His not getting 40% of SS vote.

He has gotten it already. He will win Akwa, cross river, rivers, get 30% in Edo,36% in bayelsa and 25% in delta

Penguin2:
No.

I’m becoming amenable to Obi running as Atiku’s running mate in 2027 and succeeding him as president in 2031 or whenever.

That way, we’ll get Obi’s 4 years of Vice Presidency and 8 years of Presidency.

If we insist on him running in 2027, Tinubu men will exploit the fear of power being in the South for 12 years to campaign against him in the north; while southern stakeholders seem to have sold themselves to Tinubu for a plate of pudding.

So, I’m more logical and pragmatic than you reckon. The problem lies with majority of Obidients who seem not to be thinking.

Rather than supporting Atiku, better support Tinubu

sagitariusbaby:
People don't really know that politicians like governors have little or nothing to influence mass vote in thier states. Take for instance, as tough as Oshiomole was he never won Edo state for his party during presidential elections even though he was a sitting governor with full federal might. Okowa even lost delta state to Labour Party in the elections he was running as a vice president. Let the whole politicians decamp, the voice of the masses will still be heard come 2027. Sanwolu also couldn't deliver Lagos state to his daddy.

Oga, governors are relevant especially governors with capacity and popularity. Oshiomhole didn't win Edo but he got 40% for buhari. Obaseki failed to give Atiku 25%. Okowa failed woefully because he had no capacity. Sanwoolu at least tried to get 45% for tinubu...

IyfeNamikaze:
It is not just SE, even SS are not going to vote Tinubu, North are going to Vote their own, the poverty caused by Tinubu policies has hit them the hardest. And unless Tinubu and his goons disenfranchise the non Yoruba indigens in Lagos, he's not winning there also.

Tinubu will get 40% of SS and north. The north don't see Atiku as their own

ivandragon:
Affliction shall not rise a 2nd time.

The incompetent and self serving bat will be kicked out in 2027.

For Obi or Atiku

ivandragon:
Why not stay in your lane?

2027! Bat!! Out!!!

Bat in. Stay out of politics

ddippset:
If votes are allowed to count, an Atiku/ Obi merger would anahilate Tinubu before Noon on election day.

The only place where Tinubu will massacre them is at INEC headquarters Abuja.

So maybe you are right.

Rigging is not that easy as you think. Rigging takes place at the various units not at inec office sir. Obi aligning with Atiku will lose half of his supporters and atiku will lose many voters in the Muslim north

ddippset:
They should present Obi/El Rufai.

Atiku should not contest but endorse them.


Emilokan will be sent back to Bourdillon before 12 Noon on election day.

Tinubu will massacre them. The rivers situation hasn't taught you a lesson

ivandragon:
It is worrisome that the masses have to chose between two evils...

2027! Bat!! Out!!!

Bat till 2031

Dalohad:
You and I know that SE and SS people always vote like identical twins..

Even AKpabio lost the last elections, we all know the judicial abracadabra that kept him in the Senate..

For republican SE and SS na people dey vote who dem want regardless of how politicians feel..

For Feudal-monarchical SW and north, na our traditional leaders and corrupt politicians dey tell us who to vote. Na for there criminal agbero structures dey work.

Use your tongue count your teeth..

How did akpabio lose elections when PDP didn't even challenge his victory

vicetuh:
struggling? Oh you know anything about kogi politics. Natasha won a candidate backed by yahaya Bello administration.

She will be against Bello

kinibigdeal:
What influence? Let the governor defects to APC and see the results. If not that hey have infiltrated PDP with Wike. Akpabio and Eno will be voted out. The state is a PDP state. Have you forgotten that Akpabio didn’t even win the senate sit?

Who won the senate seat

patrickcollins:
A man that can't spelt out amounts written in figure, shouted this thing is confusing me.

So what

ddippset:
Let's hope Okpebolo Oshiomole will abide by the ruling.

A stay of execution will be gotten while they go on appeal

WhizdomXX:
I felt the law stated you need 25% in 24 states and the fct. I am not a lawyer but I love law. It was interpreted otherwise.

