I came across this post that I made in January 2025 (Buhari was still alive then) and I realised how consistent President Bola Tinubu has been and why he keeps outsmarting his opponents.
President Bola Tinubu believes in negotiation and doesn't fight internal oppositions openly. Unlike Atiku and Obi who would shy away from showing leadership and flexibility in the face of internal conflicts within their political parties, Tinubu has a way of making warring parties to reach a middle ground. This is why many are shocked at his ability to bring diverse political interests under one umbrella.
If a conspiracy is against him, he also knows how to calmly outfox his opponent without bringing down the whole house. Most importantly, he is one of the very few politicians alive with a semblance of a distinct political and economic ideology.
Read the original post below: 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇
"I watched this Tinubu interview, which he granted in 2015 amidst rumours of rift between him and President Buhari, I took away a lot of lessons from it. Some of them include:
1. Tinubu understood that party politics involves internal conflicts and clash of interests. He was ready to face every eventualities that may arise in the new party APC that just ended the PDP 16 years hegemony.
2. He was always ready to discuss, negotiate, compromise where necessary just to keep the party together. He knew that the APC, being a party made up of different blocs needs pampering to firmly stand on its feet.
3. He knew and respected the fact that President Buhari is the one in charge and was not willing to have any public spat with him regardless of any misunderstanding. Publicly he always backed Buhari and his vision of governance. Any public advice to the Buhari administration then was basically on points of policy.
4. Tinubu just like Bisi Akande has a distinct ideology guiding him which is seen in his brand of progressive political ideology. Buhari is more of a moderate socialist. The two being in the same party meant they were likely going to be in different ideological wings when it comes to certain issues. However, Tinubu never attempted to impose his own ideology on Buhari.
5. There is a strong mutual respect and admiration between Tinubu and Buhari. They understand each other and both don't plot to undermine each other. Buhari knew that Tinubu was interested in the presidency and having gotten his chance as civilian president through the help of Tinubu, Buhari was not so eager to stop Tinubu from being the president.
6. As president, Tinubu remains close to Buhari and Buhari is reciprocating the goodwill Tinubu extended to him while he was in power. Many northern presidential hopefuls likely saw that Buhari will not join them to oppose Tinubu and they have now decided to launch their coalition. I will talk about the coalition in another post.
7. No current active politician can exhibit Tinubu's Strategic patience and temperament. This is why he's in a league of his own and has survived countless political plots that would have crippled and retired lesser men.
8. From the dynamics at play currently and which will keep evolving till 2027, it is only God and President Tinubu himself that can stop a Tinubu victory in 2027. His opponents have started making mistakes and do not have any waterproof strategy to unseat him in 2027 (not 2025)."

Sometimes you may tick all the necessary boxes, but still need luck on your side for things to finally work.
Towards the end of 2009, Platform Petroleum and Shebah Petroleum had their sights on three OMLs owned by Shell, which were up for sale. The two indigenous oil companies, managed by Austin Avuru and A.B.C. Orjiako, were introduced to each other by a third party, Alhaji Nasir Ado Bayero (now the 15th Emir of Kano).
Shebah and Platform formed a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) for the transaction with Shell, which is what we now know as Seplat.

Not every breast lump happens to be cancerous. The moment you notice something unusual in your breast, it's common for worry to set in. Yes, that is normal.

PUBLIC ALERT ‼️
Never accept any parcel or luggage from anyone or on behalf of anyone no matter how close you’re! The keg of palm oil in this video was given to a lady going to Saudi Arabia to help deliver to someone else there. When @ndlea_nigeria officers intercepted her at the airport, it turned out the keg of oil was used to conceal illicit drug. She’ll have been counting her days on earth by now if this was discovered in Saudi. Please share and spread the message, warn your friends and family members about this. Choose to offend the person than go to jail. BE WISE!

Nigerian inter state flights are too expensive and it doesn’t make sense.
These flights can be less expensive but it would appear there are not enough carriers.
Nigerians need to fly more, these airlines need to acquire more planes and spread the unit cost on more people.

instagram has brainwashed an entire generation into thinking expensive international trips are a life goal, even when they don’t even own a house.
the west convinced you to fly thousands of miles, blow your savings, take 200 pictures and call it “finding yourself.”
every country has mountains, beaches and pretty streets.
western tourism propaganda is working exactly as intended.

Two of the worst economic decisions of my lifetime as a Nigerian were;
- Umaru Musa Yar’Adua’s reversal of refinery privatisation.
- Goodluck Jonathan’s partial retreat from petrol subsidy removal in 2012.
The consequences were far-reaching. Nigeria missed opportunities to attract private investment into its refineries, create industrial jobs and reduce dependence on imported fuel. Instead, we continued pouring public money into refinery rehabilitation while spending billions of dollars subsidising petrol.
The scale of the cost is staggering. Available estimates suggest that Nigeria’s prolonged fuel subsidy regime and repeated spending on dysfunctional state-owned refineries imposed a combined fiscal burden approaching $100 billion over the relevant period. This is an indicative estimate, not a verified bill attributable solely to these two decisions, and it excludes the harder-to-quantify costs of lost investment, industrial development and jobs.
Think of what some of that money could have done for electricity, roads, railways, hospitals, schools and job creation. Of course, reforms must be well managed, with protection for the poorest. But reversing difficult policies without a credible alternative only prolonged the problem.
Nigeria has paid dearly for prioritising short-term political pressures over long-term economic transformation.

