Of course nobody wishes Tinubu dead. He can still be there till the next millennium if God permits him. But that Nigeria will remain in the stranglehold of Tinubu beyond next year? Whoever wishes that must be a terrible human being that decency, dignity, honestly and sincerity meant nothing to.

And such people shall witness what they don’t like to see. The total emancipation of Nigeria and national redirection along the pathway of progress and development led and encouraged by ADC Party.

It is very clear that Nigerians cannot condone Tinubu beyond his stolen mandate of four years that ends in May 2027. Suffice to say that Tinubu didn’t try to pretend. He said power is not served “a la carte”. It must be “snatched and runaway with.”

His political dragnet was efficient for him to snatch power but his ineffectual conduct and moral decorum saw that he wasn’t able to run away.

His checkout from power is imminent. His moral deficiencies are most obvious. Those who said Nigeria never had it this bad nailed it on point. Tinubu is simply incapable of leading cabinet of cerebral people. His visions are decadent. His aptitude is in the negative. His intelligence indulges in immorality.

To put it simply – Tinubu is terribly incapable of good. His handiwork are seen all over national politics. His focus are to desecrate the respect the national constitution holds for the opposition and the entire household of democracy in this fatherland

Between his installed media animation team and payed “yesmen” all around him, his entire attention in this presidency are fully captured. He plays politics with all instrumentation of power. He will not allow his political adversaries have their say. His garage mentality with which he governed Lagos, sacking his Deputy Governors on three ocassions still dogs his mentality.

His unruly nature speaks volumes. Those waiting for him to address issues of this nation shall wait in vain. He is more interested in boasting on how he ran the oppositions to ground.

If only he is fully aware of the implications of his actions. He is trying to stop the free flow of a river in raining season with his forefinger. His effort to stop oppositional politics in Nigeria is shallow and meaningless. It only depicts him for whom he is in reality. His assumed credentials as a democrat are like vain expectation of efficacious or healthy usage of toilet paper fallen into the sewage. It has no meaning.

Tinubu’s politics are like garbage stuffs. He can’t even convince anyone outside his camp. Each time the likes of Bayo Onanuga have access to microphone, they becomes a political comedian. Bogus, Brute and Indecent!

They can hardly put words together to portray decent meaning. He just want to boast that powers are on their side for now.

But Nigerians have seen the likes of Tinubu before. The collective will of the people shall be the greatest obstruction to his power-prolongation ambition.

I’m sure images of national convention of ADC that took place three days ago must be at his disposals by now. Coming against popular willpower of the people is the greatest impediment to rulership in power.

Whatever it will take these people to forestall Tinubu from power, these ones shall do. The total motivation already in place months before elections is incredible.

These ones I see on daily basis can’t be cheated with truncated election, nor violent distortion of electoral processes.

By general volition of populace this elections will be peaceful, orderly and be utterly free of rigging. Every locality shall be on guard to resist foreign interference. They shall conduct themselves with dignity, proper etiquette and sincerity. And the result shall be released effectively and efficiently.

Who ever wishes to use the courts to rearrange the freewill of the people shall meet the crowds at his gate. Pronto!

Nigeria shall indeed be saved.
