bros PDP is a dead Party.

It's not the political party you know before.

They have lost more states to the Rilling part as we speak. So which structure are we talking about
Pdp is the only party in every lg and every ward in this country.....I never supported them since yar adua but the have the most robust political structure in place all that's needed is just to oil it

Really?
But you are quite sure countless ppl are very angry with Tunibu. His policies brought them a lot of harship. And you still believe he will win 2027. In my opinion if election will be held today Tunibu will be humbled. But he still have a chance to right the damages he causes. Rigging?Forget about it.
Get this,Nigerian elections are still far from perfect and politicians know this....votes are even easier to buy now than in 2015....many people making noise here won't even vote.....funny thing is you guys really underestimate this tinubu guy and what he is capable of.

why are you countering yourself? Wike controls it and will be working for Tinubu so why give Obi the platform?
Well it can still work to divide the votes.
Your last paragraph exactly a d obi will get better mileage with pdp.

Wike will still frustrate Obi the same way he frustrated Atiku.
No, Wike needs to still keep odp relevant and he needs a counter weight against the coalition which obi can provide,he has achieved his aim of getting atiku out.

Tinubu own was different, there was no crisis in his party where governors are careful.
PDP is in deep mess, Governors are wighung their options ryt now, to remain in PDP, go to APC or join coalition.
I am sure many of them will join
PDP govs have already distanced themselves from any coalition,you are not abreast with emerging political trends . Atiku lost control of pdp and has been turned into an idp courtesy of Wike... The scenarios are totally different from 2013. When aoc was formed.

OredoPikin:
INEC gave Obi 12 states without a governor or single elected official under LP.
Same numbers of states as Tinubu of APC and Atiku of PDP
If u add rivers state APC actually won 13 states without a governor or elected public office holder in LP and Tinubu with over 20 governors in APC only won 11 states
I can feel your fear
The coalition is here
And who told you obi has a place in this coalition of jokers....the pdp is his best bet right now ...... don't be deceived by the feat if obi in 2023,times have changed and the dynamics are different,those who control the state at the moment knows how to check obi I. due time.

Guess what 2027 will proof that everyone has just one vote including the governors Nigerians just want APC out just like they did to GEJ in 2014 grin

that's not how they join coalition.
Those people will form the coalition and the party, before governors will defect.
The coming months will be galore
Tinubu brought all his govs from day one with rochas and almakura,saraki,kwakwanso and lamido all from day 1....atiku's govs have already rejected the idea of any coalition and would have nothing to do with it.

You na SA now.
Wike agenda na to make PDP useless no matter who goes there.
Politics is deeper than that,PDP can't be killed....obi will be lured to pdp,wike's aim is to drive atiku out and ensure a southerner gets the ticket.....wiké still needs PDP alive as plañ b

Basically, only PDP members who are no longer relevant politically are joining Atiku in his dead coalition. Not even a single incumbent governor is going to ADC with him.

As it stands, El-Rufai, Amaechi and Peter Obi may not even join the coalition. El-Rufai and Amaechi will float ADA while Peter will go solo again.
The pdp ticket is now available for obi and I see him getting it.....he will be lured and if I were him,I would go for it.....PDP would give obi what lp couldn't

The PDP has collapsed.


What remains with Wike is merely a carcass, which he uses however he pleases. He may even shove it down his drunken throat, for all we care. He can zone the presidential ticket of that carcass to himself and run against his D-Lord. Nigerians are indifferent.

We are moving forward to rescue this country from the grip of the notorious D-Lord, whose leadership has brought nothing but pain, anguish, hunger, and starvation since he took office.
PDP is going to poach obi to come get it's ticket,that's the only way they can revive their dieing legacy.....PDP would still give obi what lo couldn't....

You need to read the history of American politics. Even at home here Buhari is a lesson. He cried on national TV and at the end,... Merger / coalition bailed him out. If he's destined to, nothing will stop him .
Not with this nonperforming administration which is to their advantage
Do you remember how many govs the coalition brought in for Buhari at the time ...the pdp govs are not having anything to do with atiku come 2027 and have openly distanced themselves,how do you intend to achieve anything without govs not even 1.

DOA!! with no state gov,where will he get the resources to run campaign,Okowa was his saving grace last time

Wike finally drive atiku out of pdp,now is the best time for obi to move over to pdp, yesterday's meeting had Wike written all over it and atiku got the message,Wike controls all the structures now.....obi should move to pdp as it would give him what labour couldn't.

That’s why there’s a coalition coming. So that areas where Obidients can’t reach, the rest of the members of the coalition will police there.

Obidients will no longer do the job alone in 2027. So, don’t bank on it.
In your dreams....2027 isn't going to be a 2 horse race,take that to the bank.....obi would decide to go it alone as his support base would be disaligned if he decides to run with atiku and those charlatans in that coalition knows they can't pitch a xtian southerner against a Muslim one who is even incumbent.,...oga the odds are stacked against the coalition...they cannot find an all size fits all arrangement and that's their bane.

