My Verdict On The Elections, South West & North Central Liberated by hopilo: 8:06am On Apr 03, 2015
The result that came from the south west and North central need to be commended because it shows balance and detribalised voting pattern. The rest in my views are not healthy for the Nigerian dream of being united and strong. The equalizer votes from Enugu that neutralizes the south west votes and the Kano bomb like votes that forced the sign of the cross from that sign language guy still show that tribal sentiments more than reasoning and rationale played a big role. North west, south south, north east and south east need to be receptive to every Nigerian regardless of region and tribe. Just my personal submission.

Well said but the country is not likely to change if the leaders don't do anything about it for instance, while asari was threatening from the south South, Jonathan never cautioned him, instead he had a sense of. They wer fighting for him being the brother but if jona had, shunned those militants, he would have gathered more votes from the ordinary Nigerians.. . And the ethical sentiment would have reduced. Now buhari has to work on that him self.

Now you can understand why SW is referred to as the most politically sophisticated because they are about the only tribe that doesn't use sentiment in electing people to political post

You think the West was detribalised? Wait until you get a Hausa man running against a Yoruba man, then you'll see.

I think that the North Central states stand a better chance of being termed a detribalised region because it is divided into a variety of people with different tribes and culture.

Beside this, the south south and south east, the north west and north east, and the south west are just discordant nations fused together in one entity. Much like putting oil, water and petrol inside a syringe. People are more loyal to these tribal delineation than to the geographic entity called Nigeria. This is what gave birth to the "them" against "us" mentality.

Until something wonderful happens, Nigerians will continue to vote along this tribal line.

When Buhari the messiah competed against an incompetent, corrupt and tyrant president from SW in 2003, we knew how the voting pattern of the SW was.

So don't think any one is deceived by your tribal politics packaged as sophisticated politics, no one is deceived.
