My father used to tell me “anyone who doesn’t give when he has little, won’t give even if he has a lot. His reasons for denying will increase when he has more” it’s the heart that gives not the hand. Reach out and feed someone who needs it.
The deliberateness of his method. The sincerity of his consultations. The style of his engagements. He listens, he leans in. He asks questions. He probes and then he makes a move. Ladies and Gentlemen, the President of the Federal Republic.
@officialABAT
Asiwaju started running for President in 2007 without being on the ballot. He stepped out of office into power. He built and nourished institutions and individuals. He created and promoted organizations and occupations. He invested heavily in democracy and democratic platforms.
But Akin what is the truth there? That she has “customers”? What kind of customers? Can’t you just disagree with her on the issues and leave it at that? Why would you say such things about a married woman and a mother? Please learn to use tact in ur responses.
So Mrs Omotola claimed
@MBuhari
and VP
@ProfOsinbajo
caused "The lack of money in circulation "
But i don't deserve this block button now 😂😂
Well Truth is Always bitter now 😂
I have said it before and I will say it again, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu stepped OUT of Office into POWER. Others only step into power IF they are in office. LEADERSHIP IS A QUALITY NOT A POSITION!!
I regret posting any statement in d last 48 hrs other than that of d BH attack on our soldiers in Mete. Even tho I wasn’t aware of it early enuff, no xcuse is or shld b tenable. I take full responsibility 4 seeming insensitive at sch trying moment. May d souls of our heroes RIP.
Alhamdulillah ‘Ala Kulli Haal
Hard fought campaign.
Hard won victory.
Hopefully a peaceful conclusion.
Hopefully a smooth transition.
No more arrogance in politics and governance.
Electorate have come of age.
No one should be taken for granted.
Reform our Party! APC
Jst so u knw,BAT was in Kano for two nights. Met with influential sectors of d society all thru, attended the biggest rally of this campaign season today and headed to Edo immediately for tmrw’s Rally. U see elections are like exams, it favours those who work hard. NO EMOTIONS!
Say a prayer for a soldier who goes after the enemy face on, a police officer who stops at nothing to arrest d problem, an SSS officer who gathers intel to forestall an attack, a doctor who answers a call at midnight to save a patient and a citizen who is grateful to all of them.
A Professor & a Pastor. A Man of God & a Man of Law. Dirt or mud can be thrown but like a silk wall, it will hardly stick. D privileges of incumbency never carries him away and its responsibilities never overwhelms him. For this reason the President chose him and we support him!
We may hv lost most of d polling units to NNPP, but because it is not in the National equation, the real election is between APC and PDP. As it stands, I think we will give PDP a gap of almost 400-700k in Kano. That’s where the firewall and bull work is. And thts why we’ll win.
We lost two States before going to Polls, Zamfara and Rivers. We lost Imo and Adamawa bc of ego. We lost Sokoto and Bauchi due to false confidence. We lost Oyo due to whatever it was we lost Oyo for. We have work to do in the build-up to the next round. Serious work!
Borno! Borno! Borno! How many times did I call you? How dare you challenge us with that crowd yesterday? With that love? With enthusiasm? Suffice it to say, BORNO DELIVERED! Gidis, Lasgidi. Eko o ni baje! EKO LOKAN! You are up next!
Politics is for politicians. If u are a technocrat please go to the private sector or be a consultant. Come with ur PowerPoint and white people and do presentation to us. But my guy, if you are holding any position given to you by anyone who is elected then you ARE ONE OF US
It’s been a heck of a campaign, n d outcome well worth it. I hv 2 admit PDP really surprised me though. They tried. My respects. Thank you to everyone who voted for us or against us. Thank you for participating. 20 years of civil rule. Democracy won after all.
When I was running 4 Reps in 2011, I told my Dad I wanted 2 change things..blah blah. He touched me, smiled and calmly said “just be consistent Ismaeel. In this field consistence is more important than competence. D secret is to choose d right place frm day one” HBD Baba.
I agree we are different n don’t hv to agree on everything or even most things really. But let us agree on how to disagree. Let’s agree on a standard we cnt go below; dt of decorum n decency, dt of tolerance n thoughtfulness. Let us not inherit the burden of hate n suspicion.
Guys, the only opinion polls that matter is that of the 25th of February. We have the numbers, we have the people, we have the product and we have the energy. Let’s go deliver!