I didnt say wipe out - significant reduction is all that was needed. Also payment for subsidy was done by government so its very different from narcotics which are not paid for by the government. When you control the payment over something, you are Lord and Master and can easily deal with those who are corrupt if you want to - especially if you are president and have the entire law enforcement and security apparatus at your fingertips!

Look, subsidy was less than N300 Billion at a pont not that long ago. For it to balloon to over N7 Trillion was black magic and a seriosu govt could address that. So no one should say BAT was bold. He was cowardly. He went after the vulnerable ony.
The truth is there was no money to keep paying subsidy and this govt in their wisdom thought it best to end it and stop borrowing for that.....bring it to a minimum u say,u really underestimate the capacity of Nigerians to steal.....why get head ache over a problem you can just end and forget about.

It could always be reduced to the minimum with political will. Your hero claimed to be bold by removing it. That was cowardly. Because he could only face the poor and deal ruthlessly with them. He could not face the wealthy corrupt and deal ruthlessly with them.
Which would you choose as a leader if not the easier option ..that's smart if I must say ....for dangote to come out and cry about how formidable the oil cabal is,then you know it's no easy feat.i just gave you an instance of America not being able to wipe out narcotics snuggling despite their level of sophistication.

Investors do not need your forex. They are actually bringing forex into the system. More liquidity for the govt does not indicate more FDI. FDI is primarily private sector driven.
While expansion in govt activities can lead to GDP growth, you need to understand that what drives FDI is basically local demand and purchasing power. Nigeria has local demand in terms of population but the trouble is the purchasing pwoer has plummeted over the years as the naira was devalued.
I asked you for evidence because TOTAL just invested $6bn in Angola last year. If that had come to Nigeria, you won't be telling this story but will be touting that as one of the successes of this govt
How do you expand the economy without govt spending.....most govts often have to spend their way out if recession.....civil servants get paid, contractors get paid thus creating employment,increased investment in social welfare such as hand outs and grants and many more ways govt can expand money supply but you need the production to match it to avoid inflation.

Forex liquidity is am important factor in FDI attraction,how do you want investors to retrieve and relocate invested capital,this was a major problem that caused low FDI in the Buhari years.

Nigeria had a large population but very low on per capita....we need to increase capacity and get money flowing in the economy and we are just about decontracting the recession we have suffered majorly during the Buhari years and this is majorly as a result of the under utilised economic potentials we have failed to harness which this govt is trying it's best to open up.

Nigeria alone got about $8 b in oil and gas investments in the last year and it's seeking to become the oil and gas hub in Africa,this is huge as it portends huge potential for the economy.

In all of your permutations, you didn’t factor in the hunger in the land and the general disenchantment with Tinubu.

Oh! That doesn’t matter abi?

And hey, Obi’s political stock hasn’t changed one bit.
There has always been hunger in the land.....Buhari won 2nd term with hunger and insecurity pervading the land.....votes are even easier to buy now than it was in 2015.....forget all the obidients noise in the urban centers,the real magic happens in the rural far to reach areas,how would obidients counter vote buying and under age voting in far away Katsina or Kano or deep in cross rivers jungles.

Nigerian politics is still majorly driven by the elites and they always have a say over the masses that does the voting......APC was able to proof that with Buhari in 2015 and tinubu had the majority elite consensus in 23.

How do you now things would have been worse. The problem with the subsidy regime was not the subsidy itself but the governmental corruption in the management of it. That is what should have been rooted out.
How? Something 5 successive govts were unable to do...the best thing was to end it and stop the sleaze.... almighty America hasn't been able to stop narcotics snuggling despite fighting it for several decades....how do you want to stop people especially Nigerians not to steal.

What is the impact of highest crude price on FDI? Do you know what FDI means?
Can you show with verifiable facts that there is dwindling investment in oil sector all over the world?
What is the cause of the divestment? Why is it happening under your APC?
Lol. Tax reform will double GDP. I really don't know what shite you guys are smoking. But it is darn strong
High crude prices mean more liquidity for the govt and more Forex for the markets,investors find that very attractive.

If govts make more monies from tax reforms,it makes them more liquid and this leads to an expansion in the economy through more govt spending this would affect GDP growth.

You can argue all you can go check oil and gas investments in the last decade and compare to 2 decades before....you would see the difference.

Beyond the smiley, all I see is palpable fear. The only remaining base of Tinubu will be half of the Southwest. A Tsunami is coming!
Mention one prominent SW politician you have seen in their coalition talks.....no Yoruba man at this time would leave tinubu to vote obi or atiku just as no igbo would leave obi....tribalism would also be a factor,you must reckon that and the Yoruba votes is quite sizeable compared to Igbos....atiku also has his NE and tinubu would still bite deeply into that as he did in 2023.. obi won't be much of a factor outside the SE except maybe Abuja and some states in SS but can't be same as 2023.hre would still have the govs,Wike, akpabio and militants to contend with.
