Larryslim:
This a big dilemma for Atiku..
That's why unity must be Paramount in this country..
Some people are already saying if he doesn't pick from SE,he will fail..
We don't need all of that!
2015-2019 should be in our history book as the worst government ever,if we don't come out and exercise our franchise regardless of SE or SW VP,then we should be ready for another hell..

FBIL:
I am 100% Igbo! I just want Buhari to go; I am not worried if Atiku picks VP from the SW. But what worries me is that Atiku may lose SE drastically, I know my people. And the SW has no PDP sitting governor to bolster or guarantee voting PDP. Thus, if Atiku gets a lacklustre vote from SW, he may even get lower from the East. And this will also affect Igbo voters outside Igbo land. And he'll lose. May God open his eyes, so that selfish politicians don't deceive him. Buhari has to go!!

Zieina:


Hypocritical. Have you forgotten igbos' hatred for the hausas so soon? Is Atiku not hausa? VP slot should not concern you guys at all. Also, remember, "Nigeria is a zoo"

hateme777:

See mumu Ooooo. Are Igbos in isale ekဝ primary school ? Or in Ede amukoko ?. Are Igbos no longer going to schools in south east ? that they only attend Lagos schools ?. If Atiku choose an ipob for V.P Yorubas are more united than Igbos APC will get 95% of the south west votes because they won't play a third citizen to Igbos ..... If truly Igbos hate PMB let them sacrifice their political ambitions of VP to Yoruba, just to defeat APC then , history will acknowledged Igbos as politicians.

NIGHTMAREOO7:
U are talking rubbish IGBOS don't hate Hausa. IGBOS only hate buhari beacsue he hate IGBOS.
Is yaradua not Hausa? Yet IGBOS voted him massively. So keep quiet!!

Mynd44:
Only Ben Obi, Peter Obi And Ekweremadu are being considered

agabaI23:
[s]Im from the SE but Adesina will do just fine with me. I want his Agric revolution to start over.

If not, Peter Obi


Soludo should deal with Anambra after Obiano.[/s]

emeijeh:
See confusion.


OK let's do this


Obi
Chike obi
Obi
Out.


Indomie children will never understand

Elder

alexvatt:
Did Peter Obi grow Anambra economy in anyway? South West VP or else Atiku will loose.

8stargeneral:
Let him pick peter obi as vp,then soludo as minister of finance .

jaxxy:


I totally agree bt it cant be just anyone. It must be someone with a track record and influence. Osibanjo had influence on both Yorubas and Christians. All these SE names are still not it and have one political comma over them. Nobody of value in the sw besides Adesina?

revolt:
we dont need an igbo vp. Give tgat slot to the west. You know these westerners are heavily partisan and tribalistic so give them vp so theyd sheepishly not go and divide votes for atiku. Theyd rather vote a goat thats useless than vote a progressive thats not from their region. We need landslide victory over the lifeless dullard..

Ojukwudfugitive:

Slave, of you are deported again to your cursed land or Oba of Lagos threatens you again, you will be shouting marginalization. You slaves, don't you want Biafra again? You will always remain slaves in this country. If Atiku picks an IPod as VP, he is a goner because we can never vote for an ipod-tainted presidency as widely canvassed by Ojukwu the fugitive in 1993 when iPods voted for NRC at the expense of MKO, a southern aspirant. You will never get to Aso rock again.

technicallyrich:

u be big idiottt.i am ijaw and prouldly a biafran.
Na only talk oyorubas fit talk.
Cowardss.can your people fight for anything.
It is better to fight and fall like a real man,than be alive and be cowardss.
Dirtyy thingss that dont bat and stinkk like goat.

goaldynman:


A true Igbo will not first introduce himself as Igbo!

So run off you stinking Afonjah Headslammer!!

Zieina:
Igbo for vp, pls, so that PDP will lose out in the end.

CoolAmbience:


He is my former Governor and from Agulu.

