BUHARI & NNPC UBER-NIZATION...

One thing you should do constantly on #TwitterNG is to have enough sense to learn, because you will never know everything but you can learn about everything.

What did Buhari's NNPC action mean? Is it PRIVATIZATION or COMMERCIALIZATION?🤣
Like them, hate them, Buhari/Osinbajo ticket is the best deal Nigeria has ever gotten in that office in Aso Rock & this present 9th Assembly is the best deal Nigeria has ever gotten in its democratic era since 1999.
What @MBuhari did with @nnpclimited will be part of his LEGACY.
So NNPC (Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation) is now NNPC Limited (Nigerian National Petroleum Company)..

It was like IMPOSSIBLE for 20 years now, then Buhari did it. What did he do to NNPC in laymen terms? He did what I simply call UBER-NIZATION of our family property🤣🤣
200 Million Nigerians as a family has this nice CAR they use called NNPC. It is our property but the usage is being abused by the few privileged ones in the family. Sometimes, they take it to night club, messed it up & still asked our family to repair the car & pay the driver.
Since our previous heads of family were also enjoying the abuse of our common property, they wouldn't do anything to change the abuse of the car even when we've said it severally in the family house that something must change in the use of this CAR for more than 20 years...
One of the intending family heads said he would kuku sell this our family car so that we will not be wasting our family budget on it....The problem was that just like the previous family properties he sold, Akotileta said he would sell it to his USUAL friends that underpaid us🤣
The last time Atiku had opportunity to be part of the heads of the family, he sold one of our cars (ALSCON), the car was worth $3.5 billion, Atiku said he made mistake & sold it for $250 million when there were others who wanted to pay billions.
You no go lead this family again!
That is why Baba Obasanjo under whose watch Atiku sold (privatized) those cars said God will not forgive him if he supported Atiku to still be head of this 200million family o...

Baba @atiku, you no go lead this family again o, no waste your time....
After 3 decades, Buhari didn't just set up reform about #PIB, he signed the bill into law & that forever shall be an all time achievement.
If SETTING UP REFORM was your standard of past achievement, pls UPGRADE your standard, Buhari had MOVED IT UP.

bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
So which approach is Buhari take? He said we'll not SELL (PRIVATIZATION) this family car, we'll not allow few privileged family members to keep messing it up, while we still spend family money on it. We'll use it to do UBER (COMMERCIALIZATION) while still having it as 100%🕺🕺
So, Buhari (APC) did not PRIVATIZE NNPC Ltd o, they COMMERCIALIZED it.

PRIVATIZATION: The transfer of a business, industry, or service from public to private ownership and control.

COMMERCIALIZATION: the process of managing or running something principally for financial gain.
Meaning: This NNPC Ltd still belongs to 200million Family 100%. But any member of the family will not be able to take it to naming ceremony, nightclub or religious service for free like before again...

We go use am do UBER (commercialization), UBER driver go give us our money!
UBER drivers will be using the car for COMMERCIAL purpose, they'll not wait for our family meeting before they use the car, fix or change any part of the car again...
But that car you see with UBER driver still belongs to our family 100% this time around. Na COMMERCIALIZATION!🚶‍♂️

Buhari got to Ogun pre 2019 election...A whole incumbent Governor was doing anti-party...He brought another candidate of another party he endorsed to his APC mega rally that already had a candidate he didn't endorse🤣

Wetin u want make Buhari do?
Internal crisis is crazy🤣🤣🤣
Everyone wanted Baba Bubari's endorsement of their own candidate in the same party.
Even we wey dey support Tinubu for open contest dey vex say why Buhari no go support Tinubu openly like Tinubu do am in 2014?🤣

Baba kuku comot hand...
As you're resolving it, another wahala🤣🤣
I love to make fun a lot behind the scene because many people are too emotional for me🤣🤣🤣

"Why would Buhari allow Amosun to do that in APC rally?

I said "Sebi na Amosun be AOC Governor wey dey host APC Presidential candidate for Ogun, Wetin you want make he do"?🤣🤣🤣

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..
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!
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?🤣

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.

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