I want to honestly wish the former President
@GEJonathan
a Happy Birthday. I may disagree with a lot of your style or substance of leadership but I truly believe you are a decent man. You appointed Jega and conceded to us without hassle. That’s a true work of statesmanship.
Someone said something funny and I will have to agree
“If President is cloned as some allege, then 2019 will be his first term and he is therefore eligible to run again in 2023” I couldn’t stop laughing.
Happy Birthday to my own Chairman. I have been away from you thru the campaign and I had wanted to celebrate our victory with your birthday today but INEC failed us. Anyways, we will celebrate today and next week as well God willing.
I was in Daura for a condolence visit to the family of a late friend Malam Sade Daura. I also took the opportunity to visit H.E. President Muhammadu Buhari in his house. The President looks refreshed and well rested.
It's usually a long walk from being oppressed to becoming an oppressor. ASUU seems to be making it shorter. It is becoming obvious that this is no longer a negotiation but a ransom demand, with our students and education system the hostage.
I don’t care what anyone has to say, our Boss the President has a sincere mien, a materialistic indifference and a genuine concern for those he presides over. He asks the basic things of work and life and wants to know not only how far, but how well we r doing our jobs.
Someone needs to quantify and tell us how much Govt has saved in these last few months from lack of travels and event plannings by Govt officials. We need to know.
Governor is the most powerful position politically in Nigeria. They determine Councillors at the wards, LG Chairmen, State Assembly Members in his party, Reps and Senate from his state and together, in a forum, the Governors determine a presidential candidate.
We have stepped down Kwara for tmrw. We will focus on Kogi. Kwara deserves a day on its own. Because Kwara is not only about winning an election, it’s like an independence struggle. After victory, it will be declared INDEPENDENCE DAY. That needs special preparation and focus.
I have said there will be PRIMARIES and some here that think they know this party more than me or this president more than me. We all know what we know...but this party o, i know it!
I have not been around for too long. I haven’t been president or a governor but from what I have seen, heard and learnt so far being around power, being President is entirely about Character! Integrity is an intangible quality that can be touched.
Unless you are voting in Abuja, I hope everyone is back home now trying to do the needful to deliver. Time for stories is over o. Even the candidate has gone back home. Just deliver or make an effort. No stories.
President Buhari approves the establishment of the Nigeria Youth Investment Fund , NYIF , to the tune of 75 billion at FEC today, following a memo presented by the Minister of Youth and Sports Mr. Sunday Dare. The fund is to run for 3 years in the first instance.

paid us a condolence visit at home. Thank you Ma. Allah ya bada lada.
Thank you my Younger brother Chairman House Committee on Banking Regulations
@B_ELRUFAI
for turning up and making the conversation lively and educative.
Let’s not mince words WE ARE THOROUGHLY AND UTTERLY DISAPPOINTED IN INEC. How can you give us a date a year ago and come up with logistical issue as an excuse. You have been lying to us all along that you are ready?
Hello everyone. What a run it has been!
Our Presidential Campaign has run its full course. From North to South, East to West, we have taken the

message to all the 36 states and the FCT.
Congratulations HE
@atiku
I just realized this is your first time being the Presidential candidate of the PDP ever. We will meet on the field sir. We will maintain decorum in our speech and style in dis campaign but our margin maybe brutal sir.
This is to congratulate you our leader, our mentor and now, our candidate
@officialABAT
on your nomination as our flag bearer. Ur track record on dis journey has been tht of grit n gravitas, consistency n confidence, survival n sacrifice, selflessness and service,
Now, we take the mantle and continue to drive a dream that started in Lagos. From Koko in Kebbi to Kura in Kano, from Askira in Borno to Ado Ekiti in Ekiti. The progressive movement will go on and so is the development of this great country of ours. So help us God.

@elrufai
this is indeed a tough time to lead but you have demonstrated an unwavering commitment to your state and your people, an uncommon capacity to deal with this issue. May Allah see you thru and bring us peace in Kaduna.
Meeting with my Ward Leaders at home. Ward Party Chairman, Secretary, Organizing, Woman and Youth Leaders, Chairman Elders Forum and other Exco. My ward has 3 district heads and 149 Polling Units. It has d highest number of polling units in Kano. And the message is Ahmadu Bola
My people, tmrw is my birthday. Give me a gift of these individuals as Governors إن شاء الله. Also Niger, Yobe, Benue, Jigawa, LAGOS and so on. Let’s deliver!