Please, give me a figure for the number of jobs he created or a few job creation initiatives he developed and successfully implemented.

I am waiting please.

Frankyboy1:
It's a shame how Nigerians easily forget! Now Atiku is the Messiah to redeem us from Buhari, just as Buhari was the Messiah to redeem us from Jonathan, can't we deviate from the ruling class of politicians, what happens to a ticket like Lam Adeshina and Ngozi Okonjo, a deviation from these set of vote buying and delegate inducing politicians, what do you all expect from Atiku, same old pdp politicians will be recycled, they have been out of power for eight years, and will want to recoup back their funds, Atiku will spend so much with his cronies, and when they enter, you expect bread and fish to fall on your plates! Sorry, our youths are lost and will only settle for crumbs, a painful reality, does where his running mate come from affect the lives of the citizens of that region? Or it's only to placate your tribalistic hunger and cravings. If we don't demand for more, and support independent candidates void of political affiliation or tribal coloration, we will never ever get it right, just movement in circles

BlastAfonja:

so does that mean u want to stab him at the back now? this is National politics so shut ur trap. I am not from Anambra state but i will prefer Anambra candidate over Yoruba anytime any day you should too, and stop stupid playing holy holy that has kept our region marginalized. u weak brain!!.

Myself2:
As a Niger Delta man, my take is that the SW should be asked to choose from both the position of the VP and senate president, they need to be included at that level

CoolAmbience:



Why won't you? When pettiness is your emblem.

Why won't the region be 'marginalized' when we keep playing dumb politics.

It's now that you know the region needs to develop after 16 years of blind support for PDP.

My friend, go and sit down!

BlastAfonja:

No apologies for that bro.
ONLY Igbos can grow Nigeria and that is the bitter truth for Afonjas to swallow.

adonbilivit:
if Atiku picks a vp from SW, he should forget it. yorubas will not give him block votes, regardless. the SW votes will be divided ni. in the south we have 3 regions...SE,SS and SW...give the slot to SE and automaitcally the SS is yours as well. give the slot to SW and you loose the SE and SS and the yorubas(not SW coz more than 35% that make up that figure are from SE n SS) will still give you less than 50% of their votes. or are you telling me that 7m + 8m + 40% of 14m(5.6m for SE and SS folks in the west) which gives us 20.6 million votes is less than SW 8.4m votes?(14m - 40% of 14m for easterners and south south folks resident in SW). Atiku, looking at these numbers, 20.6m against 8.4m, I believe you know what to do.


to those quoting me saying these words of mine are lies, get out of your feelings. go to any school in lagos, for example, ask for the class register in the case of a secondary or primary school. Do the maths as to the proportion of SE and SS to SW pupils. what ever u get juxtapose it with their parents'/guardians/elder brothers votimg power. no emotions

alexvatt:
big lies. South West electorates are not controlled by anybody. Ask GEJ when he was busy sharing dollars to South West monarchs. Only one south west monarch told the GEJ the bitter truth that they are not in control of electorates in south west.

BlastAfonja:

the only fool i see that is playing blind and dumb politics is you. So what are you bastard saying? that we should relinquish our VP slot to another tribe? Are u really sensible or are u mothered by Yoruba woman cos sense is far from you.

BlastAfonja:

Have u Afonjas forgotten so soon?, what about ur normal "Atiku go to USA" line? now u want VP under ur same corrupt Atiku abi..
Atiku will choose VP from SE, if u people dont want to vote for him go and die..... SE SS NC NE is enough to give him victory.

CoolAmbience:



Lol.

Your illness must be incurable.

VP slot indeed...same dumb politics that doesn't consider number of registered voters per region in balancing power viz chance of winning.

It will be a collosal blunder for Atiku to pick his VP from the SE incase you don't know. Better for APC if he does.

Abeg, go find something to eat and take your medication jare.

oga even my state rivers is geographically located in the east,but things change,but from day one yoruba is no mans land.
