Hearing this from an octogenarian, very shameful. If Mulikat were to be his daughter, this is how he would have thrown her under the bus for a northerner.

Why would an opposition party like ACN be duty bound to assist PDP ruling party to run it's politics successfully?

On one hand you will say you're against tribal politics on another context you attack those who don't play tribal politics to elect non party because it is their sister or brother. In chess game you sacrifice pawns to gain officers. Now SW holds speaker and VP position at the same time and in pole position to get the presidency.

Your own understanding of politics is eat everything thrown at you, spare no thought for tomorrow. ACN tomorrow just arrived and it's painful to you.

I acknowledge the Yoruba’s for their political sagacity. According to Akande, GEJ called him to seek help with names of SW PDP nominees presented to the party for Speakership. Akande notified GEJ to instead allow them the ACN produce the Speaker of the House as was done in the US, where the opposition participate in governance but the President switched off the call.

Ndigbo on Nairaland politics section what did you learn from this tale? Interest! Political & ethnic interest. The SW ACN ed Tambuwal because it will benefit their long-term plan of promoting the agenda that GEJ marginalized the SW so they can get to the centre with Tinubu and co at the helms of affairs instead of Obasanjo running the show.

Under GEJ, Ndigbo played politics of no identity, anywhere-belle-face and chop-clean-mouth-forget-tomorrow. Rather than pursue our interest first and long term agenda, Igbo leaders decided to be swayed by GEJ “I’m one of you” and my name is “Azikiwe” daftish mentally to follow GEJ.

Today, clowns and businessmen like MrChukwudi and Mr Vitalist are still pushing Ndigbo to toe the same stupidity their did ancestors did under GEJ.

With all deu respect, this is by far the most unintelligent post I have ever come across on this board.. Makes no sense, just noise..

GO POLITICAL, you'll understand more.

Stop grandstanding. Can't you read. Why was Jonathan reaching out to Tinubu & Pa Akanda for a candidate in PDP when he could have asked them for a candidate in ACN. They very well saw through his manipulation.

In the meantime, President Goodluck Jonathan was pressing for a government of national unity, with a bid of sucking ACN into manipulative extinction.”


Which party is the majority in the house?

So ing PDP candidate for the North made the then ACN better? The truth is that Tinubu and his cohorts are holding the South West to ransom, and that's why I like Amosun, Fayemi for rebelling against Tinubu.

you are shameless and may you and your generation have leaders like tinubu and Akande forever....

talktimi:
Then Tinubu and his urchins went to town with the story that GEJ "marginalised" the SW while the fact is that the so called Yoruba leader was ready to cut off his nose just to spite his face. It's a shame that so called sophisticated folks couldn't leave amala t gossips for a minute to question the words of their selfish leaders, we told them the truth but they refused to listen. Thank God Chief Akande himself has revealed the truth

Please can you open another thread on this?

Did Jonathan chose mauzu as pdp chairman?
The earlier u understand Nigerian politics, the better.
Muazu became pdp chairman after general convention. He wasnt handpicked by jonathan.
Mauzu knew pdp will lose, even jonathan knee he won't win.
The propaganda was so much and southern region didnt help him.
Jonathan failed yes, lets talk about the messiah abeg.

You're a little confused..
One moment you are talking about the peculiar habits obtainable in Nigerias politics. Next minute, you are talking about Nigerias politics as if it's the most effective and the best organized. A president can't dictate his party chairman in Nigeria!? You mean to say that you can impose a candidate that Buhari detests on APC? You sure you have been to Nigeria before?

Rugaria:

That's if you believe that Dasuki was actually jailed..
But what do you know?
Few days ago, you were told by Bode Gorge that the former PDP Chairman under Jonathan, who was also a former governor of Bauchi state, Muazu, ran away from the country few days to the elections! That's the party chairman, running away from an election he was leading! You think that was a coincidence? Naive you..