Some of the questions people have asked me in the comments are:
"AYO, why is it that these Jinn issues we see usually involve only Muslims? If a person is not a Muslim, does this mythology still apply to them, or do Jinns only affect Muslims because you people talk about it?" And another person asked: "What happens to the Qareen when the person dies?"
Let me educate you all today. This is a very shallow way to view the world. You think because a culture does not use the Arabic word "Jinn", the entity ceases to exist. For some, it is their hatred for Islam that has beclouded their common sense.
Jinns do not only afflict Muslims. They afflict every human being walking this earth. The difference is vocabulary.
When a Christian is afflicted, they call it demonic possession and run to the church for deliverance. Long before Islam came to finalize the truth, the ancient Greeks believed every human was assigned an invisible companion spirit at birth.
You don’t need to take my words for it. In the Myth of Er, Plato documented that every soul is assigned a "daimon" before birth to guide it through life.
In fact, in Plato's Apology of Socrates, Plato recorded that Socrates famously spoke of his "daimonion", an unseen personal spirit that had been whispering to him since his childhood. The ancient Romans also had the same belief and called this assigned spirit a "Genius".
Even modern psychology tries to explain away the constant evil whispers in your head by calling it the "shadow self" or intrusive thoughts. Take a look at sleep paralysis. Western folklore calls it the "Old Hag" or an incubus attack. Science calls it a hypnagogic hallucination.
When you look at all of these, they are all experiencing the same unseen reality. They just lack the divine manual to diagnose it properly. They fight what they cannot explain.
Therefore, Islam did not invent Jinns. Islam gave you the true name for what the rest of the world is suffering from in complete ignorance.
Let me walk you through a basic theological fact. Every single human being is assigned a Qareen from birth. This is a Jinn companion whose primary job is to whisper evil and mislead you. It is not a Muslim problem. It is a human reality.
The enmity starts from day one. The Prophet informed us that every newborn is poked by Shaitan at birth, causing the baby to cry out loudly. The only exceptions in history were Prophet Isa (Jesus Christ) and his mother Maryam (peace be upon them).
Now, before some of you try to play smart and ask about babies who are born and do not cry, let us apply some nuance.
The poke of Shaitan is a metaphysical event. A newborn that fails to cry at birth is a physical and medical complication. The baby might be struggling for oxygen or dealing with fluid in the lungs.
A biological inability to vocalize a scream does not mean the metaphysical touch did not happen. You cannot use a physical medical emergency to cancel an unseen reality.
This brings us to the second question. What happens when the human dies?
The human dies, but the Qareen does not die with them. Jinns have lifespans that stretch for centuries.
This fact solves another global confusion. When a non-Muslim goes to a psychic or a medium who claims to channel their dead grandfather, or when a family claims a ghost visited them and knew intimate family secrets, they think the dead have returned.
In Islamic theology, the human soul is locked in the Barzakh. It cannot return to this realm.
What those psychics are communicating with is the deceased person's Qareen. That Jinn lived with the person from birth to death. It knows their voice, their hidden memories, and their deepest secrets.
The world calls it necromancy, ghosts, or ancestral spirits. Islam exposes it as a surviving Jinn playing a trick on the living.
The unseen world is real whether you believe in it or not. The earlier you recognize what you are fighting, the better for your soul.
Allah knows best.
I have received several tags on this story, so let me talk about it.
The family is wondering which angel visited the sister in boarding school. Jsyk, it was not an angel. Angels do not run errands taking the form of dead relatives to deliver provisions. And it was not the father either.
Like I explained in a similar case recently, once a person dies, their soul enters the Barzakh. This barrier is permanent. The dead do not come back to check on their children. They do not buy provisions. They do not roam around boarding schools.
What visited your sister was a Jinn.
Every person has a Qareen. This is the Jinn companion attached to you from birth. This Jinn knows everything about the father. It knows his face, his voice, his mannerisms, and it knew he planned to visit his daughter that Saturday.
When the father passed away on Monday, his Qareen or a shape-shifting Jinn took his physical form. It got those provisions and went straight to the school to play a sick psychological game with the young girl.
Some of you might wonder how a Jinn could buy or carry physical provisions. Jinns are fully capable of interacting with the physical world. They can move objects, steal items, and transport matter. Acquiring basic boarding school provisions is not a difficult task for them.
They do this to mess with human minds. They want you to believe the dead are still wandering the earth. When you start believing your dead relatives can still bring you food or protect you, you are stepping right into shirk. You begin attributing power to the dead instead of asking the Almighty.
It is a tragedy that the family lost a father. But do not let grief cloud your basic theology. There are no ghosts. The dead are gone. The entities performing these stunts are Jinns.
Allah knows best

