Between Rufai Oseni and APC Chieftain Farouk over failed Tinubu promises
Farouk: Tinubu Made Election Promises on Certain Assumptions, But Getting in Office, You Are Faced With the Truth. When you are in opposition, there are certain promises you make, and by the time you get into office, you will see that certain promises cannot be fulfilled”
Rufai: So why did you deceive the masses with a promise when you’ve not done your study before making the promises?
Farouk:
Dear Senator Henry Seriake Dickson @iamHSDickson
While I take my time to properly address your allusion of me not playing by the rules which I consider very disingenuous seeing how I followed the process and even when you had insisted there would be no primaries for senate I let things go and asked my teeming supporters to focus on the bigger picture, I toured the FCT pacifying my supporters and party people who rightfully felt disrespected as they were all waiting at their respective headquarters for primaries that never happened. (I played field politics, I never waited for anyone to give me ticket), I would like you as the National leader to watch this video again!
This part of the interview was so painfully appalling to watch. It looked as if you were insecure and in competition with your Presidential Candidate. Your first one on one interview after primaries and instead of selling your candidates and giving confidence to people on how set the road to winning the 2027 election was, you made it about yourself.
With all due respect sir, it looks as if you consider the NDC a Special Purpose Vehicle whose aim has been achieved just by being registered instead of a Political Party whose aim is to win the 2027 General election decisively!!!! The registration of NDC should be a means to an end and not an end in itself.
As a leader of a Political party, your number one job in that interview was to pacify aspirants many of whom are rightfully aggrieved and secondly to call on supporters to bear with the party and support it but you ended up antagonising the very people you would need to win election. Every vote counts! A leader must stoop to conquer!
No one can take away your leadership of NDC, no one is interested in that! The focus is on Nigeria is winning the 2027 election!
It looked as if you are fighting a war no one is waging with you. You don't have anything to prove to anyone, just lead! It is also interesting how as a leader i see you shifting the blame with any process that doesn't go well or is called out. Even in this statement below, you did! Take all responsibility! The party is young. It was overwhelmed. Mistakes will be made. Accepting the mistakes and being accountable is how the party will get better.
There is a whole battle ahead of us. Rescuing Nigeria from the current state it is in, should be the main focus not people's fragile ego!
Let me round up with some words from Jim Rohn: IF WHAT YOU DID YESTERDAY IS STILL LOOKING BIG TO YOU TODAY, THEN YOU ARE NOT DOING ENOUGH!!!
Sometimes what appears to be a setback is actually divine protection.
With everything coming to light today, one cannot help but wonder whether the 2023 presidential election was a blessing in disguise for Peter Obi.
What we are witnessing today suggests that he would have had to contend with many hidden snakes masquerading as allies.
As events continue to unfold, masks are falling, loyalties are being tested, and genuine supporters are being separated from opportunists.
In the end, time remains the ultimate revealer of character.
Peter Obi - It is wrong to settle the bill of a drunk while he is still at the bar, he has to come out of the bar first before you settle what he has drunk before.
Peter Obi's talk at the Platform is still one of the greatest political talks to date. >>>>>>>>>

@deuceslamba77@chuckfav@markokoyeII It's always You ijits.
How about you focus on you region where fulani terrorists are unaliving your kin sallah rams?
Well, would you look at that. I guess Chat doesn't consider the Bible a "sacred text". I am curious if it would have quoted the Quran directly if it had been a more “peaceful” verse, and if it still would have directly quoted the Bible had they been more violent verses.

A man that rejected land in Anambra as a sitting governor, rejected land gift in Abuja, left billions of naira for Anambra state, donates billions of his personal money to schools up till today and you claim the same man is now looking for N10m bribe from his fellow Aspirants to fund his campaign🤣🤷. At least you would have looked for something that Nigerians can believe small.
Nigeria will be OK ✌️🇳🇬
So, Tinubu is prosecuting a citizen for sharing a fake AI-generated audio of him.
Shouldn't Tinubu himself be prosecuted for sharing an AI generated image of himself to deceive the Nigerian people?
Remember, his office posted a Grok-generated image of Tinubu with the Rwandan president. Did they really meet? Where? What were they doing? Who knows?
Hypocritical tyrant.

