I am observing a worrying trend in both regions in respect of the upcoming presidential elections. Why aren't we seeing solidarity rallies in support of Atiku/Obi in both the SE/SS, as we have been seeing in the North and SW for Buhari/Osinbajo? I feel the PDP SE governors and political establishment are not doing enough nor showing enough enthusiasm towards the ATikuObi ticket and this I find very worrying. What is going on out there? 5 Likes |

The difference is joblessness. Ss and se are busy with making cash and living well, we'll come out and vote on election day. Let the jobless be screaming sai barber upandan until election day. Better to strike on the D day. 24 Likes 6 Shares |

Those who know a ship is sinking DON'T cling to it. SE was not consulted before picking OBI! OBI doesn't represent SS nor do they favour him. VOTE BUHARI for continuity 20 Likes 2 Shares |

WisdomFlakes: Those in SE/SS who would troop out for Atiku can already see the handwriting on the wall. When you promise to sell NNPC to private investors you threaten the livelihood of the nation. When private owners take over all guarantees of security and commitments will be open to review and renegotiation. The deals will be favorable to the private investors, not Delta....which means more militancy in SS. The Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces will be forced to intervene and protect private holdings he sold. He must meet force with force. This will open SS for its own insurgency and generate need for arms race - Defense-Industry. If SS turn to a hot bed, SE will be impacted. Moreover, how do you restructure Nigeria if you plan on selling NNPC? There is conflict of interest. Atiku is so HYPER-DESPERATE for power that he uncontrollably spills out what ought to remain close to his chest.  16 Likes 2 Shares |

DrGoodman: Really? But the same SE people held frenzied rallies in support of Nnamdi Kanu in the heydays of his agitation for Biafra, are you saying those people were all jobless? Come on. A lot of traders were willing to down their tools to show solidarity for Nnamdi Kanu simply because they believed in his vision and agitation. Are you saying that Igbos/SE don't find Peter Obi's candidacy inspiring enough to atleast organize solidarity rallies in support of his ambition? You lots have more to gain if AtikuObi wins the presidency. Your simplistic rationalization doesn't make sense. 9 Likes 1 Share |

WisdomFlakes: Have you any record of South east doing political rally before? They don't do rally, they only attend your rally if you bring it to them. Has PDP held any rally in the south east? |

soulpeppersoup: All these excuses are not making sense to me. I'm tilting towards Atiku candidacy. But something is just not right with that region's lackluster support, except maybe online. We just have to objectively admit that the level of mobilization for AtikuObi even in Obi's Anambra state is mediocre at best. Igbos are holding roadshows in Peckham for Atiku, but can't take the initiative to organize a solidarity rally for him in Anambra at Nnewi township stadium? Talk something else abeg. 3 Likes |

WisdomFlakes:Those rallies you talk about need to be organised by someone, and it usually cost money. Also, PDP is typically in the business of doing colourful rallies where people are paid, given bright coloured uniforms and different groups attend with unique attires; those PDP rallies cost a huge amount.. But this time, cashflow is the problem, PDP no longer has the key to the CBN vaults. Another point to note is that people in the south (unlike northerners) always need some encouragement (money or gifts) before they leave their businesses to come witness politicians spewing trash. PDP doesnt have the financial war chest for that now, so they're waiting for the weeks closer to the election to organise their rally. 3 Likes |

WisdomFlakes: Most Igbos and other tribes in the SE/SS don't care about the politics of Nigeria, at least at the presidential level anyway. What can really inspire any right thinking person about Buhari and Atiku? Both men have operated at the presidential level of government and failed woefully. Atiku was a hopeless vice president with a string of corruption allegation against him and Buhari has proved a clueless tribal bigot. Nobody in the SS/SE is going to hold any solidarity for Buhari or Atiku as both men represent failure. Buhari may get solidarity rallies in the North because all they care about up there is being in power At least Nnamdi Kanu offered freedom, change, a new begining and hope. These are things is that matter to the SS/SE, not who will become the next president of a failed "one Nigeria" That's why people will troop out in solidarity with Kanu but nobody will waste time with Atiku/Obi. 5 Likes 1 Share |

I am from the SS and my PVC and vote is for PDP so why come to me again and ask me to vote for you (PDP ) when you should be investing your time and resource elsewhere to grow your voting chances?

WisdomFlakes: Bros calm down, Atiku has not done any rally in the South East this far. Besides how many Igbos do you see in Political rallies?. How many rallies do you see the governors conducting? Talking about Obi, he is not a man of frivolities. It beats me how some people think rallies can change the mindset of people or intentions of people to vote a candidate. Come to Kaduna South, there are no PDP rallies, no noise, people are just going about their duties, while patiently waiting to cast their votes against the APC. In some parts its not about rallies. People know exactly who ruined our economy, who has show preference fpr cattles ovwr their lives and so on. No be by rally. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

livelymatilda22: The last time I checked PDP is still campaigning in the north and SW which is very much ok and a good strategy. I only gave my opinion which does not cancel the fact that PDP will still do the needful in the SE and SS when the time comes - it's a process. APC can do what ever they want. IT'S IN THERE RIGHT. |
