Finding your Soul Mate is not enough, your weakness or their weakness can spoil everything because everything is corruptible as far as this planet is concerned.

That being said, I think the agreement for people to come and stay together as husband and wife should be flexible enough to accommodate an exit when this is no longer tenable as regards the weaknesses of the couple. Learn lessons and move on if that's best for all concerned.

Unfortunately No! Tinubu is winning the election.

The two voting super powers viz the SW and NW would hand him the victory. This is in view of the Labour Party weakening the possibility of PDP dethroning the APC. Analytically speaking, the LP will not win states beyond two while getting pockets of votes in each state of the federation. This is how they look:

PDP will go for the kill, they are the tigers.

Labour Party are the hyenas who will come in droves to snatch the kill from the PDP

APC being the apex predator will capitalize on this and clinch the SW and NW. They will win from the fallout between the LP and PDP.

Its a done deal.

What manner of mindset is Nigeria breeding??

He is improving his value and you don't think that is enough action? So you believe Nigeria can still afford ill-prepared minds at the helm of affairs after our recent choices of Presidents?

If we know he possesses the knowledge to solve critical problems in Nigeria, is the onus not on us to ensure he wins?

You forget it's an election to be determined by citizens and not a family decision in which he is the head of the family.

We would have concluded Obi knew what he was doing if he had engaged in this notorious venture a long time before now and taken his time. For me, this may be yet the climax of him "manifesting", after the knee-jerk departure from PDP and wanting to be president all of a sudden without the support of a fundamental voting structure.

Assetinvestor:
Arkwrite replied him diplomatically but within him, he knows that Sowore is a dunce for asking such stupid and irrelevant question. Dude has been frustrated that Nigerians didn't join him but has joined Obi in rallying for revolution.

Oga Asset sir, please when you cool down, I want you to honestly tell me if going to Egypt to understudy how things are done can be done in the face of election is rational.

Secondly, what would you have said if it was Tinubu or Atiku that did this. Study a whole system that took eons to create in 3 days.

One of the good men we never had because we do not deserve it.

matrix199:
...but they are winning the hearts of sensible Nigerians across the country who desire true change. Besides, election is not about the number of offices you have, nor will elections be held in parties' offices.


Let a younger and healthier person lead the country out from this current penury she is. Nigeria can be great again with the right leader. Peter Obi it is!

How many "sensible" Nigerians are there compared to the insensible ones?

Amumaigwe:
You are still playing politics. You think there is still any money left to share. Who cares if PDP is weakened? We want to make a statement by supporting Obi overwhelmingly irrespective of the out come. If he looses, and PDP or APC gains advantage and wins as a consequence of that, we still have lost nothing because both parties are evil. Our conscience will then be at peace that we at least tried to take back our country.
Who knows after another 8 years of ruin, your likes will wake up and do the do.

In you mind, after doing all this, youthink something will magically change the evil people into good abi? I do not have such time to spare. Obi was part of them only as recent as two months ago. Do you mean he became a saint all of a sudden these two months? The people in LP, are they saints? did they not just finish fighting for power in LP? Do you know what he offered the earlier people in LP to allow him run in this short notice?

A good workman will work with any tool and not blame his tools. PDP remains his best shot. A statement that doesn't win an election or make any impact, is that one statement?

Do you know what those panelists on TV do when they come and talk and talk each time Fulanis and bandits kill people but with no tangible action to stop it? They make statements! Useless statements with no impact. Enough is enough of useless statements, worse is the one that may span another 8 yrs!

I want to make an impact even with a party worse than PDP. After all, the people are what make a party good or bad and both Obi and the LP are not a saints. A party that cannot boast of a single state governor? Tah!

Omoslim26:
She should rather like any sane Nigerian stand with Peter Obi.
I don't understand what you mean by sheh you like absurdity,bcus no where in my post did I potray such a narrative
You sure se your sense no dey pain you sha

E fit dey pain me. On a serious note though, I am vying for Atiku because Obi is not going to carry the day and Atiku is a better chance at achieving unification of the country. An Obi or Tinubu win will see only accentuate the tribalism and hate between Igbos and Yorubas on and offline.

Igbos love Atiku, at least they did and accepted him until Obi came up. Atiku is loved by Yorubas as well. He is a unifier. Voting OBi who will end up losing will only weaken PDP and strengthen APC. By the end of the day, Obi voters would have voted in Tinubu. Get the real deal?

mycar:
Why should he go back, people are the ones that make up those political parties, political parties name don't make a nation, human beings make a nation. He needs not go back to PDP, at least, labour party is a national party

A political party is like a vehicle. Use the wrong one and it leaves you stranded in the bush. You will then say you "almost" reached your desitination. IN the game though, "almost" doesn't count.

PDP had the money, connection and crowd. LP cannot boast of this. Heck PDP has a superior team than Obi himself. There are hundreds of Obi and people better if you care to search around. Lets not get carried away by fancy please.

LP as we speak is built around a man that is not popular enough to carry the day. It would have been different if LP even boasts of a single state governor to start with.

Omoslim26:
She would not even consider such a calamitous agenda that would totally wreck whatever is left of the cracked up Country.

No, she will rather work with Tinubu than Atiku, sheh you like absurdity?

