Obi has to be the presidential candidate

An Obi-El Rufai ticket is the most viable option

franchasng:
Story.


Buhari made Tinubu President through his indifferent and Idoncare attitude which made Tinubu to hijack INEC for the rigging nonsense they did by switching off the iREV portal and polling unit result upload.


Rigging in Presidential election have limit if the people don't want you.


If he likes let him use EFCC to intimidate all the corrupt Governors to decamp to APC, that will never stop him from being defeated in 2027.


The only thing that will make Tinubu win easily is if the so called coalition of opposition fail or if they end up presenting Atiku Abubakar as their consensus Presidential candidate for 2027.



But if the North are serious to stop Bola Tinubu from winning a reelection in 2027, they should swallow their pride and make a sacrifice by announcing Peter Obi as their preferred consensus Presidential candidate for 2027 election. Once the North do this, it is finished for Tinubu and he knows this. They can have a solid agreement with Obi to do only single tenure.


Only a Peter Obi candidacy backed by Northern Nigerians can defeat Tinubu in 2027 irrespective of rigging. Anything less will be a walk over for Tinubu.

This is another great option but the problem is the Obidient movement which is a collection of young Nigerians from all tribe and even religion might not be happy if Peter Obi deputize Atiku, they will lose majority of Obidient people support/vote.


But if Obi can convince Obidients and young Igbos, and Atiku is able to rally his Northern brothers to queue behind him, then they will also defeat Tinubu with all his rigging plans

Tinubu is the one who promised APC Edo that he will give them the governor position

helinues:
Writing results brought Peter Obi into this as he did at his polling unit in the last election

Abi how did writing results came into this conversation to start with

Probably too bitter for you swallow

How does Obi come into the conversation?

helinues:
Why do you mastered hypocrisy like this? Why did you talk about writing results before? It comes to the turn of Peter Obi imagine you saying I am derailing

You guys should at least take responsibility for your own actions

You're derailing because you have not point

helinues:
But Peter Obi also write results at his Agulu polling unit.

How on earth did both president Tinubu and Atiku received zero votes from that polling unit

Whatever you people accused others for must be something you mastered

Yes. With the writing of results by the presidency as happened Edo State and ratified by the corrupt judiciary coupled with EFCC hounding his godfather Okowa, Sheriff is forced to defect

helinues:
Define intimidation

Was Delta state governor also intimidated?

This is the kind of intimidation politics Tinubu plays

helinues:
Talk still in process

Under Tinubu, things are accelerating backwards. Tinubu has failed irreversibly

SoftSport:
Atiku keeps talking like he cares about Nigeria but under Tinubu, at least things are moving forward, talk is cheap, real leadership is what we need now.

God bless Nigeria. God bless Tinubu. God bless Wike.

He did. He went on a thank you tour and even built boreholes

JASONjnr:
Lol.....

Like I said..... I voted for him... same way many northerners voted for him agaisnt their own son, Atiku.

Let's see how that will unfold in 2027...

After Peter Obi won those 4 states in the North, did he ever thank them or appreciated them after the elections was over?

So inspite of how Tinubu is treating the North with disdain, they'll still vote for him?

sleek214:
Obidients should drop this elusive. Obi can't defeat Tinubu on a 2 horse race. Nobody can convince the north to vote for Obi over Tinubu.

Obi won 12 states with 4 of them in the North yef you said he focused on SE with 5 states. Where are the 7 states from?

JASONjnr:
Well.... it will be hard.

Peter Obi focuses only in his region. The same mistake Buhari made.

Atiku is a northerner and this is the time for south.

There's no southern top politician that would come out to challenge Tinubu. Except Tinubu wants it that way.

Also, there's absolutely nothing wrong winning the election without opposition.

Tinubu will lose more than GEJ

JASONjnr:
No matter who leads the coalition.....there will never be a possible outcome for them but for APC.

In politics, politicians will always align with people they can get deals of winning elections with.

Tinubu is holding down his position well... Tinubu is not GEJ.

Obi won twice through yhe judiciary so it was only naturally to expect the judiciary to do the right thing but they were compromised.

INEC said results will be shown in real-time via IREV and thats why LP who couldn't afford polling unit agents for 176k polling units didnt bother much because results will be posted live. What did they do? They saw Obi winning,
then shutdown IREV even though they spent 300 billion to procure it

tunjijones:
Lies... Since when did Nigerians start trusting INEC...

Rest bro.

APC supported by SW continues to treat Fulani Herdsmen with kid gloves

Offpoint1:
How the North let Fulani nomad with no ancestral traced to Nigeria, evolved from Holding of sticks to holding of grade 1 assault rifle baffles me.

Nigeria government and other part of Nigeria are taking it for a joke, in 500 to 1000 years from now, these folks will subdue Nigeria and take ownership.(it's already happening right now, apart from Lagos, there's no single state in Nigeria Fulani has not infiltrated )

Seems we don't read history, this is how most countries lost their lands. It all started from "accommodating 'VICTIMS'..."

How much did Edo state govt pay? They alredy agreed to compensation

Lumig:
These IPOB people are just evil. What do they want to achieve with this narrative?