If you don't have a job that pays you at least ₦350,000 to ₦400,000 per month in Nigeria, your quality of life will be awful. The other day, my barber told me that his daily transport fare to work was ₦700 before Tinubu came into power. But after the president introduced his harsh economic reforms, it climbed to ₦3,000. At the same time, his landlord increased his annual rent from ₦300,000 to ₦1.2 million. Does this mean that the president has a cold heart toward the suffering of people like my barber? Why can't he listen to the cries of the masses? People are indeed suffering.

6. The ultimate equation
Here is where I stand.
If Atiku can win the 12 core Northern states with similarly dominant margins, securing at least 70% of the votes across the region, just as Obi could potentially achieve in the South-East and Tinubu in the South-West, I have little doubt that Atiku would emerge as President-elect in 2027.
The argument that Tinubu will win simply because he finishes second wherever Obi or Atiku wins overlooks the most important variable: the size of the margins matters just as much as the number of states won.
Winning a state with 70% of the vote is not the same as winning it with 35%. The geographical spread of votes, the margins in each region and the ability to cross the constitutional 25% threshold in at least two-thirds of the states and the FCT will all matter.
Ultimately, I believe the North-West and North-East could be decisive. If Atiku can significantly widen his margins across the core North while Obi and Tinubu consolidate their respective strongholds, the entire electoral equation changes.
That is why I don't buy the simplistic argument that Tinubu is guaranteed victory merely because he could finish second in several states across the country. The numbers, the margins and the changing political dynamics must all be taken into account.

I do not know why Nigerians, including myself, should be concerned about and complaining of hardships and suffering in the land.There is no nation on earth that has embraced wrongs as a way of life as we do in Nigeria that will not suffer from hardship.We started and laid the foundations for these suffering and hardships when as Nigerians we accepted and tolerated wrongs in all institutions of governance as ways of governance.
Any nation that lays its foundations on faulty grounds must suffer from the fruits of bad behaviour planted and supplanted by its citizens. That is the calamities befalling us today. As Nigerians, we have individually and collectively created and watered the seeds of suffering and hardships we have today. Those lording over us today in the various institutions of government are Nigerians from Nigeria.They grew up in Nigeria and learnt how to do things Nigeria ways. For instance all over the word, the legal profession is a profession of light and its members try very hard to ensure and maintain the sanctity and integrity of the profession by ensuring that the streams of justice is not polluted.
They ensure that those on the bench are not contaminated by filthy wealth and corruption.Those on the bench maintain far distance from the arena of politics and political conflicts. And when any member of the legal profession does anything that has the tendency of lowering the standards and integrity of the profession either at the bar or on the bench the leadership of the profession will wield the big hammer of discipline.
That way, the legal profession maintains the strictest standards of discipline and then shows lights in darkness for the rest of the society to follow. But in Nigeria, many things are condone and accepted as correct even when they are obviously very wrong. Political leaders in Nigeria do whatever they like with court orders and court proceedings, and nothing happens to those who have allowed themselves to be used by these politicians.
So today, we are suffering from the systems we encouraged and nurtured into maturity. During electoral contests, it is we Nigerians that accept the manner politicians imposed themselves on us. We accept to live with it. So Nigerian politicians now accepted and know that the best means of voting in Nigeria is by stuffing ballot papers and writing the results of the elections.
Nigerian voters are helpless, and they, too, have decided to join in collecting peanuts at the polls because they know their votes will not count. For me, Nigerians are the architects of the current hardships and sufferings.Those who cut corners and sabotaging the programmes and policies of governance are Nigerians. Those who closed their eyes to obvious wrongs in our electoral process and then give stamps of legitimacy to an otherwise illegitimate electoral process are Nigerians whose code of ethics forbids the stamping of such illegal and illegitimate processes.
We are all guilty of the hardships and sufferings we faced today.The only way these hardships and sufferings will stop is when we all, as Nigerians, decide to do what is right. Until as Nigerians, we stop promoting and embracing what is wrong and then punish those who have decided to do bad, suffering and hardships will continue. We have not seen anything yet. I think Nigerians deserve good governance rooted in the rule of law. In the rule of law regime, members of the legal profession play critical roles. The challenge of Nigeria lies in the determination of the members of the legal profession to do what is right and give direction to the manner politics is played and governance is run..There is national greed in most of those heading our institutions in every department of government in Nigeria.There is greed in the various professional callings in Nigeria . Greed and avarice are responsible for the collapse of national ethos and standards.This greed has eaten so deep in so many bodies and institutions of governance in Nigeria
