You made a valid point Atiku himself have not said he promised wike the VP position, ignore what a confused man in fayose was quoted to have said, fayose is after his belly,wike bought #40m form for him to act as if he's Contesting, fayose loyalty is his belly.. only if Atiku or any of his reliable media aide comes out and say Atiku promised him the VP slot then I will believe,other than that ignore fayose ...quote author=Shikamaru1 post=114459887]Why did Atiku promise to make him the VP after the primaries? Why did he set up a committee for the VP selection since he had a candidate in mind? Why did he choose a governor that hosted a meeting last year, demanding for the presidency to return to the south, only to renege on that agreement by supporting and funding Atiku in the primaries? That's wike's bone of contention, there are two factions in PDP, Wike and Atiku's faction, if Atiku was truly a unifier as is been touted in the media, he'd have picked a candidate from the other faction(not necessarily Governor Wike) or a neutral person.

Atiku is being controlled by the Notherners in PDP(Tambuwal, sule lamido, Babangida Aliyu, some retired generals) do you think he'll act in the interest of the nation if he eventually wins? I don't know about you, but the red flags are glaring..[/quote]

Buhari case is different don't forget,Govs off Ebonyi, abia n enugu intentionally delivered 25% to APC out of their non acceptability of obi seen as a stranger in the party...tinubu 25% might be far fetched in all honesty..tinubu is more despised than buhari in the south east honestly...even in ebonyi wt an APC gov I doubt if he will see 25% honestly...even in the south south d only state as things stand he will see reasonable votes is Edo due to oshiomole factor in Edo north

helinues:
Atiku and Obi would share Pdp's votes together. Tinubu is not focusing on winning SE, 25% is enough. If upon how Buhari is hated and yet he got 25% from SE, Tinubu should do too

Your last words have been getting nothing in return..that's it they have every right to be aggrieved,take it or leave it a wike ticket as candidate of PDP would have been vehemently rejected by majority of Easterners not the abia gov who's following him like a P.A..the thing is obi is currently making waves in the east but February is still a long way.. majority of Easterners will prefer Atiku to tinubu one million times... funny enough majority of ndigbo will likely prefer Atiku over wike no jokes

helinues:
The truth is SE have not been playing their National Politics right.

With the current events, they have indirectly schemed themselves out of the 2 major political party in Nigeria.

SE used to give Pdp standby votes but they have been getting almost nothing in return

This is Nigeria one can never say never,if he wins Atiku might likely go for a 2nd term.. power intoxicate,as it stands now if south south bring more votes than south east in this coming election to Atiku, stakeholders form the south south will most likely lay a claim that we brought something more than the south east hence after Atiku they should take over... this are likely scenarios to play out,S/west PDP might also lay a claim to the ticket and say we brought more vote to the table than S/east PDP..power is not Given it's taken

helinues:
Atiku can't go for second term for some reasons.. Age, Health and Pdp North must have completed the remaining 4 years of Late Yaradua.

That's the miscalculation Obi made. He should have remained in Pdp and get the Vice then hoping to get the party ticket easily by 2027

You made a very valid point in your last line the dangerous trajectory we are setting for ourselves is supposing Atiku wins and does it's 8 yes.. PDP will likely go south, APC will likely field a northerner because they will say we want to win not zoning....truth be said wike Made a lot of enemies through his arrogant and uncouth nature... believe u me he Neglected the GOD factor and relied so much on rivers resources, sentiment aside if I am Atiku I won't choose him being an ex VP myself he knew how he gave president obj problem then..it's about compatibility honestly..wike let's not make mockery of ourselves it's not a PRESIDENTIAL material,even if the South want a unanimous candidate wike won't be in the top 5 going by antecedent, conduct and character not MONEY!!!!..

Shikamaru1:
His fellow governors are not in support of him because they are envious of his confidence and clout. He's not the only governor with money in the south, what about the delta and Akwa Ibom state governors?

Mind you, his allies cuts across North and south, just this evening, the PDP chairman in Kano held a press conference, demanding for the National chairman resignation. He has the resources to wreck the PDP boat if they don't appeal to him, it'll be very easy to turn the southerners against the PDP especially as Obi is on the ballot and a Notherner just completed an 8 years tenure.

How many governors in Nigeria have fellow governors as loyalists? You saidvhe bankrolled the party from 2015, dont you he should be compensated? Even if his fellow southern governors wont support him, ordinary people in the south are sympathetic to his plight especially as Tambuwal stepped down for Atiku, that was parochialism and tribalism in play, only hare brained southerners will support Atiku, if he wins, when his tenure elapses, APC will also field à Notherner because from their permutations 'A southerner can't win a national election' ..

