only if he can stay away from Ondo state then APC can have ground in the state, but if you think you are smart then Ondo people will let you know that they are smarter. Stay away from our OIL. We say NO to Slavery on our own land.

naijaGhandi:
Tinubu is imposing so they say, mention candidates he's picked but got to office only to fail woefully. This is the same cry indigenes of ekiti were about but today they now understand that a tinubu's candidate is better than fayose for them. I wish them luck over there in ondo state. Ondo state is almost finished, no thanks to mimiko, anything short of a good administrator that can bring back the state from coma, I don't know how worse its economy would be

So in ur mind, both fayemi and arrgbesola are good?? continue

goonsmi:







You don't know what you are saying Sir. Who amongst the other aspirants campaigned like Ambode ? As an aspirant you can't just sit somewhere and be expecting manners from heaven. You have to go to the field and meet those that will help your course which Ambode did by touring all the wards and meeting the delegates, party leaders, women groups and youths while his opponents only start work few weeks to the primary.


Yayi is toiling day and night building structures in ogun state as we speak while his intending opponents are still sleeping only to later shout imposition when its glaring that they will lose.



Fyi. virtually more than half of this aspirants are banking on this sole Tinubu for this ticket but as a wise party leader he will check among them the best and deploy the machineries for him. Competence and loyalty comes first in Nigeria politics , If APC leaders fail to root for a candidate among the contestants the opposition will help them finance a candidate and impose him on the party or you think all the aspirants are with the party 100% ? some of them are silently been financed by the opposition.

Lies,hamzat was more on ground than ambode before the primary election, but you can only know what u want to know, those of us that know knows well.

Neither Mimiko's (PDP) nor Tinubu's (APC) will carry Ondo...it will be taken by an Independent candidate, not LP or APGA or Kowa.

Don't allow godfather in Ondo election so that Ondo state economy will not be met down like that of Osun state

I am a very keen follower of the political developments in my region and I stand by my statement. The same Hamzat was banking on his father's relationship with Asiwaju ( FYI , Hamzat father is Asiwaju's associate) and Fashola .



We have many groups working for Ambode in APC then and the same can't be said of hamzat. where was hamzat when Ambode was touring the wards and meeting all that needed to meet?.

These candidates join Tinubu's party and every election they wail about the same thing

Newsflash: in SW APC Tinubu would always annoint his preferred candidate If you dont like it, decamp to APGA or KOWA

Lifestone:
Tinubu must know that Ondo state is not Lagos state. I am suprised that he has refused to learn from the event of recent history in 2012 when he imposed Akeredolu as his cadidate in ACN against Mimiko, he failed woefully.
I have always insisted that it's an illusion for Tinubu to think he is the defacto leader of the Yorubas and can therefore dictate what must happen in states outside Lagos.
Awolowo lost Ondo and Oyo state in the 1983 election to NPN because of the imposition of Ajasin and Bola Ige
A word is enough for the wise, but the question is whether our leaders are wise

It's a ploy bro to divert people's attention from their plan. They know quite well that people will beleive that any candidate presented by the APC is Tinubu's stooge. Who's Abraham Olusegun? Why not mention names like Boroffice or Aketi?

Divert their expectation and strike with the game plan. I We are not fools

'Imposition' is everywhere in Nigeria.

Mimiko imposed Eyitayo as the would-be PDP candidate. Ondo PDP is in revolt right now.

In the election, the APC candidate will be largely funded from Lagos, so anyone who thinks the person who pays the piper will not dictate the tune is mistaken.

Same happened in 2012. Then, apparently a large some was approved from bourdillon for the election but it apparently never got to the local APC foot soldiers. Akeredolu, the APC candidate allegedly pocketed a big chunk of the money. I was told he then proceeded to build a large hotel immediately after the election

He performed so woefully in the candidates debate that he left such a negative impression on so many in the State. Aketi is unlikely to win a state-wide election in Ondo State.

Why would anyone blame Tinubu for wanting to put his money behind someone else?

That said, I dont even know who this Abraham person is.

Besides, Tinubu

Besides, Tinubu has not demanded that any of the other candidates should step down.

According to the Op, he has only advised the party administrators in Ondo State to support his preferred candidate. Where is the wrong in that? This sort of thing happens in the US and to a lesser extent, the UK.

The other would-be contestannts can also lobby the party administrators.

Afterall, Atiku's candidate, despite all Atiku's money lost the Adamawa Governorship primaries. Governor Okowa of Delta State also defeated the then outgoing Governor's candidate.

There's still a lot to play for if you're a brave candidate in Ondo, instead of shouting imposition! imposition!

By the way, the only chance APC has of winning the election in November is if they outspend PDP on election day vote-buying. Otherwise, they are toast.

