i live in rivers state, i don't know where wike love is coming from, river state is PDP loaded, as good as tonye cole candidate looks like ,the support of PDP in the state is making it looks like PDP will win the state irrespective of who is in charge.

The igbos formed the major support base of wike ,so if you in agreement that the igbos supporters have left him ,that means is finished, Bayelsa delegates gave him zero votes, just incase you forget, ijaws don't support someone without benefit, same with his ikwere brothers.

His genuine support group have left him, those shouting his name now are the ones that were personally involved.

That's where you're getting it all wrong, power is best acquired through stealth, silence,and strategy...no be by gra gra and noise, the loudest ones in the room are mostly the weakest. Once again ask any person from the South South about Okowa and they will tell you, this is the same person who challenged godfatherism under Ibori in Delta state until Ibori had to raise his hand and declare him governor.

AmehTsaev:
Yaribaa man once again you've shown yourself to be another daft Tinubu goon trying too hard to sound smart.

Wike is a money bag whose test of popularity (albeit overhyped) in the South South revolves ONLY around Rivers state money and nothing more, that's why he got little to no solidarity from South South governors and other major stakeholders in the region when he lost out to Atiku on the party ticket (that should tell you something). We are talking about a man who fought and insulted next to everybody of high repute in the South South including political heavyweights within the region who would have had his back, right now Wike is boxed into a corner like a squeamish little fighter with no punch left in him, he has no solid political foundation in the South South, he has no friends or allies among his South South colleagues, the man is just living on borrowed time until his tenure ends. So even if he strikes some imaginary deal with Tinubu, the Wike of today isn't even powerful enough to deliver a 25% vote in his own Rivers state, not to talk of the whole South South...the quiet but deadly strong man of the South South is actually Ifeanyi Okowa, if you doubt me, go and ask anybody who is familiar with South South politics.

manontree:
Far better than Wike. All those wanting Wike as VP nominee wants Atiku to lose. Wike is dangerous, loquacious, mean and everything evil. Aside Rivers, no one else would vote for a Wike Ticket

This much is known. Atiku/Okowa appeases the Igbos who has been neglected by the other main political party, APC. This ticket ensures Igbo representation at a critical time a civil war is looming from their continual neglect. There is no way a sane SOUTH SOUTH and South East person would rather vote for a Muslim Muslim SW/North West ticket

With this ticket Atiku would sweep SS, SE, NE, NC and do well in NW. I cant see him losing this to APC's SW and NW

famouscargo4u:
okay, they are 40% and Yoruba is just 10% Are you happy now?

famouscargo4u:
Yes, Non-Yoruba are not more than 45% in Lagos.

famouscargo4u:
Igbos are about 30-35% in Lagos. Other Non-igbos and Non-Yoruba are about 10%

I believe you are intelligent human capable of thinking and researching on your own

Kindly dispute any lies I told

Mooh247:
[s]On Human Capital Development Indexes Lagos ranks 1st not only in Nigeria but Africa[/s]

[s]GDP per capita Lagos remains number one in Nigeria, an Okada rider in Lagos is richer than a school principal in Anambra
[/s]
[s]Objectively Tinubu towers all other aspirants in academic, knowledge, wisdom, anticidennce and everything a leader can compete with
[/s]

Nigerians would be stupid to miss this once in a lifetime opportunity due to prejudice of religion and ethnicity

LP will split PDP's south east votes while NNPP will split APC's north west votes, even with that APC still have a edge.

lailo:
Thanks my brother.
Not too many people know that Tinubu has great influence in the EFCC since the days of Ribadu till this present Bawa. Besides he has considerable influence in the judiciary just like Governor Wike of Rivers. You shouldn't have easily forgotten that it is this same Tinubu that Akpabio first ran to in Lagos when EFCC hooked his scrotal sac and he pledged his loyalty to Buharis regime and offer to decamp from PDP. Remember he was a PDP backbone, a minority leader in the senate. Tinubu was the one who stood for him to have a soft landing and even later became minister. He should have either ran to Ameachi or Osinbajo if these two actually wield the type of rescue he wanted, why Tinubu?

[s]The notorious Canceller on politics section has finally been put to his place.
After receiving numerous complaints of his cancelling activities on this forum, Seun finally removed the strike through feature from nairaland. Henceforth, no nairalander can strike through (cancel out) people's posts.
It was necessary to tame that troll that lacks respect for people's political opinions but rather takes it personal and even goes as far as defaming and blackmailing his targets all because of political differences.[/s]

Roads are the basics, stop praising governors for doing their job. Let's talk of empowerment, building factories managed by private consultants,.mass skills training of youths and handing over of tools to start to earn a living. Akwa ibom is an oil rich state...how much is their minimum wage...this is what the governor should be doing. Roads are basics, and only take like 20% of state revenue...the rest money should be used on the people.