The main thing is for the PDP to unite,as for wike he is not the first rivers Governor to be intoxicated by state resources from H.E Peter odili to Amaechi to him no difference... as it stands today no single governor in wike Geo zone is with him...let's call a spade a Spade wike major political structure is rivers State resources honestly... look at the GOVERNOR in his camp abia,enugu,oyo,benue...wike became so powerful in PDP because he literally bankrolled the party from Ali modu sheriff wahala regime from 2015 till date hence it's mindset the party presidential ticket should be given to him

Deep down that dude Will vote Atiku.. tinubu outburst on how he made buhari president"singlehandedly"& buhari crying on national TV has not been forgotten up north. Tinubu might only do well in the S/West if care is not taken

alsudan:
Bashir is in Gandollar’s camp, and they are ones deceiving Tinubu with some phantom 2 million Kano votes and Northern Votes.

The real Northern voters don’t want to hear anything Tinubu or APC.

Druggie will be the first Presidential Candidate of a major political party to lose heavily in 5 out of the 6 zones.

Hope he has dropped his court case against adeleke, are u sure he's not running a parallel campaign kind of,then go to court If & when imole wins to lay claim to the ticket of the PDP

Honestly... it can be done not everyone is happy with gburugburu administration, considering the way chimaroke nnamani handpicked peter MBA after he allegedly offered #6b for the ticket WT the help of nnamani..if there's any state in the east PDP will loose in the GOVERNORSHIP and I hope they do it will be ABIA

Ddokie:
this is good news for isi uzo and Enugu in general.

If only our people will mobilize and chase out pdp

Mr Chijioke Edeoga on Saturday emerged the new gubernatorial candidate of Labour Party (LP) replacing the earlier candidate, Mr Casmir Agbo...for those in 042 his campaign poster is visible everywhere en route PDP primaries but a "poster less" candidate emerged

Wike Never wan free Farah dagogo oo lol..

Salutations lovelies who else have constantly noticed the thread about the print media especially on weekends headline {Saturday & Sunday}. it's hinged on three things namely but not limited to:
*Figment of writer's imagination
*Attractive/sensational headline to attract would be viewers/readers/buyers
*Also I hear say/them say kind of reportage..ever since gov ortom outburst it has been massaged heavily by media outlets who has literally fed on it..
Let's GOD'S Perfect will happen in 2023.

Patrick hembe benue lp guber candidate,a former house of rep member who defected from APC to pick the ticket

Atiku contested against Buhari,I repeat against Buhari.. its a matter of time..by GOD'S grace and mercy we will witness the election..I respect your opinion..one love

princdebola201:
thrash
atiku lost his polling unit to Buhari in adamawa. Atiku won Adamawa with less than 60k votes. Buhari won Atiku will over 900k votes in kastina.

We cant ignore the governors because They own state structure,atiku, tinubu,obi cant be present in 36states of the federation, so it is the gov that is going to work for emergence of his party

Atiku cant win any zone in north.
And his block votes in south has been eaten in SS/SE by peter obi.
No 40% votes in south west this time around cos Tinubu will deliver sw with landslide.

Atiku knows he stands no chance in 2023 thats why he is not taking it too serious

Against an almighty buhari in the north and an incumbent gov in Adamawa Atiku defeated buhari.. also in taraba.. contesting against a bola tinubu who's literally not a match for Atiku up north let's be realistic Atiku will floor tinubu handsdown.ignore all this APC GOVERNOR'S this n that ...south east & south has 11 state combined.. take it or leave it tinubu won't win one out of 11 South South/south east.. forget the media noise Atiku will sweep the 6 south south State..all PDP GOVERNOR'S in d zone are with okowa except wike as of now..in the south east take it or leave it obi can't win the 5 state at least 2/3/4...in the south west PDP will gather reasonable votes as compared to tinubu in sout South and south east... Atiku will sweep North East except borno n yobe depending on APC running mate

Ddokie:
Atiku is getting nothing significant amongst igbos in general, be it those in the SE or around Nigeria. In the SS perhaps. It depends on the strength of the Peter Obi campaign in the SS region.

Atiku has never won the North East, save for adamawa, and I don't think he will win it now. Even if he does, it isn't going to be landslide. It will be split in 4 place same with the North West. APC structure will take their own share, Kwankwaso will take his own share, Atiku will take his own share, and PO will take his own share (mostly the northern Christians). The percentages of the shares will differ, but whoever wins it wouldn't be having anything beyond 40% of the votes except there are realignments before the election.

Lets be clear, PDP has never won an election without the full support of the SE,SS, Middlebelt, and 40% of Lagos. If Atiku doesn't corner these areas, he is going nowhere.

Now tell me how possible it is for him to get it with the emergence of PO in labor, the anger of the likes of wike, fayose, the confusion of Ortom, the anger in delta PDP, and other issues plaguing PDP.

If elections where to be held today, Tinubu is the winner.

But my honest hope and prayer is that the OBI campaign will gain steam, as we are all working towards, and cause the greatest upset yet.

