Tanko accuses Tinubu of preparing ground for violence (Guardian)

Chief spokesperson of Labour Party (LP) Presidential Campaign Council, Yunusa Tanko, has indicated that the speech by All Progressives.

“I don’t think it’s appropriate to go to a civilised clime and start talking about power grabbing in a U.K. How can a man who wants to govern over 200 million Nigerians use such words? “It’s saddening to hear one of us, the most experienced politician in Nigeria, talking in this manner, with people clapping and hailing him.”

Tinubu and the Chatham House Drama (THISDAY Newspapers)

Eddy Odivwri. Last Monday, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu , the APC presidential candidate in the 2023 election went to London. No, he didn't go for medicals.

We should also go back to the teaching and learning of Vernacular as a subject in the lower classes. That is why I think the first step towards the indigenization of our languages in schools is to commission a team of Curriculum experts to carefully develop teachable curricula of all the languages, at least to primary and secondary school levels. It was noted, at the time, and even now, that as noble and desirable as the idea is, it will face enormous challenges. In all, the Chatham House episode would have been an added advantage for Tinubu’s candidacy if he managed it well, even though it is seen as a superfluous effort to impress the Diaspora audience whose electoral value is zero, at the expense of the Nigerian audience/voters who would indeed decide to support Tinubu or not. Is what is good for the goose not also good for the gander? That is the sequence, not the anti-clockwise mode Tinubu is pointing to us. In 1990, as minister for Education, Professor Babs Fafunwa of blessed memory had suggested strongly that teaching and learning in the lower classes should be done in the mother tongue of the children. Indeed, the Chatham House encounter was a veritable ground to assess Tinubu’s understanding of the Nigerian problems, the template of his solutions, his physical gait and composure, his oratorial skill (if any) and any area of his innate strength that can cover up for his natural drawbacks, etc. It is remarkable that even if he had a fantastic and impressive outing in the UK, it would count for little in his electability, as there is no Diaspora voting yet in the Nigerian democratic quest. I think that is unkind and somewhat insulting to the Nigerian press. One of the ladies who asked a question made the point of Nigerians wanting to hear directly from Tinubu and not his allies and surrogates, but the APC candidate missed the point. But at the Chatham House, Tinubu explained that he is shunning the Nigerian media because he does not want them to make money out of him.

Proof Tinubu'll implement affirmative action — Betta Edu, APC ... (Vanguard)

National Women Leader of the rulung All Progressives Congress, APC., recently made waves at the Chatham House, London, while fielding a question on behalf ...

In Lagos today, because of the employment opportunity he gave to women, majority of the Permanent Secretaries in Lagos State are women. His manifesto clearly stated social inclusion and Empowerment for women and he even said the position will be a minimum number of 35% and not maximum. We have gone to states that are not APC states for intervention and it was the governor that invited women to the hall. He started by saying that he will ensure that women get the 35% affirmative action and it’s not going to be affirmative action for appointment alone but affirmative action for everything. We are hopeful as we are supporting them to cross the line and become the actual candidates. Majority of those women were not APC women and they all benefitted from it as long as they were able to get to the venue. In appointments to the boards, parastatals etc, 35% of the leadership will be women. In all the persons that have put out their manifestos across the country, one thing I can boldly tell you is that Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu was the only one who expressly stated what he wanted to do for women and he was specific. We want to be at the front burner and we want to be maintainstreamed. During the launch of Women Campaign team, the president said he was putting together a team to look into it and present it back to the house, believing that this second time, it will scale through. There is the unconditional cash transfer under the ministry of Humanitarian Affairs 70% of the beneficiaries are women at the grassroot. Basically it’s the role the women want to play in the incoming administration and we need to change that narrative right now.

Tinubu candidacy and Chatham House charade (Daily Sun)

You would notice that the speech delivered by the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu,

But beyond that ideal of optimism, is the reality of the unique absurdity of our setting that is underlined by the abuse of the so-called incumbency factor – a euphemism for vote manipulation by the incumbent or ruling party. His profound reforms in finance, communications, labour and economy, encapsulated in his New Deal, provided the platform for the US to announce its leadership of the world. How, for instance, would the Women Leader of a party be the one to explain to Nigerians and the international community the candidate’s agenda for health, if elected? There are still chances to ensure that we do not fall into the same pit in 2023. In boxing, he is the one in the ring. There is need for the APC flag bearer to come clean on his thoughts and intentions for Nigeria. That is why being the standard-bearer of a political party, is a big deal – a contest for serious minds. He rather ducked and directed the questions to his stooges. If he is elected president, he becomes the repository of the nation’s sovereignty. It gave him the chance to address nagging questions on his health, his past, his academic attainments and his real identity – issues that his opponents have serially feasted on in mocking him. President) the presidency is not a prize to be won, but a duty to be done. It falls into our position here, some time ago, on the need for the flag bearers to assume their offices and speak directly to Nigerians on their agenda for the nation and how they intend to go about them.

The February 2023 Presidential Elections will be a watershed moment for Nigeria and her peoples. To borrow the viral parlance on social media, “Tinubu is Buhari Pro Max”! All in the full glare of a global audience! For how long shall the men (and Women) of the APC lie to Nigerians? For how long shall the APC dwell in its throes of monumental deceit? This is the worst disservice APC can mete out on a hapless fragile old man. Unfortunately, the All Progressives Congress (APC) are not a God-fearing bunch. His aged shell now a sad reminder of a man who once rode princely on a king’s horse. Tinubu on the Chatham house stage was like a caged pigeon who has been slammed by a pick axe. Tinubu has consistently and persistently displayed signs of Amnesia, and Dementia: maybe a case of a progressively deteriorating Alzheimer’s (a degenerative brain disease that causes dementia). As the audience jeered, and laughed, I could not join the laughter. Tinubu’s handlers not only rubbished Chatham House, but also ridiculed the Nigeria nation and her peoples before the global community.

After several attempts at see a doctor at the general hospital; Luck shined on us the following week when the Governor (Tinubu) came visiting, witnessed the lackadaisical attitudes of the nurses and thereafter instructed nurses close by 5pm which is applicable till date and that all children undergoing surgery must be attended to free of charge. Weeks after a POP was placed on the hand; upon removal the surgeon on call discovered that the hand has began to rotten and required an urgent surgery and thereafter we were referred to Eko general hospital where in the past nurses are quick to close work by 2pm.

OPINION: A Chatham House Of Horror (thewillnigeria)

December 10, (THEWILL) – Chatham House, while trying to repackage and market Bola Ahmed Tinubu, ended up de-marketing itself.

For how long shall the men (and Women) of the APC lie to Nigerians? What excuse does APC’s litany of propagandists and spinners have to explain away the actions of a man who had to read his own Date of Birth from a slip of paper handed to him? The Guest Speaker morphed into the Moderator, albeit to the embarrassing chagrin of a global audience. I could barely watch the sad melancholic display of a man who, like ‘Elesin Oba’, in Wole Soyinka’s classic “Death and the King’s Horseman”, was too far gone in his hubristic decline. Tinubu on the Chatham house stage was like a caged pigeon that has been slammed by a pick axe. Tinubu’s infamous, yet half-expected comedy of errors, turned an otherwise revered platform into a “Chatham House of Horror” or (to bring the adjective nearer home), it was the “Chatham House of Commotion.”
