I am 100% proud Igbo, but strategically, Fayose will be a better choice.
Igbos trust Fayose more than some efulefu Igbo men like Orji Kalu, and Okorohausa, etc!
Go Fayose!

when will you guys learn to do things without creating enmity and insult. I see Atiku already loosing this with all these unguarded utterances from you people

This total nonsense typically Nigerian sentiment and lazy mentality. How can you leave the fate of yourself and the entire nation in the hands of chancers and corrupt politicians who had to bribe delegates to get the presidential ticket and you expect a change . All money paid will be recouped with juicy interests. Atiku will only bring thieves, like GEJ did, to come and steal more money and use it to boost his business. with what result, don't expect an end to insecurity, and killings nation wide, workers salary will still be a mirage, infrastructure and publics facilities will suffer as Atiku and his cronies would have shared all the capital among themselves. I think if Nigerians are wise they should tow a new line (with options available now) and cut off APC and PDP FOR THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION and usher in a new dispensation to be managed by the ever formidable mandate of the people. Follow this old wagons to your own peril. We keep doing things the same way and expecting a different result where is that done? Rally around Hashim Olawepo and see if your change emerge otherwise he must be dumped come 2023 for a better well groomed candidate of the future perhaps FASHOLA. This is the risk worth taking that you should be talking about not the above bolded.

Peter obi is still a good candidate for the post of vp but take it or leave it, it will be a very bad permutation/idea for PDP to pick a South easterner as vp.

godfatherx:

I'm 100% Yoruba and I think Fayose is a bad choice, Atiku doesn't need a popular name for running mate, his clout is enough, I will suggest he goes for a flawless technocrat who has never held elective office.
All known politician fraternizing with him at the moment, are with too much baggage, which might weigh both of them down.

Following the landslide victory of Mr Abubakar Atiku as the flag bearer of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) on Sunday, information available to us reveal that the jostling for who will be his running mate has reached fever-pitch.

According to sources close to Mr Atiku, he has referred the question of who will be his running mate to the party elders to decide.

This, many believe, would serve to heal any wounds that may have arisen from his landslide victory over Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State, who had been enjoying the unhinged support of Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State and the state delegates loyal to him.

There are many eminent PDP members across the country who are qualified for the role but discussions with top PDP apparatchiks at the venue of the just-concluded PDP National Convention revealed that the front runners for the position of Vice Presidential candidate are Otunba Gbenga Daniel (OGD), Governor Nyesom Wike, former Governor Peter Obi, Dr Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, Govornors Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa State and Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State.

OGD is a former two-term Governor of Ogun State and the Director General of the Atiku Campaign Organization who was able to garner the delegates from the south west states, except Ekiti State delegates, to deliver block votes for Mr Atiku at the primaries.

He is believed to be more suited for the job as he would be able to reduce the votes to and the dominance of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the south west states. He would also balance the influence of the current Vice President to President Buhari who is also from Ogun State.

Governor Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa State was the only Governor that openly supported Mr Atiku and mobilized support from fellow PDP Governors, in direct opposition to people like Mr Wike who publicly supported Mr Tambuwal.

Governor Dickson’s unalloyed support for Mr Atiku also contributed to his recent victory as the presidential candidate of the PDP.

Mr Dickson has been a stabilizing factor in the Niger Delta and is widely accepted as a grassroots politician with strong ties with the Yorubas being that his grandmother is from Ogun State.

His giant strides in various sectors in Bayelsa State continue to stand him in good stead as a purveyor of peace and development to the people in general.

Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala is the renowned Finance Minister and Coordinating Minister of the Economy in President Goodluck Jonathan’s Government. She comes with immense experience and capacity together with a largely unblemished public service record.

Though not a politician, her candidacy should put presidential hopefuls from the south east states at ease as she would not be competing with them to take over from Mr Atiku at the end of his single term plan. She would also help to rein in sympathetic votes from Nigerian women across party lines and ethnic or tribal affiliations.

Governor Wike is arguably the latter day leader of the PDP who has fought to steady the course of the party in the last turbulent years after the loss of the presidency to the APC. Though he did not support Mr Atiku in the primaries, pundits say that his control of the party systems through his appointed Chairman, Mr Uche Secondus, is very strong.

Mr Fayose is the current Governor of Ekiti State who stepped down from the presidential primaries race ostensibly to support Mr Tambuwal. Despite the fact that his candidate lost the governorship elections to the APC candidate, pundits say he still commands a lot of support in the south west states.

Mr Fayose, though considered a rabble-rouser by a cross section of the society for his many verbal engagements, should therefore help the PDP garner votes in the south west states as Vice Presidential candidate to Mr Atiku.

Last but not the least is Dr Peter Obi. He is the immediate past and very successful governor of Anambra State. Mr Obi brings economic sagacity and an unblemished public service record to the table but may raise fears from other possible successors to Mr Atiku at the end of the single term as being vice president would put him in pole position to take over.
