I swear, Atiku just struck himself on the foot grin grin. Instead of him to choose a more vibrant Wike, a rugged politican capable of pulling great crowd in the South, he went for a no body... who knows Okowa beyond Delta state? The little vote he may be banking on in the South East and South South is no longer feasible.
We’re waiting for Tinubu to make his own mistake also which we all know he’s likely to go for Muslim-Musilm candidates in the person Ganduje grin with the way things are currently in this country, no right thinking youth will vote for old cargos grin neither will they get a single vote in SE & SS. North Central is off target for them grin
Peter Obi should be wise and go for Kwakwaso. Beyond him, I don’t see any candidate capable of pulling voters in the north. Peter Obi has already conquered SE and SS. Middle belt falls in line with pockets of South West.
Not true...South South votes are split.

I can see everything turning around for Obi's good if only he plays his card well
On the other hand,ATIKU is a failure in upcoming election while Tinubu will share money and this time money won't solve it.Obi all the way.....

I am sure you are disappointed. You wanted Wike because he is unsellable in the SE, North and SW.

Atiku stands a better chance than the sick thief.
Tinubu is a money maker, a resourceful man... kettle calling pot black.

Lol.... The kind of decision atiku and Tinubu are making as regards picking their running mate will cost them the post for presidency next year.....

Let's just watch how things will unfold, if for any reason Tinubu sticks to masari or Ganduje or any Muslim as his running mate it will be game over for him too...

Peter obi needs to be strategic and strike a broker with kwankwaso........


He needs to be Kwakwanso’s deputy

Core northerners won’t vote him as president
Let him be Vice now after 8 years then he can now constest to be president

Wike and Makinde would be more confused with this development.

Udom or Diri would have been better

Anyways congrats to Okowa.

Which Diri? That "Thanksgiving governor" who does nothing meaningful but conducts Thanksgiving services every Sunday? That dude is a failure pro max.

Do you think at all? Which North Central? Do you know Yorubas dominate Kwara by 90% Do you know Yorubas are in Kogi? The other Kogi tribes are more related with the West too.

Is it Benue that Peter Obi want to win or Abuja that's already for Atiku?

Peter Obi may have chance in Nassarawa. That's all he can get.

I'm from the middle belt, so stop this rubbish.

SE have indirectly schemed themselves out from the 2 major political party in Nigeria.

Should Obi loss, the region would have to be in political orphanage home for quite some time

SE always behaves childish and emotional when it comes to national politics. You are right by your submission. They have willingly schemed themselves out of reckoning. The idiotic Obi does not even know the damage he has done to SE in the incoming political dispensation. He allowed his emotions to get the better of him by resigning from PDP, and to make it worse, joined a party without any capacity to win election.

Ifeanyi Okowa is Anioma Igbo man and a hard working governor

He performed excellently well for his people as governor and will do well as the number 2 citizen of federal republic of Nigeria if PDP wins
Oga dont us confuse here. Ifeanyi Okowa is not an igbo man. He is deltan. Deltans even when they are bearing igbo names, even with igbo as their mother tongue do not consider themselves as igbo. They will rather be associated with yorubas. But when they want to manipulate the SE in politics, they will go for the igbo bearing delta indigenes.

Okowa is too slow to my liking. I am still trying to measure his level of appeal to other groups in the South.
Wike will kill Atiku and become president.

Wike would not submit to Atiku's authority, he'll probably challenge and undermine his patron, and badmouth anyone who disagrees with him. He's also very likely to assassinate Atiku to gain the office of President, given his uncouth, dangerous, ambitious, desperate, and fiery disposition.

He's a bull in a china shop with absolutely no regard for anyone nor restraint.

You are dumb and have no logical reasoning faculty.

There is no APC supporter that will wish for Wike as VP to Atiku. Wike is fearless, rugged, rude and would have given APC a tough time in the campaigns.

Okowa is not a bad guy but the fact that he went against the accord of the southern governors by going to back a northern candidate in the primaries will haunt him. You can take that to the bank.
What stupid accord!!! The same accord that was a smokescreen by the SW to blackmail the other southern regions to support them after betraying GEJ in 2015

Okowa is an Igbo man, so at least Igbos are represented in two parties. Labour and PDP

Yorubas are represented in one party.

PDP is fraudulent as a party. What's the essence of screen committee and nomination committee? They put those committees together to drain fund from Wike and Co.

...and serves them right. PDP has expired. Atiku can never win Tinubu.

Obi should have remained loyal to Atiku. I am still at a loss on how he thinks he would win. He seems to be over estimating himself and his Popularity. Outside the SE, Obi does not command any mass following. His supporters are busy insulting every body, thinking that by being vocal online, he would get the vote. The man made the worse political mistake of his life.

Okowa is not a good choice for PDP. He’s not a governor with popularity and acceptability outside Delta state. In terms of performance, he has not done much. Most Delta people see him as a tribalist who concentrated more projects in his home town and neglected the other parts of the state.

He can’t deliver SS votes to PDP the same way a Wike would have done. The fact that he betrayed the southern governors forum agreement will also work against him. Overall, this is good for APC.
