My Face Dey Show My Shoe Dey Shine: Wike Sends Cryptic Message To PDP Set To Join Forces With Tinubu
Asake would say, ” My face dey show, my shoe dey shine, Omo ope gara gan”; This slang is reserved for senior men, such as your boss, with whom you are pleased.
Clearly, this is how to describe Nyesom Wike right now, “him face dey show, him shoe dey shine,” Wike would remain the most beautiful bride for the time being, and this is understandable.
As the campaign season approaches, every political bloc, particularly the League of outgoing governors, is hard at work strategizing to be on the winning side.
If not carefully managed, this group of people may fade into obscurity after 2023; with many of them still in their mid-50s and early 60s, this could mean permanent retirement.
Therefore, it is important that deliberate decisions are made in regard to the bigger picture, which is simply maintaining relevance following the general elections. The only way to do this is to fully support the predetermined candidate.
Before I go any further, it is a universally accepted fact that countries only produce presidents from the two dominant parties.
Wike now appears to be working in tandem with Abia State Governor Victor Ikpeazu and Benue State Governor Samuel Ortom.
Their movement would be similar to what the PDP senators and governors did to Jonathan in 2015, which proved fatal. Hours after meeting with Atiku, these men held a press conference where they kept harping on the bigger picture, which they claim is savaging the country.
The press conference held yesterday effectively put an end to rumors that Wike would remain in the PDP. It is clear that the Rivers State governor is on his way out, as his statements were cryptic.
I’m curious how many APC governors have meetings with Peter Obi or Atiku?
Joining the progressive stage at this time is the best bet for Wike, whose state is the fourth with the most registered voters and also one of the richest. This means that the State should have a vested interest in who becomes President.
When you look at all of the presidential candidates and their chances, it is clear that Tinubu’s camp has the most advantages for a variety of reasons.
The last presidential election saw Atiku run alongside Peter Obi for the presidency, while Kwankwaso was fully supportive of the duo, the three candidates will be competing against each other next year, which means their votes will be divided.
The South-South, which has a strong PDP base, is currently split between the Peter Obi craze and the traditional PDP enclave, not to mention Tinubu, who is from the South.
Cross Rivers has an APC governor who serves as a rallying point for the party, whereas Delta State would be difficult to seize from Atiku’s running mate, Okowa.
However the rumors that Ibori is defecting to the APC, if they are accurate, would be upsetting, particularly in light of the fact that Omo-Agege, the Deputy Senate President, is running for governor on behalf of the APC.
Edo, which has historically supported the APC, would put up a strong fight with Peter Obi working his magic. The APC, PDP, and LP would fight it out for the state here.
Akwa Ibom would split its votes between the three major masquerades of Tinubu, Atiku and Obi, same goes to Bayelsa which has key APC members from the State as well.
Rivers has the population and money, where Wike dances to gives whichever party he teams up with leverage in the State.
The South East would undoubtedly be a battleground for Peter Obi and Atiku, with Tinubu receiving significant support from Ebonyi and Imo States. Above all, IPOB’s opposition to electoral participation would deplete additional votes in the region. (This means that the votes cast here may not have much of an impact.)
The Northern region as a whole is the most sophisticated region in terms of voting; they have a history of always voting on principles, and the North is where the APC has its strongest Governors, who are clearly in the majority. The North would be a battleground for Tinubu and Atiku, with Kwankwaso a distant third; Obi would have no chance here.
This leaves us with the South-West, which is completely behind Tinubu.
What would you do, then, if you were in Wike’s shoes, especially if you could see more clearly that local indicators point to Tinubu winning the majority of the states outright?
See the cryptic message as sent by Wike in his press conference.
“Whatever we are talking about, is for the interest of Nigeria and Nigerians. It is not parochial and tied to one person or group of persons. We believe that with what is going on, it will be for the interest of Nigerians at the end of the day.
Leadership is not about you and your family. Leadership is about everybody. It’s unfortunate that we are in a country now where a man finishes eight years as a governor and brings his own son as a governor too and as member of National Assembly.”
After consulting with everyone and preaching to us that his next actions would be for the sake of Nigerians, he ended by slamming Sule Lamido and other PDP leaders.
“E b like the person wey say him dash another person Goat but he refuse to leave hold of the rope wey e take carry the goat come.”
” My Face Dey Show My Shoe Dey Shine “Wike is the town’s newest bride; proceed with caution. Simply knowing this brings peace.
Meanwhile, keep an eye out for Wike and his “HIS BAND” during the upcoming electoral campaigns.
