2023: Moghalu reveals real reason APC opted for Muslim-Muslim ticket

A presidential candidate in the 2019 general election and presidential aspirant in respect of the 2023 polls, Kingsley Moghalu, on Friday said the Muslim-Muslim ticket of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) is a “political calculation”, and not a declaration of religious war.

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Moghalu who said this via his verified Twitter handle stated that he is not surprised by the uproar the issue has generated.

“As I said recently to a question on @ARISEtv, the APC Muslim-Muslim ticket was intended more as a political calculation than a declaration of “religious war”. Given the sensitivity of religion in Nigeria today, however, it should not surprise us that it’s sparked a storm,” the former Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Deputy-Governor said.

“It will be tested at the polls. Today’s Nigeria is hardly the one in which MKO Abiola won the presidential election in 1993 on a Muslim-Muslim ticket. What a difference time makes. Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe ran for President in 1979 on a Christian-Christian ticket with Prof Ishaya Audu.

“Obafemi Awolowo also ran in the same election with the renowned lawyer Phillip Umeadi, a Christian like him. Shehu Shagari, a Muslim, ran with Dr. Alex Ekwueme, Christian – and won, though by the kin of his teeth for those who the 12 and 2/3rd judicial saga.

“Las las it is clear that Nigeria’s nationhood trajectory has gone downward rather than upward in the past three decades. Who, or what, will be the real “unifier”? My answer: a fundamental constitutional re-engineering. #Restructuring.

Is election not about winning

To win any election, you need winning formula which Muslim Muslim is just the right ingredients for Tinubu and APC

Of what development have religion brought to Nigeria that some people are shouting ?

New churches and mosques are been built daily yet the rate of crime is increasing. Who exactly have they been preaching to.

A country where millions of the youths are jobless yet we have more religion centres than industry?

Let's judge the aspirants by what they are capable to do not all this religion sentiments discussion

Atiku is the unifier.. exactly what Nigeria as a nation needs..
Not tribal or religious sentiments

This is 2023.. not 79/93’

Atiku/Okowa 2023

Nigeria unity is first before any individual interest


Power to the people !!

PDP!!!

If roles were reversed. Will the Muslim north accept a Christian Christian ticket?
God forbid. Christians are not second class citizens in this country.
We saw how bihari made all the security chiefs hausa, Fulani and Muslims.
The Islamic agenda is now in full gear right in front of our very eyes
We saw southern kaduna, benue,Jos, owo in ondo and of cause borno.
We will not be fooled.

Tinubu is an ant, Moghalu is an economist, both men understand the powers of numbers, statistics and demography

Moghalu and Soludo are not your average Politicians, they are vast in knowledge

Politics is a game of numbers

Tell Obi to drop his Muslim VP and pick a Christian..

He also can test his popularity in Nigeria

Tinubu and his urchins can keep slaving .. Muslim Muslim is the hallucinations and dreams of slaves

Even their masters ain’t pleased with such mumurity

If their masters can pay over 7 million naija delta youth monthly to sell Nigeria crude without qualms and maintain peace in Niger delta

Common sense no tell yoruba god that his masters will discard his foolishness for the benefit of one Nigeria

Tinubu being more Islam than Dan Fodio

Foolish Yoruba god


Power to the people
North 2023

Come back and post your dishonest ramblings when the Muric will be able to swallow such pills.
I come dey miss that guy wey dey cancel your post,bcus honestly speaking you hardly ever make sense

What I have continued to ask is "Why any Muslim will be confortable with a Muslim-Muslim ticket"

Every religion preaches justice. And I beleive that no Muslim will allow a Christian-Christian ticket.
How can we be preaching nation building and allow injustice to thrive?
Is the injustice and nepotism from Buhari not given us enough lesson?
Why?

Our nation cannot host any world tournament, cannot make progress et all
And some people are only interested in tribalism. Who do us this thing abeg?

Is it not the funny man who asked where are the cows? This old man is unstable.

OBI IS THE ANSWER TO NIGERIA UNITY.
WE CANNOT HAVE ANOTHER FULANI AFTER 8 YEARS OF ATIKU,

WE CANNOT HAVE A MUSLIM MUSLIM TICKET IN A RELIGIOUS DIVERSE COUNTRY LIKE NIGERIA

Please don't quote me if you have nothing reasonable to say.

Election day too far

Let Big brother Naija start, let Premier league EPL and UEFA start all this noisemakers would disappear

Awolowo and Azikiwe already set the precedents for same-faith Christian-Christian tickets and nobody made a fuss about it. Those making noise are doing so because they know this Tinubu-Shetima combo is the ticket to beat, else all their ariwo doesn't even make sense, when it's not as if there aren't other alternative parties/candidates to pick from.

Funnily, majority of them are first timer in voting in Nigeria election . They have no clue about the process it takes to get accredited, queue before voting.

The have no idea about the roles of party agents. 774 local government, each local government with at least 15 wards, 5 polling units in each wards.

How many agents would be required for that? Do they have money to pay the agents when the opposition can easily buy them with attractive money.

Which company would be printing the ballot papers? Do they have any affiliation or connection with any of the candidates.

They think winning an election is by cominbonline to be ranting and accusing others. They would learn in a bitter way.

Infact the learning would like to be continued after the election cos the have messed up everywhere while campaigning

I saw one of their Campaign posters asking people to Thumb print for Labour party

I just laughed.... This people don't even know the right finger to vote with and would risk vote cancelation using thumbs instead of Ika ilabe

They are just going to waste their time and get more enemies for their region

Awolowo ran with an igbo Christian in 1979 and nobody said kpim against it. Zik also picked a Christian vice. The Muslim North didn't make an issue of it. In that close election of '79, Awolowo got 4.9-million votes as against Shagari's 5.6-million. In 1983, Awolowo picked a Muslim vice candidate and the margin between he and Shagari was 4-milion+. Anyone against Muslim-muslim ticket is free to vote against it. Enough of the noise.

So many of them would have one or 2 excuses before the election, whether by relocation, busy with important things or just don't have strength to go through the election process.

The real Nigeria voters, thugs oo, rain or or scotchy sun, they would face through that process and still cast their votes .

How would the mobilization of grassroots voters look like without grassroots mobilizers being motivated with cash? An alien Party thinking they can gain popularity within a year to the election when others have been preparing for same popularity for decades..

In few months time, their insults and attacks would germinate into full and sentiments would take over the rest before the election

Chikena!!!

Mark my words, If Muslim president and vice president take over from Buhari, more christian hating Fulani terrorist will move over to Nigeria from Mali and take over the forest in southern Nigeria.

2023 is not 1993, there was no Boko Haram, ISWAP, or bandits in Nigeria in 1993.

D way ipob jump on every story typing jagons is laughable.....just as dey use to call Nigeria zoo and insult every other tribe of wanting to force them to remain in Nigeria instead of biafra.......nw dey have a new bribe and dey have abandoned d criminal head of terrorism of ipob kanu

Keep mute forever

May God bless this man called Moghalu. It's unfortunate where this religious bigotry had taken us, it's not specific to one religion though, both religions' leaders use it to toy with the brains of their gullible followers.

Anyways, I am voting for COMPETENCY and only Tinubu guarantees that among the main contestants. He's durable and his legacies can stand the test of time, unlike one fake ass with his OBIdient mumu ers that has no legacy to show after wasting 8years as governor, his only achievement was using tax payers money to establish companies outside the country in the name of his children, yet his stooges made him a saint overnight.
