Elder statesman and Chairman of the Northern Elders’ Council (NEC), Alhaji Tanko Yakasai has reacted to the choice of Peter Obi as Atiku Abubakar’s running mate in 2019.

DAILY POST earlier broke the news on Atiku opting for the former Governor as his running mate in the 2019 presidential tussle.

Yakassai in a statement described Atiku’s choice as a balanced one owing to the fact that Obi is a Christian and from the South-East.

He, however, expressed doubt whether the choice of Peter Obi is the collective choice of the majority of the people of the South East.

The statement read: “ It was expected all along that the slot of the Vice President should go to the South East for the PDP as APC has chosen the South West.

“What is not ascertained is whether the choice of Peter Obi is the collective choice of the majority of the people of the South East.

“Atiku Abubakar/Peter Obi ticket is a very good one. Atiku Abubakar is a Muslim from the North while Peter Obi is a Christian from the South just as Muhammadu Buhari is a Muslim from the North and Yemi Osinbajo is a Christian from the South. Everything is balanced.”

wrong... Only paid Tinubu foot soldiers are.

Majority of the Yorubas are happy. Please go offline and stop using nairaland as a yardstick.

Mr yankassi the decision is a collective one of the entire south east.

"Atiku Abubakar was born on November 25, 1946 to a Fulani trader and farmer Garba Abubakar, and his'
second wife, Aisha Kande, in Jada village of Adamawa State." (GOOGLE, WIKIPEDIA)

No wonder!!!

Nigerians be WISE!

Obasanjo ruled 8 YEARS (WEST)
Yar'Aduwa ruled 3 years and 3 months (FULANI) NORTH
Jonathan ruled 4 years and 9 months (SOUTH)
Buhari ruling to 4 years (FULANI) NORTH

NOW Atiku wants 8 years (FULANI) NORTH

THAT WILL GIVE THE NORTH a total of 15 years and 3months of our new democracy
While other regions are waiting... And YORUBA will have to wait longer before returning to power!

BETTER LET BUHARI FINISH another 4 years and leave.
Then the north would have ruled only 11 years (which is still more than any other region!)
Let other regions rule for the next 24 years straight from 2023-2047 and that will change Nigeria for better distributed growth

LET'S BE WISE...fulani herdsmen are killing our people and you want give one of them another 8 years?

#iStandWithBuhari
#BuhariTill2023

"Even if Atiku is a direct descendant of Lucifer & a cousin to d devil
himself & best friends with Judas, paternal uncle to Cain,a distant cousin to Achan, Ananias & Saphira, or an elder brother to Pharaoh"

Will we try him

If he ended up like PMB, we will vote him out in 2023

Whoever Atiku chose as his running mate, will not guarantee his election as President. Nigerian's are wiser now.

buhari and the northern muslims used religious sentiments to send GEJ to otuoke but this time its a northern muslim vs a northern muslim so the issue of religious sentiments have been neutralised


atiku all the way!!!


nigeria is about to be atikulated!!!

Now we are watching i support pdp before but seeing you ibo only now i know you people are hateful According to ibos, those pdp votes in Ekiti, Oyo, Lagos
, ondo and Osun are ibo votes. They are already
claiming 52% of SW votes. Any Yoruba that vote this
ipob party in 2019 is a fool because his vote will be
counted as ibo votes. This is an avenue to marginalize
SW if they win(God forbid). They will claim SW didn't
vote for pdp but ibos in SW.
Ibos have been trying every avenue to destroy Nigeria
since 2015 because gej lost an election. It would be
foolish to allow these traitors in aso rock. They will
use every avenue to destroy Nigeria and no one dare
try criticize the govt. They will curse anyone that dares
and claim it's their time. They will tell you how you
hate ibos if you criticize the govt and loot the country
dry. These hateful mongrels are not fit for the office of
the President. It's like giving your arsenal to the
enemy.