PRESS STATEMENT
OBIDIENT MOVEMENT REJECTS THE APPOINTMENT OF THEO ABU AGADA AND DEMANDS ACCOUNTABILITY FROM NDC LEADERSHIP AND TANKO YUNUSA
The attention of the Obidient Movement has been drawn to the appointment of Theo Abu Agada as Director of New Media and Strategic Communications by the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC.
We condemn this appointment in the strongest possible terms.
This appointment is not just insensitive. It is a direct insult to their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, the Obidient Movement, and the millions of Nigerians who have stood firmly behind a movement built on competence, character, justice, accountability, and people-centred politics.
A party that claims to value the Obidient Movement cannot turn around and appoint a man whose public record is filled with repeated attacks, insults, and open hostility towards their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and Obidients. You cannot disrespect the largest support base within your political structure and still pretend you are building unity.
Theo Abu Agada has publicly described supporters of their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, in insulting terms. He has questioned Peter Obi’s capacity, portrayed him as a threat to free speech, accused his supporters with reckless language, and repeatedly made statements that show clear contempt for the same movement NDC now expects to energise its public communication.
Even worse, he once claimed that Peter Obi had “unleashed his IPOB supporters on Nigerians.” That kind of statement goes beyond political disagreement. It is a dangerous attempt to link their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and Obidients to IPOB, and by extension paint the movement with the brush of extremism and terrorism. No serious political party that respects Peter Obi or the Obidient Movement should reward such a person with a sensitive communications position.
Can NDC appoint someone who has publicly insulted and disparaged Rabiu Kwankwaso or the Kwankwasiyya Movement into a sensitive communications position and expect Kwankwasiyya supporters to clap for it? Can NDC reward someone who has repeatedly attacked Kwankwaso and still claim it respects his movement?
If the answer is no, then why does NDC think it can do this to their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and the Obidient Movement?
The NDC leadership must explain how such a person passed through any serious political vetting process for a sensitive communications role. New Media and Strategic Communications is not a decoration. It is the public voice of a party. Appointing someone with a history of hostility towards their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and the Obidient Movement into that office sends a very clear message, and the message is disrespect.
This also raises serious questions about the role and effectiveness of Tanko Yunusa as the leader of the Obidient Movement.
What exactly is Tanko doing?
In the Labour Party, he was always seen around the leadership, taking pictures and standing close to Peter Obi, yet the same Labour Party repeatedly disrespected Peter Obi and the movement he was supposed to represent.
In ADC, the same pattern repeated itself. The Obidient Movement was treated with disregard, and its value was undermined.
Now in NDC, the same thing is happening again. The party leadership continues to disregard the Obidient Movement, even though Obidients remain the largest, loudest, and most active stakeholder group in this political alignment. That disregard has now reached their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, directly through the appointment of someone whose public record shows open hostility towards him.
So we ask again: what exactly is Tanko doing?
Is he there to defend the movement, or to take pictures?
Is he there to protect Peter Obi’s political leverage, or to stand in rooms like a mannequin?
Is he there to represent Obidients, or to lock comment sections whenever people ask uncomfortable questions?
Tanko Yunusa must answer a simple question: what the hell is he doing?
The Obidient Movement cannot continue to be treated as a crowd for rallies, online engagement, and political optics, while those who openly insult the movement are put in strategic positions where they will continue the insults.
We demand the following:
1. The immediate reversal of Theo Abu Agada’s appointment.
2. A public explanation from the NDC leadership on how this appointment was approved.
3. A formal apology to their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and the Obidient Movement.
4. A clear commitment from NDC that no individual with a public record of hostility towards Peter Obi or the Obidient Movement will be placed in any sensitive strategic communication role.
5. A full explanation from Tanko Yunusa on what he is doing as leader of the Obidient Movement and why this pattern of disrespect keeps repeating itself under his watch.
The Obidient Movement is not a spare tyre. We are not political furniture. We are not a movement to be used when convenient and disrespected when power is being shared.
If NDC wants the energy, credibility, reach, and sacrifice of Obidients, then it must treat the movement with respect.
Anything short of that is unacceptable.

For and on behalf of Obidients, since the leadership of the Movement is sleeping.
