Ignore the Governors at your own peril. They've just told you they will work for Buhari reelection and you're doubting it. All they need to do is allow APC have a field day during the presidential election. Your vote becomes meaningless.

Most of you don't understand politics, you just make noise.
Perhaps, you need to update your understanding of south eastern politics. Igbos won't obey their governors' as long as the subject of the discussion is centered on Buhari. An average Nnamdi or Chinedu in Aba, Onitsha or Owerri won't vote for Buhari because their Governors don't like Atiku's choice of his running mate. It is simple: Igbos are independent, and they guard this fiercely.

Stop talking nonsense. Peter Obi lost his polling unit during the last election.
Atiku got Peter Obi recommendation from Wike that backed Tambuwal 100%.
Atiku has rubbished his ambition


Useless and stupid anology. That Obi lost his polling unit during the last election doesn't in any way means Atiku's choice of him as his running won't sway south eastern voters. Obi never contested the said election. Igbos always go for their interests in any presidential election. The decision will always be to use between Buhari and Atiku. And you want me to believe that Igbo votes will go to Buhari? Perhaps, you don't live in the south east.

Exactly. The guy needs malaria treatment. If Igbos are asked to choose between Buhari and the devil, they will choose the devil. Buhari's candidature is unsaleable in the south east.

The idea is not for APC to win SE, the idea is for PDP not to get massive votes from the SE as expected. Many of you don’t know politics
Yes. The idea is for APC to get votes in the south east, shebi? APC will get votes in Onitsha, Aba, Nnewi, Enugu, Abakaliki, Owerri?

You think Igbos have forgotten about Operation Python Dance? You think we have forgotten about Buhari's disregard of Federal Character in making his appointment? You think we have forgotten about Buhari's bad management of the economy that led to the Igbos losing their money? This is very simple: We are business people. Atiku is a business man. Peter Obi is a business, and you believe we will give our votes to somebody that could not increase the number of his cows in 4 years? Common efi? Common cow?

it seems like a lot of u guys are neophyte and novice when it comes to political assimilation, nobody is talking about Buhari winning elections In the SE..but the governors can play a spoiler by giving Buhari enough votes of 20-30%,affecting what should naturally be a clean sweep of votes by Atiku in SE region

and if this scenario plays out, then Atiku's ambition is dead on arrival, because he will need at least 80-90% votes from SE to surmount votes Buhari gets from NW/NE region

It’s not about voting, it’s about the custodians of the process not backing Atiku. It will be disastrous for Atiku

Most of you are not politically intelligent that’s why we igbos keep losing on the scheme of things, no one is saying Buhari will win SE, but the governors without support for Atiku will play the spoiler. Get atleast 30% votes for Buhari in the SE is only what Buhari needs

Simple: The governors betrayed Atiku. They had agreement months before primaries that if the delegates they controlled voted for him/Atiku, he will pick Soludo as VP, proposed by the governors. Guess what? Atiku found out that the delegates they controlled mostly voted for Tambuwal, reneging on their agreement.

So Atiku winning with delegates not controlled by the governors, decided to work with those Igbo leaders responsible for those delegates voting for him. These leaders, along with SS leaders, adopted Peter Obi.

These governors are charlatans, they want to eat their cake and have it too. They know what they did but now forming betrayal!

Also, not connected with the agreement, Atiku did not want a VP controlled by special interest or outside forces that will cause problem between him and his VP in the future. He wants a man with his own mind, political clout and with no godfathers! A man just like himself with success in business, strong financial war chest and served in government at various levels. Also Atiku has known Obi for years, worked with him, even at banking level for his business.

This thread explained it all

Those chimpanzees we have as governors are in for the shock of their lives. This election will show them that power truly belongs to the people.

They did same thing 2 ngige in 2015 when he would have been Senate president. Now these ones can't use their brains if they have any

After all said and done, Atiku will lose the election.

Hopefully he'll be tried for corruption in the United States and jailed.