That's the sad reality. Mimiko has not paid workers salaries for 6 months & is deeply unpopular. A few months ago, APC's chance of defeating PDP was very high.

Right now, APC is unpopular on the streets due to country's economic situation. SECONDLY, APC is just rudderless ...they have more than 30 interested contestants running around, with only 1or 2 with a significant name recognition. THIRDLY, Mimiko'selection of Eyitayo, who is from Akure is major advantage for PDP.

Only chance APC has is to outspend PDP on election day. People are hungry...on election day, they can be persuaded to vote for the highest bidder.

And none of the APC contestants has the resources to outspend Mimiko who I understand is ready to spend whatever it takes . This is where the bourdillon factor comes in.

Those shouting imposition will have to step forward & put their billions where their mouth is. Tinubu has thrown down the gauntlet to them.

Well said Delarue

Not forgetting Fayose too would not want Ondo to be lost.

So if you are looking for funding from Tinubu then he has to pick his candidate

ANd why are they surprised Tinubu picks candidates? Most who are wailing are simply dissapointed Tinubu didnt pick them

If they are sure of themselves, they should port to other parties and test their popularity

I think the other aspirants are just crying over a spilled milk. we in Ondo State know before now that Segun Abraham is the best of all with his socialist idea coupled with the fact that he has institutionalised free scholarship awards for students from Primary to PhD levels for the past 20years. Definitely he clearly in the lead in the mind of most people on the street. Abayomi should tell us how many people or youth in the State he has assisted on way or the other even in his home town Okeagbe? None so why the fuss over the people's choice! Na bad belleeeeeeeee

Segun Abraham is our choice in Ondo North, Ondo South and Ondo Central in Particular and Ondo State in General. He has always been identified with Youth empowerment through Scholarship grants to students from Primary to PhD for the past 20years. Most other aspirants only show up now when election is around the corner. It is Segun Abraham All they way

Mynd44:

Nigerians are weird, you mystify someone by yourself and then start claiming he is chasing you up and down then you go back to claim he is being demystified.

Why can't aspirants just go to a primary elections with their supporters and vote? If the delegates are bribed or cajoled, why not do yours? I dont see how that should be a problem.

Only folks with inferiority complexes run about shouting

Unintelligent post

See this information am dishing out is authentic, Hamzat was on ground than ambode before election, it is not about touring all wards, Hamzat was defeated by tinubu not by ambode, one on one Hamzat will flush ambode, it was that same day that tinubu told a one time deputy speaker of LAGOS state house of assembly that it is ambode he should follow.

One on one in politics There is nothing like that in politics. politics is all about structures and coalition. Ambode was able to garner more people that mattered to his side and that is the end of the argument.

One on one is leaving both of them to slug it out without backing them, tinubu structure win d ticket for ambode ....a fact even non partisan know...so why deviation

and you think some forces with their structures did not back hamzat? Politics is not as easy as 1,2,3 you have to dig deep to understand. You can't blame Ambode for his capability to win the trust of Tinubu when Hamzat was unable to do so.



There was a primary election contested fairly by all the aspirants in the race which the aspirant with the most powerful forces won clean and fair. If you want to know what is called imposition, check what amosun is currently doing in ogun APC as per the councillorship and chairmanship candidate and you will understand.

A word is enough for the wise, but the question is whether our leaders are wise

he never claimed leadership of Yoruba, just HIS PARTY, that THEY JOINED KNOWING FULLY that it is a party of IMPOSITION. so they should stop pretending as if they didn't know what's up

lovat:
Stay on Tinubu mata and stop typng dogo turenci to glorify Jagatheif. Tinubu is being demystifed daily

who come lose
ekiti failure
ondo disaster
e be like say dem never suffer reach

bejeiodus:
Where is the fairness in the process when it has been tailored to produce an anointed candidate?
who forced them to join the party
No matter how hard the other candidates try, they can never defeat the chosen candidate.
try to become the anointed candidate
If you are in doubt, make a quick search about the gubernatorial primary that produced Ambode as the governorship candidate of the APC. If all the thirteen candidates were allowed to test their strength without the overt support of Tinubu, Ambode could not have come fourth not to talk of being the flag bearer.

and would have lost their main elections
The electoral process is much more than queuing up on a selected Saturday to elect a leader. It starts right from the parties primaries. What is democratic about a leader foisting is political son on other members of his party?
his money
his effort
his leadershi
his superior
Is that not injurious to democracy?
it's free to form party o
Tinubu loves to think himself as the political kingmaker in the Southwest,

he is it is high time people rose to challenge his imperious authority.

make dem go form dia own party if e easy
