I LIKE TINUBU CHOICE OF AKUME.
Saraki has just said Declaration of asset is not enough when he knows he can not come clean. I wonder who told him Buhari is not aware that declaration of asset is not enough.

By our Nigerian dictionary; compared to N2trn campaign spenders; $20bn oil scammers; N1.7trn subsidy fraudsters; pension scammers; immigration scammers; N299bn NDDC budgeters; N260mln bullet proof car buyers....... Yes they are.

Thanks for this response. The only thing I'll have changed is the "Dictionary" to "Constitution" otherwise perfect response.

Now I understand what you mean... you mean the ones you mentioned are small thieves while the others are big thieves.... thank you

Stop drawing inference from what the guy said. Either small or big, thief na thief, stealing is corruption. Those ones are confirmed thief by our law & constitution.

Tinubu's people are very clean by our constitution but if you feel otherwise then take it up with the constitution and the people that has being incharge of enforcing it for the past 16years.

BTW the guy knocked you out already. Don't you ever die.

OilGas:
Former Governor of Lagos State and National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, is leaving no one in doubt that he calls the shots in the party as he has penciled down his key men to lead the new National Assembly, NASS, to be inaugurated early June.
With the party’s power sharing formula, Tinubu has positioned his men to takeover available positions zoned to the regions. APC zoned the Senate Presidency to the North-Central, Speakership to the South-West, Tinubu’s region, which also produced the Vice President, the Secretary to Government of the Federation, SGF to the South-East and the Senate Majority Leader to the South-West.
Going by the zoning arrangement, the battle on how to fill the vacancies has started in earnest with Tinubu said to have lined up three strong contenders to take over the leadership of the 8th NASS.
He is alleged to be backing Senator George Akume, former Benue State Governor and long time political ally from the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN to be the Senate President.
In the same vein, Tinubu is backing Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, his political protégé to take over as the Speaker of the House of Representatives, while at the same time positioning his wife, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, to be the Senate Majority Leader.
Though he is said to be facing stiff opposition from those backers of Senator Bukola Saraki, mainly from the party’s governors, Nigerian Pilot learnt that he is playing a religious card in pushing the candidature of Akume and Gbajabiamila.
Tinubu’s argument, it was gathered, is that if Saraki is allowed to be Senate President, and Hon. Gbajabiamila becomes the Speaker, it would open the party to criticisms given the fact that the President-elect is a Muslim and both Saraki and Gbajabiamila are also Muslims.
According to Tinubu’s argument, the religious balancing would come only when the Senate president is a Christian and the natural choice is Akume.
The former Lagos governor also allegedly blackmailed Saraki’s backers with a case of N21billion preferred against the former governor of Kwara State by the Special Fraud Unit of the Nigeria Police. He purportedly told them that the party cannot be championing anti-corruption and at the same time promoting someone who has such a “dirty” case still hanging on his neck. This, according to insiders, has ruffled many feathers in the APC hierarchy with many afraid the party may slide into a one-man show.
The zoning of Speakership to the South-West, it is understood, has caused a friction between Tinubu and Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, the party’s national chairman, who had passionately pleaded that the party zone the slot to the South-South in order for his preferred candidate, Mr. Pally Iriase, from Edo State to get the office. For all Odigie-Oyegun’s pleas, Tinubu reminded him how he also went against the wishes of many and installed him as the APC chairman.
With the Vice President-elect, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo being Tinubu’s ally, Odigie-Oyegun’s argument is that it would amount to unexplainable greed for the party to allow Tinubu to also take the Speakership slot.
However, Tinubu is understood to have stood his ground, threatening to throw the Speakership position open to contest, a position he well understands he would have upper hand because of the number of House of Representatives members from the South-West as compared to Odigie-Oyegun’s South-South.
If Tinubu bulldozes his way through as he is bent on doing, it means that he would have been responsible for three of the four most powerful positions in Nigeria. He singlehandedly nominated the vice president-elect.
Meanwhile, the zoning of the SGF to the South-East has opened a fresh battle on who succeeds Chief Anyim Pius Anyim between Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu and Dr. Chris Ngige, all former governors and eminently qualified for the office.
Insiders in the party are favouring Onu, arguing that he is more of a stabiliser, tilting towards a technocrat than Ngige who is seen as an everyday politician.
Onu’s maturity and for the fact that he comes from the All Nigeria Peoples Party, ANPP wing of the APC, may stand him in good stead ahead of Ngige who comes from the ACN wing of the party. ANPP has not really benefitted much in terms of sharing positions in the party and if it is still denied this, it may cause great disaffection in the party.

No position should be given to the south east. They should be marginalized. The thinking of an average tribalistic bigot. Let me start the statement because i know someone must make a tribal statement. But note that we would survive without government handout.
hahahahha nobody will quote u. The south east does nt need a political position to survive. They are hardworking hustlers, businessmen n women.keep waiting for political position till u reach 100 years old okay.. I weep for u..

They've shared all the meaningful posts.

I know they won't value him, he is Just a tout.


He was embattled and ended up displaying his frustration at every opportunity, thereby belittling himself.
Nothing is left of him right now, they've seen it all.

Some people would be surprised at how tinubu would be sidelined by northerners. Una never see anything
Certainly not me brother!!! Yoruba never learn, people like kwakwanso and those ACF old hawks are most likely already disgusted with Tinubu & his "Lord of the manor" attitude, they are like the patient vultures, waiting for the opportunity to devour his carcass. The contempt core north has for the rest of the country has never been in doubt, they used Tinubu as necessary evil to achieve a means. I see Tinubu crumbling like the fabled Humpty Dumpty. From May 29 going forward promises to be interesting. O game eme ha gum n'anya!!!

During most of the campaign period, did Buhari or APC promise you all those goodies like good hospitals, efficient power supply, good roads, good education?

APC campaign was mostly that Jonathan and his crew had stolen Nigeria blind and couldn't stop BH, couldn't bring the seized Chibok girls who every right thinking Nigerian knows were kidnapped to send Jonathan away from office.

Buhari promised that he was coming to kill corruption before corruption kills Nigeria, something Buhari knew he can't succeed in doing. Because Corruption is inherent in the unitary government system and rigged political structure of Nigeria.

Don't expect much from APC government.

In other words,shud I call you a pessimist when it comes Nigeria becoming a.success?

The oil Tinubu, Buhari, and their kinsmen are about drinking is located in the south yet their concience stil justifies their act. May God foregive them cause they don't know what they are doing.

Nigeria will certainly die a natural death sooner than later
