The battle line has just been drawn! I will see who has more political strength among the SW and SE. As for Edo North, Sowore will get more vote than Atiku.

Sowore makes his money from falsehood and running people down such a person is not fit to lead people

Very good choice but not a political masterstroke. Atiku already has the igbos locked down but with this choice he has lost a greater percentage of yoruba votes.

the east can not hold the position of the party chairman and vice president, this is what we told them then, the igbo are greedy, with them holding those two positions, Yoruba will not get anything, I'm afraid for atiku, we trust Atiku but not igbos
. Be careful Uche Secondus is from South south not East.

Atiku and PDP would have stand a chance if they made a better choice by picking a more popular VP candidate, with this combo they will lose woefully next year.


Congratulations to APC in advance
is it really by that? how popular was yemi osinbajo when buhari picked him? it's politics n I'm sure he has weighed all his options

I had wanted that Adeshina guy, but I think Atiku calculated well

To those thinking the South west won't vote him, go back to 2015 elections and see for yourself whether APC got 80% in the west

Adeshina would have been another good choice but Peter Obi is the best choice. He is a politician from the south east, technocrat and has a wonderful track record as a Governor. South West will vote for who the electorate feel will do well. The region is quite cosmopolitan with Presidential elections.

Just one problem though, I hope the Igbo leaders manage their ego. History has proven that to be the hubris of the region despite her people being quite Pan Nigerian. Now is the time to bring people from all over Nigeria rather than gloat.

Me and I will Atikulect in 2019.

Between Jesus and Barabbas, one had to be released by Pontius Pilate; the people shouted, “Release Barabbas; crucify Jesus”. The people preferred a blatant robber to the One who came to fight robbers. GMB is too old, let him go and rest.

Vote for Hope 2019,

They are that horrible na, u don't know before now

They are ready to exhume Abacha and vote for him so long as he picks a Yoruba as VP!

Most of their actions since 1966 is mostly to spite Igbos.

They are so scared of Igbos to a fault lol.

Atiku should have given them the VP slot knowing fully well that Igbos would vote for him whether he picked an Igbo person or not!

All Igbos want is a secured, thriving Nigeria devoid or marginalization of any tribe, with a level playing ground, Igbos will always lead economically cool




You are right,but i dont agree that Igbo will vote for Atiku if he had picked a SW

...I can assure you that a number of those ready to vote Atiku would stay at home on election day if he did not pick someone from SE and that includes me.

...That will surely see buhari easily coasting to victory
It is dangerous to take people for granted like that..least of all Igbos

tosyne2much:
Was Osibanjo as popular as Obi when people voted him in 2015?
If u are Yoruba, u ought to know how Yoruba people vote during national election.

Yorubas and Fulanis are the most tribalistic tribes in Nigeria, followed by Igbo and Hausa then Berom, Ijaw, etc.

Yorubas consider voting for their tribal man or woman first before they consider competence. Same applies to Fulani.

But Igbos vote personality not even party.

Once Igbos perceive u as a man who loves all, respects all, supports business and industrialization and not a religious extremist, then Igbos will vote for u regardless of your party or popularity.

If APC present Osinbajo as Presidential candidate, Igbos will become divided on who to vote between Osinbajo and Atiku.

But with Buhari as APC presidential flag bearer, Igbos will vote even Sowore than vote for Buhari who happens to be a religious extremist and tribalist.

But majority of Yorubas are ready to vote for devil so long as that devil picks a Yoruba as VP and ready to openly marginalize Igboa while favouring Yorubas

That is how Yoruba people vote in national election.

Individually Yorubas are cool but collectively in national politics, they are very horrible to deal with

Yes, knowing Yorubas as the most tribalistic tribe in Nigeria after Fulani, they won't vote Atiku again.

Yorubas vote tribe first before competence.

Atiku ought to have given Adesina the VP slot just to get tribalistic Yoruba people's vote. And Adesina would have made a wonderful VP.

Maybe he could have picked Peter Obi for another appointment when he wins.

Seriously, Atiku has lost Southwest.

His advisers didn't advice him well.

They ought to have informed him that whether he picked an Igbo person as VP or not, Igbos will massively vote for him against Buhari that is well disliked amongst majority of Igbos.

Atiku u fall my hand walayi angry
vote tribe first and you think all yoruba people think like this.

I Can see some Yorubas congratulating buhari already becayse Atiku picked a SEs and i just laugh at the stuppidity of jumping the gun already,

i wonder why you lots think any election is about you folks...talk about delusions of grandeur/self-centeredness raise to infinity..

Anyway Atiku is the pass-word for my family and i.
how many Igbos have PVC n even in the north do u think the northerners want to have something doing with anything Igbo?n d SW will prefer to have a VP other than obi an Igbo man

If we are truly one Nijeriya, Igbos deserve a place too at the table...Atiku just cut their influence ɓƴ giving them a V.P. slot....a V.P. is useless in Nigeria; whose decisions can be reversed by even the chief of staff to the president. Except, of course, the president dies.
