ayzTIGER:
PDP's ticket was micro zoned to South West. El Rufai said it. Dont deny it

TonyeBarcanista:

You just want to say something sha... It is open secret that Ekweme's ambition in 1999 was stalled by the need to placate the SW.

emperor863:


Your list of possible candidates shows that the PDP is bereft of any candidate that can win a national election in Nigeria.

As things stand now in Nigeria, if PDP presents any of the three names you listed, it is a clear walk over for the APC.

Kestolove:
next president must come from north...period. we own d country nd we decide who rule Nigeria...after we rule for 16yrs straight we give it to Yoruba for 8yrs den south south for 8yrs den we north will rule for another 16yrs....south east we never rule Nigeria. ..

NoFucksToGive:
It's time they should give the ibos it's their turn to be fair

Echoban:


Which one is to Igbo again? Are will now doing ethnic stuff here? Or have u heard of microZoning ever since ni?? Fulani have been ruling North zone since despite their few number and heaven didn't fall...

It's only reasonable to say North, South....

Afterall we have NE, NW, NC who also be laying claim,..infact NC hasn't rules before being a major Geopolitical zone..
If SE want Presidency let them collaborate with their neighbors, not to be threatening everybody in Nigeria themn election come their clamoring for Microzoniing.

eldoradoxx:
If PDP zoned its presidential ticket to the North in 2019 (but lost for obvious reasons to Gen Buhari), it would be foolhardy for the party to zone the ticket to North again as if zoning is a waiting game. If Buhari has used 8 years of the North, then a Southern candidate with be the only person that will deliver victory to it, even APC will loose woefully if they zone presidency again to the North after 8 years of Buhari. APC bigwigs like Tinubu and his boys the Governors and Ministers etc may leave the party in droves like they left AD and set up another party thereby weakening APC and making it very vulnerable for PDP to defeat what is APC without the South West. The best option for 2023 presidential election is for PDP to zone it to South East or South South for instance Peter Obi or Wike, let APC zone their ticket to South West ; Tinubu( he is too old though), Osibanjo or Fashola. Let the North decide which party they prefer.

Stop spreading falsehood. PDP never zoned its ticket to south west in 1999. The ticket was zoned to the south and all interested southerners like Obasanjo from south west, Alex Ekwueme from south east and Graham Douglas from south south contested for the ticket and Obasanjo won.

In 2003, the ticket was thrown open and Obasanjo and Ekwueme again contested for the ticket. It was a very keen contest despite the fact that Obasanjo was the incumbent president. Even after the result was announced, Alex Ekwueme refused to concede defeat and congratulate the winner. Instead, he called the PDP primary election a charade on national television.

StJasper:


Bros, it is glaring you don't know what you are saying, or that you were misinformed.

*1999 presidential ticket was zoned to the Southwest by all the political parties in order to compensate the Yorubas for the 1993 adventure*

Those who contested against Obj in 1999 did so because they felt they had what it takes to scuttle the general public's decision.

rickyrex:
if only you understood that bracket ( southwest most preferred) you won't be wasting time typing. He said it was zoned to the South but southwest was the must preferred

The trio of Governor Nyesom Wike, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa and Chief Ayim Pius Ayim have what it takes to win the Presidency.

kcnwaigbo:

In the same way the SW should stop blackmailing the North not to contest

seunmsg:


At least, we are getting somewhere. In addition, I’m in support of your advocacy for the ticket of PDP to be zoned to the south. Indeed, it would be a great injustice and a slap on all southerners if the ticket is zoned to the North. Southerners like Wike, Okowa, Peter Obi and Ekweremadu are more qualified to be president than Atiku, Tambuwal, Saraki and Bala Mohammed. They should all put up a fight on behalf of the south.

If you had taken your time to read my back and forth with the OP on the first page of the thread, you would have seen how I convinced him to edit his initial post. Learn to read and understand before jumping to comment.

The next should also be thrown open too!

It will be very interesting!

These people u mentioned are not known by average Nigerian. The only Southern candidates that one can sell across the Nation and are undoubtedly popular in the nooks and crannies of Nigeria considerably North are Tinubu, Osinbajo, Fashola and Amaechi. All other candidates will get it hard to be marketed!
