Why Is This Man So Powerful In APC Yet So Quiet? by Penguin2: 9:00am On Dec 18, 2021
When leaders of APC are counted from North to East to West, Buhari is APC leader in the north, Tinubu is APC leader in the West and guess who the APC leader in the East is, Ogbonnaya Onu. A fine gentleman.

I’ve listened to different interviews of APC insiders especially those who don’t seem to like Tinubu, and they never fail to mention the fact that Tinubu is not the only leader of the party; all of these people have mentioned Ogbonnaya Onu. I think even Amaechi did at one time.

But if you think only Buhari men recognize him, then you are wrong. I recently stumbled on a picture taken at the book launch of Pa Bisi Akande in Lagos, which was what informed this post, and Ogbonnaya Onu was posing with Buhari, Tinubu, Sanwolu(because he is host governor) and Akande for a photograph.

It’s just a picture but it spoke volume. It shows that these people know who is who in the scheme of things of the APC. They know who played what role and who is at what position?

Since 2015, we have never heard that Ogbonnaya Onu said this or said that yet he is one of the most influential people in APC and no one disputes that. Even some Nairaland guys here who are privy to the workings of APC can confirm that.

Even in his native Ebonyi state, despite Umahi’s defection to APC, I can confirm to authoritatively that Ogbonnaya Onu has the final say on what happens in Ebonyi APC and Umahi dares not go against it. If anything, Mai Mala Buni, the current caretaker chairman of APC is his longtime ally from ANPP and you know where that places him.

So my question is, why is this man so powerful and influential yet so quiet? No media warriors, just him and his business.

I won’t be surprised if he pulls a shocker in 2023.

He is simply not a noisemaker... According to the book 'The 48 laws of power', it says: "... In the game of power, the most powerful is not necessarily the most vocal."

Lol!

Tinubu and his media urchins are too loud for his own good.

Now look at the content of the book that Bisi Akande published...

You can’t tell me Tinubu was not privy to the content of the book.

Now the two of them decided to insult everyone else but themselves thinking it’s the best way to launder Tinubu’s image ahead of 2023.

Yoruba can never ever be united .. even with all tribal show.. they are not united..

Wait make Tinubu get ticket grin and see how his Yoruba people will do a 360..on him.

They’ve been together since 1999. From APP to ANPP and now to APC. I think Buhari knows him more than he knows any southern politician.

Yes.. they have been friends for long and the man is not ambitious like the Oda one in bourdillon.. most often than not people who are not over ambitious always gets to the Top and I tink buhari will be very comfortable handing over to onu as president from Igbo extraction without fear that biafra will be actualised than giving it to a Tinubu who is so desperate and can betray his trust wen he gets into power

That’s it.

Buhari and most northern powerbrokers know that Onu is not an opportunist.

He didn’t defect into APC because of power, no, he has always been in opposition and has always been Buhari’s ally.

That’s unlike Tinubu and his fellow Southwestern opportunists who had always demonized Buhari until they saw him as their shortest route to power. And that’s suspicious.

If anything, I can tell you that Onu has more than friends than he has Igbo friends or even Southern friends.

That man is a silent mover.

This is a very wrong insinuations..

Firstly ONU has been a minister since Buhari First time and there is nothing he will want to achieve since the state is in opposition until recently that things change.

Secondly He was part of the merger that brought in APC.

Thirdly he is appointed by Buhari and he will do anything to keep that post than rock the boat...



If you think Buhari will wake up and hand over to him then you must be dreaming...
