Obi case has been settled since Obi met with him in Rome in respect of Fidelity Bank that's why Obi came out yesterday to say he will contest in 2027, in other to reduce votes from Atiku. From the way things are going presently, Nigerians should just wait till 2031 and chose among, Kwankwanso, Shettima and a host of Northern candidates that will come up Except Obidients borrow sense and think.... Obidients will be the deciding factor in the next election, it's either they waste their votes on Obi Or they push Tinubu out by voting for Atiku

Hmmm

Loading Katsina with positions why?

Tinubu is the first president to ever cage the whole country and control it after he's out power.

Nigeria will become tinubus personal property.

Politics 999,
No other politician in Nigeria has ever done or knows this course
He is indeed the wisest of them all.
He build alliances
Welcomes all to his party
Give them appointment in the area of their strength in order for them to stay and to show He values them.

Bringing Shauibu, Pius Anyim and Shema in the mix,

Oga impact the people, not politicians. The people are the majority voters.
What you are doing is too obvious. Must you go for second term. Make the people happy that's why you're there in the first place.

Imagine former Senate presidents becoming heads of Agencies 😀😀, All because you want to secure second term. And they even accepted the positions, denigrating!

..to capture the north for 2027

Whoever is close to Chief Pius Anyim should advise him to firmly reject this gratuitous insult. How can a former Senate President and SGF be made chairman of an inconsequential and near comatose agency? Tinubu gives all the top juicy positions to his Yoruba people and leave the crumbs for the rest of us. Shame on hungry politicians

1 SE person appointed out of 22 positions .

The post he got,

Guess ?

The SE should work to leave Nigeria

A benue position not given to a Benue indigen, that's not a Benue name

Who is the Abubakar from Benue ?

Why can't Atikuents borrow sense, step down and stop stealing votes from Obi?

Knowing fully well Atiku can't win?

God bless Labour Party
