Lets stop talking like election novices, the major determinants of vote is the presidential aspirant, vp add little.
2011 people voted for Jonathan, sambo was just a figurehead ,2015 the only song in peoples mouth was say sai baba osibanjo was just an icing to the cake so nobody should now come and confuse us VP is the cake while presidency is the icing. if north could understand emi lo kan in primaries they will definitely support him even he insist to do the right thing, not all nigerians are gullible

Stop lying, choosing him sway the votes of most christains and professionals to APC. Remember Buhari even went to Redeemed church to worship because he was looking for votes. Choosing him made a lot of difference. Stop lying to justify your assertion.

Don't mind the idiots. But what do you expect? Tinubu is the big masquerade at the market square, all other masquerades are afraid of himDon't mind the idiots. But what do you expect? Tinubu is the big masquerade at the market square, all other masquerades are afraid of him...

How many votes can any of them fetch him in the north? Do you think it’s a religious contest we are doing? If he picks any of them and loses election, what’s the benefit of such action?

Meaning it is not on competence to choose the VP but to persuade the muslim north, because you know the north will not vote for christain politician VP.
Besides, I thought you guys are saying Tinubu has structure everywhere, then, why is he afraid of his own shadow? I thought if he chose goat as a VP, he will still win. How myopic is that?

If osibanjo was what swayed xtains to vote for Apc/buhari, did pdp/Atiku not present a Peter obi who is also xtain ... infact peter obi as 2015 had more popularity and influence than a yemi osibanjo.
90% of nigeria electorates knew Yemi osibanjo during 2015 election, you can't convince me a person without popularity can have a humugous influence to sway a national election without a facilitator
You forgot a lot of political weight bigger than yemi osibanjo formed an alliance, where you put them saraki, tambuwal, nkwankwaso and tinubu influence gave osibanjo acceptance in the south west.
If osibanjo as influencial as you insinuated why did he not sway primaries to favour him

Please let us be truthful to ourselves, his inclusion in the ticket changed the narrative. Peter won the votes of Ibos for Atiku/PDP while the votes of other christains tribes work the wonder for Buhari/APC. Buhari presence in the Redeemed church camp changed the whole thing and made the christains to buy his ticket.
On the primary election, it is a party affair and does not concern non-party members and as we all know primary election in Nigeria goes to the highest bidder or somebody the governor or president want. Forget it, primary election in Nigeria is not a yardstick for popularity contest.

I am not disputing osibanjo didnt bring anything to the table, what i am saying is osibanjo input was an icing to buhari cake at that time and the truth being told Nigerians were fedup with pdp then .... any ss/sw xtain plus buhari at 2015 would still equal victory.
as per redeem influence i can relate atleast buh you're over emphasizing.
If primaries successors are not base on popularity then i doubt if you understand or have being following politics ... money asides, in PDP who as more popularity across the nation than an atiku, moving on to Aoc who has more popularity & reach than Tinubu in Apc. In politics popularity is a yardstick to convince others you have the sorted interest.
Havent you seen celebrities contesting election with rooted politicians in there constituencies and they will win, ... if you need update bankyW won eti osa under pdp thats popularity in play.

MUSLIM/CHRISTIAN GOVT OF BUHARI, SEE WHERE WE ARE TODAY-KILLINGS EVERYWHERE. WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF TINUBU RUN AND WIN WITH A MUSLIM/MUSLIM TICKET? CHRISTIANS VOTE WISELY!

They are looking for both competence and acceptability. The structures of Tinubu are at party level, and to some extent grassroots reach as well. You wait and see the result soon. Ekiti should have sounded a note of warning to you.

You are right, they are all light weight, but so is also that sickle cell traitor that Atiku Abubakar choosed, I mean Patrick Okowa. A Muslim-Muslim ticket will be unfair.

But it will be more unfair if he loses because he has listened to the voice of religious bigots. Nobody will even say sorry to him because they advised him to choose vice that made him lose.