Thank God you said you are not a lawyer and the lawyers interpreted it from the legal point. But first, why should getting 25% be compulsory? Fct is less than a state in reality and therefore cannot be elevated above a state. When we are talking about the whole federation, we usually use And to capture or include the Fct.

dalongjnr:
He's saying the truth and realignment is ongoing, its just that the work is underground.
As of now,two big coalition ongoing and consultation to form a bigger coalition is ongoing.
In the APC, two blocks are on their way out but are awaiting confirmation of what's going in the party before deciding their movements.
The ACN(AC) group are controlling everything.
The CPC,ACTION,APGA and coalition of the willing has nothing in the current arrangement.
In fact, the ministers where actually choosing by the president but the same person was on buharis' neck to share positions.
The thing is, most of the big boys within are strategic in their movements so that they won't be caught off guard.
But decamping from the APC will be massive. Just wait for the Congress and cabinet reshuffle.
The thing is, the president is trying to send his boys to infiltrate the other camps but they are already known with their motives.
As it's, 6 APC governors are not with the president. 3 more are on the fence and the choice of VP will determine their next move.

Oga sir, stop giving yourself hope. All governors are with Tinubu

WhizdomXX:
Tinubu that has been there for some time now has failed to do that. This reason here was the singular reason I wanted to vote for him ahead of Obi (Atiku was never an option despite me being a Deltan and all my guys in politics were lobbying me to support him). When Tinubu won I was even happy, aside the FCT issue that I saw misinterpretation of the law in, I believed in Tinubu's regionalism mantra, I believed he will decisively deal with killer herdsmen rampaging the middlebelt and even though I knew he was very corrupt, I had this Ibori mindset that as long as he is working and it is visible everywhere, he can be collecting what he wants on a low. I even joined APC if you don't believe me. Fast forward to today, the federal government is stronger than before, only Lagos State is benefitting from "Tinubu's decentralization" (relocation of cbn et al), killer herdsmen and boko haram attack is now a daily occurrence with scores being killed and kidnapped, corruption cases are more mindblowing in just 2 years ( inflation of nelfund, nnpc scam, etc. ). We are not seeing federal government presence in Delta and in the south south, You are a human being, does Tinubu deserve reelection?

How was the law misinterpreted in Fct

fergie001:
Nah, with senior senators there, no way.

He's pro Tinubu and ranking. Send me Edo tribunal judgment

fergie001:
Promise of VP is not realistic.....
The SS has run ahead of us. We may try luck but we must be realistic. If VP no gree, make our natural position touch us, SP.


Na you sabi.
You people are always the problem. Team up with which North, so that Obi will pick a VP who won't win his Polling Unit ba?

Continue, you are gonna learn.

Ben Kalu will be the SP

RightChannel:
Who rig?

Both sides

RightChannel:
I don't think you know what you're saying!

I know sir. The rigging proven was insignificant to change the final outcome

Patojargz:
Careless question! B like u nor Dey ds country

There was minimal rigging but largely free and fair

vonnelixir:
The mumu Edo governor should shut up.... It was very glaring the election was rigged. I just pity the future of Nigerians because this is the same way 2027 might be.
Observe anyone criticizing obi, u will find out he is morally corrupt

How was it obvious

vicetuh:
in your mind but in reality it is not so

Any proof

Patojargz:
U Dey there naw Abi?

No Naija election is free and fair Jonsin boy

Do you have evidence to prove rigging

mrvitalis:
The Edo election was worse than the presidential elections

Until people are killed for rigging... It would never end.. There must be fear of consequences

Oga, it was free and fair

Penguin2:
And you expect me to take this from you?

Yes sir. How do you win APC with a divided camp

Mrexcell:
That edo governorship election was nothing but open robbery am sure that's the template tinibu is planning to use to win his reelection in 2027.

How was it open robbery? Oga APC won

RightChannel:
The one and ONLY APC witness at tribunal said there was over voting during Edo election but Nigeria APC tribunal court said nothing of such happened that NO over voting.

Overvoting in one unit which was cancelled. PDP witnesses already bungled the case

Penguin2:
We all know that the Edo election was won by Asue Ighodalo.

But Wike cousin employed the Rivers template to rig Okpebholo in.

Nigeria needs to be rescued.

Oga, Asue did not win please. He was never going to win. He was well defeated

Cc fergie, this is clearly false na

Penguin2:
Lol

I support Fubara decamping to APC to checkmate Wike.

I’m sure he must have cut some deals with Tinubu.

Now, being governor, he would become APC leader in Rivers. If anything, Wike is not even an APC member.

It’s same thing that happened in Delta. Governor Oborovwori and Okowa defected to APC to checkmate Ibori who wanted to use the APC to install his man in 2027.

Some undiscerning people sit here and rejoice about defections as if it’s out of love for Tinubu.

But news flash, no matter happens, Peter Obi will still win Southsouth.

Tinubu will likely win SS and if obi wins, it won't be up to 100k votes.
