Okay, your Tinubu intends to use state apparatus to win re-election? I'm glad even his die-hard fans are coming to terms with the fact that he has no realistic pathway to victory. Tinubu and his state apparatus will be resisted across the entire North and in the East. He's free to rig the Southsouth. They appear docile but their numbers won't get Tinubu across.

Chidibe212:
Same thing I said earlier in one of my posts and I was tagged anti Obidient and not being igbo.

Let Atiku do his 4 years, reform INEC to make our votes count then Obi enters.

If it's ok for Obi to be deputy for Atiku it's still fine as long as the agreement is on paper and upheld that Atiku does only one term and hand over to Obi ( with the Northerners backing and also with people who wants to witness Obi's presidency). However it will be better another Southerner to deputize Atiku other than Obi in my own opinion o so that Atiku will have his own presidency and Obi will have his own presidency as well.

This is STRATEGY and NOT EMOTIONS

Even if Obi contest alone under LP, or even with the backing of Atiku under ADC, Obi will loose especially under this TINUBU.

And even if Atiku looses in 2027 without Obi's backing with votes, he still has a stronger chance/opportunity in 2031 and another time Obi or a Southerner will have a chance again is in 2039.

It's only the North that can fight head on against this TINUBU

Thanks OP you said the outright truth void of emotions most especially when you said ATiku with backing of CPC bloc will flood the core north and those votes there will be hardest to rig "cos they will fight for it unlike if it is OBi as the flagbearer.
It is simple no one fights for another man's right especially Nigerians. North will fight for what is their own! (Don't blame them)"

The North with their numbers and nerve will fight (even physically) for their own with this hunger as a weapon unlike the South particularly the eastern part

Infact let me tell you what will happen in 2027. Tinubu will loose but he will not agree to step aside like GEJ. They will be bloodshed and crisis which the North can easily champion alongside hungry southerners that wants Tinubu out. The military will come in and re-conduct a fresh election and Atiku will win afterwards.

jmoore:
All these blackmail won't work. Southeast will not vote for Atiku.

In fact, if Obi doesn't win in 2027, SE will start boycotting future presidential elections..

Stop telling us what we already know. You were not appointed to tell Nigerians all the problems with corrupt practices going on in the country but to fix it.

El Rufai's calculation was to take over from Tinubu when power returns to the North in 2031 but his fellow Northerners who are more brilliant than he is quickly caught off his wings.

An inconsequential member, not a ward Chairman, nor councilor, an ordinary member is resigning and that is news to some people. Mtcheeeeeeeeeeew!

ADC website is struggling to take in over 10 million PDP , LP, and APC members seeking to join ADC.

9jatriot:
But how did a first-time senator who did not even resume with her mates, meaning she has spent less than 2 years in the senate become a committee chairman in the first place over more experienced peers?

Didijiji:

2 heavy leadership failures

God1000:
We need another president in 2027, there's no place in our constitution that says a president or governor must do two terms, tinubu has done his best and his best is not good enough

helinues:
Bro, you don't even know how to lie. Is it the duty of a senator to build roads. Hahaha

See the way I am laughing here. These are the people telling Yayi to carry go..

helinues:
You are talking of who can beat him with the analysis I made above. How can he win if the odds above are against him?

deeptechcool:
Where are the questions to be answered? I followed a link here.

Meanwhile, Awori people won't align with the Egbas if the governorship position is not ceded to them this time. You can take that to the bank. Nobody , I repeat, no body can beat Yayi presently in Ogun West.

FINAL STATEMENT ON THE SUPREME COURT JUDGEMENT IN THE EDO GOVERNORSHIP ELECTION PETITION
10TH JULY, 2025

My dear people of Edo State,

Today, the Supreme Court has ruled.

Though I accept the finality of its judgment, I do not and cannot pretend that what was delivered amounts to justice.

What happened in the September 2024 Governorship Election was not a contest. It was a robbery. Coordinated. Deliberate. And now, tragically validated by the highest court in the land. While I will not and can not obstruct any judicial pronouncement, no matter how flawed, I must never fear to speak truth to power.

