PMB: The dangers of one-man-show - Tinubu's newspaper blasts Buhari

PMB: The dangers of one-man-show - Tinubu's newspaper blasts Buhari. Buhari is in a desert he created experimenting with governance

Perversive aura of power 

We must not grant President Muhammadu Buhari too much comfort. We cannot afford to blink or take our eyes off the ball. Not anymore; not after all the tormenting disappointments that have emanated from that Aso Rock Presidential Villa since 1999. Why should a President Olusegun Obasanjo have failed so woefully having rode into the scene with cognate experience none else in Nigeria’s history had? Yet he managed to set us back many years. Did we not think that President Goodluck Jonathan brandishing a PhD, and all that shoelessness, was indeed a breath of fresh air? But he fouled our air so much we are still choking.

Confusion, lethargy or, worse, paralysis: Tinubu blasts Buhari's government

Confusion, lethargy or, worse, paralysis: Tinubu blasts Buhari's government
The brewing crises hitting right at the heart of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has turned Bola Tinubu against General Muhammadu Buhari. In an article published by the Nation, Tinubu's front-line newspaper, Buhari's government was described as confused, lethargic and in paralysis.

Read the full article below:

After clipping Tinubu's wings, Osinbajo is next. His impeachment is only a matter of time

After clipping Tinubu's wings, Osinbajo is next. His impeachment is only a matter of time
Yesterday forces propped up by the Northern Oligarchy thoroughly clipped the wings of Boa Tinubu, the self proclaimed leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The humiliation that has been meted out to Tinubu and his Yoruba cohorts may be forcing them to plan their exit from the APC. But it is already late! The Northern Oligarchy has fully been instituted at the helm of affairs of Nigeria through the myopic and parochial interests of the Yorubas.  There is nothing Tinubu and co could do now that would change it - except start plotting to secede from Nigeria.

Why north is against Tinubu: Atiku, Kwankwaso, Tambuwal at the forefront. Fear grips Lagos APC over proceedings at governorship tribunal

Why north is against Tinubu: Atiku, Kwankwaso, Tambuwal at the forefront. Fear grips Lagos APC over proceedings at governorship tribunal
The All Progressives Congress (APC) is gradually developing cracks within its structures, perhaps, towards consolidation of the party in the new challenge of governance at the federal level. The covert cold war which has pervaded the party since the electioneering campaign for the 2015 General Elections got to the climax last week during the election of the principal officers of the National Assembly. The various factions in the emerging mass political party from the conglomerate caucus political parties that metamorphosed into the APC at the time of merger tested the potency of their respective power blocs in the power competition for the election of the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Fulani solidarity and the betrayal of Bola Tinubu: How the Yorubas were dribbled by the Northern Oligarchs

Fulani solidarity and the betrayal of Bola Tinubu: How the Yorubas were dribbled
The loss of the Senate Presidency and the Speakership of the Federal House of Representatives by the APC faction of Alhaji Bola Ahmed Tinubu is another chapter in the naivety and misguided priority of the current ruling political class of the Yoruba nation. It would have serious consequences for the fortunes of the Yoruba nation in the foreseeable future. The conscious efforts of Tinubu to cultivate the friendship of the Fulani ruling class for the purposes of wining political power within the Nigerian context would definitely end in disaster and this is just the beginning.

The bickering starts: Tibubu criticises Buhari's approach to Boko Haram

The bickering starts: Tibubu criticises Buhari's approach to Boko Haram
The bickering in the unholy union between the Yorubas and Hausa-Fulani oligarchy has started earlier than expected. The self-proclaimed National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has suggested that with the inauguration of General Muhammadu Buhari as the 6th Executive President of Nigeria on May 29, the deadly Boko Haram sect has only escalated its attacks.

A series of bombings that have killed dozens of defenceless people across the North East, have become commonplace since Buhari’s inauguration making it the bloodiest in the recent months.

Now the battle begins! Yoruba people contributed nothing to Buhari's victory - Alhaji Shamsudeen Usman (APC Kano).

Alhaji Shamsudeen Usman states that Yoruba people contributed nothing to Buhari's victory 
  • Yorubas must not blackmail Buhari. 
  • Tinubu should not think that controlling Lagos is same as controlling Nigeria.
  • The real heroes of the Buhari victory are the Igbos in APC - Gov Shettima (Borno state).
Alhaji Shamsudeen Usman, the leader of the Kano State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has frowned at the insinuations that the Yorubas or the South West region was responsible for  Buhari's victory, calling the whole assumption as rubbish.
