Yorubas are not supporting Atiku. only Ipob youths are supporting him.

Hehe.
Be deceiving yourself.
I’m sure Atiku’s people would be happy that you are in that position— the position of self-delusion.

Wont you guys allow him win the 2019 election first before you start talking of 2023, if he does not want to step down you can realize your Igob Presidency with either APC or any other party, please they should allow him focus and win first.

Trying to strong arm him now will not be good, it is not about who produces the president but more of who provides the dividend of democracy.
Wrong! Atiku of his volition said he will do a SINGLE term which is not surprising cos an average will say and do anything to get votes but for the Igbos to believe that obvious lie is what is dumbfounding! like they actually believe that? hmmm

But it was not the Ibos he made that statement to, it was an open statement not directed at any tribe

Politicians and the love of power. As a politician, he could lie and accept to do a single term and like Buhari promised, when the time comes, he will change his mind for a second term. If he performs well as president, a second tenure shouldn’t be a problem.
Jonathan also said he was going for one term in 2011 but reneged on that promise in 2015 and was disgraced out.
This is one of the reasons I don't buy into the lies of Atikulators.

I don’t think it’s fair to generalise it as Yorubas.
Millions of Yorubas are supporting Atiku. Just check Twitter.
It is APC and Tinubu inspired publications. Not the entire Yoruba tribe.

They are only deceiving you on Twitter. I also prop Atikulate on Twitter, but my guy I get sense to let Buhari finish the remaining 4 years and leave it for a younger generation from the South in 2023 (doesn't matter the tribe) than for another Hausa/Fulani who will like to do 8 years and keep his old-aged cronies in power and we keep going on in a cycle.

Let me share another angle, if Atiku wins and recontest in 2023, opposition parties would be forced to present another old Hausa/Fulani candidate who would want another 8 years. That will mean that we are gullible indeed.

The crop of younger leaders from the South that will emerge in 2023 are mostly detribalised and goal getters. These are the politicians that will break the cycles. Although not perfect, PMB is laying a foundation that can be built on. Dont forget I said although he is not perfect.

It’s beyond “if Atiku or if PMB” wins. It’s the fight for the soul of Nigeria. Any reasonable person, educated and logical will tell you that the future of Nigeria is bleak, extremely bleak with PMB as President. Unless we want to deceive ourselves.

If we had an Obi with Buhari, or Tinubu with Buhari or NOI with Buhari, the future of Nigeria will be bleak if Nigeria, an extremely heterogenous country, is led by someone who is highly nepotistic, bigoted, analogue, feudalistic and insular as Buhari.

Unless we want to delude ourselves, I think we all know this.

You are too emotional. Politics isn't about emotions, but strategies, calculations.

Buhari is all that you said, which truly are his bad sides, but remove sentiments, he is doing well laying a foundation that can be built on and he only has less than 4 years.

It is too glaring that Atiku is an opportunist and ambitious and cunning and may not be different from Buhari considering the challenges facing this country. You may not agree with this if you are desperate to get Buhari out or you want a revenge of 2015. But this is the truth.

Let me make my point graphic:

In 2019: North Incumbent vs North Atiku (wins)
2023: North Atiku vs North new guy (wins)
2027: North New Guy vs North new guy 2 (wins)
2031: North new guy 2 vs North

As long as the North incumbent doesn't win, it will be suicidal for any opposition to present someone from the South.

Please THINK on this, leave emotions.

I wish I was emotional. But being “unemotional” is one huge accusation I’ve gotten as one of my weakness.

“He is doing well”? Where? How? Is that how mediocre our once mediocre standards are? You are funny.

I’m not a politician so I’m not here to discuss about political calculations. Perhaps you’ve mistaken my love for country and for Africa as love for politics. I’m not a politician.
