@dawisu Go get a life.

ADC/NDC: A BLESSING IN DISGUISE! With Obi and Kwankwaso aligning with the NDC, this shift could turn into an unintended advantage for the coalition. While many Nigerians, myself inclusive, had hoped for a single, united coalition, it’s reasonable to assume that Tinubu would have deployed every available resources at his disposal, including the courts, to keep the ADC off the ballot. But now, with the coalition effectively split into two blocs, ADC and NDC, that calculation changes. If Tinubu continues targeting the ADC alone, it would risk leaving the NDC, backed by Obi and Kwankwaso, as the sole opposition platform. That could prove politically costly for Tinubu. On the other hand, moving against both ADC and NDC would raise serious concerns domestically and internationally, potentially casting doubt on Nigeria’s democratic credibility in general. In that context, the more likely scenario i forsee happening, is that Tinubu allows both parties (ADC and NDC) to contest, resulting in a divided opposition heading into 2027. If that happens, we may see a repeat of the 2023 pattern at the presidential level (Cos this will definitely favour Tinubu) while ADC and NDC make significant gains in National Assembly races, particularly across the North and East. Regardless of how this unfolds, I remain committed to the ADC. My hope is that both ADC and NDC will dial down tensions and keep sight of a broader objective. Politics has a way of bringing unlikely partners back to the table, and cooperation, in one form or another, may yet prove necessary! Salihu Tanko Yakasai, Arise and shine, Nigeria 🤝

@justkency @Morris_Monye Is the goal to better the lives of Nigerians or to get APC out of power?

Not true, I think this NDC moves just consolidated power for Tinubu. Peter Obi is moving like someone working for Tinubu. If the goal is to get the APC out of power, then a solidified house is what is required and not a divided one. We are yet to factor the time wasted just to pick a political party and the APC is just waiting, watching and observing.

A divided opposition beat BAT in 2023. We just needed to be more ruthless and clinical in defending those votes

@SenSharafaAlli @CityBoyMedia Sen, 1.2million votes kere Sir, We should be targeting between 1.8 to 2 million votes in Oyo. A lot needs to be done in other to mobilise and galvanise the grassroots

Today, I received the executives of the City Boys Movement @CityBoyMedia during their solidarity visit to my residence in Bodija. I also declared my total support for the group. I am so happy seeing the youths involved in the political system. Our plan is to deliver 1.2 million votes for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT , GCFR, in Oyo State. I also pledged eight vehicles to strengthen the group’s mobilisation activities ahead of the 2027 general elections. @PBATMediaCentre #BSA27

@Dr_dabo1 Yes o, Obikwa for NDC, Atikumechi for ADC. Powerful combination to unseat Tulumbu.

Decamping to NDC is not a sudden agenda, they sent Dickson to the party long time ago to secure the party for them incase tinubu destabilise the coalition,and their prediction was right,now It’s too late for tinubu to create chaos in NDC.

@dmightyangel Delete this thing. You don't have to cast every strategy. We know u sabi but it's okay to act like you don't know sometimes.

Kwa: Asiwaju, I'm ready to join APC PBAT: Naa Kwankwa, don't worry yourself, I have another simple assignment for you.... Kwa: Your Excellency, I'm all ears... PBAT: Go and join the main opposition party.... Kwa: Haaa, Asiwaju, PDP is dead... PBAT: I know, join the one everyone is moving to....ADC Kwa: Oh, that's true. Even Gringory has joined in December.... PBAT: Good, this is March, you also join them. Kwa: But Atiku, Amaechi and Peter Obi wants to be President also. What's my gain if I join with my ambition intact? PBAT: You know Obi is still a boy and a betrayer, he will betray his boss again because of his ambition. Kwa: So where do I come in, I'm still not getting it your Excellency. PBAT: You know OBIdients creates scenarios in their head and run around celebrating it.... Kwa: Hahahaha, you know them too well... PBAT: Yea, OBIdients are my tools, they're always very useful for me, like they were in 2023. Kwa: So I'm listening Sir.... PBAT: OBIdients will begin their usual hallucination of OBI OR NOTHING, Seeing you in ADC from the North and Kwankwasiya movement, they'll want you to be the VP to Obi.... Kwa: Awusu Binllahi.....God forbid.... PBAT: Calm down KwaKwa, play along, don't say NO, don't say YES...No one will be able to quote you... Kwa: Ok, I'm still not getting it... PBAT: You know the greed of Atiku, he can never differ today for tomorrow gain, that has been his problem since Obasanjo era, that also is the problem of his boy Obi... Kwa: That's true, they both want it NOW SYNDROME.... PBAT: Obi can never contest, he always wants free thing. He will run away at the last and dark hour from any crisis... Kwa: That one is in his blood your Excellency, I know he will run away. That's why I'm confused about this plan... PBAT: That's the game, Before he runs away from ADC, Move to the same platform he wants to move to. That way, he will be encouraged that you're game on and his Social Media noisemakers will do the rest... Kwa: Okaaaaaayyyyyyyyy🥹🥹🥹🥹 PBAT: That's it, ginger him to move to the new platform.....It is his constitutional right after all..... don't worry about the rest. I don't need you in APC.... Kwankwaso: Gaskia, your Excellency, you're the Master strategist, I need to come and learn politics more🙌🙌🙌 PBAT: Ok, bye, I don't have time for politics, I need to focus on Governance till my last moment since there's no serious opposition figures to worry about, I must give my best to Nigerians while my boys handle politics.....🚶🚶🚶 Kwankwaso: YOUR EXCELLENCY🙌🙌🙏🙏

