That is if the election won't be rigged at the end.

IamANigerianMan:
Nigerian christians are very angry, we shall vote the only candidate we get .. Mr .OBI

Better don't play the religious card! If elections strictly go in that line you mentioned, Muslims will forever rule this country.

stanluiz:
Ipob need to be taken out first before you can achieve all this. Most especially their leaders in abroad together with their foot soldiers in the east.

This is what South East governors should do. But they too incompetence to do that.

Most of them are after their pockets and really do not care about the state. Our leaders seem to be dancing to the music played by others from other regions.

If they could sit up, sensitising the people won't be that difficult because people would be naturally drawn to them due to their exemplary lives. This is the lacuna that Nnamdi Kanu and his ipob boys are exploiting.

When are we shutting down Nairaland? we need to get our pvc

Benmob:
in see comment do u see he said Igbo are majority in lagos

that's Ina mentality here

CSTRR:

Even if Peter obi does not win, he need to pull at least third or second.
He can do it.
If he can pull that off, then he becomes a serious Force to be reckoned with in subsequent elections and political parties will want to woo him.

Igbos too need to ensure they vote this time and keep voting.
Don't go back to apathy.
Politicians only respect votes.

Tinubu is respected today because they believe he controls a bloc vote.
And he uses that bloc votes to bargain.
Take that away, and nobody give a fucckkk.

An active voting Igbo population will become president sooner rather than later.

The ones they are have been voting since 1999 what has happened ?

I am beginning to think there is an grand conspiracy against Igbo president. Why should SE have 5 states while other region have 6 and 7. The civil war is not over. What's happened in 1970 what just a sieze fire. The civil war is now fight as a form of cold war.

Low numbers of state. Low numbers of Representatives in the Nass. It is too bad. Your vote will not change that.

If Tinubu actually wins because he has the advantage. That means the South East will wait for another 16 to even hope of getting the president.

Can igbos wait for another 16 years to have president ? The answer is No. This is the reason why there is biafra agitation in the East.

stanluiz:
Merge what ? Kwakwanso don't what to be obi vice and vice versa.

With what is happening now. What is the hope of Igbo nation in Nigeria politics. Pdp has Atiku as their candidate and he will pick his vice from SS. They have don't consider SE any longer.

Igbos don't have any stake or structure in APC. Ogbonnaya onu, Umahi, okoroacha and other igbos in APC are wasting their time. Umahi and okoroacha think asslicking buhari will give them president but buhari has throw them under the bus.

Peter obi will not win in 2023. Highest na 3rd position be will see. But I like how he dump the useless pdp and go and Contest in another party.

Now what is our plan B in 2023 now that the president is not coming to the South East?

Our plan B should be building a formidable presence or voice by giving Obi a good votes i.e higher than expected, which may be a boost for him in future elections, my point is in politics decanting and so on is not a new thing, if obi can pull a good number from the east and quash that apathy mentality others have as regarding Igbos and elections, it will help any aspirant of Igbo decent in future contest when the ticket is open to be contested for.

And also, taking part in politics fully, i.e let others know our real number.



There are many huddles OR odd against APC in the next election, just as Buhari didn't tamper with this primary, I don't see him tampering with the general election.

Forget Buhari and power of incumbency and control of INEC. Atiku has been nursing this ambition long ago and I believe he must have done a lot of assignments on that.
Truth be told, I see him winning this. I see kwankwaso stepping down for him somehow somehow.

As for APC presidential ticket, it is only people who deceive themselves that thinks there is any other candidate that can challenge Tinubu for APC ticket, most of us knw that but we're just being hopeful on anything happening.

To your question, if Obi can pull a surprise by having a higher than expected number of votes, it may give Igbo region a boost in actualizing an Igbo presidency OR give them deserve attention from anyone who end up becoming the president.

Atiku has more chance than Tinubu, so it may be just 8 years.

You can see I and that man you quoted has the same view, which I think is very good.

You get the point bro, that is same thing I told him.

JaredNormak:
This is the reason Hausa, Fulani and South-Waste people don't want election to hold in South East, if you're looking for the sponsors of UGM and no election in Igboland, hold this evil APC government responsible.

They know Igbos have the numbers, and they've dreaded the day ever Igbo man will unite for a common purpose. Igbos should tighten security around them now because these vultures in APC will put up a despicable fight just to dampen the spirit of Igbos during this election period and distract them from voting.

Every hands must be on desk to disgrace the sponsors of UGM and chase away the "No election in Igboland" chanters.

Now it's time to break the evil hands holding this nation down, and I believe Igbos are capable through unity of purpose.

you get it jare.

