My sister this is Nigeria- being the best candidate alone wont win an election here you need to be popular and be supported by powers that matter.

Tambuwal/Buhari are not the best candidates in APC but (by Nigerian standard) either of them is the most auspicious option for the new party if they really want to give PDP a good fight in 2015.

In 2011 Buhari alone (with absolutely NOTHING) was able to win ~12 Million votes while GEJ/PDP won the Presidential election with about ~22 Million votes.

Tambuwal (House of Reps Speaker) is a PDP Stalwart with a-more-than-normal followership in the Lower House. He is not the kind of candidate PDP want to loose to APC.

Do not forget the ACN/SW factor in APC too: these people in 2011 have 14 Million registered voters only second to Northwest.

vire: The struggle for the heart of the delta: APC a political gamble.

As the notion of illusion of my
nation reach my mind, by the bridge.
I ponder why the fatherless die,
When the delta is filled with rigs
pumping wealth, from all its fertile land.

While America merry with wine,
I wonder at the game of England
When the Niger people cannot dine.
Ye bridge holding these wealthy race,
as if this will stop all the rising pain.
And this hatred for the northerner face,
birthed a mob that rose in the rain.

And this bridge that held my people
was stormed by a wave of ripple.

The creeks have always known the man that has raped her. She is ashamed to admit it that this man moves freely amongst just men. She was once a virgin, filled with pride and grace. She worked around and every man dreamed of her being is wife because of her beauty and how men lust to have her in their beds.

She fell ill and all was done to save her but the native doctor couldn’t save her and almost when all thought she would die the white doctor came ashore to preach peace and economic boom with his country and the people of the creeks.

As a people of hospitality they were happy to meet a new kind of humans and the medicine he brought to cure their dying virgin. She was taken to the doctor who administered the right prescriptions and all praise his God that has made the creeks alive again.

Unknowing to the creek the white man had other motives as he began to trade and relate with the creek. He was her very first rapist, who took her virginity and when he knew he was being discovered he sold her to her new master from the north.

There goes her virginity and pride has she became a sex slave to feed the lust of her former master through her northern master.

She had had different masters all coming with different promises on how she will be happy again if she allows them to be her only lover.

There came the civil war and again she was tricked into believing she will have a good life and like the naïve girl she is she allowed herself to be lured once again since she feared the new master coming from the east and would be comfortable with the old master she has known from the north.

She stayed loyal to every master till the coming of her new master during the 1999 election where she was promised by the PDP a lot of goodies. From 1999 till date she has served his lust and bore him so much economic boom, while her lands has being a place of burial and her people a people who are happy from the crumbs being offered her.
She is so insecure and wishes all her lovers will only be truthful to her.

A new lover is around the corner calling his name APC. He has come with a manner of gifts. He has promised her a clean environment, nice social amenities, a better share in the affairs of the nation, and a fair shares in the control of her virginity.

Like a woman who has being raped over and over again, she is in deep thoughts because with the present master she is beginning to know how to use what she has to get what she wants.

Call her a prostitute and she will gladly accept it has she has no one to defend her only the lust these masters crave for can she use as a weapon to bargain how she should be treated and loved.

PDP is here we know him and with his lust for the creeks virginity we have being able to control him but APC is coming can we trust him to treat and love us better. The creek is watching this new master and if he is good enough, maybe we would take off our skirts for him to have us raped once again.

Billyonaire: So, APC is shopping for Tambuwal, a PDP member to come and be their Presidential Candidate ? So, the entire members of regional ANPP, ACN and CPC could NOT have a single person to give them victory. Such a shame!

I advise Nigerians searching for an alternative from PDP to embrace PDM. An alternative has been created for those who feel the name PDP isnt sounding sweet.

In Governor Rochas Okorocha's voice:
"APC is not a Muslim party, neither is it a Northern or Western Nigeria Party, it is a party for Igbos as well, this is a party where our dream(Igbo President come 2015) will be actualized"
smh at Okorocha.

Ekykool: Why must it be a northerner

Candybob:

if he betrays APC it would be because of Buhari, that guy should let somebody else fly the flag. You think Tinubu has no ambition to be president too, but he is willing to sacrifice it for the greater good, thats the mark of a true political leader, why cant Buhari do the same? Buhari is part of the old stock, part of the army arrangement(Bless Fela) that we need to sack!

I had this problem with ACN during previous elections, first that crooked Atiku, then that lousy Ribadu! ACN always picked up vagabonds from PDP and promoted them as their flag bearers! Why cant they present credible candidates from within their folds, somebody who is part of the vision and understands what their party is about? We dont want some disgusting appendage of the PDP like Tam neither do we want Buhari...

APC should present electable candidates because i am yet to see any!
