Now that the major players in the political scene in Nigeria have known their Presidential candidates, the battle is now set for who occupies the number one seat in the land between Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi.

Not ruling out the chances of other presidential candidates of other political parties, these three are seen as the frontrunners for the top seat in Nigeria for the upcoming 2023 general election.

The credibility of these men can’t be questioned having been in the public office for over a decade except for Obi who is a two term governor in Anambra.

The fact remains that it is a game of number. Who will get the highest number of votes come 2023?

By this time next year, Nigeria will have another President in power. It won’t be a surprise if one of them emerge the winner of the election.

Peter Obi gaining a lot of followers on social media

The social media has been no doubt a huge tool in the Nigeria space, especially join political and entertainment matters.

This could be the reason Peter Obi has been putting this to a good use. His support base has risen in matter of days after leaving the Peoples Democratic Party for the Labour Party.

“Whenever I hear of NO STRUCTURE, my answer to it is simple; the 100 million Nigerians that live in poverty will be the structure. The 35 million Nigerians who don’t know where their next meal will come from will be the structure,” Peter Obi responded in one of his tweets.

But the questions many needs to answer is that will that result into votes come next year? The obvious answer is no.

The social media campaign is good so far it is not of hate or some shrewd propaganda to smear the image of your opponent.

But can Peter Obi who against all odds emerged governor in Anambra, breaking the stronghold of the PD in the state do it again as a President? Time will tell.

Obi is said to have no structure to gather enough votes. But the former Anambra governor has claimed that his structure are those that have been disappointed by government in the past alongside the youths.

Can Tinubu do the job?
Tinubu has the needed resources but his barrier will be his ill health should he emerge the President.

There have been videos on the internet that shows that this would pose a huge challenge for him.

For me, Prof Yemi Osibanjo would have been the best candidate for the APC. He would have equally performed excellently well. But the cabal understands the frailty of Tinubu's health. They miscalculated him to die in office, thereby paving way to the northern Vice Presidential candidate. One of the hardest hurdle is now the Vice President who is supposed to be a Northern Christian. But the North will never allow a Northern Christian to deputise a Southerner who they don't regard as true Muslims.
Also the influence of the Endsars cannot be undermined.
It was only Peter Obi that condemned the Lekki Tollgate killing of the youths among the political class. Obi is meant to carry the day. Take it or leave it. If you know you know.

All we want is competent leader who will work to develop the country
