OSUN TAKEAWAYS:

And APC lost #OsunDecides202

PDP won #OsunDecides2022

Congratulations to the winner Ademola Adeleke the Governor elect of Osun State..

A quick take away for me:

1. Politics is all about winning election & obviously ANYONE who can pull it is the candidate!
Nobody should deceive you, everything is all about winning election, has nothing to do with if the candidate can speak phonetics or competent enough.

Settle this and have peace with yourself on irrelevant debates....

If it's about any other thing, Adeleke didn't come close🤣
2. Politics is local....
By now, this shouldn't need any special explanation to anyone again.
Local politics has nothing to do with performance, competence, capacity etc....It's all about "AWA LOKAN" & if you like cross all the Ts, they will vote based on LOCAL SENTIMENT.
Politics is local because if it's about performance, the incumbent Osun Governor @GboyegaOyetola did everything to work for the people. He ensured that many past errors were corrected & let no one come online to say otherwise, the guy is doing well in Osun...
Se bridge la Fe je🤣
3.
The dynamics of local politics is deeply rooted in local sentiment. Oyo and Osun are almost the same in that they hardly see why you should win the 2nd term, this has been a kind of established pattern now & the choice of Adeleke over others show exactly this. Adeleke o🤣🤣
4. Debate is a complete waste of time....

I personally have never seen anything with election debate being organized for candidates be it in Nigeria or anywhere in the World all over...It's just entertainment part of election season...It changes NOTHING About who to vote for.
Yes, in all the Osun Debate, it's obvious that Adeleke has nothing intellectual to bring to the table, but he's d only one that dragged it with the incumbent & eventually pulled through.
No thanks to insiders who stayed within APC to work for him, but that's politics all the sha
5. This settles 2023 choices and debates finally👌👌
My positive take away is that it's now obvious Tinubu made the right choice by picking Shettima as his running mate...If you can't pull the figures in your local politics based on local sentiment, you're as useless as anything.
If you play to the gallery & choose based on noisemakers that laboured in vain without getting 1% of the total vote, you'll have yourself to blame.
Who can give you the figure? That's the language of politics!
If religion can give the figure, PULL IT.
If gender can, PULL IT...
If ethnic/Tribal sentiment is what gives the figure, you better don't listen to noise, go for what will bring the figure for you..
Osun election is a good template to use for whoever wants to make any further noise...Tinubu picking election victory from the North is their pain🤣
Yes, the choice of Shettima as running mate is a good strategy to pull all the necessary figures based on their local sentiments over there.

So, dear Twitter analysts like me, stop hyperventilating...Election is about WINNING & whoever gives the figure is the RIGHT CANDIDATE💪
Watch as the same people that have been talking about DATA, COMPETENCE etc have all been eulogizing Adeleke who didn't show any capacity or competence all through. That tells you they care less about what you're debating with them, it's all about "our candidate winning" for all🤣
Well, e don happen, we don see final result.
Now those ones hiding behind a finger has finally unraveled that they're part of PDP as we've been saying.
Nothing like 3RD FORCE, the election is between APC & PDP+affiliates.

Don't debate Tinubu's choice again o, that's the BEST!💪
Now that DEMOCRACY is not in danger in Osun State, watch as the media play down about the VOTE BUYING debate🤣🤣
Watch as they play down on "competence" debate...

Watch as they play down on what they told you should be the parameters to choose any candidate...ALL NA PROPAGANDA!

TINUBU, THEIR BURDEN BEARER....

This thread is PRIMARILY for APC supporters who have been on my DM since Saturday during #OsunDecides2022

I'll say a few things FAR AWAY from Osun & allow you to extrapolate it to Osun APC crisis between Lasun, Adeoti, Aregbe, Oyetola etc.. Image
In internal crisis management, it is my firm personal perspective that:
1. EVERY SIDE IS RIGHT
2. EVERY SIDE WAS WRONGED
3. CRISIS WILL ONLY RESOLVE IS ONE SIDE IS READY TO DROP HIS RIGHT OR BOTH ARE READY TO SHIFT GROUNDS.

Let me use Tinubu & Ekiti issue, you'll understand..
Check the crisis that removed Oshiomole as Chairman then, how APC lost Edo & many other things...One thing you can't take away as far as I'm concerned is that Gov Fayemi was complicit in all of these. The game was so strange that we were like "how could he be against Tinubu"?

OSUN ELECTION AND THE FUTILITY OF IDEOLOGICAL POLITICS....

A busy day in office it's been....I'll try and say a few things along this line later.....

Summary: Apart from ANALYSIS, there is nothing practicable about ideological politics IF you have any plan of winning election!
1. If you intend to win election, pls drop your IDEOLOGY FIRST & PLAY INTERNAL POLITICS.

Let me start from here. Performance doesn't really win it IF you have issue with internal politics. This has nothing to do with APC, I'm talking about every main political party EVERYWHERE! Image
For example, "Why should I win election to govern a State/Country & spend the same resources I cannot account for on my political base? IDEOLOGICALLY, O WRON GAN NI🤣🤣

Party Chairmen will come with different bills, Iya egbe, Iyaloja, Party excos etc...Which money I go give?🤣

12th July 2012 she gave birth to our 2nd son...Couldn't make it back, was far away.
I returned 2 days later (15th) to see her "going"🤔

She fought to stay back for another 90 days in that Hospital daily UNTIL we saw God's deliverance.
I remembered everything 🙏
#JoyfulMemories ImageImage
I was absent that particular day 10 years ago, but covenant friends were on ground as though it was their headache...Mo Dupe Baba!
#JoyfulMemories
She literally was on her way out, d pain & agony was too much..
How could someone that just gave birth via CS start to cough uncontrollably...Everything bursted..Doctors were scared, did I have option than to mount my watch & calm everyone down that she would stay here? God😭😭

This #ASUUvsFG issue ehn....
What are the REASNABLE demands and which ones are unreasonable demands?

Don't shout, let's be logical and METHODICAL, then we will see the problems & the solutions beyond emotion and blackmails. @ASUUNGR should itemize them in clear terms online.
I don't want to hear it from FG, I want @ASUUNGR to explain how govt has tried (or not) to address each or everyone of them, why did 2009 agreements still linger beyond 2015? What has been done to address those backlogs? Let's hear it directly from ASUU.
#ASUUvsFG
How can an employee dictate to employer that UTAS must be used instead of IPPIS?
If @ASUUNGR can come up with a platform, then why haven't they built other solution for Nigeria's use all d while?
Total autonomy (money inclusive) or Partial Autonomy, what do you want? #ASUUvsFG

FRAUDSTER WITH FALSE KIDNAPPING STORY IN CHURCH

It happened in Ibadan. It happened inside one Redeem Church in Oluyole Estate on the 3rd July 2022 (1st Sunday of July).

Here's the story of the fraudster:
He was given Microphone to give TESTIMONY. So he narrated how he escaped.
He said he was unconscious after entering a vehicle, until he found himself inside the bush along Lagos-Ibadan & he began to run while the kidnappers were shooting...🤣🤣

Summary, he escaped he was left EMPTY as he found his way to that Church.

So, donation of N7K dropped o😇
Yes, you know the emotion that is attached to a sensitive issue of kidnapping, so you wouldn't blame anyone for falling for that Lamba.

No one probed him further, people were "praising God" for rescuing the guy...

Then he sat down waiting for what Church still planned to give!
