right now the constitution states if you defect, you loose your mandate but no one respects the rule again

True,but it allows for defection if there is crisis in your party. Rigidity will mean allowing no conditions for defection.

ObservantFellow:
I think what you meant to say is that the call for evidence was out of place. Your talk of assets and actors and support in the North have little in connection to our bone of contention, bros. As for cash inducement, pretending that it is not a mainstay of Nigerian politics/politicians is just you choosing to bark up the wrong tree. Maybe I am being simplistic. But I know my numbers. Just like pre-2015, only the results of 2019 can justify my assumptions

I am a deep and engaged student of politics. I have never been incorrect in my analyses. The events of the primary season,particularly from September ending to first week of October will educate you better and show you that your assumptions are premised on wrong grounds.

I called for evidence as per your suggestion of cash inducement as the critical tool of APC’s electoral triumphs.

michlins:
All these cross carpeting is hurting our progress as a nation. We need to reset this nation completely. These people, PDP and APC are one and same

A rigid constitutional amendment stating that if you defect you must resign will do the magic.

Gov Tambuwal d gambler...wondering what will be going thru his mind right now...

He will be shiting in his pants!

fuckpro:
...just be truthful are you from akwaibom

You have commented on political events and experiences in states that you don’t come from. Quite petty.

Do you need to be Hausa-Fulani to know Buhari’s popularity in the north?

Facts are not relative or validated by location on these issues.

ObservantFellow:
I posted it. I clearly remember responding to a comment saying APC would get 40% votes in the SE/SS region to which I responded that their best bet is 15% with cash inducements. And you pop up asking for evidence. Evidence of what?

Reducing the numerous electoral assets and political actors the party is attracting in those zones to such simplistic deductions is uncharitable,heavily prejudiced and cheaply speculative.

So,cash inducement is APC’s major tool of winning support?That is what I found repulsive.

My response to you was to say despite similar suggestions of APC’s increasing unpopularity and diminishing colours in the north and even Kogi State,the elections yesterday suggest otherwise.

Gerrard59:
The poster you quoted is right. Luke is extremely popular in the state and has the support of most of the persons who would vote in any election in Akwa Ibom. Remember that he convinced Udom not to ban Keke within the city due to economic hardship it'd bring.

It might not be #2BN, but I'm sure APC will love to have him within their midst.

Thanks for educating me about his electoral value. Was only saying the deputy governorship slot and 2B from Buhari is just not true.

JusticeSeeker:
These three LGAs he represents are Christian dominated that's why he will still win on religious affiliation.

Even when he could only deliver one for the PDP?Na wao for you o.

fuckpro:
...for your info that guy has a strong grassroot structure than the governor if he is to contest for election he will beat Udom hands down he is the face of the future and all Akwaibomites know that so don't doubt the statement

Face of the future,indeed.

You can chose to be idealistic,politics is a game of pragmatism. Akwa Ibom has more than 30 more powerful politicians than that boy.

masseratti:
thank you, you remember very well.

Thanks.

Outside selling our national assets to himself,what else did he do as Vice President?

He is so desperate and could change his name to anything just to become president.

Given his desperation, it can never really be about service.

His ONLY chance was 2003 when the PDP governors asked him to run against Obj and Audu Ogbeh was loyal to him. He blew it.

Asiwaju gave him the platform of AC in 2007,he messed up and ran back to the PDP instead of remaining to build it for 2011.

Atiku,history will remember you as the most desperate presidential aspirant in our nation.

Na preliminaries yet. Kickoff never start.
He should try to visit Kano soon.

bjayx:
APC cannot get the amount of votes they got then in the southwest cos many of the people are aggrieved n angry. Depending on who emerges the flagbearer of PDP, southwest votes will be shared. Don't forget middle belt will be shared also.

The same way they imagine northerners are now angry with APC,and that ALL Kogites hate APC because of Bello.

Again,I don’t see your expectations happening. Just bookmark my post and remember this chat.

blaqoracle:
the Israeli jews are very good in mathematics and logic, but these biafran Jess are very pfor in calculation and Critiical reasoning.

Very true!

bjayx:
Vp slot better for southwest cos they can pull strings there. National chairman from southwest would v made tinubu pry into PDP. Wike having a vendetta wit atiku because of amaech in 2015 n they know if he becomes president... He'll hijack the party machinery from them.

PDP has no hope of 10 percent in any SouthWest state.

The number of aspirants and their desperation will wreck PDP.

PDP will witness its second and final burial when the primaries start between September ending and first week of October.

Just bookmark this.

shugabasbn:
Imagine the other small opposition parties form a consensus APC will be in soup. Seriously we need a strong opposition not that of PDP

Ignorant dreamer. The GPN presented the former PDP Governor of the state,Isa Yuguda.

C’mon House of Representatives member is defeating former 8-year governors and people sponsored by Dogara.