@DrDanny2030 @Sphil33 Useless peter obi is who you are hyping. You will learn by force.

See, if Peter Obi leaves ADC because he can't win the primaries, I'm not going to follow y'all and do this waka waka .why can't we stay one place? I've stated that the main interest of every Nigerian now should be how to kick out APC from ASO Rock. Whether it's Amechi that gets the ticket or Atiku or Peter Obi, or Kwankwaso, we need to support these people and have a collective goal and achieve it. APC formed the same coalition in 2025, and none of them divided the party. Everyone sticked to it. Tinubu was one of the masterminders, but he was patient, and now he's the president. If after forming this coalition and giving people hope and later we Radical obidients push Peter Obi to get the ticket in another party, I'm sorry, Tinubu will just be one side laughing at you guys while getting the second term and third term.

STATEHOUSE PRESS RELEASE PRESIDENT TINUBU NAMES BIANCA ODUMEGWU-OJUKWU AS MINISTER OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS, NOMINATES AMB. SOLA ENIKANOLAIYE AS MINISTER OF STATE President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has appointed Ambassador Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu as Nigeria's Minister of Foreign Affairs, following the resignation of Ambassador Yusuf Tuggar, who stepped down to participate in the 2027 elections. Ambassador Odumegwu-Ojukwu previously served as Minister of State in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In the same vein, the President has nominated Ambassador Sola Enikanolaiye as the new Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, subject to Senate confirmation. Until his nomination, Ambassador Enikanolaiye, from Kogi State, served as Senior Special Assistant to the President on Foreign Affairs and International Relations. Enikanolaiye is a distinguished diplomat and seasoned public servant with over three decades of exemplary service in Nigeria’s foreign service. He has previously served as Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and held key diplomatic postings in Addis Ababa, Belgrade, Ottawa, London, and New Delhi. The President noted that these appointments are part of ongoing efforts to reposition Nigeria’s foreign policy architecture for greater efficiency, strategic engagement, and stronger global partnerships. President Tinubu congratulates the appointees and urges them to work diligently to promote Nigeria’s national interest, advance economic diplomacy, foster regional stability, and safeguard the welfare of Nigerians at home and abroad.

@james_harmless @aonanuga1956 Cry me a river

@aonanuga1956 If Amoda Ogunlere like, let him appoint OJukwu, he's a cr00k and unfit to be the president. 🙄🙄

@dipoaina1 What should Nigeria do? To invade mali with what? A problem we are dealing with within our borders and we are yet to completely eradicate, you want to us to do what exactly in Mali?

Kidal has fallen!!! Tuareg separatist forces (FLA), alongside JNIM, have seized the city and taken the Governor’s Palace after coordinated nationwide attacks. Home to about 25,000 people and a key Tuareg stronghold, the city is once again a flashpoint in Mali’s war. Jesus Christ 😭 x.com/visegrad24/sta…

@bode_maxwell @AnasAhmadTJ @gimbakakanda Adamu Ciroma's only qualification was B.A in History from ABU, zero finance background.

@AnasAhmadTJ @gimbakakanda To even question the qualifications of both Wale Edun and Oyedele to be named a finance ministers must take a cake in the art of sophistry. I agree with @gimbakakanda in his submission on this. These are men with demonstrable unvarnished achievements in the corporate world.

