For equity , justice & fairness SE should produce the president.

Too late I’m not God sha but the truth remains that even SS are closer to producing the next president compared to their eastern brothers,politics is all about interest and wisdom,wike and ameachi are both huge political individuals in Nigeria who ganner much respect at home though they are in two different parties another example is Jonathan once Jonathan declares u know what’s up, the ibos should have started this push since 2019 after atiku lost, instead they carry SS matter for head they cry more than the bereaved now the so called SS have repositioned themselves and are now vying for the highest office in Nigeria while ibos are now begging the SS politicians not to contest ibos should learn how to play politics and build bridges it’s not rocket science that Hausas and yorubas keep dominating aso rock it’s simple they play politics with sense why we in the SE play it with sentiment and emotions,the evil apc is now where we want to contest abi the rugeria now we one rule now abi Nigeria nor be zoo again,the way I’m seeing things SS go soon pass una for political schemes kudos to wike for stopping ipob madness in rivers state

Are you normal at all ? Where is the lie in what he said ?

There are large part of Nigerians that would never vote Igbo man no matter how one Nigeria he is ..so what's the point we Igbos are realist

There are few Nigerians more Nigerian that orji kalu ...I'm happy him and rochas eyes are opening ,soon umiah would see the light ...

Better even future Igbo leaders like me are watching n learning ...post 2023 would be exciting for the Igbo nation honestly can't wait

My brother Nigerians don’t hate igbos, it’s the igbos that have refused to settle down in their own country,I know u will site the civil war,quick fact after the civil war 4 or 3 yes later an ibo man became the vp of Nigeria and the party won,ibos should learn how to tolerate if the ibos had allowed wisdom prevail post 2015 by now I can assure u even the yorubas fear will not allow their candidates to vy for presidency,because everyone would have joined hand and made sure an ibo man became the next president,instead u guys towed the wrong path insulting everyone from every other tribe,ipob have set ibos five yrs back with their political approaches,

If not for mnk I will say it wholeheartedly igbos would have clinched the presidency sit come 2023, the igbos only have themselves to blame for playing nonsense politics from 2015 till date as main opposition,when buhari succeeded Jonathan the biggest losers were the south south people this was the first time they held power and it only lasted for 6yrs,the ibos benefited from the ss rule massively,the ibos and sS started towing toward the way of violence and bitterness after losing the general elections in 2015,but the smart SS quickly changed their steps and strategies,some of their leaders decamped to Apc the likes of akpabio and ovie omoagege the clinched good roles in the part ovie became deputy senate president while others occupied some prominent sit in a government that removed their brothers,if it were the ibos they will destroy akwaibom and start hurting themselves so as to punish akpabio,but the sS allowed those decampee to enjoy their new party,while in the south east political decampees were insulted and stoned people like roachas ouk and the likes were chased out of SE because of their contrary views,the ibos even took the whole 2015 election lost pain than the sS setting up plans for this government to fail,demonising everything about apc,instead of joining hands and moving the country foreword ipob encourage apathy in the SE,ibos played politics like kids post 2015,fast forward to 2022 the south east and south south lost political credibility in 2015 but today SS have so recovered that if care is not taken one of their sons will be sitting in the aso villa come 2023 while our south easterners are crying that presidency should be zoned to their region after antagonising the whole country for complete 7yrs of buhari misrule,I’m not supporting apc,but the south easterners should stop making it look like the whole country hates ibo people,most of my very close friends are from owerri we have ibo neighbours who we patronize in business, the ibos fought for the independence of this great country massively than any other tribe,it’s time the ibos stop seeing themselves as strangers in their own house,what happened over 40yrs ago in the civil war is past,look into the future and start laying seeds that will see u go back to the giant u were.

Working perfectly

A week old

How much?

Messi have won more football trophies both individual trophies and team trophies than Ronaldo and that’s what football is about, and his goal return ain’t bad maybe it’s time we call this goat debate close.

