Nothing would still have changed.

Inec rigged the election to make sure Tinubu wins. If Wike had given Atiku Rivers State, Independent National Evil Commission would have still rigged the required number to still make Tinubu winner.

The election has been rigged by APC even before the contest started,what they did in the election is just to keep modifying the results to match the pre rigged result.

Apc rigged all their candidates not only Tinubu into office even in regions we know that nobody would vote APC

Atiku would have won hands down
because there would have been no
G-5 breakaway & Rivers, Oyo, and Benue
would have gone to PDP and not APC
that eventually took those states.


Atiku is very arrogant and showed very
poor judgement and proved he couldn't
be trusted after he initially promised
Wike that Ayu should go.


I think Atiku's village people have followed
him to Abuja and Dubai.

I believe that Atiku should have selected Wike as his running mate and worry about how to cage him later,after all ,the main aim of contesting an election is to first of all win.
Comment below.

Not settling with Obi cost Atiku his last chance to be president.

You have shown yourself to be an extremely foolish soul. Tinubu won with 1.8M with. With Wike on the ballot Rivers alone will give Atiku a million vote the remaining 4 governors with financial warchest of $500K per state Atiku will win hands down. Don't forget Wike will be adding his own warchest instead of the liabilities like Okowa who even lost all Senate seat.

You won't understand. We all casted our vote freely,but they didn't upload it at the polling unit,they shut down the server,and took the results to collation centers and changed the figures. That is what happened in all the states they won and even the ones they got substantial amount of numbers. They did it everywhere.

In APC, party chairman is from North
and presidential candidate from south.

But in PDP, Atiku basically insisted that
Chairman and presidential candidate should
be from the north, this was the main
reason for the break. Wike insisted that
chairman should come from South.

this is the most free and fair election in Nigeria,people most vote their choice without much financial inducement. Inec has nothing to change about election result,they only collect,add and subtract results from the states. May be highest where there is rigging in the state like River blame the governor.
In the north we cast our votes freely without much interference from the Governors.


Omooo, even the blind could see that the election was rigged.. But no wam continue speaking english. The 10k you were paid, will serve you for eight years. Enjoy!!

Pdp would have secured about 2m votes alone in rivers ,and all those G5 states.

Wike as Atiku running mate would have posed a strong treat to Tinubu. Peter obi popularity would have been decimated in the south..
Re: What If Atiku Had Selected Wike As His Running Mate? by famology(m): 12:15pm On Mar 01, 2023
Some of us prayed Atiku shouldn't pick Wike. It would've been much closer than this honestly. There wouldn't have been anything like G5. The PDP would have been more united. Definitely, Wike would have brought in more votes than Okowa did, no doubt. But whether it would've been enough to topple Tinubu I can't tell. For instance, if Wike was VP, the PDP would have swept Rivers State with a much higher margin and the G5 with all their affiliates would've worked for the ticket too.

What they are also forgetting is that his influence goes way beyond the G5 states.

Sandy Onor and Donald Duke faction of the PDP did not work for Atiku, Mimiko in Ondo did not, Fasoye and his men worked for Tinunu, even the judgment in Kano that threw the state into crisis would never have happened and the state faction of the PDP would have worked for him.

There's no way Atiku did not lose 1-1.5m votes due to that foolishness.

We told them at the time they said Wike has no relevance. Everybody eye don clear now

Wike is of the opinion that president should rotate to the south. Wike wanted the presidency and not the position of a vice. Atiku is an alpha male, corrupt to the bones and selfish. His deputy should be a meek man like Goodluck Jonathan who is loyal and patient. Wike isn’t a Goodluck Jonathan and trouble would’ve brewed if he had accepted to be Atiku’s vice. Both wouldn’t win though. Wike and Atiku’s sharp practices would be resisted by Tinubu. Maybe things wouldn’t have ended this way. There would’ve been violence which wouldn’t benefit anyone. Shettima and El Rufai are there to fight dirty as well.

Wike might be crazy but I think it paid off for him. Tinubu would be satisfied that he got the votes not minding how it came about. He got the numbers and that’s what he care about. Obi and Igbos can’t resent or feel vindictive against Rivers state because they voted for Labour and without Wike’s interference, Labour would’ve won by a wide margin. Labour/Obi’s grudge would be against Wike and not Rivers state people.

Compare it to Buhari vs South East…there won’t be a scenario here where south east was neglected. Wike actually delivered Rivers to Tinubu and the federal government and would be expecting rewards in appointments. Wike didn’t think Labour would go far or achieve the result that they had…it’s a calculation which Wike got right in my opinion.

Things wouldn’t have gone right between him and Atiku. I don’t think both men can work together. Okowa is the right man for Atiku. Quiet and subservient like Jonathan.

By working for Tinubu and and rigging Rivers vote, Wike saved himself from Atiku. If Atiku had won, I hate to say what would’ve happened to Wike.
This is it for Atiku. He should go and rest. He has wasted money on a wild goose chase.

I dont think it would have made any difference if Atiku had chosen Wike. Wike has never been a politically influential man outside Rivers State

Some how, Atiku just kept making too much mistakes on the way. And he was so arrogant too. I guess he was equating himself to Buhari in the north. He thought he'll clear everywhere in the north.

I guess this is what happens when you listen to people like Dele Moomodu telling you that when two Southerners contest against a Northerner, the Northerner always wins.

Good riddance

I keep telling people that leadership is not the problem of Nigeria but corrupt followership.

Stupid followers keep seeing black and try painting it white just because their preferred candidate got away with evil. Tommorow they and their children start looking for justice and won't get but that is the seed they sowed.
