Mr. Color. Wally. We start with the one in the front page of the nation newspaper with the Dancing chairs or musical chairs in the APC remember those games or that game we played as children back in the day Where you know, we have fewer chairs than those dancing. I don't know who's gonna lose out on this APC dancing chairs But what are your thoughts on the president's stance? Yes, so far thinking I think the APC is a victim of How would I say creation if you are now a member They call themselves and they came together as a legacy party It was a different political party That's why all it let couples together For the mere purpose of category political power Another got to power and came in power for the past seven years now They really have not been able to overcome their differences bring together a Party that is good to the question That is good to have the wishes and aspirations of not just the members of the party But also the Nigerian people. It is a battle of voices in there and a migrant of Strange best fellows And when you have that kind of an issue You have to have peace within the house The tragedy of the old thing is that this is affecting governance You and I don't know and once election remains a year one and you have to hear about Most politicians, political people, there's a war and because of war They abandon governance and then begin to face How they will be able to get elected or get back into power If you now add the problem that the APC has in his hand Of his inability to organize in conventions of his inability to put it out together Of his inability to create a solid effective and Quiescent party Then you and I will know that the country is in trouble When trouble not just because the party is not wasting, but it is also a party that has no interest For the rule of law and order And is equal if desperate To come to power Or matter What the wish is an expression of the Nigerian people might be So My fear is that And especially with what is happening in the other political party The PPC is trying to bring this away Most of the other smaller parties don't have the resources To really be able to mobilize the Nigerian people behind them So Nigeria is in serious trouble And now we're going to get out of this This my imagination And just like he said This is what we've been talking about We now have a president Who is resident abroad And people now have to start flying to To flown London To hold consultations where we do That is not just a dream On The resources of the nation What we talk to our party team implications On the kind of decision that we'll be taking at the end of the day If the president were to be on ground He won't be able to take charge effectively The way and manner the leaders should take charge Because People don't even have to say devices and chat when it's not around The truth of the matter is No president gives power Or absolute power Or effective power To their deputies They are mere satayans They're quality fundamental Who could not say very cultured decisions When they are in the need To say very, very cultured decisions I foresee What is happening in the APC Having a very negative impact And destabilizing the Nigerian judiciary Because it's not taking Because at the end of the day What this political party and all the other political parties that are so disorganized now We'll be doing Is to start going to cost But we clear one injunction of the other To get one of the same other than the other To use the cost To legalize all the unlawful and the nuclear activities That you have on back to power All the infractions that you are committing against the law You are in now who know that The concept of the federal republic of Nigeria The near electoral act Ask a schedule Of when and what should be done At any particular period of time Before the proper election is conducted Now all those timelines with the APC They will be able to meet it With the crisis in their hands The answer is maybe no Furthermore There is a party That want to go shopping For Decisions in cost For documents in cost For other things in cost To legitimize All these illegality that we are saying They are all members That it is wrong for a sitting governor To be the one To be the chairman of the party To be conducting the affairs of the party To be organizing the convention Of the party As the party listening to him And the man who advised them Is a senior advocate of Nigeria And also a member of the political party And also a minister Because they just brought that aside Believing that whatever decision Whatever they want to do To share it To give the stamp of illegality On it Because these are the dangers It is impunity that it has taken here It is incompetence that it has taken here It is a kind of lame dog presidency That we have in our hands And that's why we are having all these crisis Not just in the APC But which is as in the ripple effect On the Nigerian nation as a whole Look up Power supplying the country to theirs In the past few months There is no food supply And you have the President's issue Who should say the crucial decision To ensure that these things are normalised He is owner I mean he is abroad I tell you to do that And you are a nice person If poor Bia can do it I'm sure that Poor Bia has done it successfully From Switzerland And Kim Rune is still functioning In the middle of the whole decade now I agree with you The difference between Cameroon And Nigeria is that Cameroon is not as popular as Nigeria He doesn't have as many political parties As we have And then Cameroon is much more Poetry than Nigeria Because what we have in Cameroon Is an authoritarian regime That has been there for more than 30 or 40 years So when you compare these two scenarios These two times are different All right Let's take a look at the Punch news paper this morning It talks about Conversation with labor on fuel Subsidy removal That's still ongoing That's what the federal government is saying Now you also have on the other hand The government saying that they have quietly Removed electricity Subsidy, I mean subsidy In the