How The North Scammed Bola Tinubu. by limitless777(m): 1:03am On Nov 21, 2022 |
HOW THE NORTH SCAMMED BOLA TINUBU. Shortly before the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, settled for Alhaji Kashim Shettima as presidential running mate, The Boss had carried a story, which questions if Tinubu will go ahead to choose a Muslim like himself as a running mate, thereby risking a Muslim/Muslim ticket. He did, not minding that the matter has been a source of heated debate on the public domain. That ended up to be a scam. However, any keen watcher of Nigerian politics must be wondering why Tinubu failed for such a scam of a Muslim/Muslim ticket as perpetrated by the North. It must be noted that not even President Muhammadu Buhari who has been endlessly accused of being a religious bigot agreed to Muslim/Muslim ticket, which explains why Tinubu was roundly rejected as Buhari’s running mate during the run up to the 2019 presidential election. Now, the situation has become more volatile. But in defence of Tinubu’s selection of Shettima as running thereby defiling the agelong unwritten law of Nigerian political timeline, the supporters have said the presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Bashorun MKO Abiola did it in 1993, and as a result, can be replicated in Tinubu. But the supporters failed to understand three basic factors, which have come to gain ground overtime. They are: 1. Tinubu is not MKO Abiola. 2. Religion today is not what it used to be in 1993. 3. Tinubu does not have wide spread acceptability like Abiola did in 1993. Tinubu was misled into thinking he was another Abiola, or Abiola incarnate as he went ahead to choose a another Kanuri man as running mate. It will recalled that in 1993, Abiola chose Babagana Kingibe as his running thereby floating a Muslim/Muslim ticket, which was not even noticed as at the time. But time has changed. It is also of paramount importance to note that the Fulani and the Kanuri hardly relate well. They are mutually suspicious of each other. Therefore, picking a Kanuri is a spite on the Fulani/Hausa community, especially in the Northeast. Tinubu’s choice of a northeast running mate is still a mystery knowing very well that the candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar, is from the Northeast. Adamawa to be precise. It is therefore, unheard of that Tinubu should pick a running mate from the same zone. Stakeholders have wondered if he expect the Northeast to reject their own in Atiku, and make him president. The argument is not clear. Again, will the Northeast, which has been clamoring for a president now reject Atiku and settle for a vice in ‘Shettima’ from the same zone. The argument is baseless. Anyone who understands northern politics knows that Kano and Katsina produce the largest number of voters, without which it will be impossible for anyone to become president of Nigeria. Now there is no rationale that these states will settled for Shettima as number two citizen when they could have Atiku as number one citizen. This is a daylight scam against Tinubu, and he seems to not to know it. Again, becoming the president of Nigeria is to an extent controlled by a group of people described ‘Owners of Nigeria’. These people, it was that persuaded Governor Aminu Tambuwal to step down for Atiku during the primary election because they want a formidable candidate who can win the election. And so will not sit back, and watch Tinubu clinch the presidency, The North has played their game, and the likes of Tinubu has fallen for the scam as 2023 beckons. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8YUUUlJ-u4 http:///5f4c0596221119en_ng?link=1&client=mini 2 Likes |

Nice analysis... There is a reason why Atiku isn't seen campaigning as much as anyone would have expected him to if he wasn't confident of the backdoor game already done and dusted. 2 Likes |

The north opened the way for Tinubu to run so that Atiku (or whiche ever northerner) has no real challenge. Obi was completely unexpected, and Wike's refusal to coorperate are not a part of the original program. 12 Likes |

I always laugh when I see this type of article that oozes the hatred and the wish of the writer rather than reality on the ground. I can punch holes in each of the point raised by the writer but there's no need for that now as February 2023 will do justice to that. Analyser that cannot analyse similar point and warn his region when Atiku lurked in the corner during PDP primary and eventually snapped the ticket out of the hands of your people who have laboured for 23 years in PDP while you focus your energy on Tinubu, APC and SW people. Was it not the same analysis of 'Tinubu cannot win the APC ticket' that rented the air during the APC primary with all sorts of predictions about Tinubu's loss and Yoruba disgrace that later turned the opposite way when Tinubu won the ticket and you lost out in your quest to get the PDP ticket? We have witnessed your poor understanding and your baseless analysis that holds no water in the recent past that you all are political larvae with no idea of how politics work in Nigeria. Please reserve your cry till February 2023 as Tinubu does not need your sympathy and your advice on his political adventure. Please allow us to 'cry our cry' and count our loss. Asiwaju doesn't need your advice and approval on who he chooses as a running mate or who he works with as a political friend. Save your empathy and shove your mocking advice down your ass. Tinubu doesn't need it 11 Likes 4 Shares |

Conspiracy theories everywhere. However, it is obvious a game or setup have been planned against Tinubu. The endless gales of defections away from the APC down north is the only pointer. 1 Like |

And you still think Atiku will win this election? Did North envisaged the breakout of Obi from the PDP tent? Did they also foresee Wike’s camp being on the loose? Your analysis is faulted and not substantiated. Shettima has a deep appeal among the North elites. You must think Tinubu who’s been in the game for over 2 decades winning back to back is daft to have picked shettima. . Tinubu has a huge appeal more than Atiku among ATIKUS men. Tinubu will win this election with more than 2 million votes. Politics isn’t about status quo but about negotiation, wooing, calculations and mind buying. Tinubu has all these in his chest. Of course, no one including Tinubu would expect to win the election, especially this season, with a kids’s glove but with hard work. Politics is beyond your analysis |

Moh247: All these shouldn't be overlooked here. It's not only Yoruba who will vote Tinubu. Tinubu needs votes from every angles. The South South won't vote for double Muslim Muslim ticket. Likewise the likes of Plateau, Fct, Benue etc.. these are areas Tinubu would have cleared if he picked Lalong for example. Secondly, the Northern Muslims won't give Tinubu a bloc votes regardless of anything, let alone when they betray him altogether for Atiku hence the question, why limit Tinubu's votes when he should be accessible to everyone? Shettima should be withdrawn abeg. I mean Shettima can always have another role. Besides, everyone knows it shouldn't have been double Muslim Muslim ticket to begin with and federal character was lacking in the ticket, considering it's national level. Why continue with something inimical when it should be easily rectified? |
