Here's my breakdown of the reasons behind Dati’s outbursts
1. He felt sidelined by Obi, believing he was being replaced by a more seasoned Vice Presidential candidate in Kwankwaso. Despite this, his loyalty remained intact until the final point of their separation.
2. I am in 100% agreement that Obi lacked the necessary grit to fight for his constitutional rights in 2023, when it mattered most.
3. Ultimately, he senses that Obi might have finally found his footing. This perceived shift in the polity has left him feeling significantly threatened.

Excellent development. It’s good to commend sustainable initiatives, no matter whose ox is gored

Anambra to Enugu, Imo. Too long. Several towns.

Anambra to Abia, at Aguata.

Anambra to Rivers, at Ogbaru.

Anambra to Edo, Nzam(across Oshimmiri).

*Anambra has boundaries:
with Edo at Olumbanasa
with Abia at Olumba
with Kogi at Nzam, Aguleri

Strategically, Anambra shares boundaries with seven states namely;
• Kogi
• Enugu
• Delta
• Imo
• Abia
• Rivers
• Edo

In Igbo cosmology, the shedding of blood was a taboo. This belief shaped a foreign policy that rejected the idea of conquering neighbors or expanding territory through force.

However, If you exclude the Igbo's and based on the metrics of territory seized, longevity of the empire, and innovation in warfare, the title of the greatest military conqueror in ancient Nigerian history is most frequently attributed to Oba Ewuare the Great of the Benin Empire, though Mai Dunama Dibbalemi of the Kanem-Bornu Empire significantly surpasses him in pure territorial reach.

Therefore, the ideal sequence should have been the foundation for Emergency or ICU wards at least for PR and optics sake before any other.

Keep out of things you do not undnerstand. You are not yoruba. You don’t understand the roots and relationships of the Yorubas.

Yayi has been a senator in Lagos and Ogun, he will be the next governor of Ogun.

Since “Lagos”. was expanded into a state it brought people from other parts of yoruba land into “Lagos state”. Ikorodu, Lekki, Epe etc are ijebus, Abule Egba are people from Abeokuta, Abule Ijesha are people from Ilesha. a man can have ancestral roots in Ogun state and be a Lagos indigene. similar relationships exists with people from Oyo, Osun etc. I have ancestral roots in 3 possibly 4 yoruba states. Every yoruba is from Ife. No Ibo is yoruba.

There are indigenous Lagosians who originate from the Nupe in Niger state as they shared a boundary with old Oyo empire. Such relationships and does not exist and can never apply to an Ibo because no Ibo is ever a yoruba. We have never shared a boundary with you. We did not know of your existence or interact with you until recently. There are some people of the SS that can trace their ancestry or families to Lagos or other yoruba states, similarly like I said some Nupe people. Such does not and can never apply to an Ibo. Our history never intertwined, our cultures and values are total opposite. We have nothing in common except Nigeria.

An Ibo can never be an indigene of Lagos or yorubaland. You can only ever be an Ibo residing in the SW.

I. Suggest you mind your business.

Anambra voters are highly informed and sophisticated; they do not play petty politics. They are historically known to vote APGA at the local, senatorial, and gubernatorial levels, then vote overwhelmingly for a competent and appropriate candidate at the national level

Interesting, practical and commendable.

Not really.

ADC won its first seat in the Anambra State House of Assembly but made an into in Anambra South Senatorial.

Q1: Considering APC Ukachukwu's awful perfomance at the just concluded by-election in Anambra state, do you think he has any chance at the November 2025 governorship election?

AI: The outcome of the recent Anambra South Senatorial by-election is a factor in assessing APC candidate Nicholas Ukachukwu's chances in the November 2025 governorship election, but it's not the only consideration.

Here's a breakdown of the key factors at play:

• By-election performance.

• The November 2025 governorship race & APGA power of incumbency.

• APC's internal crisis

• APC's Fedral advantage

Q 2: APGA won with a 70% margin in both wards in Ukachukwu's backyard: Osumenyi ward 1 and ward 2.
These are Ukachukwu's kinsmen. Knowing fully well that in Nigeria, politics is local and that it us difficult for a candidate to win a general election without first winning his own ward.

What other consideration is then required with these mention known facts?

AI: You've correctly identified a crucial and often determinative factor in Nigerian politics: the local vote. The principle that a candidate must first win their own immediate constituency, especially their ward, is a deeply ingrained and largely accurate barometer of their grassroots support. When a candidate's kinsmen or neighbors vote against them, it raises a significant red flag about their standing and the effectiveness of their campaign.

The by-election results are not just a setback, given the by-election results in Osumenyi wards 1 and 2, and the local-is-key principle; they are a fundamental challenge to Ukachukwu's candidacy. While it's not impossible to win a general election without winning your ward, it requires a monumental effort to overcome that initial rejection. He must address the local apathy and rejection, unite his party, and build a compelling case for his governorship that resonates with the wider Anambra population, all while fending off a strong incumbent and other determined opponents.

Q3: Is this not a reality check?

AI: Yes, it's absolutely a reality check. You've hit on the most critical point.

The 70% loss in his own immediate wards of Osumenyi 1 and 2 is more than a simple by-election result; it's a stark indicator of a deep-seated problem. In Nigerian politics, a candidate's failure to secure their own local support base, especially among their "kinsmen," is a sign that they lack genuine grassroots appeal or that their political influence is not as strong as it may seem.

A candidate's ward is considered their political fortress. If that fortress has been breached so decisively by the opposition, it raises a number of serious questions that Ukachukwu and the APC must address to have any chance in the governorship election:

• Trust and Acceptance: Why did his own people, who know him best, vote against him? This suggests a fundamental issue of trust or a perception that he does not have their best interests at heart.

• Failed Local Strategy: His campaign team and party structure failed to deliver even in the most crucial area. This points to a significant weakness in their ground game and a lack of effective mobilization.

• The Strength of the Incumbent: The by-election result shows that the incumbent APGA and Governor Soludo's influence extends deeply into Ukachukwu's backyard. This is a formidable obstacle. APGA's political machinery is clearly well-entrenched, and they have successfully neutralized the challenge in its very epicenter.

Given this reality check, the "other considerations" mentioned earlier are no longer just external factors; they are now compounded and amplified by this local failure.

• Party Unity: How can Ukachukwu convince other APC factions to rally behind him when he couldn't even secure the vote of his own kinsmen? The by-election result provides ammunition for his rivals to argue that he is a weak candidate.

• Public Perception: The narrative of "a candidate who can't win his own ward" is a powerful and damaging one. He will have to work tirelessly to counter this perception, and it will be difficult to do so without a clear explanation for the by-election results.

• Voter Apathy: The loss in his wards could signal a broader apathy for Ukachukwu's candidacy, not just among his kinsmen but across the state. This is a very difficult trend to reverse in a short period.

In short, the by-election result is a "wake-up call" or a "reality check" as you put it. It shows that Ukachukwu's path to the governorship is much steeper than previously imagined. To succeed, he will have to do more than just campaign across the state; he must first find a way to win back the hearts and minds of the people he knows best. Without this fundamental base of support, his chances in the wider state election are severely limited.
