Serious you say? Okay na. Calling Oyigbo Obigbo is serious to you? Okowa that didn't coukd be compared to Okezie is now a big weight in Delta politics? Seriake Dickson wey no fit win Bayelsa, Donald Duke and Wike na 5 and 6.
Okowa is the biggest weight in Delta politics by all standards.
And when did noisemaking become the hallmark of a a powerful politician?

Honestly, I like Wike, probably more than you. But for a winning team, I prefer Okowa with Atiku,

How obi can make it the north
Peter Obi is a good man, one of the best presidential materials. But the hard truth is, no South Easterner can win a presidential election in Nigeria without the support of Northern Nigeria. This is not a curse, it is a statistical fact. If the majority of the good Igbos out there and Peter Obi's campaign team wants him to win the election, lets them do the following, it is not going to be a rocket science: ��

1. Translate All Peter Obi's speeches into the north's two major indigenous languages; Hausa and Fulfulde .

2. Buy Radio airtime in major Radio stations in the North where Peter's translated speeches, interviews and his campaign menifestos will be played on a daily or weekly basis.

3. BBC Hausa and VOA Hausa are very vital. Get in touch with them to be granting regular interviews with powerful influential northerners to be appointed as Peter Obi's campaign Directors in the north. Engage other International radio stations such as Radio Deutch Welle (DW) and Radio Beijing with considerable number of Hausa and Fulfulde listenership.

4. Identify and engage popular Northern Nigeria Social Media influencers and bloggers like Northern Hibiscus, Hausa-Fulani, Kano Online, etc.

5. Create physical presence through liason offices in key Northern cities. These offices should be functional and be effectively engaging grassroot political formations from wards, to LGAs and states levels to propagate the message of a new Nigeria through Peter Obi.

6. A powerful Northern Nigerian Vice President should be selected from Kano, Kaduna or Katsina - the super 3 Ks in terms of number of eligible voters.

7. Create a Shadow Cabinet with Shadow Ministers..
A Shadow cabinet doesn't have executive power since they are only executive members of government in waiting. Distribute key Shadow Ministries to the 3 Ks. This will create a deep effect in the political conversation in the North. The Shadow Ministers will operate just like normal Ministers, they should be given official cars and their job will include to criticize the original Ministers in the current administration - offering a better alternative to the unsolved problems of the current cabinet. Shadow cabinets are powerful opposition tools. This alone could place Labour Party as the main opposition party displacing PDP which is almost on its way to the grave.

8. The North is Nigeria's most politically conscious region. We don't vote money, we vote interest. Protect Northern interest in Nigeria while ensuring a balance in the South.

9. Supporters of Peter Obi MUST TRY as much as possible to avoid getting into Social Media wars and confrontations with Northern Nigerians. Stop the subs.... Northerners are your partner in constructing the new Nigeria. I've always maintained that the North is not in enmity with the South. Some evil politicians created a fake division. Peter Obi must expose that division and seek to be a unifier. Supporters of Peter Obi must have at least 10 or more influential Northerners who are partners in the rescue Nigeria project.

10. Avoid religious misunderstandings. Respect each other's religious opinions. Religion should never be part of politics. It was some evil politicians that brings in religion into Nigeria politics for their personal selfish interests.

11. Protect northerners and their businesses in the south and vice versa. Extend friendly hands to make the south, especially SE a safe haven for northerners.

As a Northerner who believed in justice, equity and fairness, and who is well informed about the good intentions of Mr Peter Obi, I'm convinced that when given the opportunity and with the right and selfless people in his government, we will see the birth of the new Nigeria we are all dreaming of. Let's give South East this opportunity, I will volunteer to be part of Peter Obi's team in the north.

Peter Obi is smart, focused and one of the best presidential candidates. But would his campaign team and kinsmen agrees to and implement the above quick wins campaign strategies I outlined? Let's gets this message across many platforms until Peter Obi and his campaign team come across it!!!!
This is what we have been telling them but they can never listen to you, instead they abuse you how they like show you the hatred they have toward you.I like your options but is too late.

I will just answer you with a question : how many times have you heard that Fulani killer herdsmen are butchering people in River state? Or are you claiming ignorance of the fact that these Fulani killer herdsmen are not on Islamic mission?

I do not believe that the Fulani bandits are on an Islamic mission because if that were to be so they wouldn't be killing their fellow Muslims in Katsina and other states. Therefore, it is safe to assume that they have other motives.

Atiku/Wike ticket is a total failure. If Atiku want to win this time, he should per up with okowa or any other influential person from the SS or the SE. Wike is too rude. He can't even win river state this time around.

Tinubu-Dogara is already trending

While Atiku-Wike is already trending.

The choice of Dogara or any Christian will make Tinubu lose northern votes. If he dares choose a Muslim, the south is gone.

Now, the choice of Wike will further make the Atiku ticket unpopular in both the north and south.

No Igbo man will vote Atiku with Wike as running mate after Obigbo massacre and telling the world he’s not Igbo.

Okowa will work against them in Delta.

After breaking Obaseki’s neck in Edo PDP, Obaseki will work against an Atiku/Wike ticket.

After losing out on both the presidency and vice presidency, Udom Emmanuel will not be enthusiastic to campaign for them in Akwa Ibom.

Donald Duke and Liyel Imoke don’t like Wike in Cross River.

Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa and Wike no dey waka same road.

I do not think the Yorubas will be so enthusiastic to vote Wike either.

So where will Wike get the southern votes for Atiku?

Well sha, everything is working out for the good of Peter Obi.

You are very correct.

On paper Obi should carry south east which APC and PDP has factored in their choice of running mates.

In politics they say there is permanent friends or enemies but permanent interests. Our politicians would shift grounds as many times even parties just for their selfish interests. If their interests get served even Amaechi and Wike would work together.

The Nigerian electorate are majorly at the grassroots, usually under associations, family head, religious groups. Once these groups are blessed with 'stomach infrastructures' they share to their members and direct their voting pattern.

The few independents ones don't either have PVC, can't stress themselves or just online only.

Obi would have stood a better chance if he had got the South East and South South support for the presidential ticket.

I hope and pray he wins.

Just like football, politics is not a mathematics. Two of them are games and swings anyhow anytime so there isn't any static indices to indicate who the odd may favor. Both parties Presidential - their vices flagbearers only have to come with a strong strategy to win the election. Unfortunately for APC they have more work to do because NOTHING (economy, security, education etc) is working under their administration.

Peter Obi will sweep the entire Southeast. Or do you argue that?

He will get over 30% of votes or more in all of Southsouth states. Maybe except Rivers if Wike gets the ticket.

He will score about 40% of votes in Lagos, about 20% in Ogun, Oyo and Ondo.

Likely true.

Not true.


Also not true.

He has his Guber Candidate, and the State is a PDP State. He can't do much knowing give or take, he will be well-compensated; that is if he still doesn't emerge.

Obaseki is likely heading to LP. Even with Oshio as Governor, PDP won the State. It won't change now, though Obaseki will likely reduce their votes.

He stood a chance with none, APC will likely not have a Guber Candidate, likely no Senator in one of the Zones, and not very strong Candidates on their ballot. It's a clean sweep there for the PDP.


Since Ayade defected, Cross-River PDP have been living on Rivers money. Wike controls the Party 99% there.

He is anti-Wike & pro-Atiku, he doesn't have a choice because he will be on the ballot on same day. 2 out of the three zones are fully PDP , nothing will change there.

Will Okowa make them vote Atiku?
