The North? A Muslim/Muslim ticket will struggle to get 40% in the North Central and won't have up to 65% in the North West and North East. And will fail woefully in the South.

You will be shocked. All this amala analysis.

I don't want to argue with you the only three state a Christian can win in the north is benue ,taraba and Jos and mind you Moslem are very big there , people said it cant work in kaduna which is one of the most religious divided state with Jos in the north coming down to south count south west out of your religious stuff , south South will give 80 percent to PDP , south east will give 90 percent but unfortunately they vote that will come out of South East in 2023 election May not be up to 500k because of this ipob stuff it will definitely look like amambra results

Atiku is power drunk and desperate like the cocaine sniffer of the waste alias west. But one reason why I like him is because he understands that power needs to shift to the eastern corridor. A lot of people don't know these but they are three corridors in Nigeria; western corridor, Middle corridor and Eastern corridor. The eastern corridor has not tasted power for long

[quote author=Mooh247 post=111081712] cool




You didn't pick him as a Vice President in the Party he formed even after agreeing to his terms, you picked an Ibo man, yet Tinubu stood by you and spent his money on you and your Ibo Vice without sentiment

Again in 2014, Buhari agreed to a Tinubu Vice Presidency to get Tinubu's financial and political support, Buhari picked Pastor Osinbajo instead, yet Tinubu spent his money inside Bullion. Van to make them President and Vice twice, without hate, envy or sentiment

When they need help they know Tinubu's house, give them what they want and they turn motivational speaker giving us lecture on ethnicity and religion



This your analysis is a beer parlour discussion you probably heard at your local joints.
Listen to the truth from an insider an ask Tinubu if it's false.
Listen: Neither Buhari nor Tinubu originally chose Osibanjo. The original plan was Fashola being the running mate or vice President to Buhari, meeting was held at Fashola's residence between Buhari , Tinubu, Fashola and few party members ( if you like I give you date and time), but Fashola declined that he will not partook in a Muslim/Muslim Presidential ticket for a country such as Nigeria that is divided along religious line and sentiments. It was at his residence that decision was made to pick Osibanjo as Buhari's running mate. So Originally Prof. Osibanjo wasn't in the plan.
However, to compensate Fashola a juicy ministerial post was suggested if they eventually win the Presidential election. So that's why you see him as minister of Power. shocked shocked. This is the true story from one of the people that was in the meeting on that day. Any other gist is false .

I expected you as an intelligent person to understand what/why Atiku is talking like that.
He is only saying this, for the igbos to drop their agitation and allow him get the PDP ticket.Forget the Tinubu story.
One naive person was even saying Tinubu gave him a platform and spent his(Tinubu's) money for Atiku.That folk is either too young to know what transpired in 2007 or is insinuating that Tinubu is stupid.
iReddington:
Atiku should continue his bromance with the Igbos.
Asiwaju has moved further and even now has a better chance to be the President than Atiku with his preference for Igbo.
Chaii...Igbos na handicap for National Politics oo. No level at all.

Why did he not run as Vice and let an Igbo man run as President if he truly believes in the region
Two bottles of Heineken for you...you are one of the few with sense here....The only reason he didn't pick Tinubu is because of the way Nigeria is structured. Tribe and religion has done us no good. Of Atiku or Buhari were Christians they would not think twice before picking Tinubu as running mates.

If only Nigeria can work like Lagos state we won't worry about a muslim/muslim or a Christian/Christian political office sloth. Or even an Hausa/Hausa or Igbo/Igbo combo.

What I have just written is the gospel truth. Baba Akande is a politician that is playing politics with his book. I believe you are shock with my revelation. Even if one of the caucus members that was at that meeting reads my write up, he will be shocked how some people got to know what transpired within on that Faithful Sunday evening ����. When Fashola refused the Muslim/Muslim ticket.

You can see Tinubu has been pushing this Muslim/Muslim ticket for a long time now

And it will be his greatest undoing. He doesn't know that 1993 is not 2023. That's 30 yrs ago, and a lot has changed.

I don't even want him as our president not bcoz of competence, he's competent after all Buhari is still there in spite of his many incompetency. He'll be 70 yrs next week. I beg, who did we offend?

YEAH….the same way you stood by Buhari when he picked Chief Edwin Ume-Ezeoke as running mate in 2007 and he lost.. As they say, the one that passes excreta easily forgets but he that has to carry the sh!t never does. Atiku will still lose anyway, in spite of your promised support…same way he lost with Obi in 2019….just a serial loser!!
