How We Defeated Jonathan – Tinubu

ALL Progressives Congress, APC, leader Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, yesterday, attributed the defeat of President Goodluck Jonathan in the last presidential election to a commonsense revolution anchored on a rebellion against the excesses of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP. He spoke at a book launch in Lagos where Nobel laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka extolled him, and Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State as the drivers of the uprising, which he said, was fast-tracked by President Jonathan’s mishandling of the Nigerian Governors Forum, NGF crisis. The public presentation of the book “Dynamics of Change: The Amaechi Years”, was witnessed by a cross section of the political class and civil society including governors, former governors, senators among others. Justice Adolphus Karibi-Whyte, who was chairman of the occasion, said the book only offered a glimpse into the vision that stimulated the infrastructure and developments during the Amaechi years in Rivers State.

Tinubu Commends Aminu Tambuwal, Says Courageous Withdrawal From Presidential Race Is True Patriotism

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and former Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has commended the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mallam Aminu Tambuwal, for withdrawing from the party’s presidential race.

He said the Speaker's decision was commendable and that he had made history by his decision, describing the action as cast in the mold of those defining sagacious political decisions that have set the tone for the positive and progressive thinking so badly needed to lift Nigeria up.

“This sacrifice you have made will not be in vain,” Tinubu said, showering praise on the Tambuwal. He told the Speaker that his sacrifice for the cohesion of the party and a greater Nigeria will go down in history as one of the greatest pragmatic and progressive political sacrifices ever made in the politics of the country.

Amaechi Meets Tinubu and Buhari To Strategise For 2015

The authentic chairman of Nigeria's Governors Forum, Governor Rotimi Amaechi is the main man to win over as the political maneuverings leading to the 2015 general elections begin to take the centre stage.

After President Goodluck Jonathan and his brother, Governor Seriake Dickson pleaded with Amaechi not to abandon his fellow South-South man on Friday, juicygist.Com gathered that a high powered delegation of APC leadership led by Muhammadu Buhari and Asiwaju Bola Tinubu are meeting with Amaechi in his base in Port Harcourt to give him a better deal, not just sentiments of "my brother".

The top political meeting will hold on Monday, following a successful meeting with other G-7 governors.
Confirming the political meeting with Amaechi, APC spokesman Lai Mohammed, said "It is true, Insha Allah, we are going to Port Harcourt on Monday."
A source told us that APC leaders are storming Rivers to have a chat with a governor who has been humiliated by the Presidency and convince him to collapse his political structure into APC.

It is believed that once Amaechi accepts to join APC, the Northern G-7 governors will follow as they want to make sure that APC has at least two states in the South-South to challenge Jonathan in his stronghold.