They were all against GEJ...
It's expected of the northerners...but the fellow southerners from the West,that's an abomination

GEJ need to explain to Nigerians how he managed to pay fuel subsidy and yet sold fuel at N86 per liter.

GEJ need to explain to Nigerians how he managed to controls our borders and yet a bag of rice was sold for 8k.

GEJ need to explain to Nigerians how he managed to build 17 federal universities in 17 states in Nigeria.

GEJ need to explain to Nigerians how he managed to build almajiri schools in all the Norther Local governments.

GEJ need to explain to Nigerians how he managed to hold $1=#165 for 4yrs

GEJ need to Explain to Nigerians how he managed to push Nigeria's economy to be number 1 in African.

GEJ, we need answers.

Ok,you and poizon are brethren..stop this now. Let's focus on the painful sad exposed truth here and spread it wide....the BETRAYERS amongs us must never go unpunished

DabuIIIT:
you are shameless and may you and your generation have leaders like tinubu and Akande forever....

The problem with the South West APC hoodlums on this board is that they stand by whatever that was said by Tinubu, irrespective of how good or bad. They call it "respect for elders".. Drug lord and his boys..

GEJ had a lot of faults & was not politically astute...

But for some persons to come here & the action of the then ACN is ridiculous, 1d1ot1c & shameful.

You talk about your people being one but are quick to sacrifice them on the alter of political expediency...

The ACN was playing Politics. Today, a Yoruba man is your VP since 2015 and another Yoruba man is your Speaker since 2015.

A Yoruba Man will likely be your president again in 2023.

Hypocrite, answer simple question,why were you people blaming Jonathan all these years then??!!!

So now you accept that you are BETRAYERS?!

poiZon:

Pdp was the majority, let that sink into ur empty skull.

2015 senate presidency was supposed to be zoned to south east, they wasn't any senator from south east that was a 2timer. Why didnt apc considered pdp senators?

In USA no minority has ever been the speaker.
Nancy pelosi became speaker under republican because they were the majority in the house. She even did trump shege cos the house impeached trump,

Don't mind them. They refused to vote for Chris Ngige to return to senate. Chris Ngige would have automatically become the Senate President instead of the political war that happened between the Saraki faction and Lawan faction, which saw Saraki eventually becoming the President of the 8th Senate.

Who is Mulikat? What does she look like who knows her?
In 1979 Azikiwe did a deal with Shagari to give the Party of Azikiwe the NPP the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the sky did not fall

GEJ thought he was being clever with the Mulikat offer.

A Greek gift

Una get sense no be small
Your party was not popular in the SW and you have to do politics the right way.

Jonathan was given the opportunity to give ACN the Speakership and refused

Shagari did this for Ume-Ezeoke in 1979

The Political game was between ACN and PDP.

If GEJ ed the ACN in producing the Speaker, maybe the ACN would have also ed him in 2015.

This is Politics bro.

A Yoruba Man is the Vice President since 2015

A Yoruba Man is the Speaker Of The House since 2015

APC kicked PDP(Under GEJ an Ijaw man) out of power in 2015.

Majority of the people in Bayelsa voted for the APC Governorship candidate ahead of that of the PDP.

Is all Politics Bro.

MANDIPUTIN:
AS president in 2011, Goodluck Jonathan did all he could to ensure South West grabbed the country’s number four seat, including lobbying then opposition leaders from the zone, to no avail. The North West eventually grabbed the seat, ed by South West leaders in opposition to then ruling party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). 

Former Governor of Osun State and now statesman, Chief Bisi Akande, made this revelation in his autobiography, “My Participations” which is currently dominating political and national dis- course. 

Aminu Tambuwal, now Sokoto State governor, won the seat, against the preferred pick of his party, Mrs Mulikat Adeola Akande, from the South-West. Defunct Action Congress of Nigeria, then a fledging opposition, which had Akande and his soulmate, former Lagos State governor, Senator Bola Tinubu, as front- line leaders, openly asked its elected of the House of Representatives, mostly from the South-West, to work against their region and back Tambuwal from North-West. 

