I Would Have Been Surprised If Atiku Had Won – Falana by ijustdey: 11:10pm On Mar 01, 2019
Human rights lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Mr Femi Falana, has said that he would have been surprised if the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) had won.

He said this during an interview on Hard Copy, a Channels Television programme which airs on Fridays and monitored by our correspondent.

He said that Atiku’s emergence has negative implications, adding that his chances of winning in court are “tough”.

He said: “I would have been surprised if Atiku had won. Atiku’s emergence has negative implications. He will have to defend many negative comments by Obasanjo.

“He is under investigation by the United States Government. He never came out to deny the representation that he will enrich his friends. Atiku was going to sell the NNPC to his friends.”

Asked if Atiku could win in court, Falana said: “Atiku’s chances in court are very tough.”

Atiku was never a better option. Pdp forced him on us .
They should have provided a candidate with a clean record but the party leaders were interested in ripping him of his money.

Kwakanso or Tambuwal stood a better chance but Atiku paid more money

I would have been more surprised. The problem is that PDP chieftains and supporters are simply too dumb for my understanding. That's why PDP will keep getting defeated going forward.

My comment on the election sometime last year...

olujastro:
While smart people are analysing real electoral data, others think it's by hijacking Nairaland frontpage as they've done in recent weeks, screaming Atikulate and Obimycin all over the place, and doing "like" and "share" for Atiku. When they lose as expected, they'll start screaming rigging or "zoo must fall".

The SS has always been the zone with gargantuan rigging as evident in the voters' turnout; especially in Rivers, AkwaIbom, Delta and Bayelsa. However, this time, no more federal backing from PDP to reel out about 70% voters turnout there (when others are below 50%), and some of the chief riggers have moved to the APC. With strict usage of card readers, the SS will be lucky to deliver 5million votes.

This shows that the real voting strength in terms of votes cast of the NW (APC's strongest hold) can comfortably take care of the SS and SE (PDP's strongest holds) .

The NE is still there chilling for the APC as another stronghold. While the split zones of the SW and NC (which I expect more voter apathy there in 2019) slightly favour APC more than PDP.

So tell me how Atikulooter will win without even including his huge corruption baggage. cheesy

Atiku says he is concerned with Borno and Yobe results. We dash him all of Buhari's vote there. We have told Inec chairman to add it to his votes

That was one reason the north snubbed him..
He never had a chance here.
Bribing and buying the presidential ticket was how he denied kwankwaso or tambuwa the chance to contest....
That was why Wike was mad hearing Atiku bribed his way into winning the primaries.

He is seen as a two faced personality who u can't trust by the North.

I'm also like that,it's not indecision but the fact that although buhari is incompetent he is still the best Nigerian leader as of now.I was always criticizing buhari in the presence of my ibo friends for his security lapses,Imagine their shock when I dusted off my pvc and voted buhari to neutralize at least one of their own votes. PDP should be kept well away from the treasury

I always tell people that Atiku never stood the chance to dethrone PMB, the PDP were only after his money and there are still not through with him they still want him to spend more by hiring lawyers (SANs) for a case he will never win