Open your eyes!

senatordave1:
I dont know why you never learn.defections are minor signs but staggerred elections are major symptoms.since 2015,your pdp have lost most of the polls.this rerun should tell you that apc has the edge,your still adamant.
Me and you know that apc is superior to your dying pdp.its high time you get banned for spreading falsehood and hearsays

The guy is deluded and heavily drunk with ignorance. The PDP is a dead party that will have a second and final burial between September ending and first week of October. The primaries will be its interment,not even the elections.

The Atikus of this world will leave and run elsewhere.

Ignore that baby.

ObservantFellow:
Evidence of what?
Did you even understand what you quoted and replied to?
Asking for evidence to a future proposition

Read your own comments first. You appear not to even understand your own posts.

bjayx:
PDP needs a vice from the west to split votes there, besides...tambuwal cant even win his state nor any other state alone....its a dumb move. I hate to admit it but buhari still the man to beat in the north.

PDP should have ignored Fayose and conceded the PDP chair seat to the South West months back. With Wike’s strength in Rivers which will be wrecked soon,he didn’t need that seat.

Truth is,it is already too late to make any impact in the South West.

If he is healthy and alive,Buhari will win his re-election easily.

People can deceive themselves sha. This boy is stupid.

So,a party of Nsima Ekere,Umana,Senator Uduehehe,Senator Enang,Chief Don Etiebet,and now,Akpabio,will now want to bribe a member of the state House of Assembly,never mind the speaker title,with billions and Deputy Governor slot to decamp?

How many elections has he won in his life?

Kids like playing and deluding themselves sha.

alowonle02:
U shouldnt compare Obasanjo with Prof. Wole Soyinka. U should tell us how Soyinka contribute negatively into d development of dis country.

Not interested.Perhaps, busybodies like you can help us.

tuniski:
Dogara is in APC and the last time I checked apc won!
Very childish!

I can see you are deluded and quite uneducated.

bjayx:
Sincerely, tambuwal shouldn't v defected this early. It was suppose to be later in the year to take APC on a sudden run of emergency. Now, he's really gonna v to fight to keep it.

Wike is working to deliver the PDP presidential ticket to him,believing that he will make him his Vice.

This will manifest next month and destroy the PDP.

tuniski:
Childish!

What is?Telling me I don’t understand Bauchi politics for stating the obvious,or the fact that your party lost?

Is the fact that Dogara lost in 2 out of the3 LGAs he represents childish too?

I think lying to yourself despite evidence is childish.

Corrinthians:
Wake me up when Secondus abi Thirdus defects.

Looooool. I know he wants to but for fear of those boys Wike is making traditional rulers.

tuniski:
You don't understand bauchi politics at all.

With your ignorance called understanding,your party has been defeated. Hope you have checked your BP.

blackpanda:
By tomorrow half of Nigeria's politicians we defect to APC. The writing on d wall is clear. Defect or remain a wailing loser!

Yes,those who defected hoping that the challenges in Nigeria have weakened Buhari’s electoral strength began weeping yesterday after the Bauchi,Katsina and Lokoja triumphs.

They will start running back now.

Butterflyle0:
There is a serious sweeping of sokoto with the broom of APC. The other day it was 117 councillors from 23 LG that defected to APC.



It is not a small something

Yes,bro. We know even Mai Gaskiya’s ghost can defeat all the elites put together. They are running into safety while the blind are running to political deaths.

The wise are running to political security,fools are running into political oblivion.

No matter the silly debates, Buhari is the most aggressive political hurricane in the entire north. Run against his party,you are wrecked. His party runs against you, you are politically dead.

Former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Chairman in Sokoto State, Alhaji Abubakar Shehu-Tambuwal, has led about 10,000 supporters to decamp to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Tambuwal Local Government Area of the state.

Addressing a crowd of supporters on Sunday in Tambuwal, Shehu-Tambuwal said they made the decision freely based on their concern to participate in politics that would facilitate good development.

He said they were convinced to join the party because of the viable policies and projects of the APC-led government, stressing that leadership and democracy should be about enhancing infrastructure and ensuring development for the people.

PHILipu1:
Lol.
Will PDP present a Christian and a southerner in 2019 that makes you think the PDP will sweep SE,SS,NC?.
It is going to be between 2 Hausa Fulani and Muslim.

So don't expect people from this zones that you mentioned to only hate APC Fulani Muslim candidate and then love PDP Fulani Muslim candidate.

Write it down that APC and PDP will share votes from this SE,SS votes 50/50.
Anambra election should give you a clue.

You guys have forgotten that the term that Jonathan was a Christian and from south that you guys used to decieved some people in the south will not be there and PDP no longer control aso rock and it will be difficult for PDP to rig this zones again.

Don’t mind those kids with their one-way assumptions and analysis. They like to dream and feel good away from naked realities.

Even when evidence from the elections of yesterday is clear that their imagined PDP revival is non-existent, they are singing silly songs.

Their biggest shock will be the defection of 3-4 PDP governors in another 4-6 weeks.

Well done.
