Labour party don’t know how to play the game – Ahmad

“One thing I am so happy about is that our opponents, especially those in the LP completely don’t know how play the game, when it comes to number. They’re the minority (fact), but their sole job on here is insulting and blackmailing the majority nonstop and that makes ours easier,” Ahmad wrote.

Read his thread below.

In my state, Kano and neighboring Kaduna, Katsina, Jigawa and Bauchi, the Labour Party doesn’t even have a whole gubernatorial candidate, if you don’t know what that means then congratulations!

Woefully, insult is their only strategy to win a follower, and the level of their entitlement is an another fine story of its own. https://t.co/cu3AIbJY9I

See Aunty @KadariaAhmed campaigned for PO, but his army don’t even care to not attack her. We are right when we say they don’t know how to play the game. There are certain people those PO army don’t want to see or require their support. They have SE in the bag, and that’s enough. https://t.co/E7duCEpOsw

The PO supporters never fail to remind me about the results of my primaries, forgetting that the fear of getting 0 vote made their supreme leader, Peter Obi to run away from PDP to a tiny LP, which I am sure with my influence I would be begged to accept its presidential ticket.

All of a sudden, the Supreme Leader’s supporters are crying in my mention that I should leave them alone and focus on my candidate, so Asiwaju Bola Tinubu is my presidential candidate, with presence at each of the 176,974 PUs in Nigeria. Whose candidate can beat that? None! ♾

Did you know that Labour Party doesn’t have an office in Kano, a state with over 5,000,000 registered voters, not only that the party doesn’t have a single candidate in the whole 44 local governments in the state, and the story is so very similar in at least 25/36 states and FCT.

Alhamdulillah, thank you Sister Moe, Hijab is now acceptable, and seems to be no longer an oppressive piece for our innocent sisters.

And, is this also an indication that the Obi Presidency will accomplish what the Buhari Presidency couldn’t, the ISLAMIZATION of Nigeria? https://t.co/cyCCRD4kRI
