DrGoodman:
Too many children here

Obiano and Obi his mentor are on the same page on everything. Anambra ppl are educated and will vote Obi to the last man. All Igbos too. Stop listening to nonsense news.

Yyeske:
I have same feeling here too, the OP was balanced in his analysis but I think the real battlegrounds would be Benue, Plateau and Taraba states in the north, the remaining 16 states and FCT would go for Buhari.
For the south, the SW and Edo are going for Buhari, the rest of the SS and SE will go for Atiku.
There could be some surprises in Anambra, Delta, Imo and Akwa Ibom though because PDP could still win but the margin between it and APC will be low.

Corrinthians:
In the next five days, be prepared to hear and see the most audacious lies and propaganda from the cameroonian refugees. This is just the beginning.

Buhari will fell like palm tree in lagos

tiredoflife:
Atiku doesn't have to win Lagos
He only needs to win the required votes by law
That's what we will give him
We will make sure of that
That will help him with the other required votes
So don't drink sniper yet
We the non afonjas are here in Lagos
We will do the needful
It won't be like last time that the whole presidential votes of amuwo odofin was cancelled
We will give atiku the required votes
We are not leaving
We will keep making afonja votes minimal
As we have bought all ur lands and pushed u all towards agbara area

tiredoflife:
We don't care if afonjas remain APC
Lagos is not APC
Afonjas are APC
We will show u all that atiku will get the required votes in Lagos
From we the ones that won't relocate to the village
We will continue to make it difficult for you afonjas to get even 60% votes

Afonjas have remained progressfools

Lagosians include we the other tribes
We won't follow u fools

Governor Ibikunle Amosun's preferred governorship candidate, Hon. Abdulkabir Akinlade on Friday couldn’t help indicting his godfather of being unable to uplift residents of Ogun state significantly.

The governor, he said, was leaving the state hopeless for the next administration.

He lamented all he saw during his campaign tour of 211wards out of the 236 wards in the state was “hopelessness of people.”

Akinlade, who is the Allied Peoples Movement (APM) gubernatorial candidate, a party largely enjoying steady support from Amosun at the expense of the the All Progressives Congress (APC), described the people’s situation as that of “hopelessness.”

The House of Representatives member representing Yewa South and Ipokia Federal Constituency made the comment while fielding questions at the just- concluded BBC Yoruba gubernatorial debate at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library(OOPL), Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital.

The APM candidate, who was aide to Amosun on Revenue matters during his first term in office, made the comment in Yoruba to the consternation of the audience at the debate considering his affinity with Amosun and his administration in the last seven years and eight months.

“I have covered 211 wards in Ogun state and have seen the hopelessness of people,” Akinlade said.

Another gubernatorial candidate at the debate, Prince Gboyega Nasir Isiaka of the African Democratic Congress(ADC) lauded Akinlade for speaking the truth.

Isiaka noted that on his part, he has covered the whole 236 wards about four times since 2011 and was conversant with the hopelessness of the people in the state.

This, he said, formed his quest for the governorship seat come March 2 to enable him change the narrative of the people’s situation.

Imo State governor, Rochas Okorocha has warned that the Igbo may yet lose out in national polity if they fail to apply tact and political wisdom.

Okorocha who recalled the fate of the Ndigbo since after the civil war, lamented that they are about making similar mistakes that put Ndigbo in a disadvantaged position in the Nigerian project.

According to him, “The saying that there was no victor and no vanquished after the civil war is just a mere way to create unity for the country, otherwise the Igbo were the vanquished, ever since the Igbo has fared like the defeated but the most painful aspect is that Ndigbo are about to lose again”.

The Imo governor disclosed that the recent political upheaval in his state, were sponsored by forces outside the state, using politicians from the state to pull him down ahead 2023.

He stated that the calculation is that if he is allowed to continue gathering momentum he will give a good fight for the Igbo Presidency, adding that Ndigbo will be at the losing end if he is politically alienated.

He said “There is more to the noise you are hearing about the governorship election in Imo, it is not about Uche Nwosu, it is about a plot to stop Okorocha by all means, otherwise why will Adams Oshiomhole and Rotimi Amaechi be interested in who governs Imo. The calculation is that if Uche Nwosu becomes governor and I go to Senate, I will be a strong force by 2023. The most annoying fact is that they are using our people to pursue that agenda”.

The governor further gave reasons why he wants to go to the Senate, adding that “I want to go to Senate to remain politically relevant until 2023 and also to represent Ndigbo and the Nigerian masses”.