So how come the economy was growing fast from Obj to GEJ? That's 16yrs and nobody talked of economic collapse but APC brught in their incompetence.

Qhen Buhari was there, you guys say he came to fix the mess of PDP. Now you guys say Tinubu came to fix the mess of Buhari. Accept that you guys are incompetent

isan:
Better outside but decaying inside, it was a time bomb waiting to explode, a matter of time before we turn to Zimbabwe pro max .....who can explain the logic behind defending the dollar with 1.5B$ every month to keep it @ 450? it's more crazy when this money had to be borrowed and what do Nigerians do with this $s ? Spending it on imports

Comparing PDP to APC is like comparing CNN to NTA

Firebox123:
you're just shouting PDP

What do you achieve during PDP tenure in Nigeria

Obi's vote was swapped for Tinubu

tunjijones:
Did he also defeat Atiku. Did Atiku also rig him out ?

Trusted INEC and the Judiciary but they were compromised

tunjijones:
Why didn't you defend the votes the last time?

It has not happened, not because of BVAS or PVC but because INEC is a very corrupt organization

Kobojunkie:
Yet elections carried out during the last 2 years prove that has never happened. Abeg, stop dragging us around in circles and move on o'jare! 😩😩😩😩😩😩

The BVAS is biometrics meaning you can only vote once nationwide. If INEC plans to rig then BVAS will not work as intended, neither will PVC work.

Mind you PVC can be cloned

Kobojunkie:
Um... Obviously, I am using the PVC be used if need be to ensure a single voter is not able to cast 100 votes. Geez! 😐😩🤔

Votes are not registered to a PVC. PVC is for accreditation only. To have credible election, the law should mandate electronic transmission and collation

Kobojunkie:
. That isn't true,e and I already explained this in my previous comment.

2. If each vote had been registered against a unique PVC, rigging would not have happened to the extent that it did in those polling stations, given that ID would have had to spend more time cooking up its results than it did in places like Edo, Imo, Kwara, etc. where it was reported that hundreds of voting records were discovered to have been stamped by the same person.

APC is desperate!

#TinubuIsAOneTermPresident

I know but that was with PVC and BVAS, wasn't it.

Rigging is a different issue that requires electoral reforms like making it compulsory that BVAS numbers must be the determining factor and not voters register

Kobojunkie:
Again, in Edo, Imo, Kwara, etc., there were cases of the BVAs' records exceeding the number of actual voters, all thanks to the padding of numbers at the INEC offices. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

PVC and BVAS is for accreditation. If BVAS accreditation record is lower than actual voters, then its a clear case of overvoting.

Citizens must defend their votes. PVC protects nothing

Kobojunkie:
During the last couple of elections, we also saw situations where one person essentially stamped his fingerprints on over 100 voting records. There are numerous videos of this atrocious practice carried out at various polling stations during the LGA and Gubernatorial elections in Edo, Kwara, Imo, etc. Do we do away with the Biometric system of voting because of that, too?

Why not have the two systems work together for double security, since there remains no solid identification framework in the country to be employed to date for this sort of thing?

Are you counting Rivers Obi won but rigged to Tinubu?

Obi's total votes is about 10 million

LegendHero:
Lol, Obi won with only 400k votes in the South South.

Jagaban got almost 800k votes in the South South even with a Muslim-Muslim ticket. Thank God you won’t be able to say the South south vote him because of religion.

In 2027, Tinubu will get more votes in the South South than any other contestant.

There are no Nigerians benefitting by virtue of supporting APC. When the water level falls, all things on the water falls

Ttalk:
Keep ranting while SS are projecting themselves for 2039. Many of you would be regretting your wasted years you spent on SM hating and abusing when your region missout.

You still have opportunity to make a change today

Sherif will lose his reelection

ken6488:
Delta is now APC

Peter Obi belongs to an organization appointed by the Pope himself and they're meant to be there. If you don't know something, stop criticizing.

He is a private citizen too. I'm sure you did not criticize Tinubu for being in France for 20days

chatinent:
Whether you support him or not, I don't really care. I'm not trying to discourage your support or separate you from your mandate. But his departing there to Rome for the Pope's demise to commiserate with them is UNNECESSARY and the height of EYE SERVICE.

A simple tribute will travel far and serve better. He's becoming an upscale Sanwo Olu because of politics, who kept on visiting every Dick, Tom, and Harry...for mere political points.


Political points aren't scored like this.


Politicians are predictable.

You are free to air your differing opinions anyways...mine is differing too.

That's small compared to Tinubu's margin in SW and Obi's margin in SS/SE

LegendHero:
Almost 900k

'Some have more than one' another reason PVC should be done away with

Kobojunkie:
1. Huh?

2. Huh? Working class people are unable to collect PVCs with which to uniquely identify themselves as voters, but illiterates, underage individuals, and criminals have easier access to these PVCs, some having more than one?

Many working class people are unable to collect their PVC hence cannot vote. This PVCless voting will help them so that illiterates dont decide elections

Kobojunkie:
If the system has been so great, why has it failed to produce results since 2023? Why has it enabled rampant voting fraud instead?