ArewaNorth:
Honestly, they will never understand this pure fact. I have been telling hem this for long. How can someone call Buhari who only understands Hausa, born by Kanuri mother and Fulani father and tag him all nonsense affiliated to Fulani? That is why we prefer to be called Northerners than being call with ethnic identity. Consequently. that is why SW, SE are having serious problem selling their candidates to other Nigerians. It is difficult to accept ethnic President in Nigeria but North and SS are safe in this case. Souh are always confuse anytime when Buhari gives Northerner appointment. For North all the 3 zones are preferred to be called North but for South they are too divided along ethnic line and identity that is why it always become an issue of distinction when appointment is made in their region or other the region.
The uniqueness of North is, Buhari, is a Fulani from NW; Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, Kanuri from NE; Secretary of the Federal Govt, Boss Mustapha, Kilba and a Christian from NE; Chairman Northern Governors forum, Simon Bako Lalong, a Christian from NC make up the Northern unique structure. Despite being the most diverse region, North is more coordinated than South.

Only south south and north have this uniqueness,if u give a SS man appointment they don’t care to know if he’s delta akwa ibom or rivers,the problem of Nigeria is ibos and yorubas they are too tribalistic

mi35:
My guy, I have been on this platform for a while, though in the shadows most of the time and been observing. Your assertion about our southern brothers is among the most accurate I have seen of late. Most of them are way too ignorant (ignorance is not a bad thing, we all have things or fields that we are absolutely daft about) but the way they carry their ignorance, you will be ashamed on their behalf. A popular lie that Fulani's are controlling Hausa( since when did you even start caring about the Hausa's in the first place), that a Yoruba is not allowed to lead Fulani in salah ( told you you will be ashamed on their behalf) and many more. They are ignorant, Loud and empty, toxic and sentimental, yet na to dey carry false educational superiority for head (debate any of them and put him/her to shame, narrative will change). I have met a few that cannot stand a Fulani boy been better than them ( we are not supposed to speak Queen's English).
Wadannan mutanen bata lokaci ne ma ka tsaya kana back and forth da su, da yawansu bakaken jahilai ne.

The most ignorant tribe is the Igbos sorry to say,they even play politics with rumours and celebrate fake news, a very mature Igbo person believes in rumours and live in ignorance,like the lie that they are lost tribe of Israel, that mnk already have biafra Nigeria can’t arrest him because Israel and Britain will die for him,they believe gowon is Igbo they believe obasanjo is from onitsha,whenever I’m listening to igbo people political view I always laugh their current set of indigene lack proper and rational knowledge or should I say there people on nairaland.mind u I’m Igbo from SS and our people reasoning needs to upgrade so we can start playing our role as major tribe in Nigeria.

Tinubu watching pyo perceived betrayal like,this will play out like the Akintola awolowo Wild West story I read about,last last it will turn to an hateful politics between some sw politicians and pyo especially if he goes on to win the primaries will bat work against him

Lanretoye:
The fake pastor using the position if the VP and public funds to campaign.he should resign as vice president and face his campaign.now his logistics and funds will draw directly from government coffers...scam

And the old BAT is using accumulated stolen wealth to campaign and destroy you and your children generation,how people feel comfortable rooting for a grandpa that have underlying health challenges is baffling,instead for u to be championing obi and PYO u are busy rooting for oldies that are still struggling to operate sagem phones smh

Tinubu fan boys running here to call star boy PYO Judas the carrot >

Obaseki when wike finally becomes president

Wizkid fc will soon give this one smack down,wizkid is the only celebrity that doesn’t reply his Twitter squad do the fighting for him

olatuns2017:
Joe biden and Trump are young stars

Ur hate of an astute enigma
Who is a rare gem

Won't stop him

America is not the standard,I hate this nonsense Nigerians always bring up,so because American have disasters and ancestors as president in the past two tenure does that mean we should copy them check Fox News or even cnn online see the way Americans are complaining even a democrat I’ve forgotten his name he’s a congressman they are seriously kicking against him they don’t want him because he’s old

After collecting millions of dollars from tinubu to stay away from apc presidential primaries,Baba is only watching everyone make their moves and make it look like he’s not interested,bookmark this conmen OUK will declare for president and he will sabotage Sw agenda he’s the ace card apc cabals are holding for last card

Jonathan acting unaware to the public,meanwhile na him pay the protesters to come and protest and make him feel wanted,there’s a lot of similarities between Nigeria and wwe

olatuns2017:
Zulum using ambition of VP

This is IPoB thinking

Pls are u ibo?

