Kwankwaso is a bit popular in the north. No lies about that. The only thing that will determine whether he can go head to head with Buhari in the next election is the person he chooses as his VP. If he chooses an igbo man who is a bit popular among the masses and doesn't have much stain on him, I will say he will give buhari a good run for him money.

I like Kwankwaso. He was my state governor and I know the good things(especially the numerous scholarships he gave to students) he did as a governor but baba Buhari is still the password.

Sai baba Buhari

lol...Kano is not North. He can tackle Buhari in Kano to a fault, but not the entire North. Buhari will still beat him hands down in Kano, not even with Ganduje, PMB and the rumored romance with shekarau. People of Kano may split vote against the sitting governor but they will go for PMB over Kwankwaso in the Presidential elections. Kwankwaso's main aim is to make sure Ganduje does not return as a governor. He knows deep down Buhari will win the presidential elections.

I don't agree here.

Due to the low registered voters in SE, it would only hurt Kwankwaso. He has to pick from SW... at worst SS.

He must somehow split the SW vote. Then get the NC, SS and SE vote.

Metuh:

After picking a SW VP, ghosts will vote for him in SE right?

SW will vote for Osibanjo any day anytime.

RMK19:
Buharists nightmare.
He is a match for match with them.
He has the track record, competence, supporters and political connections.
Even the mad supporters he get them to counter Buhari minions.

[s]The SE is politically inconsequential as at today. Even if Kwankwaso refuses to pick a deputy from the SE, they would still vote PDP. However, that still leaves Buhari intact with his Northern and SW votes.

However, if he picks a vice from the SW, he would have managed to break into Buhari's support base in the SW. Also, the predictable SE would still vote PDP.

The SE has sold their future to the PDP and that's why even the PDP refuses to recognise them in decision making.[/s]

You are right to some extent. But saying Kwankwaso's presidential ambition is just to tackle Ganduje is what I don't agree with. They don't agree with one another, yeah everyone knows that. What did you think his kwankwasiya movement is all about? About Ganduje? No sir. Kwankwaso has been working to become the president since 1999.

He had to leave Apc because Buhari wanted another term and as the astute politician that I know he is, he already knew Buhari will automatically get the APC ticket, so why should he fight over what he knows he can't win. Is now or never for Kwankwaso. And he can put up a good fight against Buhari if he did his homework very well.

We all know that there is no way Kwankwaso can defeat Buhari in NE and SW. These two regions are locked down for Baba Buhari. But the NW,SE,NC and SS will be up for contention, anyone with a good PR team and enough money to spend can get the needed votes from this aforementioned regions.

Kwankwaso in very popular in the NW. Their votes in the NW might be split 55/45 between Buhari and Kwankwaso.

Take for e.g, I'm pro-Buhari but my siblings are pro-Kwankwaso. And this is how it is among many families in the NW.

I still believe Buhari can't be defeated due to some certain factors which favors him very much, but again nothing is entirely impossible in politics.

Who ever thought Buhari will defeat Jonathan? Trump defeated Clinton and nobody saw that coming. Possibility in politics is never washed away. You have to look at things at all angles.