Like you, I feel a deep sense of betrayal. Not just by those who rigged the process, but by the very institutions we trusted to protect our democracy. You came out in hope. You voted for competence, for progress, for prosperity. And now, we are told that your voice does not matter. That your freely given mandate can be trampled without consequence.

I feel your pain. I share your anger. And I will never forget your courage.

To every young person who saw in this moment the birth of a new Edo. To every elder who longed to see our state rise again. To every woman and man who prayed, campaigned, and voted. We may not have won the office, but we won something greater. We found one another. We discovered our collective strength.

Though this painful chapter closes today, our beautiful story does not end. The struggle to reclaim the soul of our beloved state continues.

Yes, dark days may lie ahead. The weight of this illegitimacy will, unfortunately, echo beyond the halls of the Supreme Court. I fear Edo will feel it in the absence of leadership, in the poverty of policy, and in the daily suffering of her people.

But we are neither a fearful nor a broken people. We may be wounded. But all wounds heal.

So let this be our vow. We will not retreat. We will not be silenced. And we will never forget.

To those who now hold power undeserved, lead with humility. Govern with conscience. History sees what the courts may not. And one day, it will deliver its own verdict.

God bless you.
God bless Edo State.
And God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Your fraudulent friend who you and him used the so called Aloghodaro to steal our resources and decieved you to contest should be the channels to your frustrations. Edo is rising for good. You promised to sue Oshiomohole when he accused you for defrauding Edo through plan well and up till now, no case. Like Asue like obi.

omenka:
I saw one Obidient wrote somewhere that Atiku should take a vice position to Obi. Comment left me wondering what those people smoke in they camp.

The mere fact that there wasn't any crisis in the party when the APC chairman Ganduje resigned is giving them shivers.

immaculatesense:
Did Ganduje complain to you that he has been thrown under the bus?
Has Kwankwaso had a meeting with you that he is having a second thought?
Why cry more than the bereaved?

No job in the country, those that can provide for themselves are being arrested.

Kenneth Okonkwo is erroneously equating Nollywood with politics.


It's obvious his beef with PO is getting the better of him.


For him to even say he would support a northern candidate, Atiku in particular, in the 2027 presidential election, is an indication of someone cutting off his nose in other to spite his face.

Undeniably, he is entitled to support whoever he prefers. It's his right.

However, he should be reminded that the right of Southerners to complete their eight years in office is not negotiable.



After all, one good turn, they say, deserves another.



Besides, no vacancy exists in Aso Villa.



Tinubu till May 28, 2031!

I tire for this Kenneth okoko sef person with labour party without any governor or structure back up obi win 9 states give that person with Tinubu one on one weda he no go spoil him face before dem announce final results this Kenneth okoko is dull

I feel sorry for any masters holder that takes the job. That person will become a punching bag for Peller's insecurities. Everyday insults.

Reno sha dey burst obi lies up and down. wahala wahala

slivertongue:
Baba is right but the coalition has designed their path. Obi can win but a team player doesn't say it's my turn but makes sacrifices. He works with all and for the good of all

casualobserver:
Obasanjo has never favored any Yoruba that will outshine him. He worked against Awolow, he worked against Abiola and he worked against Tinubu.

His biggest fear is that another Yoruba man will outshine him and he knows Tinubu has already put him in the dust in just 2 yrs. He knows if Tinubu spends 8 yrs nobody will remember him.

As usual ibos never know when they are being used!

Show some real self confidence as a people and stop looking for validation. To start with come out with full chest to say you are contesting for 8 years. No tribe will run for presidency in this country and say they will only spend 4 years. If Atiku can have the audacity to run after Buhari just finished 8yrs, why are you who have never been president afraid to say you want 8 yrs too?

It is in things like these you know a people with pride and self esteem not looking for fake compliments and shouting ibokwenu up and down.

The most detribalized Yorubas leaders I still respect till date are the late Pa Ayo Adebanjo and Obasanjo.