Congrats to all those who participated in this election cycle. It was tension soaked for us but the maturity of our democracy, elections and electorate is refreshing. We won. But I don’t think the others lost. I think a new kind of respect will be meted out to everyone from now.
Glad to see a former teacher who is proud of his former student and a grown young boy (me) who is emotional seeing him in Madobi LG when I visited for Delegate Consultation on Saturday the 21st of May.
Tmrw is the
@NGRPresident
birthday. Other than being a good president, he is a good and a decent man worth celebrating.
As a politician you are a man OF the people. As a president, you are a man FOR the people!Happy 76th Mr. President!!!
Have ur PVC. speak to people. Sponsor radio jingles. host political meetings. contribute 2 campaign, print souvenirs, be an agent on Election Day, pay local agents etc. Bottom line: if U are a political appointee U must deliver. U can’t be doing TECHNOCRAT on other people’s sweat
Hahahaha. Stop looking for phony shortcuts, the only way this will be decided is by the ballot not some baseless accusation. We are coasting to victory guys. This train can’t stop nor can it be stopped by all these shenanigans. Get ready for a duel kurum.
Elections can generally be divisive and outcomes can be polarizing. But our task now is to unite the country and pursue its progress. Democracy won today. And we thank everyone who played a part; parties and personalities, institutions and individuals. Thank you!
To a Man of God and a Man of Law. To one of the most incisive, kind hearted, Objective, Faithful, Patriotic Nigerians I have ever known or heard of. To a dependable ally to our president. Happy Birthday HEVP
@ProfOsinbajo
No choice would have been easier or all acceptable. No candidate would have been applauded by all. In choosing
@KashimSM
BAT took a gamble against a possible avalanche of negative pushback. But it was a decision that was borne out of progressive patriotism.
It’s Monday. It’s Saturday. It’s 5 days. What began last year, will culminate this weekend. Elections are a process not an event. It had began. It will be concluded on the first part at 176k+ PU’s. In 8,800+ Wards. In 770+ LGA’s. In 30+ States and FCT.
And just like that, I am 44. Alhamdulillah for the gift of life and the quality of it, the health of the body, heart and mind, the wealth of family and friends, and everything in between. The privileges we take for granted and the responsibilities we strive to fulfil.
Happy Birthday Mr. President. These are no doubt challenging times in our country, but your incurable optimism and steady strides will hopefully see us through and guarantee a more durable and prosperous nation- Barr. Ismaeel Ahmed OON.
Thank you everyone! We had a splendid show last night. Many cynics didn’t think we could pull it off. But we did.
And to everyone who came out to run it is in the belief that our party is home. We gave it a good run. Let’s move on to the next fight. Thank you!!!
I have said it before and I will say it again, ASUU are demanding for ransom. And in the process are willing to strangle as many hostages as they can. Simply Unfair!
So we bolted out of the gates dis year Frm d 4th, and it’s just One Week since but we’ve been to Kano, Edo, a Town Hall in Abuja, Ondo, Lagos, Adamawa for Binani and for us, Yobe yesterday and Enugu today. Now, don’t say you didn’t see us studying o, cos we will get an A!
Saw a statement from DSS that it had nothing to do with the purported attempted arrest of Sowore inside the precinct of a courtroom seen in a video that has gone viral.
I think we have been unfair to them and must be more circumspect in reaction of whatever kind.
ASUU should obey court order first, then negotiations can continue. A voluntary union cannot override the powers of 2 constitutional arms of the country. That’s anarchy. That is contemptuous. If the order had been against THE PEOPLE, all hell would have broken loose.
All I know is that I support the APC Flag bearer for the 2023 Presidential elections to come from the SOUTHERN PART OF NIGERIA. LET THAT BE CLEAR AND UNAMBIGUOUS!
Just so we are clear, I believe the amounts for nomination forms of my party
@OfficialAPCNg
as publicized is prohibitively expensive and obnoxious. We will officially write for it to be reviewed. Pecuniary bottlenecks must not be deliberately planted to limit participation.
Guys we have work to do. Next weekend is the Gubernatorial elections. We expect everyone to go back home again and recommit themselves and ensure a win for us. Lagos, Kano, Kaduna, Katsina, Bauchi, Adamawa, Delta, Rivers, Gombe, Yobe, Taraba, Kebbi…we got to close dis
