Afenifere have always been for restructuring if atiku can sign a binding agreement towards that regards he will not only get the support of afenifere but also Niger delta,ohanaeze,middle belt and arewa group. Atikulate seems to be the realist option against the lifeless one. 101 Likes 4 Shares |

Their adoption of Atiku is not conditional on meeting with Obasanjo. Afenifere has two camps, those who support the rulingg party and those who support opposition. The opposition is Yinka. They have always sided with pdp, as opposition camp thats their call. So why the razzmatazz about supporting Atiku after meeting Obasanjo. Before nko, who will the opposition camp support? 31 Likes 2 Shares |

Just wait till the campaigns kick off to know if Nigerians are truly angry with this government or not. APC’s popularity will be tested in Lagos. Buhari’s cult following will also be tested in many parts of the north. Who no know go know. No single individual controls Nigeria, It takes deals to win elections and for the most part, Atiku is ready to do what it takes 5 Likes 1 Share |

Afenifere that has not effected any political change in the SW since 2015 trying to stay relevant. In 2015, they supported GEJ, he lost. All the parties this group has supported against Tinubu-led APC in the SW have always lost since they parted ways. 2019 is the last battle to rescue Nigeria from the "owners" of the country. Meanwhile, OBJ cannot even win his polling booth in any election in the SW. Such is his political weight. 18 Likes 1 Share |

God is really wonderful and indeed he answers prayers. in 2017 arsene wenger was arsenal's coach and arsenal was loosing matches and not competing. Rochas was also the governor of my state and buhari the president. but today wenger has gone and arsenal has started getting the good results, Rochas will also leave in the next couple of months and as for buhari things are looking that buhari will go too. Good God please complete the good work. 5 Likes |

I don't think you understand the word restructuring, which is coming handy at a time like this in the history of Nigeria, its going to give complete balancing in all regions. 5 Likes 1 Share |

#copied. EMERGENCE OF ATIKU AND BUHARI'S CHANCE OF WINNING 2019 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IN PERSPECTIVE! It is no longer news that Buhari is the candidate of APC while Atiku is the candidate of PDP in 2019. It is also a known fact that both men are in their 70s, they are both Fulanis, Muslims and Herdsmen. Nigerians are now faced with a very narrow choice to make. While Buhari is of APC, Atiku is of PDP. Before 2015, a choice of party would have made a lot of difference in this election but after almost 4 years of APC, I am now of a firm opinion that there is no difference between APC and PDP. Apart from logo difference of broom and umbrella, both parties use the same colour, both parties are run by same men who are merely criss-crossing the two parties. I have not seen any ideological differences in the way both parties run things. Both parties don't know the feelings of the masses and don't believe in the power of the people. Both parties believed in using impunity in doing things. Both parties imposed candidates, both parties conjured figures and rigg elections to sweet their purposes, both parties have almost the same ideology. Therefore, the winner of 2019 Presidential election would be determined not by ideology as the two parties are one and the same and can only be described as two sides of same coin. 2019 election would largely be determined by a number of factors which include the way APC/Buhari has kept to the promises they made to Nigerians in 2014 and 2015. Nigerians will look around to see whether power has improved. APC promised 40k megawatts in 4 years. Nigeria will see whether there is improvement. APC promised creation of jobs and poverty reduction. Nigeria will look at what the government has achieved in this regard. APC promised to bring an end to medical tourism, Nigerians will see whether this has been achieved. APC promised affordable housing for all, Nigerians will take a look at this sector. On the part of PDP, Nigerians will cast their minds back to pre PMB era and make a choice whether to continue with PMB or take a detour with their destinies. Nigerians will look at the era of Boko Haram and bombing in Abuja, Sulajah etc. Nigerians will look at job creation and poverty reduction or otherwise. Nigerians will look at the economy as it then was and see whether it was worthwhile then and whether it is better today. Nigerians will look at the achievements of the governors of both parties where the held sway in the various States. I have noticed the Trend of Buhari campaign Media organisation and their approach at trying to demarket Atiku. I wish to state without mincing words that the approach of trying to label Atiku as corrupt, not being able to visit America, spent money to get nomination is a bad approach. Nigerians will not buy that. This same Atiku donated vehicles and cash to PMB in 2015 and those gifts were collected without anyone making issue that Atiku is corrupt. My reason is that both candidates are of same origin, they both spent money to get nominated. Nobody can get a party ticket in Nigeria without spending money. Even with Direct Primary of PMB, money was still spent on nomination even though in some states where the exercise did not take place, the money entered private pockets. I have also noted the approach of PDP in selling their market to Nigerians. I have not seen much insults being rained on Mr. President. They are only asking his handlers for his achievements in the last 3 and half years. This is not to say that insults are still not being passed. But their approach is better. I wish to call on the two sides to make the 2019 campaign robust and issue based, Nigerians now have statistical data about the two parties and the two gladiators. It is a great achievement for Fulanis in Nigeria to have their own nominated by the two major political parties and I congratulate them for this feat achieved. Head or tail, is Fulani-Muslim, so why should we make enemies for ourselves in the contest of two brothers of same parent just because we want to campaign for our party? Other Nigerians shoud be wiser and follow the campaign based on issue with peace. May God give Nigeria the best in 2019. Tolu Babaleye Esq writes from Abuja - Nigeria. 7 Likes 3 Shares |