This is last week picture big speaker of Zulum

I didn't even bother to read ur comment finis

Zulum that no other candidates contesting with in Borno as Gov 2023

From ur ipob talk I just weak for you,get a life outside nairaland not everybody that don’t support BAT is from the east, as for me I will either vote pyo or ameachi bat is old he should retire or continue his onuwo job which is a king maker

Penguin2:
Peter Obi and Peter Obi.

Others are crooks

Very funny people Igbo people have lost logic and rational reasoning,imagine hating everybody and expecting people to like you,with the way I’m seeing things this is just the beginning of the downfall of ibos politically even the SS will make it to aso rock as president before ibo just watch and see

SEGLIZ:
don't mind the folly he posted up there. he chose the ten states with the bloc vote claiming tinubu is getting auto vote. what happens to others, if the sixteen give a mass vote to PYO?

kindly ask him who sponsored this jubilant supporters that roled out the drums for PYO the day he declared to run for presidency?

the tinubu supporters are working hard spreading propaganda everywhere to dampen the spirit in PYO lovers, it won't work.

The painful part is that tinubu only travel two territories,he’s using the Buhari technique of north and south west alone alone matter in politics,forgetting that tinubu is not a Fulani lol,while PYO is trying to gather nation wide acceptance PYO have traveled to the south east the south south he have political acceptance in the whole country,tinubu on the other hand is just a south west and north west politician,why haven’t tinubu visited the Midwest states to start with sef,pyo will shock bat supporters just watch

2023: A Look At The APC’s 7,800 Delegates And Tinubu’s Unanimous Support
~ By Osigwe Omo-Ikirodah

“Tinubu doesn't take up an impossible assignment nor romance failure. He will shock opportunists and pessimists.”
- Chief Bisi Akande

Everything is now in place for the mother of all conventions, which will determine the presidential candidate for Africa's largest political party, the All Progressives Congress, APC.

The party has tentatively set the convention date for May 30/31 2022.

Of course, the APC would prefer an electoral process in which delegates from the 36 states of the Federation and the Federal Capital Territory would choose the party's representative or a consensus arrangement where the President alongside the Governors and party stakeholders including the contestants would arrive at a consensus candidacy.

As it stands what are the chances of the various aspirants who have indicated an interest in the presidency under the APC.

The names of aspirants who have expressed interest in the party's ticket are listed below.

Bola Tinubu, David Umahi, Yemi Osinbajo, Rochas Okorocha, Rotimi Amaechi, Yahaya Bello, Sani Yerima, Orji Kalu, Chris Ngige, and Ogbonnaya Onu.

Now let us take a quick look at the national delegates according to their geo-political zones.

North West: 1, 924 delegates…, South West: 1,568 delegates..., North Central: 1,278 delegates

North East: 1, 212 delegates..., South East: 838 delegates..., South South 927 delegates.

Total = 7,800 Delegates.

A quick rundown from States is as follows:

Kano 465 delegates; Katsina 384; Borno 324; Osun 308; Lagos 304; Oyo 292; Jigawa 266; Niger 251; Ogun 248; Nasarawa 245; Abia 154, Adamawa 184; Akwa Ibom 165; Anambra 163, Bauchi 202; Bayelsa 79; Benue 180; Cross River 194; Delta 170; Ebonyi 154; Edo 168; Ekiti 216; Enugu 131; Gombe 134; Imo 236, Kaduna 234; Kebbi 213; Kogi 222; Kwara 195; Ondo 200; Plateau 185; Rivers 151; Sokoto 193; Taraba 146; Yobe 222; Zamfara 169 and FCT 53.

For the sake of space, we'll confine our litmus test to the top ten states for a comprehensive examination.

The top 10 in order of importance are listed below.

1. Kano 2. Katsina 3. Borno 4. Osun 5. Lagos 6. Oyo 7. Jigawa 8. Niger 9. Ogun 10. Nasarawa.

1 Kano:
If the body language of both Ganduje and Shekarau is anything to go by, Kano State is a no-go zone for other hopefuls. As we all know, the Governor of Kano State is a staunch Jagaban supporter. Ganduje is the only governor who can be regarded to be as close to Tinubu as he is.

Shekarau has stated numerous times that Kano State is sure for Tinubu.

