Yeah, I took us here this beautiful Thursday morning. It's a girl Let's go to have you join us. Thanks for having me and what a lovely way you have there. Thank you That's all right. We start off with a nation newspaper. I mean the headlines this morning are quite predictable To noble let's work together to stop the PDP from taking power And some people have queried some of these statements that have been put out Is that exactly the situation of things? So we're looking at, you know, solving the problems than I'd respect with Underneath how he won a PC tickets governor's la one article conquer so fire me bar or the salute standard bearer That's what you find this morning underneath the Rider Another says 48 jostle for the Allah thing shown and 40 killed 61 injured in our terror attack UBA redims 500 million dollars Euroborn notes and war That's again at war.

It was once an up-gap official chairman of the party in in that state Well, we'll move away from the punch. Let's take a quick look at the leadership newspaper this morning 2023 presidency after clenching a PC ticket to the ball faces running mate huddle Dogara Mustafa Gandu J. Irvai tipped for vice president and some persons are ready saying would there be Consideration of the Muslim Muslim tickets at this point in time Nigerian back on track with my imagines The flag bearers quoted to say president's Muhammad a Buhari la one governor's budget be a Miller.

Yeah, I can hear you learn from task Before we get into the thick of things it it seems you and others conspired To revenge on us as a team would be to worry by keeping us awake last night at the ADC Primaries it it was the unexpected highly unexpected outcome Kingsley Mualu and Chippuka Mouye the two leaders as far as the public were concerned did not get the ticket. What happened? um There's a difference between party primaries and general election the dynamics work a little different in party primaries what you do if you are a political strategist is You target The delegates you get to them you talk to them You sell yourselves to them you show them why You would be in a better position to take on the opposition You tell them where your strategic advantages are and at the end of the day when the delegates meet They take a decision on war will actually help them now Chippuka Mouye and then My my brain professor Mualu. They are amazing as a matter of fact We had I mean if you listen to the pitch like you did from all of them We had at the very least five people at the very least who could take on Nigeria and these people very very effectively ADC are today proud like we are very proud but coming back to the question You know Chippuka Mouye and Professor Kingsley more and let me limit myself to this too They they they did well with respect to public appeal but in terms of giving the Members of the party that comfort That they have the capacity to take on the system and They were going to be willing to fight. They did not do that so we have two amazing candidates who Did not perform as much as people expected The the margin of victory Was pretty wide extremely wide if you look at it. My brother Mouye had about Over 300 Mogalu had over 500 while Dumevi Kachiku had close to a thousand Now the second thing that happened was that Something that they all ought to be very proud of themselves is that We refuse to monetize the process So no money was shared. I can say that with every sense of responsibility But I think that Dumevi Kachiku Is the only person to the best of my knowledge that PDP in particular Is scared stiff off The reason is that from inception of PDP He has always been a member of their strategy group When he left the PDP the PDP was worried. So he is he's a political strategist And when he outlined how he was going to win the election how he was going to beat PDP You know, you know, I think the members of the party were very convinced very very convinced Number one. He has very in-depth knowledge of the political system in Nigeria He has an amazing understanding of PDP and you know APC is actually PDP too, okay You understand what I mean. So if you understand Inception it means you have a good understanding of both PDP and APC because like I said earlier PDP is the APC is PDP too. They are just a certain person of people. Who is the chairman of APC too? I want to read online national working committee members if you trade their background They trace it back to PDP and these are the people that he has been no strategizing for all the years So what happened wasn't People who didn't do well. It was more of somebody who understood the system better and worked the system better and When you understand such a person you can see that we are in for a good time So to speak, you know What is going to bring to the table in the campaign coming? So he we never saw, you know, the type of Twitter Analysis and trying to sell oneself, you know We never saw the posts the kind of post that we saw from of ideas and trying to sell not just oneself but the party ADC by King especially Professor Mogalu and also, you know the media razzmatas of Chikooka Mouye to sell himself and the ADC from Maybe Kachiku never saw any of that, but he ended up winning Winning the the race. I think this should be a political learning curve For candidates who have good ideas and think like you saying that the ideas alone can win them the ticket Before messy comes in let's use that and link that to a headline on the front page of the Guardian That says 2023 Anga in Igbo land or Igbo land over APC PDP snub And I think maybe the Anga Can be this this headline can also be linked to the 40s of Peter B and the Labour Party As someone who is a member of his foundation party Abga in Alambra state who was an aid on political And politics and strategy to William Biano the man Peter B handed over to and he said to have been Achieve a