Penguin2:Do you live in Rivers? I know you're an igbo man and also an obi supporter, it's normal for people of your stock to hate wike . I live in Rivers and wike is very influential. If he wasn't popular he won't pull off what he did he the last election without getting hurt. In the SS region James Ibori is the most influential, followed by Akpabio and wike. Core SS love wike not the hate filled obi supporters. 2 Likes |

garfield1:You can't say Udom isn't popular. There's also a thing as negative publicity ( popular for bad or wrong doing) Being popular equates to being widely known. Okowa is popular to an extent. Running with Atiku plus the publicity of him renegading the south made him somehow popular. |

garfield1: Like I told you some days back, I was in the field during the last election as an observer representing a CSO. Everybody in Rivers state knows the election was rigged in favour of APC at the presidential election and PDP at the governorship election. Even Asari just today confirmed that SIM was a product of rigging https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0eLiegLSb8odDXULCWFF6A1szYm3xr29R6hmb6o5zbKmDPdBu6xJuUM3Z1PQDy3dol&id=785203974&mibextid=Nif5oz |

Aiel123: People don't speak fondly of udom.if you are familiar with aks people,the love akpabio,oba and then onofiok luke.udom is just there like imoke.i believe that's how okowa is.okowa popularity is limited to anioma |
Re: The Most Popular and influential Politicians From South South by Aiel123: 4:14pm On Jul 25, 2023 |
garfield1:Yeah. Soon he will work his way to the top. He is one of the few politicians that understand power and is loved. I see Akpabio leading the onslaught against PDP in Aks( If Umo survives the court,he won't have it easy for reelection) |

vanitybutiwanti:Are you aware that there’s a huge difference between “being influential” and “being popular”? If we are talking influence, nobody would deny Wike of being influential. But popularity? No. IBB, TY Danjuma, Abdulsalami, Obasanjo, etc, these men are influential but can rarely win their polling unit for anybody. So, know the difference. 2 Likes 1 Share |

mrksquare:What makes Amaechi a decent man? I know you hate wike but that doesn't change the fact that Amaechi is the biggest thief that ever ruled Rivers, during His tenure, there was a month Rivers got 100b from the FG, he still went on to steal as minister of transportation, who sent soldiers to kill people in Abonema? There's nothing descent about a man that is rumored to be a faggg, he doesn't have the people on his side that's why he was unable to win elections in Rivers. Only gullible people in Rivers believe Amaechi is a decent man

garfield1:You got what I was trying to pass. Being popular is different from influential. I will say Okowa is popular in his LGA. Not Anioma as a whole. |

mrksquare: But rivers from 1999 had been rigged so why complain now? Fubara was always going to win based on pdp and wike strength but from irev results,tinubu got 25% as I predicted.if it was amechi,tinubu wont see anything in rivers.were you in all the over 3000 polling units? Why must you conclude based on a handful |

mrksquare:There's never been a free and fair election in Nigeria, talk to politicians around you. Ask them what it means to win an election? Many of you on the internet live in a bubble. The person that rigs the most comes out victorious. |

Penguin2:He's influential and popular, Are you aware that he produced the majority and minority leader in the house the representative? The majority leader is an APC member from Edo state but he was wike's lecturer in school and he wrote a book on wike's governing style. Just today, a list of members appointed into the North East development board was sent to the Senate for approval and his ally and close friend and leader of PDP in ward 17 here in Obioakpor made the list. You're an obi supporter and your mind has been made up, no matter what he does you'll always hate him. It's normal. 1 Like |

vanitybutiwanti: Thank God you have acknowledged that fact. But @garfield1 is still wallowing in delusion to think that the outcome of the last presidential election was a reflection of the wishes of Rivers people. |

Penguin2:Lol, Bayelsa people love wike more than his Rivers people, sylva has been everywhere with wike because of his elections, Diri had to beg ibori to settle their fight, Everyday people in Bayelsa pray and wish they had a governor like wike, I'm hosting a friend from Bayelsa this weekend, a senior civil servant in one of the institutions in Bayelsa and he loves wike. You're an igbo man, you think everyone hates wike like your people? Even amongst your Igbo people, he still has supporters especially in Abia State, when PDP lost in Abia, some PDP members called out ikpeazu for not having guts like wike. Wike also gave 500 traders in Ariaria 300m before the elections. Not everyone is hate filled like you people on the internet, if you meet wike today, you'll bow in deference despite your hatred for him 2 Likes |

mrksquare:There's never been a free and fair election, when core politicians seat down to talk about winning elections, they strategize on how to RIG the election, reflection of wishes or not, the highest rigger always wins and you can't rig if you don't have the people on your side. That's why Amaechi failed in Abonema in 2019, he wanted to rig with the soldiers but the people came out to defend their votes. |

English isn't our mother tongue so you can forgive the OP.
