Tinubu is more than likely to lose the election, from all reasonable indications. At a distant third. You heard it here first!!!

He has now further divided his South Western Votes which he was certain to get the major chunk of. YES he still winning his region but not with an overwhelming majority, more like 65%., Once Christian Churches and Clerics starts compelling their Congregation to Vote against him, a good amount of his own people will fall back, same as APC northern Christians.

Meanwhile the Muslim votes in the NW is split between him and the other 3 major Muslim contestants. North East is Behind Atiku, North Central is split in different Parts for the 4 candidates. While SE and SS are aggressively behind Obi.

Tinubu should have chosen a strong Christian like Dogara as vice and made sure strong muslims like Buhari, Ganduje and El Rufai, campaign aggressively for him. Oga Tinubu Sir, You made and doubled down on a Bad move!

Nobody listen to the advice of his enemies in a contest.

Tinubu is smarter than you all.

Eddygourdo:
Thank you Tinubu for not listening to the detractors. They were about to make you correct the gaffe and improve your chances of winning the elections. Now that you have submitted the form, it is the turn of Nigerians to teach you a bitter lesson at the polls.

But why the thing still dey pain you say your eternal enemy go definitely lose the coming election?

Jack500:
Tinubu is a moving train you either get in or get crush.

All the hypocrite acting as if they care, will you have voted Tinubu if he had presented a pope?

Osibanjo is a Christian, did you guys vote for him, didn't you chose Atiku a fulani man and Muslim over him? Useless people.

Tinubu/Shettima 2023, those not comfortable should vote their obituary candidate or hang themselves.

Radarada.

The truth is if Tinubu had chosen a christian, they wouldn't have voted him and they would have been analysing how he's definitely going to lose the North by now.

Tinubu is smarter than them all.

It is obvious you don't know politics! Which north east is behind Atiku? I can assure you that Tinubu will win Borno and Yobe in the north east with a very large margin.

Tinubu has already failed. Muslim \ Muslim ticket worked for Abiola because the south was desperate to transfer power from the north to the south to break the jinx of northern political rule.

Those who complain against Muslim-Muslim ticket are those who are still planning to vote for Tinubu and APC.

If not so, why the complain, when they can easily vote another candidate or party of their choice?

Escobat never cared about people and now won't be different. Very self centered individual.

Like I stated, if not for what is happening in the North, no one would bat eyes over Muslim Muslim ticket to begin with.


I believed Tinubu wanted to choose between El Rufai and Shettima which were the two options he was looking at.

El Rufai is very eloquent and I believe he would do his best for APC to win. But what's happening in his Kaduna state is something. Kaduna has become a mess because of bandits, terrorists, ethnic and religious crisis. Some people were already wailing when El Rufai name was mentioned as a vice president.

On Shettima, he's also eloquent. Of course there's this Boko haram tag because it happened in his state and when he asked for amnesty for them. Some people keep wailing over these. Meanwhile Boko haram already started long ago under Yaradua.

The insecurity in the country needs to tightened.


That being said, Tinubu Is a competent liberal leader hence people should be able to overlook the Muslim Muslim ticket of a thing.

The Muslim Muslim tag, isn't the issue but their questionable reputation that should frighten voters.
Imagine a drug baron for president and an alleged founding father of a terrorist organization for vice president.

ExplorerReturns:
Recipe for disaster. Tinubu will fail!

If he going to fail people won’t be up in arms, Nobody is talking about PDP’s decision to field Atiku a Northerner after 8 yrs of a northerner because people know he’s not going to win.

Islam lives on

butterfly777:
He will lose.

My people, if you are serious about your lives, don't just wait for the election to vote for Obi orany candidate of your choice.

Join the party and work for the person from there. They need help from there. Many things are decided at the party levels.

Take back naija from charlatans.

No be only Obi i got support. Na Obituary i go support. Abeg gettout

ariesbull:
Igbo told then the truth 8yrs ago

APC Christians called them wailers
The yoruba Christians s said they are sophisticated
They called igbo small dot and nobody spoke up


Now they have bluffed Christians in Nigeria, igbo, yoruba, Hausa and Niger Delta Christians and let see who will speak up

Always stand for the truth irrespective of the tribe... This is a lesson to you all Nigerians... Una think


Yet it I igbo that Is still still speaking up...