How To Sell #PeterObi To Northern Nigerians...

No South Easterner can win a presidential election in Nigeria without the support of Northern Nigeria. This is not a curse, it is a statistical fact.

Based on the above fact, the major task of supporters of The Peter Obi Presidential Campaign should be to market Peter Obi to Nigerians in the North. To achieve this, I've come up with the following strategic ideas:

1. Translate All Peter Obi's speeches to Hausa and Fulfulde .

2. Buy Radio airtime in major Radio stations in the North where Peter's Translated Speeches and interviews will be played on a weekly basis.

3. BBC Hausa is vital. Get in touch with them. Grant regular interviews with bbc Hausa and other Hausa and Fulfulde platforms .

4. Create Physical presence through liason offices in key Northern cities. These offices should be functional and effectively engaging grassroot formations to propagate the message of a new Nigeria.

5. A powerful Northern Nigerian deputy from Kano, Kaduna or Kastina - the super 3 Ks.

6. Create a Shadow Cabinet with Shadow Ministers..
A Shadow cabinet doesn't have executive power since they are only executive members of government in waiting. Distribute key Shadow Ministries to the 3 Ks. This will create a deep effect in the political conversation in the North. The Shadow Ministers will operate just like normal Ministers, they should be given official cars and their job will include to criticize the original Ministers in the current administration - offering a better alternative to the unsolved problems of the current cabinet. Shadow cabinets are powerful opposition tools. This alone could place Labour Party as the main opposition party displacing PDP which is almost on its way to the grave.

7. The North is Nigeria's most politically conscious region. They don't vote money, they vote interest. Protect Northern interest in Nigeria while ensuring a balance in the South.

8. Supporters of Peter Obi must avoid getting into social media wars with Northern Nigerians. Stop the subs....they are your partner in constructing the new Nigeria. I've always maintained that the North is not in enmity with the South. Some evil politicians created a fake division. Peter Obi must expose that division and seek to be a unifier. Supporters of Peter Obi must have at least 10 influential Northerners who are partners in the Rescue Nigeria project.

9. Avoid religious misunderstandings. Respect each other's religious opinions.

10. Protect Northern businesses in the South and vice versa.

If Peter Obi is successfully sold to the North, you will see a political miracle in 2023.

Forget those who believe that nothing can happen beyond pdp and apc - when I was building the Gemsbok Group brand, such people also told me that an African cannot build technologies and export it to America etc. They laughed at me until I did it.

Peter Obi is a builder... laugh at him with caution.

Please pass this message until it gets to Mr. Peter Obi and his campaign team.

Peter Obi no be Igbo movement; he is a national movement for those who yearn for better governance.

I'm yoruba, and me my relatives, friends and neighbors are all going to vote for Peter Obi.

Either home or abroad, I must preach the gospel about Peter Obi's candidacy to at least 75% of Nigerian folks I engage with daily.
This is not about party, tribe, nor religion -- this about we and this modern day slave traders who want to turn us into their perpetual slaves/mugu.

Sick, corrupt septuagenarians and octogenarians with archaic ideas seeking office -- we say, NO!

....if we have up to 20% of Nigerians with your mentality then there is still hope for this country

Yeah, anything happens, he will step in

fergie001:

A southern Christian would've been the best bet for APC, but let's see how Tinubu will campaign

JaredNormak:
Usu, must you lots complain about everything Igbos do?

They promote Obi, you bleat that his supporters don't have PVC.

Peter Okoye of P Square tries to influence his people to get PVC, you Hatewedu drinkers complain that he's feeling to bossy.

Some Obi supporters show their PVCs, you start telling them that getting PVC is one thing and voting the right person is another thing. Are you lots eternally cursed with foolishness? Them tell you say they want vote Nsi azu Tininbu and before?

Now Igbos all over Nigeria are mobilizing to get their PVCs and you're crying initial gragra. If not for the feeling of humanity I have in me, I suppose use Oraimo charger wipe you for neck like 20 times at least.

oraimo na better quality oo

Kyase:


Yeah, anything happens, he will step in

He won't.according to the new electoral act,they will be new primary but he should wi n

garfield1:

Oh really
Nope the next time, there will be a consensus

fergie001:

If care is not taken,tinubu would narrowly take crs...me and you know that with se gone,no state will give pdp massive votes except delta or Adamawa which is unlikely

Kyase:


A southern Christian would've been the best bet for APC, but let's see how Tinubu will campaign

A southern christian like obi or wike but there not in apc.amechi really tried,I salute him.osibanjo is worthless

Kyase:

Nope the next time, there will be a consensus

Yes since there will be no tinubu to contend
