The Vice President of Nigeria Namadi Sambo
will not be the running mate of Mr. President when the later steps out to
contest the general election next year February. This cityrovers.blogspot.com
can authouritatively reveal. We gathered exclusively that due to the enormous
pressure that politicians and stake holders are mounting on President Goodluck Jonathan,
he had no option than to drop the Kaduna state born number two man. Though, it
has not been made public, those who however know reliably informed us that the
vice president is definitely sailing to the end of the road as a landlord in Aso
Rock.
Many groups and camps have been singing the
song ‘operation ditch Sambo’ and this song has been on for as long as the beginning
of the administration. To many, Sambo the erstwhile Kaduna State governor is
more of a liability than being valuable to the president which they believe can
affect his reelection bid.
However, despite the unfavourable song for
Sambo, he remains a loyal deputy who can never rock boat no matter may come his
way; the architect-turned-politician, is less of an ambitious person who may
find ways of succeeding his boss in 2019 should the rulling party retains the seat.
Interestingly, the anti-Sambo crusaders feel betrayed that at times like
these when Sambo was expected to play a leading role in the anti-terror crusade,
he has been allegedly lukewarm to the grave issue. Despite his exalted
position, the crusaders feel he has failed and/or refused to play a more active
role in the government’s war against the Islamists (Boko Harah) for reasons
best known to him”. Sambo’s other sin is that he should have been in the
forefront of convincing the Northern elites of his boss reelection project
which he has failed to do.
Now the leadership of the party have settled
for the trio of Gov. Kashim Shettima of Borno , Jigawa State Governor, Sule Lamido and Minister of Education Ibrahim Shekarau as possible replacement