We are not only having Muslim to contest after 8yrs Muslim rule we are having Muslim Muslim ticket


Vote Obi for justice, equity and progress

OBI FOR JUSTICE!!!?...
i laugh in Mandarin.
As a governor for 9 years, he was constantly giving monthly allocations to churches at free will. As if no single Muslim in his state. No Muslim complained.
Tell us a single achievement he did to help a single Muslim for that 8 years.
No single Muslim in his cabinet.
Only a FOOL Muslim would vote this Obi a religious bigot.

Zico5:
You won't even hear any noise from the north except for few inconsequential politicians like Babachir Lawan and other feather weight politicians, leaving APC because of Muslim/Muslim ticket. Let the south east urchins continue to rant, it won't change anything. They are here just to divide Atiku votes in the south. North is already settled for Tinubu. As for south west, let me just say the rest is the case. Even if Adeleke win today in osun, it won't still change anything cos no sensible South west will leave his brother and vote Fulani again.

Nobody in the south west will vote for anyone who wants to sacrifice the unity of Nigeria over His personal ambition.
Hence we will meet at the polls. #DoYouHaveYourPvc

YorubaNiBaba:
fvck justice and equity, your Obidient can only become president of beerfraud land but here in Nigeria, the flat headed akpu munching gorilla can only dream of ruling this country, we will never allow him to rule over us....... BAT/SHET23 is a goal

HAHAHAHA!!!!!

All the people making noise about Muslim-muslim ticket are making it easy for Obi to lose the 2023 election.

Every candidate that wins presidential elections in Naija needs muslim votes to win. Obi inlcusive. So, when Obi supporters go on and on about APC and their muslim-muslim ticket...they send the subtle message to potential undecided Muslim voters that Obi and LP are a bigoted party that do not care about the Muslims, and drive them back to APC or even PDP.

I repeat...Obi cannot win without Muslim votes. CAN and all those who are screaming about APC muslim-muslim ticket are doing him a big disfavor.

Yes, I know, Muslims have said that anyone voting for Christians is a fake muslim (Shagari even said so in public once back in the 1980's when he was in power, and in the presence of his VP Ekwueme self)..but if you notice something about those Muslims pols who make such comments...either they are the incumbent, or they make such comments when in the opposition, and once they have a chance of winning, they become pan-Nigerians and tolerant of all religions (see Buhari for example).

Obi is at a disadvantage, and is the candidate of a party that has low chances of winning. The more we go on and on about Muslim-Muslim, the less his chances of winning. Obidients should be reaching out to Muslims, not alienating them. Talking trash about Tinubu and Shettima because of their religion, not because of their actual performance (which is not good....if their successors Fashola and Zulum were running, even people like me that hate APC might have beeen tempted to vote for the party...but wishes can't be horses)....is a nice way of telling potential muslim voters...who Obi needs, even if it is one quarter of them...that they don't matter. And that can backfire.


Trump was percieved as a racist. So, when running in 2016, he promptly presented himself as a champion of all Americans, blacks included, and committed to returning jobs to all Americans, especially blacks. Result...he won, with an increased black vote among other things. Obidients, don't let Obi be percieved as anti-Islam. It can come back to hit him badly on eleciton day.

Things fall apart

Toktee:
No okoro will die or want to die but believe me Tinubu will never win the election... This is not about igbo but Christianity as a whole.

I know most of you don't care as far as you see crumbs to satisfy your belly u are ok.

Wait and see God in action.

Don't bring Christianity into this your beerfraud Igbo thing

Tap0lane:
Death go plenty for Alaigbo over this news. Though I am a Christian but Tinubu de give me endless joy with his choice. My respect to the sensible igbos and Christian in the north I know without much explanation you know the reason why this difficult choice need to be.

Make no Igbo Ipob / PDP n Obi urchins quote me unless you want thunder to kill your entire household in addition to you unborn generation.

You b real MUMU and a coward for mentioning Thunder,you claim Christianity and yet dey spill trash.Get sense

I don’t get why there’s so much bitterness and I bickering over APCs Muslim-Muslim prez ticket, I thought you guys hate APC, if it was a Muslim-Christian situation would you vote BAT?