protocol to Peter B in his first term as governor of Alambra state has been elected as his own nemesis The presidential candidate of a rival faction of Labour Party and the cases in court said to be heard On April 30th as the agenda date. I want to link this this to what we see on the front page of the Guardian There's Anga in Igbo land you see If if you if you you know the bible talks about the sons of Isaka That have that competence and capacity to discern the signs of the times Okay, if you look at what is going on and you really sit back And watch the analysis and do a projection One thing that comes very clear is that 2023 Is going to be like a dc convention You don't see it coming and it hits you hard if you look at the so-called top contenders pvp apc If you take the people involved jagaban and article You can very easily put them in one box The only person that was trying to breathe Would have been a man like Peter will be and see what is coming on Except the Igbo's let me use that word generally the south east as rally round And bring him back to the ballot without You know early enough you may realize that A man that was highly celebrated in the absence of the new kids on the block might just get so distracted That that momentum he was trying to generate is lost on legal hustles And when people come up, I'm not sure whether You will be the one or he will not be the one because being the eventual candidate Is hinged on a lot of inec technicalities If at the end of the day your faction is not the recognized faction Or the legal, you know One arm of this A political setup is the judiciary And if pdp or apc actually see Peter be as a major threat They can work well with the judiciary To get some judgments that can just make you shake your head and wonder if all is well At the end of the day this legal Tussle, you know Hanging around the neck of mr. Peter would be could be a major distraction To that extent It is where the root is being cleared is like in a quite good state. And by the way Where is my congratulations? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you you you merged. Wow. Congratulations. Congratulations. Congratulations Um, your excellency Fantastic fantastic fantastic all right We need to I mean continue just before We call it a wrap this morning on the papers. I mean talking about off the press Very interesting. You have talked about distractions and all distractions on the nation newspaper Uh from a governor of lego status saying let's walk together to stop the pdp from taking power That's on the one side. I think that we have dwelt so much on politics But let's move on to the economy now on the leadership newspaper It talks about the increase in the first quarter debt profile has increased from 2 trillionaire to 41 Uh 0.6 trillionaire that's a lot. I mean That's so much. How did we even get here? What what's even going on with an eye journey economy in terms of, you know, our debt profile How do we you how do you even move as a person or as a country from two point? I mean two trillionaire to To 41 0.6 trillionaire. I mean you can see I'm struggling to even Uh understand that You see the time has come when you know when when when the mainstream media Get fixated on this a pcpdp a pcpdp They don't quite understand the issues that we are facing seem to Look at the nigeria. Look at the economy. Look at the dynamics. Look at the paradigms. Look at the implications You know of what is going on We live on a borrowing economy You know and not an economy that looks at what we have Look at what must be done We just we just we don't have a thinking governance what I call cerebral governance I need money. I don't have money Can I print more money? No, you can't print. Can I go? And you're like boom just rush to borrow They don't think in terms of waiting to lay Setting foundation based on setting fundamentals to have economy that works for all on the long run This is what the new kids on the block are going to bring to our governance And within the month of this is the month of may Mark my words within the month of july august There's going to be a completely different paradigm Of conversations Have looked at let me be an analyst this time. As always are not just a party man By crossing certain lines to other parties I listen to the young man from white pp And he's bringing something to the block I listen to the guy the other time you were correcting me that the factional asdp But I still come back to waleh the waleh And you need to listen to him I listen to maybe kachiku of a dc These are people that are bringing sound bites that the young people can relate to And maybe the time we have to talk about do maybe kachiku some more I'll tell you what political strategizing is all about Perspective planning is all about this is what these are going to bring to our politics and nobody's going to talk about article Jagaban How does that put food On the tables of the man in the village? How does that secure the future of the youth? People want to hear new sound bites All right, is it gone? Yeah, I took we have to let you go at this point in time I mean, I wish we had more time to talk about all of this Especially the headlines on our national dailies unfortunately will be prompted to you know to move on Thank you so much for being part of the breakfast and once again congratulations for imagining us the governorship candidate for your party Thank you and god Let's see. Let's say with uh with uh Nigerian politics the more you look the less you see Exactly indeed. Indeed. Um A lot of things that will happen going forward like um I guess I just said we'll shock people You know shock people sometimes what you think you know What you think you see may not be the case But you know how it is. I mean really if you look at it a lot of times that we expect to get the shockers Will we get shocked?
