting royals were said to have staged a walk out without collecting the money. A similar ugly incident transpired in the North Senatorial District meeting held in Owo, where monarchs converged on the Palace of the new Olowo of Owo. The 7 Grade A Obas present were said to have outsmarted the 26 B and C kings, who were blocked from knowing what transpired between the August Visitor and the royals. At the end of the day, after Team Tinubu had left, a paltry sum of N5.7m was dished out by the Coordinating Grade A Oba Olowo, to the 26 representatives of the lower cadre royals. Having failed to disclose the total monetary gift from the Lagos frontline politician, anger got the best of the cheated Grade B and C Obas, who politely declined collecting their own ‘share’ of ‘Tinubu’s cake.’ Efforts were made to settle the matter equitably and fairly, in order to keep the issue off the public domain. https://www.thequesttimes.com/exclusive-apc-nass-members-disappointed-by-tinubus-dollar-rain-during-meeting-with-caucus/ 1 Share

Foolish reporting. They must manufacture news on every Asiwaju outing. Atiku visited PDP NASS caucus but we hear no fake news manufactured but here is Jagaban’s turn and the media already started another round of tears. They are jittery that Jagaban was able to summon NASS members and get a resounding support from them. 34 Likes 5 Shares |

[s] SarkinYarki:[/s] You said worse about Buhari in his first and second term, but as God will always do things in His own way, Buhari is almost rounding off his second term. Same thing will soon happen, meaning another 8 years of wailing, making it 16 yrs. The ways of God is different from the ways of man, so spare us this endless ranting, Tinubu is the next president of the fed rep of Nigeria. Know this and know peace. 9 Likes 1 Share |

[s] Evaloyal2J:[/s] When I wrote "God", are you by any chance assuming I'm talking about lamidi kwanu, the supreme god of ipob pigs? No, I actually meant the living and most powerful God Almighty whose ways are different from the ways of man. Besides, what are you to tell me what to type? If Buhari and Tinubu are evils to you, that is entirely your business, not mine or anyone else. Did you not pray to abiama to kill Buhari? Did abiama answer your prayers? So what makes you the spokesman of God? Get out. 2 Likes 1 Share |