2 Katsina.
HE Aminu Bello Masari is without a doubt Tinubu's most ardent supporter; he has always stated that when Tinubu leads, others will follow. His devotion to Tinubu is evident on a daily basis. Katsina State would undoubtedly be delivered by Aminu Bello Masari.

3 Borno State.
It may be of interest to you to know that Prof Zulum and Kassim Shettima, the predecessor to Prof Zulum, are renowned supporters of Tinubu's candidacy. Borno State is like Tinubu's Bourdillion residence.

4 Osun State
Other aspirants should avoid Osun, which has 308 delegates. We all saw how the Jagaban's close buddy Oyetola trounced Aregbesola in the recently concluded APC primaries in Osun State, and the delegates are unanimous in their support for Tinubu.

5 Lagos State
Lagos has four fewer delegates than Osun, with 304. Should we waste time debating whether or not Sanwo Olu would deliver for Tinubu? Please allow me to take a bow on behalf of Lagos.

6 Oyo State:

Because the PDP controls the state, Tinubu can count on 70 per cent of the delegates from Oyo even if the state does not show up solely for the Jagaban.

7 Jigawa State.
The Governor of Jigawa State, Muhammad Badaru Abubakar, is a close ally of Tinubu, and so also is the former Governor, Alhaji Ibrahim Saminu Turaki, who has accompanied the Jagaban on most of his recent visits around the Northern States. In Jigawa, Tinubu has a strong showing.

8 Niger:
Are you aware that Abubakar Sani Bello, the governor of Niger State, has since endorsed Tinubu's candidacy?

9 Ogun:
Should we give Osinbajo the benefit of the doubt since it is his state? If history is any guide, Osinbajo when in Lagos APC never won an election in his ward as a sitting Vice President.

Would Adedapo Oluseun Abiodun betray Tinubu or Osinbajo by delivering Ogun? This question would be validated over time.

10 Nasarawa State
Governor Abdullahi A. Sule once wore Tinubu's signature cap to a meeting of the State Executive Council. He is Tinubu's unrepentant ally.

So, with these ten states and Tinubu very certain to win the majority of delegates, it's time to think about the Federation's entire 36 states.

Let me now explain how a consensus works for people who believe a consensus is the best way to be on the party's ticket.

The first criterion for a consensus is that all of the contestants agree. The next criterion is who has the ability to defeat the opposition PDP, and the final criterion is who has the support of the majority of stakeholders.

The last item on the list clearly illustrates that if there is a consensus, the most likely aspirant to emerge is the one who has the support of the majority of the delegates.

So, when conducting your own research, have a look at the other candidates stated above and conduct a thorough examination vis a vis the 36 States.

Politics is a local game; it's not about feeling or how you feel about your favourite candidate; it's about who is best equipped for the task at hand

I stopped reading when u said tinubu already have Zulum in the bag lol,even as a small boy that I am I know zulum is nursing his ambition as Vice President so u think zulum don’t want to be in aso rock as Vice President to PYO or ameachi lol very funny, zulum only bet is for a Christian southerner to win the primaries,as for tinubu presidential hope the odds against him is too much in a very delicate Nigeria Muslim Muslim ticket won’t fly,his presence alone in edo state election made obaseki loose I benefited from tinubu detribalise Lagos state but the truth is if u travel to the east and south south region of Nigeria tinubu is hated because of the fear that tinubu will pocket Nigeria the whole summary is that tinubu have the biggest obstacle to climb than any other presidential candidates,let’s even forget about the eastern candidate that are just joking with this whole president something they know they can’t get it

The way Arsenal and England football fans hate Chelsea eh u go wonder I don’t blame them sha they are looking for people that will be In the same position as them .

Assnal fans can reply me when they make their second UCL final debut and they make their first uefa super cup match and also make their club World Cup debut nonsense London trash �

Nigeria will run riot in this game watch and see don’t say I didn’t tell you,stake anything you have Nigeria to score 3 goals in the 2nd half

Ibos and believing fallacy see them jumping up and down praying to return to the zoo,I thought the biafra pound and biafran passport is better than that of the zoo,very soon these returnees will flood Lagos and port harcourt they will never return to the land of the rising sun,instead they will choose to return to other people land because they are scared of what they created in the east. Lol

Final
