Am not worried a bit about this INEC and APC thing in Zamfara. Even if eventually APC are disallowed to field candidates, that doesn't guarantee PDP anything. There's always a better plan B which would even make PDP cry more.

APC would just ensure that another irrelevant party wins and then defect. Lobatan.

Lolz!
Same way you assisted Jonathan abi?

emmie14:
why are you against restructuring? What negative feedback will restructuring bring to Nigeria as a nation?

God knows am not against restructuring. As a matter of fact it favours Lagos more if am not mistaken. But thinking that call can be achieved through a Northern President is what am not buying. Atiku is just taking advantage of those clamouring for it because he want power by all means(he can't even get it). Have you heard any legislator talk about it? No, they won't because it will distort their unnecessary allowance.

It is not about the going, it is about the coming back.

It is not about the going, it is about the coming back.

No, you for bother na whether immigration no go use you do training.

Exactly my point.
If you think an Atiku will single handedly restructure Nigeria the way he is brandishing it on the face of some people just because that's exactly what they want to hear, think again.

Saraki already spoke the mind of the legislators when he said Nigerians should not believe the call of restructuring by Atiku as no President can do it on its own. He is just trying to play a fast one on the people.

You can believe whatever you want but my point is..................

One Million ATIKU cannot see draw against PMB.-Madridguy

OYAY:
Gbam!!! Your submission made absolute sense for the unbiased beings; am still surprise about the enthusiasm that is following this Atiku's restructuring slogan without him expatiating on how he will go about it! Anyway mugu o ni tan Nile( there will always be people to scam)

Abi ooo!
These people have failed to see the true picture. How many of the Legislators they have seen talking about or backing that call? Many forces are against it yet they think the said and do has come. Am sure he will be telling the northern elites too that he is just deceiving them because presently no Northerner is bold enough to call for restructuring.

We are telling them the truth they are beating their chest.

In SE nobody votes because a governor said so. People in SE love Obi starting from Abia after the well arranged polling he conducted at the Town Hall to Anambra.

Please let's stop all these. I want us to read with understanding. Go back and read what I wrote, I never said any Governor can tell the people who to vote.

To a large extent the Governor can determine the final result of the vote that leaves the state in respective of who is voted for or against. The 1.9m votes of Kano and the 1.4m of Port Harcourt were the hand work of the Governors.

I am not saying that's what the Governors would do but not getting their absolute support is dangerous because if they act indifferent the outcome won't be to PDP advantage.

That being said, Buhari still remain our candidate and no alliance can change that.

It is normal to meet with top contenders before every elections cos of the large followers of support they have, which if not pacified to maintain peace could lead to something else. To me this is important because Nigerians are something else.

uchennamani:
Perhaps, you need to update your understanding of south eastern politics. Igbos won't obey their governors' as long as the subject of the discussion is centered on Buhari. An average Nnamdi or Chinedu in Aba, Onitsha or Owerri won't vote for Buhari because their Governors don't like Atiku's choice of his running mate. It is simple: Igbos are independent, and they guard this fiercely.

Then you need to do something about your understanding or sighting if you didn't see or comprehend where I said the Governors will just allow APC to have a field day and that your said votes would become meaningless.

Lolz

It is a big joke to see an Elder statesman would fall for this social media gimmicks of Atiku restructuring Nigeria. While am not against his advice, I still think he should know that it is not the sole responsibility of the President to do that.

To begin with, the National assembly as at today, whether we like it or not is indirectly controlled by Saraki and Dogara even before they defected to the PDP. And these two from the on set have been against this government policies. So, those clamouring for restructuring should have taken the advantage and start through them(National assembly). Saraki himself even made mockery of Atiku openly, saying those promising restructuring should not be trusted as they can't do it without the legislative arm of government.

Another point is, Buhari cannot be bullied to do what is not his agenda simply because one failed party is fielding a candidate that is taunting some people with what is constitutionally rigid to achieve.

My own view is, if you want restructuring, lobby your Senates and Reps. Let them fly bills that are pro-restructuring, then you will really know those who are truly against it.

