Atiku as Nigeria president?

Corrinthians:
Whatever happened to the killer party's slogan of "buy naija to grow naija"?

Paying over thirty million naira for a job you people claimed to have completely executed for him. Yesterday it was Dubai, today this. What are we to expect tomorrow.

I can hardly wait for the election to come and go. Na suicide go sure pass for some of these pdp fanatics.

sarrki:
Truly it’s a desperate time for Pdp

Either Putin, Tradeau, Theresa May or ku

Osinbajo And 2023 is so paramount to us

We won’t trade it for anything

Ategberoson:



and you think that was all? please if you don't have a political view about something just maintained a lowkey. do you know these nincompoop went along to use money laundering to be indicting themselves abroad money meant for Nigeria.


if not for the censor law I would bring to your view why you would rather stone obj and Atiku rather than vote him

Ategberoson:



you people are just one ignorant that's hard to sensitize. so in your small brain she will go against her husband reelection? well that's her and her husband problem


I'm sure have faulted the first person that quote me comparative analysis and I'm cool with that


Atiku will never become Nigeria president with their atrocities in Nigeria revenue. PDP as a party can never rule Nigeria as a party with many people and the escalation of bokoharam that happened under their watch


never again to PDP in Nigeria

Wiseandtrue:

When APC employed Obama's campaign strategist group, you ALL hailed them and attributed the success of 2015 to them

Bloody hypocrites!

Never again shall we vote for a president of your land or your life!

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has hired Brian Ballard, a top US lobbyist, ahead of the 2019 elections.

The influential lobbyist has President Donald Trump as one of his clients. Politico Magazine, a top publication in the US, says Ballard is closer to the US president than perhaps any other lobbyist in town.

“He’s parlayed that relationship into a booming business helping clients get their way with the Trump administration — and his clients and even some of his rivals say his firm has a better grasp of what’s going on in the West Wing than almost anyone else,” the magazine said in a report.

“Ballard was one of the top fundraisers in the country for Trump’s campaign and continues to raise millions for his reelection campaign. Wiles, one of his top lieutenants, ran Trump’s campaign in Florida and delivered the nation’s biggest swing state to the president.”

Documents seen by TheCable showed that Nigeria’s main opposition party has agreed to pay $90,000 (N31.5m) to Ballard on a monthly basis throughout the duration of the contract.

TheCable understands that the contract which was signed on September 21, 2018 is for a year, meaning Ballard would rake in close to N400 million from the deal.

“This contract is entered into between the Peoples Democratic Party of Nigeria (“the Client”), Plot l970 Michael Okpara Street, Wuse Zone 5, Abuja, and Ballard Partners, Inc. (“the F irm”), 601 13th Street NW, Suite 450N, Washington, D. C. 20005,” the agreement read.

“This agreement shall automatically renew for successive one-year periods on the anniversary of the effective date of the agreement unless either party terminates the agreement. Upon renewal this agreement may be terminated within thirty (30) days written notice by either party.

“Duties of the firm. It shall be the Firm’s duty to consult with the Client and advocate on its behalf those issues the client deems necessary and appropriate before the US Federal government. Issues and objectives may include, but not be limited to, enhancement of US Nigerian relations; strengthening and advancing democratic values and the rule of law in Nigeria, with a special focus in the coming months on maintaining political and security conditions free of intimidation and interference in order to ensure the success and fairness of Nigeria’s national election for president in 2019. It shall further be the Firm’s duty to inform the Client of developments in legislation and policy relevant to the Client’s issues and objectives.

“It shall be the Client’s duty to provide the Firm the information necessary to best represent the Client. It shall also be the Client’s duty to timely compensate the Firm for its services.

“Compensation. The Firm shall receive from the Client $90,000 a month, payable in quarterly installments for this agreement, plus the reasonable costs associated with the representation, including but not limited to, necessary registration fees; and travel expenses.”

Osita Chidoka, a former minister of aviation, signed the contract on behalf of the PDP.

This report comes two weeks after Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the party, led PDP stalwarts to Dubai for a strategy meeting.

That one na past tense nah!

You no dey current! I guess that is how you roll in the world of the zombies

In the real world, we are ...

Corrinthians:
The most brainless zombies here are those people who pull out all sort of excuses for their god Atiku not sticking to his vow of patronising only Nigerian businesses.

The zombies are those who equate their immediate family to the entirety of Nigerians.

The zombies are those who screamed they want out of Nigeria just yesterday only to start licking the crouch of a presidential candidate with relish today.

The zombies are those struggling to survive with N-Power stipend yet praising a crook for paying a foreigner, over 30million naira monthly for doing a job the same zombies claimed to have completely exhausted.

OruExpress:
Lol, do they know that Donald Trump got less votes than Hilary?

wristbangle:
I don't know how true is this report but news from "the cable" appears to be authentic most times.

Back to topic, I told someone that PMB is a colossal failure but Atiku is not only a serial loot but a hardened criminal. His desperation stinks and clearly shows what he aims to achieve by looting the nation's wealth to nothing.

In short, majority of these wicked politicians deserve to die. The poor masses are begging for paltry minimum wage of 30,000 but these idiots choose to settle for 20k when neighbouring countries earn up to 40k and to mention not being part of OPEC body should be a huge slap on our government.

The looting ongoing in APC/PDP can't be phantom. I wonder what will be left for future generation when oil becomes useless. I even read it somewhere that the current NNPC boss failed to remit 91 trillion not even billion to FG account since 2016. What a shame!

Imagine paying someone USD 90k per month for the wicked ATIKULOOT to manoeuvre his way to power and somehow get pardoned by the US team to clear his charges.

I really don't pity these politicians but the stvpid Nigerian youths and shameful elders shouting Sai Baba and Atikuobi. Am done telling people neither PMB/ATIKU can fix the economy but trust some people will say let's settle for the lesser evil. Na una sabi. I can't wait to leave this country. Am done believing there is hope here.

is Aisha an elected officer? she can only steal from money allocated to her not direct to Nigeria pocket. so comparing an intending elected officer to Aisha that was an entrepreneur before she got the entitled of wife of president. they're all thieves but Atiku is a smart thief


just imagine your baseless comparative. don't your brain function well on Friday?

Osibanjo the mere commissioner can never and will never rule this country. We are tired with all these wolves in sheep clothing politicians.

The way forward is to OBIdiently ATIKUlate!!!

Buy naija to grow naija indeed.

From denying caterers, hoteliers, and other businesses much needed patronage by having meetings in Dubai, to this. Yet some unintelligent belligerent goombahs think these guys have the keys to fix all our problems.

Olulinks:

You see your first line can only make someone like me wonder and probed the reason behind your move to comment at all.
Because Aisha is the President's wife, she can have as much as what was reported in the news that was stolen from her recently. This woman entrepreneur that couldn't lend her husband the money for his presidential form some few years back, now could save up so much in billion that one of her staff stole from here in this bad economy.
Unfortunately, these guys don't know you're here fighting thier course with your fellow man. They don't even care about you, if they do things would be better for all not only thier family members.
See bro, let's not drag this. Their money in government than you can imagine. Trust yourself and not one President or his wife. My one cent.
