Nnamdi Kanu, PDP And 2019 General Election by Omeokachie: 12:15pm On Oct 20, 2018
The social media has been in a frenzy following the sudden public reappearance of Nnamdi Kanu.

Interestingly and surprisingly too, the jubilation has been most feverish amongst APC supporters who have hitherto wished him dead!

I have taken time to review and analyze the situation rather than jump into any emotional fray, and chose not to react without having more facts. With some concrete facts now in the open, I said to share some thoughts with patriots in the struggle for the emancipation of Nigeria from the current misrule by the Buhari government.

First of all, I will ask everybody who believes that Buhari should go in 2019 to:

Stop, Think, and Listen!

One thing that the last 24hours has shown very clearly is the confusion in the camp of the APC since the emergence of Atiku as PDP candidate.
In warfare, you send spies (Recce team) to gather intel on your foe as this is necessary in determining if you will have a quick and swift war or if it would be a long drawn out campaign for which you need to regroup and restrategise.

The sudden reappearance of Nnamdi Kanu has done just that for opponents of this government, but some are allowing emotion to dim what presents a real chance to strike quick and get it over with in one single blow!

For APC to have reacted the way they did shows that they see the sudden reappearance of Nnamdi Kanu as relief from the hurricane Atiku that was almost consuming them even before official flagoff of campaigns for the 2019 elections. The APC are clearly in disarray and that is why they have gone all guns blazing trying to tarnish Atiku's image rather than sell the candidature of Buhari. Seeing that this was having no effect, Nnamdi Kanu is now a straw to hang on to!
This shows very simply that Atiku is having the upper hand and victory for him assured.

For them to start shouting "No referendum no election" shows that they have already conceded defeat and are now hoping that SE and SS both boycott the elections to give them some measure of hope.

Another strategy they seem to try to explore is a psychological one which tends to divide the ranks of the people by pitching Atiku against Nnamdi Kanu (like Joe Igbokwe have done) insinuating that Atiku has replaced Nnamdi Kanu as the leader of IPOB or Igbo.
Now that is elementary psychology, as not until Atiku makes such a pronouncement, you do not take the words of your opponent as fact to act on. The opponent will always want to play to their advantage while trying to catch you off guard.

Stay focused people. Action so far shows that you have the APC by the balls with their reaction since Atiku's emergence, and more so since Kanu's reappearance in the last 24hrs! Keep squeezing until they go on their knees, humiliated and chased away in 2019.
They can use soldiers, but you will use your votes.

This country needs to be restructured, something that Atiku has promised to do, while Buhari swore never to.

Stick to the plan people! Don't let the noise of the victim distract you from the task at hand. The sweetest victory for Nnamdi Kanu and all the people killed would be to send Buhari out of power and show him that the power of the people is mightier than the bullets of a tyrant. This you can only do through the ballot, while a more reasonable president will listen to your grievances and and ready for dialogue than roll out the tanks.

Never again will unarmed civilians be mowed down in churches and prayer grounds by bullets of the army meant to protect them.

Nnamdi Kanu will make a public statement tomorrow. Everybody should remain calm and understand that kicking Buhari out of power is a patriotic task that must be done.

Udo diri unu!
