If you care to know, those oba are deceiving Jonathan. The only prominent among them that supports him is the Ooni of Ife, Okunade Sijuade. The Alaafin is a die-hard supporter of the APC. He even bought some motorcycles (okada) for the campaign of the party.
Like I always say, go to any newspaper stand in the South West; the argument you hear there will prove to you that Jonathan will lose the election.

Continue deceivin ursef, voters r 18yrs n above, whch means they r old enuff to decide on their own regardless of any obas, how many r d obas compared to d yoruba populatn, d only influence they can make is to assist pdp in electn riggin. Yorubas voted out pdp n voted in Apc in their states xcept for ekiti were it was rigged. We have woken up, n will nt allow any political/ greedy oba to influence our vote.

It is not a soothing epistle. Refuse to be a local champion and feed yourself with hard facts from average Nigerians on the streets. It's quite disturbing that your stance is certain when the person you want to vote for is jittery. Jonathan has visited the S/W severally during this elections. He understands that the North is lost to GMB already and his only chance of survival is the S/E and the S/W. The S/S is awfully divided against him he's not even banking on his own region, all thanks to Amaechi and Oshiomole. You might not really know this to be true if you stay in a place. Mynd44 mentioned the names of some of the Obas I didn't mention and you still believe it's a fable. GEJ would not have visited the S/W repeatedly if he had not seen the hand writing on the wall.

espn:
paradigm shift u say? Don't get it twisted. Omisore is from ife that was why he got that level of vote.. the presidential election is a diff ball game.. d Jan 1st subsidy removal saga is still fresh in our heart.

Sanchez01:
Funny how the PDP cannot just concentrate and face their strategies. The South-West people does not need its traditional rulers to tell them who to vote for. Someone's 21 billion Naira might be in vain here.

OLADD:


Are you aware of the role played by Oba Akinolu in keeping AC, ACN and APC afloat in Lagos?

ziccoit:


This is what GEJ doesn't undestand about SW politics. Experience has shown that godfatherism and co have very little influence in determining the voting direction of SWners. How much did GEJ dole out yo people before he was voted in 2011? Now that SWners are tired of his leadership style he is as good as gone!

OLADD:


By March 28 and April 11, you will know how politically influential Yoruba Obas are. Be that as it may, Buhari wll never win southwest. Mark my words.

OLADD:


Don't bother yourself with mind-soothing epistle. Just quote me after the elections. I am too politically awakened to be swayed with those fables. March 28 and April 11 beckons.

tuniski:
so newspaper stand is. Your opinion poll?Smh little wonder when results are out and PDP wins u call it rigged! Anyway, SW is the battleground but, GEJ/PDP will win the country!

EUROBOMBER:
Okupe was of the view that if Jonathan completes his second term of four years in 2019, the North has a chance that cannot be denied to present a candidate who will rule the country for another eight years.


Even the wise Northerners know this for a fact. Power will return to the North in 2019 and they will have their full 8yrs in power. Maybe a Nuhu Ribadu or Sule Lamido.

i think it is most likely to be atiku

MrEverest:
Absolute truism!! I wonder if the abokis have thinking faculty at all. Buhari is officially 72 years, rumours have been flying around that he is far from being healthy, his frail appearance also leds credence to someone, that aside from age related ill-health, is suffering from some terminal disease. People who fail to learn from history are condemned to suffer a repeat of it. Yaradua is still fresh in our minds & the instability caused by his not unexpected demise is still rocking the Nigerian state today!! If the rumours of Buhari's ill health is true & he does a yaradua on us again, will the north accept Osinbajo who would be constitutionally backed to take over?? The Yorubas know this & are cunningly praying for it but the Hausa/Fulani, in their desperation reclaim Aso rock asap, seem to have lost their reasoning & objectivity. Sentiments aside, the north stands to gain with GEJ who will definitely handover to a young & virile northerner & all to loose should they go ahead & support a very risky & uncertain Buhari who may not be able to even complete his first tenure judging from the complex & demanding nature of Nigeria. Sule Lamido will be the ideal man for them & all Nigerians come 2019. A stitch in time saves nine!!!

galadima77:


now, thats another corruption personified!

Pesuzok:


So is it GEJ that will choose my leader in 2019, i think you have forgotten about the electorates. What about GEJ handing over to igbo as he promised?

Zenimart:
And u think just because you support Buhari, every other yorubas will do likewise. If that's what you think, then you must be joking.
