..lmao!!..so its no longer 'sai baba buhari till 2023'??...In 2015,it was 'buhari will rull till 2023,after that Osibanjo will rull for another 8 years blablabla!!

...Funny clowns!!...you all sit down in one dingy corner making permutations in future tenses you have no control over..'Igbos will never rule,Biafra will never come,we will control the destiny of Igbos till eternity blablabla..

..Now its another set of calculations for 2019,with buhari's name missing

..Buhari himself on ascension of the throne was behaving like a demi-god with his 97% and 5% thingy,now he is lying sick while the 5% are alive and kicking and the 97% crying of hunger and starvation..

..Let the uncertainty surrounding buhari and 2019 presidency now be a lesson for you numb-skulls(apc supporters)..thats if you have any common sense ..Never say never is the watch-word of the wise.

Having closely followed Nigerian politics especially 2011 and 2015 elections, I believe there are enough indications to safely predict who and who might be most likely victorious presidential candidates in 2019.
Until PMB's recent medical trip I was convinced there was no major obstacle for a PMB's second term. This I believed was simply due to the lack of a viable presidential candidate that can challenge the president at the polls.
May I remind you in 2011 that people voted mainly against GEJ due to his failures (real or perceived). Likewise in 2019 people (the majority at least) may consider voting against PMB (also against real and perceived flaws), but the deciding factor is lack of a reliable opposition figure to do to PMB what he did to GEJ .
So foreclosing the above scenario due to the president's health gives room for predicting his likely successor. Going by the president's decision to play neutral in legislature leadership elections, it's safe to say the president may decide to do the same thing in 2019 regarding APC presidential candidate.
This brings us to the top five people I'd consider most likely to succeed PMB.

No candidate listed above.. is qualify to be the president of Nigeria.. The next president is coming from a New party.

4 Alhaji Atiku Abubakar
2019 might be the best time for Turaki to actualize his more than a decade old dream. His main challenge however is that he has more friends outside APC than inside. For example PMB still believes Atiku was part and parcel of the repeated mantra of 16 years PDP corruption. While he may overlook a minister or a state governor who may not have done much of the damage, Atiku especially pre-2003 was the de factor president. Therefore we all know Atiku wouldn't be the idlest candidate for PMB to support.
But due to the different vested interests in the party, Turaki could mobilize all the former PDP members in the party and we all know they are strong enough to hijack the party and nominate him as the presidential candidate. With people like Saraki, Tambuwal, Ameachi Dogara on his side, Atiku stands a very good chance against whoever Tinubu's camp will support. As I keep emphasizing, winning the primary election is the main issue.
5. SP Sen. Abubakar Bukola Saraki
Giving the Turaki situation above, the Senate president may succeed in beating Turaki to get the "PDP members in APC" caucus support. A crisis is likely to erupt and trust these cunning PDP members to exploit it like they did in the Senate president election.
Conclusion
Barring any major change like the death of the president (God forbid) or him anointing his preferred candidate outside these five (People like El-Rufai, but I believe he'd be more interested in a second term than this gamble unless the president asks him to fill in his shoes like OBJ did to Yar'Adua), I strongly believe the next president of Nigeria is up there.

Op I can't predict the future but I think the protracted corruption trial of the Senate president effectively ruled him out. It won't be easy for the best pr team in the world to surmount the challenges the picture below would bring

galaxy2020:

Lamido of Jigawa should be in that list.

jollymizzle:
if acting president osinbajo is able to fix the economic problem and falling Naira, then we already have a winner. He seems to have some ideas on how to solve the Niger delta issues. If he can successfully tackle the economic problems. Then it's an easy choice.

Edo and Ogun say otherwise.

EazyMoh:

There are five people of there, Tinubu and Osinbajo are clearly southerners, Atiku and Kwankwaso are clearly northerners with Saraki in the middle. OK agreed he's a northerner it's still a 60:40 ratio how does that translate to the rubbish you are typing?
You you don't insult me they never born you well!

WizBLANCE:

good in your newly made map of Nigeria the geographical region of Nigeria is only north and south? abi.... am from the East... can't find myself in your map and you expect me to sing for you?...

Keep shifting the goal post!
No easterner stands a chance in becoming a president in the near future, certainly not in 2019.
