Tinubu strikes deal with G-5 govs in London - Daily Trust (Daily Trust)

Indication emerged on Thursday that the Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

If Tinubu wins the presidential election, the momentum might favour APC in the state, especially those PDP leaders working for Atiku who might work against the governor to pay him back. So they can decide to work for him and negotiate his return to the party after the poll, ensuring PDP still controls the state. A similar thing was re-echoed when the Ebonyi governor visited the state,” he said. “It is not true that he has met Atiku. Although Ortom, Ugwuanyi and Ikpeazu are seeking senatorial seats, Makinde’s ambition is the most threatened considering the dynamics of Oyo politics. “So when those things happen, the constitution of the party will deal with them. So, he would likely scale through again,” one of the allies said. The governors have been weighing options between Tinubu and the Presidential Candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi. The party takes action after due consideration of all the issues. Since former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar emerged as the flag bearer of their party, they have been calling for the resignation of the PDP national chairman, Iyorchia Ayu. Wike had recently foreclosed supporting Atiku, saying he would make his candidate for the presidency known to the public next month. “Whether Ortom supports Obi or Tinubu, it will not affect his senatorial bid.

WIKE AND THE GANG GO TO LONDON (THISDAY Newspapers)

The Wike rebel gang's meeting in London promises to ruffle political permutations at home, writes Bolaji Adebiyi. It's like the rebellion in the Peoples ...

The task of getting the electorate to vote one way in the presidential ballot and vote the other way in the senatorial and federal constituency polls on the same spot may not be that easy except, of course, they have it all wrapped up. Wike, in particular, literarily had to go to war to return in 2019 as all the military and police formations in his state were deployed against him. It’s definitely a rough road ahead of them except they have the right political strategy to navigate the delicate forthcoming contest. Tinubu, who was the sixth governor, cautioned against the implication of the conspiracy and refused to go along with them. For instance, would they be able to vote for APC presidential candidate and at the same time switch allegiance to the PDP senatorial and federal constituency candidates? In that federal election, the PDP won the presidential election while the AC won all three senatorial seats and the 24 federal constituencies seats in the state. But a more appropriate analogy occurred during the 2011 presidential election in the same state. This forced the party to present Yomi Edu, thought to be a compromise candidate. But in practical politics, no serious-minded politician engages the process to make a point. But the majority of the gang trends away from the LP candidate on the ground that he lacks the concrete political structure on the ground to win a presidential fight across 36 states and Abuja as well as 774 local government councils. It’s like the rebellion in the Peoples Democratic Party has reached a point of no return. A day after the first dry Xmas in decades, the news broke of the trip of the G5 governors to London to meet.
