Why Not Fashola, Why Must It Be Buhari For APC by olabukola: 12:42pm On Jun 17, 2013
I have always asked people following Nigeria politics this question but non has given me a cogent answer that will convince me to cast my vote if at all am in Nigeria during the election.

Fash has shown what he is made of going by what he has done in Lagos after 8 yrs of Tinubu which he did not do much. What can we use to quantify Buhari in terms of setting the standard for anything in governace. People always shout he is corrupt free and i ask is Fash not corrupt free?. Agains people both here and outside here make a lot of ref about his(Buhari)ability to win the votes from North eg last election but then SW votes alone including lagos will surpass the vote Buhari will accumulate from the north and at the same time the northners that will vote buhari will still vote for fashola but the same thing will not be said from SW votes. Infact SW voters will split between GEJ and Buhari if Buhari contest for APC.

Please we should lobby for Fash and i beleive he is the only candidate that can give GEJ a run for his money come 2015.

Note: I have no party affiliate.

You should know by now that APC without a Northern presidential candidate will lead to "no deal" by the Northerners.
The southerners there are prepared to settle for second fiddle - even if better and more qualified than their northern counterparts.

Specifically, APC is for a Buhari candidacy, and if the man kpeme mid-way, another northerner must replace him since they are "born to rule" others.

Being the senate president is nothing compared to being the president. The bulk stops at the president and i do no see the reason why Buhari and Fash should be in the same party and the party chose Buhari over Fash. Fash is far more better than him from which ever angle you look at it. If buhari become the president an Ibo man must be his vp if fash is to become SP. What is Buhari do a Yaradua in office?

You wrote like a northerner, Fash is proven while we cannot say the same for Buhari. Wanting a change from pdp does not mean we should accept anybody, let us present a formidable candidate so that we can see the Nigeria all clamour for.

APC = Arewa's Political Contention!

If the North does not produce the flag bearer, the merger will end up as just ordinary "maja maja".

And the whole set-up is simply a Colony of BAT (Bola Ahmed Tinubu) which objective is simple to grab power for sake of power never service. Otherwise, in which world will bigoted, sectional leader Buhari be promoted over the like of Ngige, Rochas, Fashola et al in the same party? Only in the Colony of BAT!

From the core of my Heart::::::::: May God Bless You !!!



If APC really wanna win elections,most especially Presidency,Northern Candidate (Not Necessarily Buhari) is their best bet !!!


I Prefer Ribadu(with Buhari backing up North) even if it warrants inscribing Buhari inside Ribadu's campaign posters ......uhmm hmmm !!! Buhari is good for ICPC job in the longrun !!!


In satisfying the question raised by the Op;

Subject to tribal/ethnic sensitivity of average electorates/Nigerians,it is not reasonable on the part of APC to present a South-western candidate for the post of President since OBJ( a westerner) ruled for 8years !!! ........ Whatever transpired in PDP should be considered in making decisions on APC's part !!!



Infact,APC should strive towards having more members @ the national assembly in 2015 ::::::::: and It would be a tougher game even when PDP wins Presidency in the longrun which may not be through First-Ballot grin !!!


Op do not berate the Powerful Office of the Senate President which I wished Fashola to emerged ::::::::: A sensible C-in-C (unless He is ready to vacate Office) would never wanna go in conflict with the Senate President unless the later also has a skeleton rotten in his cupboard::::::::::::: they could give each-other mutual destruction !!!

So in all honesty you will choose senate president over President. You guys can say anything to defend the choice of Buhari kai. What if Buhari did not win the election will Fashola still be the senate president? APC have to win the presidency b4 thinking of senate president.

Uhmmmm, Lets Get yo back to Government as a subject !!!


The party that controls majority seat in the senate will produce the Senate President ........

So,if PDP should win the Executive Arm and APC dominate the Legislative Arm then Senate President would emerged from APC !!!


Thereby Fashola can still be the Senate President if his party control the majority seat in the senate !!!
