Not at all otherwise they wouldnt have lost so much.

The reality and the level of support as evidenced by the majority win from ACN is that they are mostly hated by the people. Thats the result of the numerical analysis. How you drew an opposite conclusion I dont know.

Nobody is saying they dont have any supporters but rest assured that will wither away once the ACN governments start up. Of course ACN can still f[i].uck[/i] themselves up by performing poorly but definitely PDP is in for a Bashing in the southwest.


Akala is definitely on his way out in spite of all the hooligans he has amassed. Time to reclaim the pride of Oyo state (we are not slaves to brigands).

As a lesson: Senator Kamoru Adedibu just recieved a whipping in spite of his dad's machine still being on ground.


Tinubu You overrate Tinubu, we dont give a damn about him.

The people of the southwest may respect Fashola but they dont like Tinubu.

Thats a fact.

Ask anyone outside Lagos and Ogun (where you people are mesmerized by closeness). We dont see anything spectacular about him. Given a straight contest between Fashola and Him for anything in the SW, He will lose by a massive margin.

The beauty of Democracy - when votes actually counts - Sensible Majorities determine the fate of the rest.

Lagosboy:

I hate to say this but i want to face the reality on ground. This election is the first election in 8 years int he SW that truly reflects the will of the people and enables us to see the level of support PDP has in the zone.

Oyo state: PDP won 1 senate slot and majority of the HOR seats which is 5 , (ACN had 4 and Accord party 4) Dapo Lam Adesina even lost this election.

For example
Ayo Adeseun of ACN 105, 975
Jumoke Akinjide of PDP 78643


Ogun state : PDP lost all the senatorial seats with very tight margins which is worrisome to me.
OGUN EAST

ACN - Sefiu Kaka 76,543
PDP - Mohammed Odunowo - 52,613
PPN - Abiodun Odusanya 46,148


OGUN WEST

ACN - Odunsi Babalola 61,326
PDP - Babatunde Fadun 59,949
PPN - Waliu Taiwo 45,246


Osun state : PDP lost all the senatorial seats but still had about 40% of the votes counted.

Ondo state : ACN had no impact, PDP lost by very tight margins , Segun Agagu and Bode olajumoke were narrowly defeated by the LP.

in Lagos, PDP even pulled some weight and had around 25-30% of the total votes, in some areas it had up to 40% of the votes.

The question we should be asking ourselves is why on earth will PDP still be enjoying the kind of support it does in the SW. Wonderful ACN has won majority but the large proportion of support PDP has in the zone shows greater challenges lie ahead and any lapse on the path of the victors in the next 4 years means the return of PDP to power. I personally think the Tinubu factor is holding a large chunk of people in the SW from voting ACN. 

In Oyo state, the governorship race will be a very tight one between Ladoja, Ajimobi and Akala. It is a 3 horse race and either of these guys has a realistic chance of wining it. Hate or like it the support for PDP in Oyo state is huge and i dont want to think Akala might win this electin . God forbid!

Man mi, all this your thread aimed at maligning Tinubu ,while disguised as something else, is not fooling anyone. Only a dreamer would think , In Nigeria's politics of money and inducement, that the PDP can be defeated without a fight. Why not start a thread about the other regions where the PDP totally had its way totally when Nairalanders from that region have shouted , non-stop, "time to vote the PDP out" ? That is a more required thread IMO.

Have you not noticed how many , apart from SW folks, have gone silent on Nairaland? It is because it is now sinking in for some folks that their region , barring a miracle, is in for another round of PDP misrule !!!! Most have realised that they miscalculated in their belief that the oppressors of 12 years will be voted out unanimously by those on the ground!!! They are in a pensive mood and I feel for them.

Once , the ACN had only one Governor in the SW region. That has now been totally reversed and gains made in legislative representation. The overwhelming defeat of the PDP is the big picture and not the margin of defeat. Spare a though for those who have to put up with the PDP for anothe 4 years when you, me and all others have stated, non-stop, that "we must vote out the PDP".

blacksta:

^^^

Lol

whether marginal or not defeat na defeat ( positive governance will win the remaining to the side of good) - The stronghold of evil PDP will be broken over THE SW region - how long can the likes of AKala , OGD continue with impunity - One thing that stands however how long evil last , one day the truth will trumiph . PDP for the last 12 years have offered no good but retrogression .

When votes actually counts the likes pf AKala, ogd, oyinola, bankole, obj, omisore and adebidu all have no legs to stand on.

Gbawe:

Some Nairalanders are still to upset too speak because they are unhappy with PDP dominance in their region and some folks from the SW , who should be happy, are still strutinising margins of victory ? Lol indeed

Another thing is if all these PDP people vote GEJ next week then it seems we are going to have another 4 years of GEJ. This is looking like the bareface truth. If GEJ garners up to 40% of the votes in the SW I dont know i will do except to put our hands up and accept PDP has won this presidential election.

Even if the election goes to a run off and ACN supports Buhari, these 40-45% of SW PDP people are enough to titlt the election in GEJs favour.

I am 100% for Buhari but these are handwritings on the wall which we have to address.

babasoty:

[b]man mi your sounding so delusional, what makes you think everything garbed in the toga of PDP is corrupt or inept--- [/b]you need to open your eyes and see clearly that what you accuse PDP of is slowly creeping into your much hyped ACN if not already in it even, a party that can boast of the likes of george akume and his ilk has no moral right to point fingers at PDP.

you need to open your eyes and see clearly that what you accuse PDP of is slowly creeping into your much hyped ACN [/b]if not already in it even

sbeezy8:

acn will never support buhari for what?

cpc did such a terrible job they dont deserve anything.

jason123:

I am also for Buhari but I know lots of people that will be voting for GEJ especially after knowing how free and fair the election was in the SW.

Lagosboy:

This is my worry, honestly.

GEJ appointed JEGA and the credit is not for GEJ IMO. It should be for JEGA , if JEGA was not strong he would have danced to the tunes of some PDP guys. Dont tell me guys like Anenih and OBJ would not have looked for ways to rig this election as usual.

I Think your being unfair. The only thing any objective Nigerian should judge the ACN with is the performance of its representatives in public office. Fashola is the best Governor in Nigeria, Oshiomhole is doing well, Aregbesola has hit the ground running and Fayemi has had an assured start !!! That is the truth of affair on the ground. Not one out of all the Governors the ACN has provided is a crass, looting and misruling misfit in the mould of the many supplied bythe PDP !!! Shall we count how many PDP Governors are pi.ss poor out of the many Governors they have provided Nigeria with? Probably much quicker to just count the few PDP governors who are performing rather than list the many who are not !!!!!!! Just give ACN the benefit of the doubt , going by what we can all see that gives us hope , and be fair in your talk . That is all.

jason123:

Bro, to be honest, they both deserve the credit. Gej deserves it because he did not get involved. I know lots of people now that are going the GEJ way. Even my family that were going to vote for Buhari are now for GEJ. In lagos and the whole of SW, people are going the GEJ way. I see a resounding defeat for Buhari in the SW,SS and SE. Although, I am very happy that their votes is no based on the stupi.d southern or regional sentiment but on a fair assessment of GEJ.