If I hear.

mycar:
Is he a regional leader because he is Igbo or what?,what about kwankwaso? The fact is that we can't continue to do the same thing and expect a different result. Nigeria is not running away, let at least give him chance, even if it is one term.

Kwankwaso is a regional leader to while Obi much as he looks and sounds good may not pull the vote up north and SW. This is the only problem with voting Obi. He should go back to the PDP and not be carried away by admiration for his intellect and whatnot on social media and even offline.

Obi is an 'almost' and "almost" doesn't win elections.

It will be toppled.

Omoslim26:
Ngozi will not desire to ruin her integrity by pallying with the criminal from Cameroon

Okay then, she will work with Tinubu

PDP will take any competition with this setup. Infact even Obi will want to be part of the team.

All this Obism simply makes sense on paper. Obi and Falana will pull the numbers with the educated/elite, these are not the set that decides election winners and it's only unfortunate.

This is the magic formation to topple Obi and Tinubu

Ixodes:
Men if Atiku pull out this card...he has my vote.

I pray he does this bro

sonature1:
I cannot argue with you.

It's not happening

I pray it does. I am all selfless, unemotional, and objective about this.

sonature1:
Okonjo-Iweala has never contested in any election in Nigeria.

Obasanjo brought to work in Nigeria.

She has returned to where she belongs.

Okonjo-Iweala is not a politician.

Chill bro. This combo seems to have hit a spot there and made you her 'do-not-do-politics adviser
I sense she is a threat to a certain candidate likely the Hen that will lay the golden egg in this movement

She actually politicked into that position she currently holds at the UN and that's a good way to start off politics having been "brought to work in Nigeria" before

Once again, lets have this dream come true. She is possibly the First Female President in the making

sonature1:
Stop sharing that nonsense.

Okonjo-Iweala is not a politician.

She's an internationally recognised technocrat.

I presume Obi started off as a businessman, Atiku as a customs officer, but here we are?

akanbiaa:
You are paid to argue and market Atiku as non Fulani so just continue since all the evidences you pretend to be blind to them and you shluof know that whether Fulani or not If you are destined to Lead you shall lead ,but a dishonest person that values peanuts over his integrity will never be satisfied.

Watch me support someone who stands a better chance at defeating APC.

You said he mentioned several being fulani and now you are giving me a random source.

Lol

akanbiaa:
Maybe you were misinformed , Chamba LGA is Ganye LGA , Mumuye LGA is Zing LGA (in Taraba State Jolly Nyame first Taraba State Governor LGA, Yorro is another predominant Mumuye LGA in Taraba State) and they all share borders with Jada LGA.

We want to see where he said he was Fulani

akanbiaa:
Atiku have never denied being a Fulani and he proudly flaunts it so why ate you trying hard to make him reject his tribe because Buhari that is outgoing is also Fulani ? Some of us personally know these people that you are trying to define.

I have never seen that instance. Can you provide proof?

[quote author= post=113655595]Slow and steady win the race, Obi will surprise many cynical minds.

Lalasticlala[/quote]I am an Obi cynic.

pacesetting:
So you want Okonjo to leave the juicy post at the United Nations to come to a dubious party as the VP of a failed country? Na wa oo.

Yes. She has had enough juice and l believe if she has an opportunity to leave juice-chasing for one of direct service to her people, she will take it.

akanbiaa:
His mother and father are indigenes of Jada LGA a Fulani LGA in Adamawa State.

Unfortunately, the LGA is dominated by Chamba, Mumuye and other tribes including Fulani. You find Fulanis literally everywhere in the north because they are nomads and do sometimes settle in certain areas. Is he Fulani? No.

seunmsg:
Desperation to see Tinubu defeated is what is responsible for you to be pushing for an Atiku/NOI ticket. Like dude, are you that desperate? NOI is currently the DG of WTO, why bring her so low as to want her to be a spare tyre to a well documented rogue like Atiku? Why are you guys like this? Can’t you guys learn from how Yemi Osinbajo was sidelined?

It’s such a shame that you Igbos accused Fulanis of every known crime in Nigeria since 2015 and now that we have a southerner as as the candidate of the ruling, you’re shamelessly pushing for the continuation of Fulani rule out of hatred for the SW.

Will Atiku do anything different from Buhari when it comes to fighting herdsmen, bandits and other terrorists of Northern extraction? Is it not better for us to support a strong leader with national appeal and structure like Tinubu? What exactly does Atiku has to offer that makes him better than Tinubu?

Funny you are mentioning "documented rogue" in a contest that involves Tinubu.

Did you say bring her low? Are you aware we took her there and Home is where she be,ongs and should be serving if nt for the system? Yes, Atiku will do more than different because even his tribe suffers at the hand of the Fulanis as in kidnapping and such.

Atiku boasts of a better party and team comparably. He as a person is a unifier other than Tinubu who is linked with Anti Igboism. If not for Obi, Atiku use to be the darling of Igbos and is married to a Yoruba. This is not to mean I do not have a grouse with him, but then who told you there is a perfect person or a politician for that matter?

Atiku has the unifying charisma that is likable to both Yorubas and Igbos. Presently there is this beef between the Yoruba and Igbo and I do not see Tinubu making that easy, in fact that beef is going to be accentuated with a Tinubu presidency even judging by your introductory commment and that of Seunmsg. This must be stopped.
