Governors That May Not Return In 2011
Aliyu Shinkafi, Alao-Akala, Patrick Yakowa others top the list
Out of the 36 serving State Governors in Nigeria many may not return to their seat of power come 2011. Reasons behind this might not be far from failure to win the confidence of the people, emanating from lack of performances and mainly because of many political miscalculations, policy summersault, and failure to continuing getting the patronage of powers that be and godfathers.
Top on this list is:
Aliyu Shinkafi, Zamfara State Governor:
His sins and obstacles:
Now, the two doesn’t see eye to eye anymore. Shinkafi’s confidence is based on power of incumbency, having all the State apparatus at his disposal. His second option also lies in pitching his tent with PDP, the party at the centre and also notorious for its ability to win elections at all cost.
Meanwhile, Senator Sani Ahmad, Yarima Bakura, still enjoys his popularity as the Apostle of Sharia among the people of Zamfara State and also his monumental achievements while in office between 1999 and 2003.
Aliyu Shinkafi’s marriage to the one of the daughters of this General is now looking him at his face. The marriage which was early seen as a good political move by Shinkafi may now be another obstacle to his second term ambition owing to the ambition of his father-in-law, who may be forced out of PDP anytime from now if President Jonathan Goodluck still insists to contest under PDP. General Babangida is been linked with move to a new political party in order to join forces with other northern leaders to ensure power did not leave the North come 2011.
Should Jonathan declare his ambition to contest as President in the next general election on the platform of PDP, then all Governors in the Northern geopolitical zone are in for a serious electoral headache and maneuvering because it would be suicidal to contest for any gubernatorial seat in the seven states of the North West geopolitical zone of the country as the people of the zone will feel they have been shortchanged by PDP.
This will definitely lead to new political alliances and re-alignment in the zone, a move that will only favour all other parties except PDP.
Adebayo Alao-Akala, Oyo State Governor:
Ladoja is banking on the support of Ibadan elites who are clamouring for a son of the soil.
Few hours ago, Akala was in a show of shame at the National Secretariat of PDP during the NEC meeting, where he threw caution and courtesy to the wind by confronting a statesman, Alhaji Yekini Adeojo, who was unperturbed by all Akala’s vituperation.
YES! YES!! YES!!! all is true about what will and will not happen but we are still for getting about the so called NIGER STATE Governor,so called (THE SERVANT LEADER,PEOPLES ELEPHANT AND ALSO TALBAN MINNA) for GOD sake what has he done to better the people of NIGER STATE, who is he supporting? What makes him think he’s going to win the 2011 poll come January 2011? Lets say the truth i’m looking forward to see his own part (misleading)the people of NIGER state.IS HE A TRUE SERVANT LEADER?
