enemy of progress.

they will disappoint you and settle it amicably

but make Tinubu sef rest...Haba!!!

hollandis:
Amaechi is just an errand boy,nearing oblivion,I wonder how an elderly man can be so easily brain washed.Even Mama patience has insulted him ,and all port har ourt indigenes cursed him.

Anyway when wike becomes governor ,he will destroy amaechis houses and build a road on the premises,and a sign shall be erected that reads " former premises of Amaechi,the traitor of portharcourt"

Kenai:


Well, maybe for you o. But where I come from, we don't give a rat's aass about them in general.
Berom people can speak Hausa, but that doesn't make them so.
Mohammed, Abdul and Yakubu are names of Arab origin, but we have Nigerians answering them. That doesn't make them Arabs.

Ikwerre can face their identity issues on their own for all I care, but over here Amaechi is not our brother, and his name isn't enough to earn him my vote.

doctokwus:
Tinubu shud not show his face near dt VP slot.Same goes for osibanjo or whatever dey call him.It shd b amaechi.,oshiomole or even fayemi.
Any of dt wi b a winning combination.

CharlesPhc:
Now let the fight begin....!!!

Amaechi, come back without the VP ticket and you are finished politically...!!!
Tinubu, this is your last and only opportunity don't be out smarted...!!!
SE now or never, go Okorocha go...!!!

Rotimi Amaechi, governor of Rivers state, has revived his hopes of getting the vice-presidential ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC), launching a last-minute move to dislodge Bola Tinubu, former governor of Lagos, who had looked all set to fill the slot.

Backed by Bukola Saraki, former governor of Kwara state, as well as some APC governors opposed to the candidature of Tinubu, Amaechi got the enlarged meeting of the party’s leadership in Abuja on Monday night to reset the entire selection process.

The opposition to Tinubu is based on the need to avoid a Muslim-Muslim ticket, an argument that will also knock out Babatunde Fashola, the governor of Lagos, who is well loved in many parts of Nigeria.

Tinubu is also being opposed on the basis of his “past” ─ although his supporters argue that there is no case against him, neither has he been convicted in any court of law.

Muhammadu Buhari, the presidential candidate of the party, had ceded the choice of his running mate to Tinubu as the political leader of the south-west, which is the second largest voting bloc in the country.

In his calculations, Buhari had sought to avoid the mistakes he made in the past when he picked his running mates all by himself, deciding that a major power bloc should be involved this time around.
However, the south-west caucus of the APC met for long hours last weekend and could not come to a definite decision, but narrowed down to Tinubu and Yemi Osinbajo, a professor of law and former attorney general of Lagos, as well as Adams Oshiomhole, governor of Edo state which is in the south-south region.
Buhari is said to be “unenthusiastic” about Osinbajo because his gamble with Tunde Bakare, also a pastor, did not work in 2011.

But the presidential candidate is also worried about the backlash of abandoning Tinubu, who is expected to deliver the south-west in the 2015 poll.

Amaechi, who had been the biggest financier of the Buhari bid, had been left in the lurch, but his maneouvers in Abuja on Monday night may change the course of events.

Not only has it changed the direction of the discussion, other southern zones are now making a strong case for the VP slot.
The south-east, which had initially been written off as a no-go area for Buhari, is now asking to be considered, with former ANPP chairman, Ogbonnaya Onu, former Anambra governor, Chris Ngige, and governor of Imo state, Rochas Okorocha, being given a look-in.

The enlarged meeting has now pushed the decision back to Buhari to make by himself in what will potentially put the former head of state in a tight corner.

Dotng:

Of what electoral value is Amaechi? Can he guarantee the votes in the South East? What political loyalty does he command in the South East?

duni04:
Buhari is 71 and Tinubu is 62, and these guys are the change agents we need?

retepmurt:
I can conclude that amaechi hs been the one bankrolling sahara reporters to pit their tent with buhari.
For the past 24hours,sahara reporters has been waging press war against the person of tinubu
Sahara reporters is obviously championing the selection of Amaechi as the vp candidate to Buhari.

Vikky014:
i also blame GEJ for nt sending u to sch. *mordified*dnt mind me.

Habeyy:
sup with u

tit:
show some love to Tinubu.
it is not fair.

nduchucks:


Showing love to Tinubu in this case is tantamount to giving the clueless one a free pass.

Descartes:
Democracy in action




Tinubu has something up his sleeves



This game is becoming interesting


Don't be deceived by their antics, though it's the part of the game.
To me APC has chosen the VP to the Flag bearer Buhari since after the primaries. All these political dramas are ploys to keep the ruling party busy thereby taken them by surprise at the end of the day

Cogito ergo sum

Wisdom is a function of Humility and indeed the Principle thing

aguiyi:


mugu, una no fit unite pick a running mate na to unite win una go fit do abeg park well

Kenai:


SE will not trickle a single vote for Buhari because of Amaechi, please.
Amaechi is Ikwerre, not Igbo. And we don't see them as our brothers.

priscaoge:


Y won't u pick a weak brain? I'm not surprised,be assured He's not going anywhere