I usually shy away from what may appear as shielding political leaders whose records should speak for them from scrutiny, but this particular argument is both contradictory and hollow on many levels, and here’s why. It begins by praising public sector performance under Adamu Ciroma, a History graduate who rose to govern the Central Bank before becoming Minister of Finance, only to turn around and sneer at people whose credentials were built in fiercely competitive, merit-driven institutions before they entered public service. That logic is hard to follow. Wale Edun is not some accidental occupant of public office. He worked on economic packages across Latin America, the Caribbean, Indonesia and India through the World Bank’s highly selective Young Professionals Programme. He later returned to Nigeria to co-found what became Stanbic IBTC, founded West Africa Ratings, served two terms as Lagos State Commissioner for Finance, and co-founded and chaired Chapel Hill Denham, one of the leading investment banking firms on the continent, which, even in 2026, was ranked the Best ECM Bank in Africa by Global Finance. He was also the first Nigerian in six decades to chair the African Governors Forum of the World Bank. One may disagree with his policies, but one cannot honestly dismiss his professional record. Taiwo Oyedele, on the other hand, rose through the ranks of PwC, one of the four most distinguished accounting firms in the world. In more than two decades of organic growth, he emerged as Fiscal Policy Partner and Africa Tax Leader, with over ten years in top leadership positions. He has chaired major fiscal and tax bodies, contributed to national tax policy design, taught at respected institutions, and built a reputation as one of the country’s most serious voices on fiscal reform. Nobody gets this far by being a fluke. To minimise that kind of professional growth for partisan convenience is sheer partisan mischief. So you are wrong twice: wrong to diminish Wale Edun’s professional record, and wrong again to do the same to Taiwo Oyedele. The former may stem from sincere ignorance of the subject’s career, but the latter seems to reflect the familiar Nigerian disdain for people who did not begin with a fancy degree: an HND holder. You cannot follow Taiwo’s career, or even listen to him speak for a few minutes, and come away thinking he is intellectually hollow. At this point, the only further test critics could demand would be to hand him an exam script on the spot. Because you do not get into a Big Four firm fresh out of a polytechnic if you are not exceptional. As a nation, yes, we must hold public servants to account. But cherry-picking somebody’s academic starting point while ignoring decades of proven excellence in high-performance institutions is not a fair test of merit. Taiwo began as an associate at PwC and rose to become a partner after more than twenty years. Wale Edun built a career across global finance, development institutions, investment, and subnational fiscal administration long before this moment. These institutions are not family shops, but places where you compete with some of the best minds available. So what exactly is the argument here? That an HND earned two and half decades ago should outweigh two and a half decades of demonstrable excellence? That years of leadership, policy work, and technical accomplishment should be invalidated by an old credential simply because partisan politics requires a convenient insult? That makes little sense. What one learns, earns, and proves at the highest levels of professional life far surpasses the mediocrity of the sneers deployed to belittle it. You also may not be a fan of Wale Edun, but you cannot deny that he has one of the most difficult jobs in the country, and the results can be argued with data. But to say he is professionally unqualified is just a ridiculous thesis.

@_dinomelaye Dino, alawada ni ę. You should be acting comedy honestly. You are just wasting your talent. 😄😄😃

ADC will continue to scare Tinubu.

@Hindatu___ @Everyone @otegaogra @woye1 @PBATMediaCentre @officialABAT @dayoisrael @shoga_francis @APCNewMedia @ebirimobinna @EngrAUFarouk Nigerians faced worse hardship under Buhari. The exchange rate spread was a disaster, fuel subsidy under Buahri snowballed, fuel queues around festive seasons was a constant, several companies left Nigeria, workers morale were at the lowest. Japa became a thing.

I have just 3 questions let’s be fair. Some anti-Tinubu voices keep tagging me, asking questions, while others bring constant negativity without facts. So let’s have this conversation, even though I know it may not end anytime soon. 1. Is Bola Ahmed Tinubu the first president Nigerians have ever faced hardship under? 2.Were past administrations suddenly 10/10? 3.Did any of you speak up this strongly about hardship during the previous administration under Muhammadu Buhari? Or is the outrage only loud now? It’s easy to point fingers, but real progress often comes with tough and necessary decisions. Many of the challenges we’re dealing with today didn’t start now they’ve been building over time. I’m not here to convince anyone support who you believe in. But as for me, President Tinubu remains my choice.”

@BrotherPossible Yoruba in itself is a global brand. Tunde is happy and fortunate to be a good ambassador of the Yoruba brand. His brand will continue to grow and there is nothing people like you will ever do to hinder him. Next time I see u try attack him, I will t be this charitable with words

My own is that they should not turn this Tunde Global Brand to a Yoruba Brand. He should not let it happen. That's what happened to Ogbeni Dipo. The guy was a professional development brand for the globe on this App until you guys forced him to become something else today. It now looks like only Yoruba people patronize him. I remember when they listed him as a speaker with Seyi Law in one Yoruba thing. There's nothing bad with that, but make una no do that nonsense to Tunde. I pray he doesn't fall into that trap. Make una leave that guy. Once he starts defending himself or tweeting that he's dragged because he's Yoruba, that's how Dipo went. You people should leave that guy alone.

@TheoAbuAgada This your paid gig isn't giving at all. They need to cancel your appointment

First time in history seeing retired police officers protesting. Contractors are protesting. Health workers are protesting. Police are protesting. Tinubu has succeeded in turning everyone into a protester. I have never seen anything like this.

@_dinomelaye So this is how you intend to take power from Tinubu? 🤡 🤡 🤡

See Tinubu's Lagos- Calaber Coastal road oooooo
