So to the best of your knowledge, Competence is exclusive to section of people.
By 2027 if PDP present a xtain xtain ticket citing competence will northerners accept, how about what is good for the goose is good for the gander and isnt it funny that this so called Competence is always targeted at favouring the North muslims all the time.
Shouting you are a xtain means nothing because i know many xtains that don't even believe in church or own a bible.
Just yesteday, two pope were kidnapped again by bandit in kaduna ... mosques don't even have gatemn buh they are the safest places in Nigeria, how come imams never get kidnapped. APC need to stop abusing that word Competence

Dchampion65:
It is as if they know Tinubu/Shettima will win.
Why the protest?
They are other parties with Muslim-christian or christian-muslim ticket. Every one has a choice.

Secondly, if Muslim-muslim is the game changer for APC, why forcing them to do otherwise. Who is afraid here?

Thirdly it is a dangerous terrain to choose our leader on religion basis. Those we chose so far on religion basis, what is their performance?

Daddyyin:

It shows that majority believe Tinubu is the next Nigeria president. Christians have nothing to worry about. Tinubu is not an extremist

einsteine:


If PDP presents a Christian-Christian ticket, the north will not protest. They will simply not vote PDP. Awolowo and Azikwe both used Christian-Christian tickets and they both secured more votes than Aminu Kano who presented a geographically and religiously "balanced" ticket. In Awolowo's case, it was southern-southern and he lost by a mere 700k votes to Shagari.

Interesting, those ones are representatives of their pockets and ipod, not Christians. i am a Christian and i will take competence over religion at any time 't'. Many of them will apply to Dangote refinery whose head is a muslim, they will fly Emirates owned and piloted by muslims. But they want to be sentimental in choosing leaders.
How many so called pastor and reverend. bishop bosses are as wicked as Lucifer to their staffs? So many so called Christian/Pastor governors and proprietors owing salaries, and oppressing their subordinates.

Point is good head and government has very little to do with religion. i will rather have the sheikh of Dubai rule me than some smooth criminal carried on ipobic wings.

Styx01:
Get your PVCs and stop your senseless protests.

febble:
why go protest, when there are other candidates with Christian n muslim ticket, why not vote them in

kayperry:




LOL, did you even think before you replied, Do you even know why Tinubu is in this muslim muslim heat is because North won't vote for a Northern xtain because they consider them infidels.
Do you know North find a SW muslim like Tinubu unworthy to represent the muslim section
When you put all that together you think those demented northerners will vote a Xtain/xtain ticket LMAO ! did you think at all.
Funnily people shouting 1979 were not even born at that time, with the rate nigeria is going we can't even compare Nigeria of 2015 to Nigeria of 2023, becos the division gets wider every year and someone is citing 1979 ... how many of una great grandfathers were kidnapped or gruesomely murdered by people shouting allahkubhar in 1979 or 1993 that have become reference of interest

God1000:
Good, they should block all roads leading to Aso rock

TOPCRUISE:
Why the protest. Very unnecessary. If you don't like the decision vote for another party. We are in a democracy

Empiree:
it is clear that Christians are very problematic for Nigeria. They can easily pick other party to vote for our create their own Christian party

TOPCRUISE:
You are very wrong. I am advocating for an absolute democratic principle which must be followed and not based on religious lines

einsteine:



I didn't say they will vote.

I said they won't protest.

You are the one not reading. The protests here are useless. If you don't like the APC's choice, there are plenty of alternatives.

If you think it's a Christian vice president that will stop the problem you are talking about, then you are very naive.

kayperry:




By defeatable candidate you mean a north xtain abi, .. so you feel its right for Nigerians to take dictations from a sub-section of a region in the modern day democracy.
Nigeria belongs to all why should a sub section be dictating who will be in aso rock, be senate president and head all security agencies .. IF it is not about religion why must Nigeria Politics alway be favourable to the Muslims/Jihadist.

walozanga:
Do it with your PVC it's that simple

BeigJawnson:


Stop been a bigot and a tribalic maggot here... Been a good person is not all about religion, if you talk of bad pastors and bad bishops, are you trying to tell us here on nairaland that there ain't bad Muslims too? Those who burnt Deborah to death are what? Christains or Muslims? Those killings in tha up north, are tha killers Muslims or Christians?