electricity sector What are your thoughts on this one? Well, where is the subsidy In the first instance Look at the front page of the deficit I think they said DG is 34% And 29% per litre And the ratio of fuel For about 349% per litre So what subsidy are you talking about? Technically speaking I'm not too sure There is any subsidy On the Nigeria or whatever Fuel that we use in this country What we have been having is a A lot of people have been asked To pay for the electricity When somebody brought in a deficit of fuel Into the country not too long ago What has happened to that issue Are we earning energy again? Whereas you and I do know That before the fuel Left where it was for sale You will conduct a test to make sure that It meets All the quality requirements For fuel that is going to be used In many purposes And immediately it gets also to the country too You are supposed to conduct a test on it To make sure it meets all the quality parameters But you know and you know That is considered to be a case of all these tests And going to the Nigerian market Damaging and we need so many people To take equipment And motor cars and whatever So if We have been able to Manage our refinery Make them run effectively I will be talking about fuel softening So immediately What they are talking about When they talk about fuel softening Is their own efficiency It is their own ability to do what is right It is a corruption that the Nigerian people Are paying for And I am saying when they talk to you About fuel softening they are not You will care them to put on their tank kicker And make sure that the refineries are working And that they stop all the money And the use of fuel Fuel from abroad And for money laundry And other corruption purposes that is needed To perpetrate on the Nigerian nation We have had Too much of this And I keep saying that the Nigerian people Are in too tolerant of this In competent leadership And in lame dark administration Alright Mr Baske, sorry I said Mr Baske, today Let's look at what Is going on between The PDP And River State And Obasaki And Edo State Two men who previously worked together Very closely With all Yamiche on me Now exchanging words Obasaki Today being quoted by the nation Is saying that PDP Does not belong to Wike And of course a lot of talk From years on Wike are about Those who have cross-capitated From the PDP to other parties Your thoughts on all the drama Well That is a very very interesting one You and I Know who to rule That with some Wike pledge In getting Obasaki to become the governor Of those two But the truth of the matter is that If you will permit me to use the word Politicians are positive They already remember The good guests sold out to this den Yes it is What they are particular, what they are interested in What gains, what profits What power Will they be holding on to in the future So as far as Obasaki is concerned Wike is a history And He also be his own man And he doesn't want anybody to take Or ram him down And the neck of other people Other PDP members And what have you Obasaki doesn't want to go away for the two of them He also doesn't want to go away for the PDP And it is also going to be Adversarial to the Nigerian Society as a whole In the sense that if you don't have the PDP That is an effective possibility The fighting machine against the PDP That may come 2023 Nigeria will have no choice There will be a variety of Different parties to vote for And for me that will be a monumental tragedy The SPC haven't performed well And it is not effective for Sanity to attend Nigerian people They see that Problem As regards their future as a nation But with that as it may Let's also say that Wike has been Too gavelous When he comes to the PDP He doesn't have respect For his colleagues For his governors For other political parties And members He now begins to seem As a kind of de facto leader Of the PDP They are rather not too sure That she is not too big for him to Swear No matter how Statical as a Politician Without humility Without respect For his governors And other party members There will always be a difference Between the PDP as a political party But the bottom line is The lessons to learn from all this Is that they never realize It is on the commitment On the undertaking Of what you have done For a politician Once he has moved on Once he has new ambitions To remember what you have done For him to secure whatever He now has Let's also take a look At the punch this morning Still on the punch newspaper You have the federal government Saying we won't make Negotiations with ASU Sounds like the government Saying that ASU might just be applying More pressure And trying to force them to get to some sort of agreement But we already know that The federal government is yet to come To terms with the agreement of 2009 What are your thoughts? For God's sake How can somebody be talking About ground points negotiations with ASU For God's sake This is deeper For me ASU and the federal government Have been known for For more than almost You could even search in the exception Of this as we say If not people before the exception Of this as we say No more of agreement as in With ASU With the federal government Of the agreement ASU people have gone on strike Whether we only know For countries to strike Too many times in the last 10 years Are now combats And somebody is talking about ground points Negotiations In what way is that a ground point negotiation The ASU demands are very very faithful And I agree with them On the same number of those proposals Is I also have my reservation For another one For some for most Excited shouldn't they put On the platform In which all federal government workers Are going to be paid I think I agree with them The reason why the federal government is insisting On putting all federal government workers On ASU also on the same platform Is simply because they have awarded A contract So they are supposed to Build that platform Payment of workers And in which that the organization That got the contract Will be making money at the dinner Till the end of time So that platform
