Implications Of Obi As Atiku Runningmate by tallfish145(m): 10:29am On Oct 13, 2018
Peter Obi becomes Alhaji Atiku Abubakar's running mate.
What are the implications?
As Atiku struggles to divide northern votes, west need to support Prof. Osibanjo. APC will give south east a serious attention during campaign which may eventually affect many PDP controlled States in the south east.
First time in the history of Nigeria, South South and middle belt will decide the outcome of the election.
Wrong calculation on the side of PDP:
Atiku Abubakar should have picked a running mate from the West, reasons being that there are more registered voters in the West than in the east. Secondly, south east and south south are known from history to be very good in deciding the outcome of elections through sympathy votes, protests and propaganda, but unfortunately, south south and middle belt will play the role of deciding the outcome of the election this time around, a role they are certainly not used to.
Critical issues:
There is no south western State that is controlled by PDP, therefore picking a running mate from the West to match Prof. Osibanjo could have been the best option for PDP.
Again, south east recorded low voters in the recently concluded voters registration.
Finally, governor Obiano will use this opportunity to teach Peter Obi a lesson he planned teaching him sometime in the past, the PDP arrangement presents the opportunity for Gov. Obiano.
Salient issue:
All South PDP Governors are avoiding Buhari and APC considering the outcome of Ekiti State election and Osun State election, therefore, Peter Obi as a running mate to Atiku is all about keeping David Umahi and Okezie Ikpeazu very restless and sleepless.
Continental assessment:
Gov. Wike will punish Atiku and PDP, and possibly loose his re-election as a governor.
Sen. Godswill Akpabio will be running riot in Akwa Ibom.
Amaechi will be on rampage in Rivers state.
Okorocha Rochas will be on consolidation.
Conclusion:
PDP will win the election on social media, especially on Facebook while APC will win the election right inside the ballot boxes, and then many lawyers will become millionaires through election tribunals.

OP, you are just being blatantly cheeky and sounding like a pained loser.
Those are your personal opinion and it doesnt count.

You are obviously Yoruba, hence your biased opinion.
Am not Ibo and wouldnt want to be dragged into your silly tribal diatribes between the Ibos and yorubas. But am forced to counter your biased and sentimental opinion.

Firstly, You sound like an APC supporter. And as APC supporter what concerns you with choices PDP makes about VP slot?
I thought u would prefer PDP fails in the election? Why are u pained if they made wrong choice in VP.
Secondly, If ATIKU or PDP had chosen a VP from SW, would it translate to SW automatically shifting support from Osibanjo to whoever Atiku choose from SW? Would u still not vote Osibanjo anyway?
Why are you so vexed that the slot went to SE? By the way, Wasnt Gbenga Daniel and other yoruba people in the Atiku caucus well consulted before the choice Bashan made?

Thirdly, Doesnt it make more sense of "all inclusion" for PDP to chose a VP from SE if APC has VP slot from SW?
Why are most of you Yoruba people always wanting to compete with SE and surcharge rhem? Why cant you get over these senseless tribal politics?

Peter Obi is the best candidate for the VP slot, though the former Agric Minister currently heading ADB would have been ok too if he needed a SW Vice, but in this case not needful to drag the man out of his Intl career into Nigerian polltics.
If SW choose not to vote for Atiku, it wouldnt be because he choose VP from SE, but merely because SW to play cheap tribal politics.

Finally, am not Ibo, so dont attack me from that angle.

Wrong thinking
SW votes for APC/PDP will not change. Each person will vote for his candidates , they are so rigid that not money nor campaign promises can change their minds, unless you rig the election.
SS and SE are naturally PDP strong hold, but Atiku must spend money to retain their loyalties, especially SE.
NW is for GMB
NE is for ATIKU
NC is the determinant zone, it will swing according to the campaign promises, money and association.