The opposition party’s carried Tambuwal through the contest against Akande, then ruling party’s favourite for the speakership seat.

In his book, Chief Akande revealed that former president then as incumbent, personally reached out to Tinubu, who is now believed to be nursing presidential aspiration in 2023 and himself, but couldn’t convince them. 

He wrote, “President Jonathan, immediately after the meeting (with political parties), called Bola Tinubu aside into a lobby to broach the matter of ACN for a choice of who would become the Speaker of the House of Representatives. 

“That same day, President Jonathan talked to me on phone about the same matter. He disclosed that PDP had zoned the position to the South-West but that only one Muraina and another Mulika won elections on PDP ticket from the zone into the House of Representatives. 

“I quickly reminded him that, as at (sic) that date in the United States of America, while the Democrats produced the Senate President, the Republicans (the opposition) produced the Speaker of the House of Representatives. I boasted that ACN was capable of suggesting to him ten names of from the South West from among whom to choose if PDP would be magnanimous enough to practice democracy the way it was being practised in the USA, from where we imported our presidential system. 

“He seemed pissed off and stopped the conversation,” he said.

In the era being referenced by the former national chairman of the defunct opposition party, the controlling party in each of the chambers of the Congress in the United States was in the majority, which wasn’t the case with ACN when the Ila-born politician was making his claim.

He also revealed in the book that their political platforms had their sight on working against the then ruling party. 

“In the aftermath of the 2011 elections, many of our people were dissatisfied. Under the PDP, our country has become thoroughly decadent. Those of us who saw the then ruling party as an extension of the military corrupt politics preferred to work with all the major opposition parties which would eventually lead to a merger if we were to uproot the entrenched PDP and its evil tendencies. The first party that came to mind was the C which like us, was resolutely opposed to the PDP. 

“Immediately after the elections, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila led a team of ACN boys to Bola Tinubu and me to suggest for Hon. Aminu Tambuwal, a PDP member from Sokoto, to become the Speaker of the House of Representatives. 

In the meantime, President Goodluck Jonathan was pressing for a government of national unity, with a bid of sucking ACN into manipulative extinction.” 

Another major revelation from the book is the involvement of a former National Security Adviser and a Sokoto prince, Colonel Sambo Dasuki (rtd) in the presidential project of now President Muhammadu Buhari preparatory to the 2011 presidential election against then incumbent Jonathan. 

Jonathan defeated Buhari in the contest, before Buhari triumphed in their replay in 2015. 

Interestingly, Dasuki would go on to become Jonathan’s most senior security adviser, but also ended up spending 1,484 days in detention, while being prosecuted by the Buhari istration, for alleged corruption while serving in the Jonathan istration. 

He was eventually released on December 24, 2019, after many court orders for his released had been spurned by the istration. He was accused of siphoning fund meant for arms to fight insurgency in the North-East. 

The author, however, paid the embattled former security chief compliments for his role in facilitating a merger between ACN and C in the build-up to the 2011 poll, to defeat Jonathan. 

He said, “The reaction of C to this letter (to C from ACN and published on the same page), began the failed negotiation between ACN and C which attracted further intervention by some national leaders like General Babangida, Atiku Abubakar and others. 

“This eventually crashed at the threshold of the 2011 presidential elections which President Jonathan of the PDP won again. 

“The efforts of the former National Security Adviser– Colonel Sambo Dasuki is worth mentioning in this political bridge-building attempt between ACN and C. Dasuki was then in of Buhari becoming the presidential candidate of the alliance. 

“Sambo Dasuki was coming around, begging us, to Buhari’s presidential aspiration. Nuhu Ribadu, whom we had earlier chosen as our presidential candidate in the ACN, said he was ready to step down for Buhari. He said when he accepted to run, he did not know that Buhari was also interested in running.”