Ignore the Governors at your own peril. They've just told you they will work for Buhari reelection and you're doubting it. All they need to do is allow APC have a field day during the presidential election. Your vote becomes meaningless.

Most of you don't understand politics, you just make noise.

Yinmu........all these won't fly at all. How you want to explain this to the village women and men that APC and Tinubu has already captured is what I don't know.

Atiku should stop worrying himself over nothing cos he can't even defeat Buhari.

Aliyu Wamakko will teach this one that he does not need Federal might to unseat him in next year election.

RIP to the departed soul.

Even those that can't win election in front of their house sef will be talking trash.

Definition of life!

Buhari will win hands down. Prophet, please drop the permutation. Thank you! Next please!

No place for corrupt individuals in this country. Haters can hang oo.
All those wey steal our money must vomit am by crook or by hook. Dem think say na play. The Era of stealing our money and using it to buy our youths is gradually going to an end. If constitutional laws can't help us in this country, it's high time we took the Decree path. If you can't cope please go to Benin republic.

tesppidd:
Even if 30 million of you vote for Atiku
We shall write the results and announce Buhari as winner.
Then we wait for you in court.



Nonsense!
Nobody has got the monopoly of making stupiid comments.

Holy spirit divine! This one bad gan ni ooo
Most of these people shouting Atiku are just chest beaters. They think those inflated votes that came from Wike and Co in 2015 will happen again. They have forgotten that federal power is now with Tinubu, Ganduje, Akpabio, Lai Mohammed, Amaechi and Co.
Kano alone will do a 3.5m kind of votes.........Atiku sef go fear

Atiku almajiris won't like this.

richidinho:
was lagos ibadan road awarded as a constituency project? a road that will cost close to N150Bn a constituency project? i weep for u

It's a pity you can't read to comprehension.

Some people will just open their mouth and talk like primary school children. "Buhari will lose but won't concede defeat" yan yan yan." Mtcheww! Kids everywhere.

Can a person who does not lose concede defeat? Buhari can not lose this election to an Atiku, forget social media. Or you think you will get those crazy votes you get from Port Harcourt, Akwa ibom and Delta? Think again. The Federal power is now in favour of Amaechi and Akpabio, and not Wike and the rest.

richidinho:
the reason sarki decamped to PDP, thats a federal road that buhari refuse to work

Are you saying the appropriation bill turned budget didn't pass through the Senate president to see this road isn't included or it was supposed to be one of the constituency projects a Senator appropriated for and siphoned the money?

Even if the Senate president has padded the budget to do this road he won't be condemned totally. But no, he would rather steal the money and use a chopper.

You don't know a thing.

These small small parties will deflate PDP votes as those who love Buhari would still maintain their votes for him while those who don't want him will go for Donald Duke and Oby.

If you're expecting anything good from a thing that wrecked a whole bank then I don't know what to say to you.

The APC and especially the Presidency is not distracted by all these noise. No vacancy in Aso rock till God knows when.

You owe no one explanation and you write book full.......you try. You guys are forgetting many things and it's making my laff to laff. Suddenly, everyone has turned to political calculator

You have forgotten that the figures that came from South South and East in the last election was inflated in favour of PDP cos they were in power then, and they couldn't try such in the North cos they all wanted Buhari. This time no governor would want to put his own 2nd term ambition on the line for an Atiku victory they are not sure of which is likely won't be the case for APC in the North.

When you beat your chest, consider many factors. Who is in power? Who controls the security apparatus? Who controls INEC? Thank God for Jega and many big wigs controlling their States that aligned with APC in 2015, PDP wouldn't have lost.

Those giving Southwest to Atiku should remember Tinubu and the Governors. They are likely to commit all there resources in ensuring that APC wins here. Remember what happened in Ekiti and Osun. You might want to say the margin was close but don't forget the results that came for the direct primaries for the President. It's a signal that they won't score less than that in the secondary election.

Except there's a massive defections of big wigs of those who control the machinations of states from APC to PDP in the coming days.., if everything remains this way, Buhari would win with a landslide and many PDP National assembly members won't return.

When you beat your chest, consider some factors.

It's a pity that these people hope will be dashed come February 2019.
