I have no problem in Buhari picking Okorocha or any South Easterner as his Running Mate, but politics being a game of number will make me advise him and APC not to. The South East is bent on voting for Jonathan of PDP. This ordinarilly makes the VP slot worthless, because the sloth itself is supposed to bring more votes from the geo-political zone. 6 Likes |

Nctrice:It is like you don't know the electoral populations of each of the 36 States. Bayelsa votes is not even up to that od Alimoso LG, the Whole of SS votes is just a little higher than that of Kano State, combine with Borno State and the SS votes is overshadowed. However, the plan is to further encroach into Rivers/Edo and Delta States. 6 Likes |

barcanista: My broda ... judging from experience the south will go for Jonathan and will vote based on regional intrest irrespective of party. we may have different views in the state level but for presidency its 100% jonathan.. I don't see the APC Giving the V.P slot to the South... and a Muslim/Muslim ticket via GMB/FASHOLA will not sell. There is also the power of incumbency. 4 Likes |

aljharem2:Guy Aregbesola is the "Awo" in making. He is a complete grassroot man and can connect with the yoruba populace. As for Falae flying PDP ticket, that won't happen for several reasons, Falae is not the regular politician, he has Standards which he haven't compromised over 2 decades and PDP aren't smart to field a Falae, they prefer doofoo Sambo and Clown Jonathan. 4 Likes |

Gentlemen, all these permutations will amount to something assuming the votes will count. As long as the body language of GEJ and Mama Peace shows they'll to continue beyond 2015, GEJ will not abdicate the ASO throne for anybody. As it is, even if the opposition pairs Buhari(Moslem) with Pope(Christian) and election comes today, PDP will still win and issue usual statement 'go to courts if you're not satisfied with the outcome'. GMB, Atiku, APC should know better and contribute to nation building some other way 10 Likes 1 Share |
Re: .... by Nobody: 5:30pm On Oct 17, 2014 |
OboloMAN:Which experience are you judging from? First, SS is relative and it is not of any particular tribe. The Binis and Itsekiris for instance are more closer to the Yorubas than the Ijaws or Ikwerres. Even in Rivers State, tribal sentiment is not really a deciding factor. Like I said, GEJ will win the majority vote of SS but will not enjoy super-majority in Edo(especially) and Rivers State. As for incumbency, wakeup bro, APC and PDP will attempt to rig, but you can only rig in your stronghold or a neutral ground. You can't rig in opposition stronghold. Incumbents lose election, even Akala of Oyo State in 2011 and the PDP in Edo in 2007. 5 Likes |

Barcanista, you conveniently analyzed 2007 twice and forgot all about 2011. Well, i shall do the honor. Buhari tried your gambit: A Yoruba vice-presidential candidate and he failed woefully in the SW. Gbadamasi Buhari chose Tunde Bakare as his running mate to rapturous applause from the likes of you. Even the litte known Ribadu even got some votes than Buhari in the SW. What does this tell us? That Buhari is very unpopular outside his core constituency. Even the NURTW and market women of the SW solidly reject having a murderer (the extra-judical execution of a bartholomew Owoh and co), a thief (millions missing from NNPC in 1978 and a liar (Abacha did not steal) as president! And so shall it be in 2015! 23 Likes |

barcanista:I don't support APC VP slot going to the South West. The continued membership of Fashola, Aregbesola, Tinubu, Akande, etc and the feat they achieved in that part of the country are enough for Yoruba people, believed to be sophisticated, to vote for APC. I will rather have the APC give the VP slot to the South South, Amaechi in particular. This will help in breaking the votes of Jonathan in the South South, his strongesthold. |
Re: .... by tit(f): 5:34pm On Oct 17, 2014 |
The SW wants the VP post because they forsee a Yaradua situation in 2017. if Buhari kpai in two years time, we would be back to square zero. The north would be foolish to present Buhari as presidential candidate. 7 Likes 1 Share |

tit:In 2011, Bakare isn't a politician, his choice was politically naive of the CPC. Also CPC was a 6month old party, they had splitted from ANPP. AC was the in-thing in SW as at 2011-Thanks to Fashola performance. The ACN werent serious in 2011 in the Presidential Contest but they wanted to remain in National Politics. Despite that Bakare had no political value no political structure, CPC still had few votes. We are not talking of just CPC or just ACN here, we are talking about formidable APC, with political value, integrity, incumbent governors and money. 5 Likes |

barcanista: Barcanista!!! your hatred for the Igbos, I hope it won't cause cardiac arrest oh! 1. Yorubas always voted their son, yet they didn't vote for Pastor Tunde Bakare? 2. You said Gani Fawehinmi is very popular across the Niger and a Yoruba too.. please what is the result of 2003 election he contested? even Jim Nwobodo had more numbers than him!.. 3. According to you, when PDP won both SE and SS convincingly, it was because SS was massively rigged while SE wasn't rigged 4. Until recently, all but 1 state in SS was in control of PDP!!! (Edo was won in court) please which region is any government in power AGIP?? 5. Maybe you don't know, as at 2007 election, out of 5 states in SE, PDP only had control of 2, Enugu and Ebonyi, Imo and Abia went to PPA while Anambra was Apga... Why do people still call SE AGIP?? 6. PDP was voted out in Anambra and Imo state despite their power of incumbency! have such happened in your region barcanista? 7. Before defection of late, how many member of the national assembly from SS were from the opposition and how many from SE? 8. Discuss politics but please put your hate for the Igbos aside. you cannot hate them and expect them to vote you in power 9. If GMB wants the Igbo vote, maybe he should this time try to campaign in Igbo states!! otherwise, Igbos will give 100% to GEJ 10. Ka chineke mezie okwu m 29 Likes |

You people are just deceiving yourself. This is Africa Incumbent presidents don't loose elections either by votes or by crook. JONATHAN WILL WIN 2015. I voted him in 2011 but he disappointed me just like he disappointed my Yorubas and will not vote him in 2015. Until the body INEC is truly independent like it name implies Jonathan the incumbent will win. Abi no be president go release funds for election. 1 Like |

I don't hate the Igbo Barcanista!!! your hatred for the Igbos, I hope it won't cause cardiac arrest oh! 1. Bakare isn't a politician, CPC was NEW, AC was sweeping the guber level of SW and the AC didn't support the candidacy of CPC as the contested to remain relevant in National Politics. Hence, their choice for Ribadu and Adeola. CPC wasn't popular and had not political structure in SW in 2011. 1. Yorubas always voted their son, yet they didn't vote for Pastor Tunde Bakare? 2. Gani again ran under NCP, the party with little or no money and little or no structure. Beside, in politics, you make alliance with strong blocs to displace incumbents, coupled with the fact the the Yorubas queued behind Obj in 2003. 3. My friend I am talking of SS where I know that there was heavy rigging. Ojukwu lost in EVERY state in the SE in 2003 and 2007, so also Uzor Kalu in 2007 4. You are talking Nonsense. We are talking of Presidential you are talking Guber. 5. We are talking of Presidential poll. What concerns me with which party you vote as governor? even Kano voted CPC in Presidential and PDP in Guber. 6. As in 4 and 5 7. Rubbish 8. Keep your vote for Jonathan 9. GMB don't really "NEED" Igbo vote. We all know where the Igbo vote is heading 10. Whatever[/quote] datolee: 3 Likes |
