Unfortunately the current political realities does not favour your candidature. The election is squarely between buhari and candidate of PDP. And from the look of things, PDP will not give you ticket. On the other hand, you can emerge from any of the minor political parties. But You and I know that Nigerians do not vote for candidates of minor parties no matter their credentials. We only shout and post online what we want, but In reality, the reverse has always been the case. It is really a big problem and very pitiable.
You have said it all

He is obviously looking for a VP spot.....

It's not feasible though
Zoning things
The only way he can stand a chance is if he goes to a party where the presidency is not zoned to the north apc and pdp already zoned it to north.

[quote author=chieyine post=68314689]I think he has the presidential charisma more than Sowore and Fela Durotoye but against Buhari and Atiku, it will be difficult.

Re: Donald Duke Declares For 2019 Presidential Election by dane15: 1:13pm On Jun 09, 2018
I can see some people hating on Donald Duke because he said what he believed was the truth about Jonathan and Okonjo.

I can see that some people's lives just revolve around Jonathan. Jonathan this, Jonathan that, Jonathan up, Jonathan down.

Come on! Even Jonathan has moved on. Get a life! I really see no difference between this set of guys and the APC who blame Jonathan for the most ridiculous things like the Harmattan.

The attitude of Nigerians should be objective enough to vote any non-performing President out. In 2011, we believed in him and all voted massively for him not considering his tribe. In 2015, he didn't perform well and as an elected public servant that he was, we kicked him out. The position was not his birthright, he was a PUBLIC SERVANT for crying out loud. We do not regret voting Jonathan out and we will do it again and again.

We voted Buhari massively again, believing that he would bring real change but after 4 years and with so much bloodshed and little response from him, if care is not taken, the people will kick him out too. Of all the issues Obasanjo raised about him, there were four he could not respond to which may lead to his downfall:

1. Nepotism 2. Dividing the nation 3. Health 4. Blame game.

Does his performance justify retaining Jonathan? NO! Because we need to create a culture where public servants know that if they don't perform, they will be sacked.

Finally, I believe that it is time we try another option and do away with all tribalistic, emotional and religious sentiments. I don't see this current government getting better next year. History has proven that 85% of elected governments do worse in their final tenure. Therefore, it means that if they have not impressed now, maybe it is time to move on to younger, more virile, forward-thinking, articulate and visionary leaders. I am not canvassing for Duke but compared to all our former Presidents till date, he will definitely be an upgrade.

The likes of Sowore and Fela may be too green. They should test the waters at the State level or National Assemblies first.

Long story short, APC and PDP please let Jonathan rest. Let's stop using his name as excuses (APC) or as a reason to disqualify "credible candidates" (based on Nigerian Politician standards) because they criticised Jonathan in the past (PDP).

I rest my case.

Yesterday was set agog after Donald Duke made his intentions known.
This was during a dinner organized by Law Students Association of the University of Nigeria at Golden Royal Hotel Enugu.

I think his formal declaration is a starting point.
What do you think?

Good move

Nigerian Lazy yoots what do you really want. Is it a PVC that will not count since we are pretenddig to be in a democracy or any leader that addresses SOCIAL SECURITY as a core issue in his Manifesto. It will shock you to learn that while we are busy fighting media wars on Naira land children of APC members of state and National assembly, as well as childreen of Top brass in Police, Army, Navy that were born just yesterday have been enrolled as Niger delta militants SECRETELY being paid SOCIAL SECURITY before month end. AMAZING that ordinary 5000 naira bank alert APC said no money but is ready to sign holidays, look for dead men to give award and allow Monkeys to steal money in broad day ligh with IMPUNITY. Yoots do you want a a young person that has a manifesto of social security which means receiving bank alert of 65000naira to 1000,000like Yusuf Buhari or drag for PVC that at the end of the day you cant buy the type of food you want to eat, your family will harass you that you are lazy and the President will tell CNN. Amazing, IF YOU DONT KNOW YOU DONT KNOW and will continue fighting media wars on naira land or paid 500naira to snatch ballot boxes on election day

This is good.

With the crop of candidates that declared their intentions before him, I was ready to vote President Buhari for a second term. Donald Duke has a spotless criminal/corruption record and he has a good reputation from his time as governor. I'd like to see his manifesto before making any decisions though.

U know anything so ? Every past Governors are criminal . Quote me and die
Re: Donald Duke Declares For 2019 Presidential Election by Ken4Christ: 2:04pm On Jun 09, 2018
He doesn't contribute in any way to the issues and challenges facing the nation unlike Sowore. I don't see him as a good candidate. I don't want another ice water man as a president. When there are issues in Nigeria, you don't make input. It is inconsistent with the nature of a true politician.

Can't really say if this is a good or bad thing.

This was how buhari won the 2015 elections. It wasn't because we were pro-buhari, but we were desperately anti-jonathan.

Nigeria as it is now is anti-buhari more than pro-(insert candidate of your choice) and I fear we could end up repeating the mistake of 2015 and electing another younger and saner buhari if we aren't careful