Beer parlor analysis everywhere...it's quite unfortunate....

...elder orubebe oo lol he will loose his ward 3 burutu LGA and burutu as a whole to PDP both federal & state GOVERNORSHIP election with a wide margin...they are just claiming"loyalty" to wike when in actual realities they are all loyal to Rivers State largesse/resources not necessarily wike

Lol Sarcasm!!

Social media hallucinations and serial delusions go make person dey laff sef from ppl who are not on ground in Delta State politics...omo agege will NOT win more than 3/4 LGA out of 25 LGA on the election day... Delta north and south will be swept by PDP..osanebi will do well in ndokwa east but pdp will win the LGA...where vote will be majorly divided is Delta Central... ibori $ his boys will likely work against okowa but even at that sheriff will likely win...ogboru/omo agege/sheriff oberovweri will divide central(urhobo) vote

PDP deputy GOVERNORSHIP candidate is Monday onyeme from ndokwa west

666Advocate:
Its OK.

But Delta is PDP State.
I just hope that PDP pick Ijaw as Deputy Governor of Delta State again.

After all Ijaw had straight 23 years of democracy as Deputy Governor in Rivers State before all parties finally zoned their tickets to Ijaw as we speak.

Chai osanebi dey try to empower ppl for him constituency when he was in Delta State House of assembly, PDP deputy GOVERNORSHIP candidate is from ndokwa west in sir Monday onyeme..even if ibori and his camp opt for omo agege,e go hard PDP will still win ..agege will likely win only ughelli north & south,uvwie..ogboru of apga should win ethiope east & udu, ethiope west depend on ibori factor but PDP strong here.. Sherriff will win okpe,sapele...all permutations for Delta Central though.. PDP should clear South & north

The Grand plan by Nasir isiaka,akinlade and other top politician from ogun west senatorial district is to stop Sen olamilekan from Lagos from emerging as senator for ogun west.. which as being described as some as insulting from Lagos to ogun

Engr nana is a philanthropist I hope PDP loses abia GOVERNORSHIP election, ikonne is an unpopular candidate very unpopular and the failure of a governor is in far away turkey following wike like house boy exhibiting loyalty to rivers State resources not wike

Aside gov makinde of Oyo that performed & has political value.. gov of Abia& enugu are Disasters!!! PDP will loose abia governorship election..enugu has no viable opposition honestly most ppl are tired of chimaroke nnamani and his boys...gov ortom of benue is 50/50 in terms of performance...wike uncouth utterances and unpresidential behavior are his greatest enemies ..this are the 4 governor's loyal to rivers State resources not wike, including the one who sold out ekiti pdp

Aside gov makinde of Oyo that performed & has political value.. gov of Abia& enugu are Disasters!!! PDP will loose abia governorship election..enugu has no viable opposition honestly most ppl are tired of chimaroke nnamani and his boys...gov ortom of benue is 50/50 in terms of performance...wike uncouth utterances and unpresidential behavior are his greatest enemies

Fayose didn't even show up at his polling unit in afao ekiti to vote his handpicked candidate,segun Oni would have gone neck to neck with APC if not defeat them... fayose will ultimately announce his support for tinubu. .all ekiti handpicked PDP candidate for house of reps no one is popular.... only senator Olujimi who stood her ground n retained ekiti South ticket the rest are work over

Tareq1105:
I don't think so. Don't forget that Oni defected to APC and and back to PDP again. Fayose was not even present at the defection rally. So, from Day One, he wasn't welcomed.

It's obvious fayose intentionally fielded a weak candidate instead of oni to make it easier for APC & eventually port to APC..he intentionally sold ekiti pdp out...wike bought form for fayose so no surprises...

Gov obaseki of Edo not gov okowa..wike hegemony is restricted to rivers State..he has no influence at all in Delta State politics take it to the bank

Felixamos:
I hate supporting politicians but okowa is feather weight where wike is. Is it the same okowa that came begging Wike to help him win governorship election in his state that you want to compare with Wike? C'mon now

na if wike go gree release am... releasing dagogo by wike now might not be in the cards for him.. dagogo will spoil work for wike,fubara in rivers State...fubara candidate for pdp no get levels for ijaw speaking Ethnic nationality compared to dagogo ex militant

Please is there any other south South I'm not aware of..with all due respect if Peter obi wins any single state in the south south State of rivers,Edo, Delta, bayelsa,Akwa ibom & cross Rivers I will be surprised honestly..he will see votes in those regions no doubt but to win a single state in the south south will be an uphill task let's not make mockery of ourselves

How come no verified news media is airing this including nation's newspaper and TVC news in particular not to talk of other meida outlet,not forgetting aregbesola name wasn't included in the campaign council for osun,even moshood adeoti from Iwo is yet to be seen in any of the gov campaign alongside the TOP faction of aregbesola
