The 9th National Assembly shot themselves in the foot by unwittingly removing themselves as delegates for conventions, congresses and primaries. But this 10th Assembly shot themselves in the head. Period!

@HeartMattaz @davido @GboyegaOyetola But he’s jumping from one political party to another.

@davido @GboyegaOyetola All political are desperate except Peter Obi

The most desperate politician in the world is @GboyegaOyetola very embarrassing

@Updateboyx If he had stayed in APC he would probably had a chance as strong contender.

The only way for Kwankwaso to become president in the future would be if he had aligned himself with APC since 2015. All this talk of “he’s building himself for 2031” won’t yield anything. He will end up like Atiku. Party with structures is important in general elections.

@nyerishii @SimFubaraKSC 😀

I just push ona and ona enter,, taaah. APC will not I repeat will not give OPOBO JUDAS @SimFubaraKSC ticket. Nyerishi is in charge completely.

@ennyola0015 I don’t see SIM winning this ticket. BAT needs Wike to deliver Rivers state to him.

Rivers State is an atypical state.✍️ The 2027 politics will be played differently, with a different set of rules.

@WOkene Exactly. He can’t win any primaries

@Solobanzi_ Doomed to fail right

With the introduction of direct primaries, the ADC primaries wouldn’t have been transactional. So why did Peter Obi leave?

@TheresaTekenah Politics is brutal. We are going back to the grassroots.

Direct Primaries no be anybody mate!😭😭 E be like Pa Ned Nwoko is going…going…gone!

@woye1 @OfficialAPCNg Politics is local. PBAT needs politicians with grassroots capacity to win 2027 elections. It doesn’t care about emotions.

Ben Bruce not cleared to contest under @OfficialAPCNg 2: check the rest names. 3: Ben Bruce is Bola Tinubu’s friend ooooo. 4; Politics is local

@DavidsOffor Politics is brutal. Same question everyone is asking. Serving senators are not allowed to participate in the elections.

APC dn knack these people AKPAKO Senator Ben Murray Bruce Banigo Ipalibo (former Wike Deputy Governor) Ojukaye Flag Amachree How can you not clear a serving senator!! Politics sha 😯😂

@TheoAbuAgada Democratic process in Nigeria has been a disaster right now.

Serving Senator Jibrin Echocho speaks on the APC Direct Primary. The senator said he is waiting for INEC and Party officials to arrive the venue of the primary. I am sorry Senator. Nobody is going to come. 😭😂 Talo Ni Ticket.

@woye1 The facts are there.. PBAT’s invisible hand is in this process right now. Can APC survive in the coming years. Gov SIM is likely not getting the ticket in Rivers state, sitting senators and rep members who are members of the party are not getting tickets.

@Solobanzi_ Nah.

Political Primaries vs National Working Committee: BURYING YOUR EMOTIONS. 1: National Working Committee of a political party is the engine room of a party. -(a): it is important to push for your own to be a member of a National Working Committee so as to create a PATHWAY to secure your election during primary. -(b): Same thing happens at The State Working committee and LGA. -(c): Govs put their own as members of State Working Committee. 2: Primary: the Gov largely controls the structure to win Presidential, Gubernatorial, Senatorial, House of Representatives and House of Assembly primaries. -(a): You must be in the Unity/Progressive list to win Primaries. 3: Mistakes: Politics is not about EMOTION but CALCULATIONs and ALIGNED INTERESTS. -(a): once an aspirant realizes that the structure is skewed against you. You should have defected to another party instead of taking a risk. -(b): that is what @PeterObi and @KwankwasoRM did by leaving embattled ADC to NDC. -(c): Obasanjo deprived Olusegun Mimiko to be PDP Gubernatorial candidate in Ondo against Agagu. -(d): Mimiko left for Labour Party. -(e): Mimiko pursued his case with the help of Bola Tinubu then. He won and he was the Gov of Ondo state. -(f): Segun Mimiko was the first Gov of the Labour Party. 4: In USA, Trump is also imposing his own favorite as Senatorial and House of Representatives candidates by supporting them to win PRIMARIES. Nothing new under the sun. 5: Learn to relate with members of NWC, SWC and Govs. 6: focus on STRATEGY not EMOTIONS: elections are won through numbers, resource allocation and leverage and “NOT ONLINE OUTRAGE OR SENTIMENTALITY. 7: There is nothing like INJUSTICE during Primaries. -(a): Weigh your winning streak or defect to another party. -(b): Primary is not the end but general election will determine the final outcome. 8: Compensation: if you lose primary, (either by consensus or election), the party can compensate you with an appointment or the party can also forget you. Fight and don’t give up. 9: Lagos model: Sept 29, 2018, Hamzat Obafemi stepped down for Jide Sanwo Olu. He was compensated as the Deputy Gov nominee then. Emulate this. 10: don’t CRY ooo because POLITICS IS NOT ABOUT EMOTION. It is about SELF-INTEREST as demonstrated by @PeterObi to NDC. 11: Enjoy your week.

@TheoAbuAgada This primaries is becoming something else. APC is gradually turning to PDP

FLASH: Serving Senator Jibrin Echocho Arrives at the Venue of the Kogi East APC senatorial Primary as INEC Officials Remain Absent Nearly Two Hours After Scheduled Start. Some sources have just told me that he is unlikely to emerge. The governor and Yahaya Bello are opting for the SDP’s 2023 governorship candidate, Murtala Ajaka.

@Big_Sinudo This is crazy.

How can a sitting governor's name be missing in the APC list for senators? Nuhu Ribadu isn't even a transparent politician. Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri, go fight this one 🤣

@ZazaXchange @only1topboyy But he has told us “let heaven fall” that he wants to see it happen. SIM might likely not get this ticket from all political permutations. With NDC and ADC in this presidential race only Wike can deliver votes for APC in Rivers he has the grassroots.

@Solobanzi_ @only1topboyy I beg to differ. That's not how it is supposed to be. If everyone is ruthless like him, the state will be set on fire 🔥

In Rivers State, a man contested in the APC Presidential Primaries in 2022 and even stepped down for the incumbent President, who was also an aspirant at the time. Three years later, having chosen to support the President rather than run against him, he decided to contest for Senate. Yet, he was screened out allegedly because he is not aligned with a Minister who is not even a member of the APC 😂😂😂😂

@Mr_Pucca Do they have? Is anyone from PDP going to contest against Sir Felix? Whatever is going on hasn’t happened in Rivers State before. Wike is a master in this game.

Looking forward to my party, PDP list of cleared aspirants.

@ZazaXchange @only1topboyy I can’t agree less… Wike is a master in this game.

@only1topboyy But unfortunately, no Rivers State man dead or alive can fight or withstand Wike’s pressure. He will deliver the state either by fire or force to Tinubu. Tinubu doesn't like weak people, that's why he'd prefer to work with Wike instead of Fubara

@ennyola0015 Till we from the Niger Delta get you arrested 😒

Poison 😩

@katah01 @only1topboyy Exactly!

@Solobanzi_ @only1topboyy After TINUBU no more Apc again