How did we get here?
Before the late 1980s, religion was not a defining factor in national politics. Alhaji Shehu Shagari, elected president in 1979, was a Fulani Muslim surrounded by Christians. His No 2, Dr Alex Ekwueme, was an Igbo Christian. The No 3 was Dr Joseph Wayas, a Christian from today’s Cross River state who was senate president. The No 4 was Chief Edwin Ume Ezeoke, a Christian from today’s Anambra state who was Speaker. All the service chiefs were Christians: Lt Gen Alani Akinrinade (army chief, later defence chief); Lt Gen Sanda Jallo (Army Chief); Vice Admiral Akin Aduwo (Naval Chief); and AVM John Yisa-Doko (Air Chief). The Inspector General of Police was Mr Sunday Adewusi.
In fact, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, the presidential candidate of the Unity Party of Nigeria (UPN) in 1979, fielded a Christian-Christian, Southerner-Southerner ticket: Chief Philip Umeadi, from today’s Anambra state, was his running mate. Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe, candidate of the Nigeria Peoples Party (NPP), also did a Christian-Christian ticket, pairing with Dr Ishaya Audu from Kaduna state. Although Shagari’s Muslim-Christian pairing won the election with 5.6 million votes, the Christian-Christian tickets of Awolowo and Azikiwe did not do badly, netting 4.9 million and 2.8 million respectively. Awo and Zik got a total of 7.7 million votes. That was the Nigeria I grew up in as a primary school kid.
Military governments were not sold to the religious thing either. When Gen Yakubu Gowon, a Northern Christian, was Head of State, Vice Admiral Joseph Edet Akinwale Wey, the Chief of Staff, Supreme Headquarters, was his second-in-comman. The Vice-Chairman of the Federal Executive Council was Awolowo, the Minister of Finance. Effectively, Gowon’s military and civilian deputies were both Christians. Religion was of no consequence.
Maj-Gen Muhammadu Buhari and Brigadier (later Maj-Gen) Babatunde Idiagbon — both Fulanis, both Muslims, both Northerners — were No 1 and No 2 in 1983-85 and I can’t remember any objections. That was what Nigeria used to be.
Something definitely went wrong thereafter as religious crises erupted under Gen Ibrahim Babangida. When Bashorun MKO Abiola, a Yoruba Muslim, wanted to pick his deputy for the June 12, 1993 presidential election, we had lost our innocence. The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) warned him not to nominate a Muslim, otherwise Christians would not vote for him. They gave him a list of Northern Christians to pick from: Dr Chris Abashiya, Dr Ishaya Audu, Mr Bala Takaya and Mr Paschal Bafyau. These were no political heavy hitters. Abiola achieved the North-South balance by picking Amb Babagana Kingibe, albeit a Northern Muslim. They won nine of the 16 northern states.
The cold calculations in Tinubu’s camp, I should guess, were in favour of a Muslim running mate. And I suppose that these might be their essential assumptions. One, a Muslim-Muslim ticket should not be a problem for the Muslim North where the bulk of the votes are. It should be a major counter-offer to an Atiku presidency since the president and vice-president would be Muslims. Two, it should also not be a problem for the South-West, apart from the cosmopolitan Lagos. Tinubu is the homeboy and religion is not yet a major political factor, although CAN and Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) are working overtime, along with fifth columnists, to poison Yorubaland with bitter bigotry.
Three, their calculation may be that those most likely to be vocally opposed to a Muslim-Muslim ticket are voters and commentators from the South-South, South-Eest and Christian North who do not vote for APC on a normal day. Even if Tinubu were a pastor, APC would still be a no-no for many voters in these constituencies.

Shettima speaks on Tinubu’s plan to Islamize Nigeria

https://wonder9ja.com/2022/07/16/shettima-speaks-on-tinubus-plan-to-islamize-nigeria/

jamace:
Tinubu being medically unfit is a problem for Nigeria. Shetima Kashim being a boko haram sympathiser and financier is a bigger problem for Nigeria. The biggest problem for Nigeria are those muslims living in IDP camps courtesy of Kashim Shetima who will still vote for Kashim Shetima based on religious sentiments.

The axe continues to cut down the trees but the trees are still supporting the axe because they believe that it is one of them.

Join the rescue team. Peter Obi is the man on rescue mission.

For Anambra of for Enugun??
U r not serious

If there is no Obi in this race, victory is sure for Tinubu but Obi will divide his vote in the south west.

Nigerians are a wonder

Even if fuel is #1000 and boko haram takes over half of Nigeria, they don't mind so long as one contesting is from their region or religion.



No wonder God De look us so
