Kwankwaso that is already talking to Wike.

Wike will bring huge votes from Rivers State and some votes in Bayelsa. Fayose who is very close to Wike was also in the meeting. If Fayose aligns, then there will be some votes coming from Ekiti.

Kwankwaso is bigger than Peter Obi His party has more structure and certainly better funded. There will be no merger between NNPP and LP.

Firstly, when has a Muslim or Christian becoming president helped Nigerian masses achieve anything. I am a Christian from the southwest living in Lagos and we have conquered the religious squabbles that have brought turmoil to other regions in the south and made some places unliveable in the north. Just like Tinubu who is a Muslim with a Christian wife, many families in the southwest also have the same scenario and most of the children are allowed to pick the religion they decide to worship or practice. Fashola the former governor of Lagos is a Muslim man who has a Christian wife, and to add to the purity of their union they are both married to just one wife. My father was a Christian and my step mom is a Muslim, do i love my siblings any lesser i don't think so. My best friend is a Muslim, whenever sallah time comes we Christian's are the ones going house to house to chop our own meat. As soon as Christmas or Easter comes around our Muslim friends and family are celebrating it with us. What happened in Owo, Ondo was pure wickedness and trust me the perpetrators will be judged by God Almighty for their evil deeds. Why did a group of armed men kill members of a catholic church mostly populated by ibo's in a southwest town a day before the APC primaries, which had a chance of fielding a popular southern Muslim as its candidate. Only God can answer that question, but what i know is had that incident happened in any other region in the south, a counter attack would have happened in a nearby mosque and a religious war would have broke out. To attest to the love shared by the Muslims and Christians in the southwest the Imams and various members of different mosques went to the church to show their support and to voice their anger over this needless deaths in God's house.

As to the issue of muslim- muslim ticket i don't see anything wrong with it, because in an election you have to win before you can make changes. You have to align and re-align to put the best possible scenario to achieve your goal.
In the south you only have Muslims in the southwest and maybe Auchi, Edo state in the south south. So a Muslim is a minority in the south and in the north out of the 19 governors only three are Christians. So with the religious implications in the north, the northern Christian's are a minority. Elections are meant to be won, so how does the apc candidate who happens to be a minority yoruba Muslim team up with a minority northern Christian whose party apc has only one of the three christian governors in the north. Plateau is the only apc state in the north with a Christian governor and don't forget Plateau state is north central and the party chairman is also from north central. He either picks his vp from northeast atiku's zone or northwest that has the highest votes. As a team player he asked the north to pick his vp, because whoever becomes vp will be the most powerful politician in the north.

All i will say is that tolerance is all that matters, since 1999 when the presidency or the vice presidency went to the north, the presidency or vice went to the majority southern Christians. In all that time the minority southern Muslims have never complained, the last time it happened in an election was during the time of abiola. The northern Christians need to find a unifier in the north, the same way the minority southern Muslims have been able to find a unifier in the south.

[b]The Peter Obi Effect?

This will be a short one. Everyone is screaming Peter Obi, but it's sheer ignorance for Nigerians to once again be carried away with the sob story of how poverty shaped me, or how humble I am, better yet, I'm so wealthy but believe in living a frugal life.

The same story, but different tellers and different scenarios. I'm Igbo from Anambra, Orumba North Local Government, and it amazes me how gullible the general public is.

The same Peter Obi, rejected by Anambra people twice because of how he enriched himself and cronies like Okey Ezeibe. Sold off Premier Lager Beer owned by Anambra state, and replaced it with his Hero drink? Why didn't he get investors for Premier Lager? The same Peter who didn't pay teachers, but rather held onto funds so he could boast of how much he saved for the state, while the people suffered?

We Igbos are ripe for a candidate I agree, but would sell a candidate twice rejected for his untruthfullness, etc so we fulfil our dream of an Igbo president? Big mistake! He was rejected by the same Alaba Igbo traders and trade fair Igbo traders during the last election! But, because we desperately need an Igbo president, we are selling the same Peter as a Saint? Just because yorubas and other tribes don't know the true him!

The Peter Obi die hards, one question. If he was so good, why was he constantly rejected by his own people, through his chosen candidates for state elections? If he performed so well, apart from his so called balance sheet, wouldn't we trust his candidates to continue his good works?Who rejects good for unknown? Why did we have a lot of migration from the east to south during his administration? The so called miracle worker. Atiku lost the last election because Igbos know Peter for who he really is! I do not have a candidate, but anything But Peter!

This is just a younger Igbo version of Buhari. We are selling Peter to other gullible tribes to fulfill our dreams. Presently, I'm yet to see a genuine Igbo candidate for presidency. They can't even run their states. They are among the worst performing governors! You just watch and see. Remember, Igbos can sell ice to an Eskimo.

Part 2 soon.

Thanks for your time.[/b]

Throwback:
Yes remind us again that a Biafra led by the terrorist IPOB will not tolerate any civilised debate or any challenge to the authority of the supreme leader.

Continue begging the world for your human rights that you do not intend to accord others. You are not civilise, when we see an unbiased mind, we will tolerate it but for now you are trying to defend your meal ticket

North Korea will be a relatively democratic nation compared to an IPOB governed Biafra.

You are wailing, infact you guys are wailing.

The funniest part those who are going to confirm her are Apc, Pdp, Southern/Northern politicians, Muslims/Christians.

Leave matter for mathias.

Not happy about her selection but I can't do anything about it so I moved...

Ipob miscreant, this shouldn't have rose your BP

Monogamy:
Wait, which of the truth have you stand on on this thread? Where is the fake story? Have you been to Joe's social media pages to check is this is fake or real?

Why do you people always feel aggressive, shifting from post to pillar whenever facts are presented about the activities/attitudes of Ipob members?

So my conversation with gidgiddy to back up Joe's claim is also fake right?

You are loosing it more on NL.. Aswaer

Hiss!

A whole wise man, smartest man and supreme leader is now regarded as been foolish....Lol

Indeed he has been foolish, abusive and myopic all along.

When I looked at nnamdi kanu tyranny, and remembering Robert Gabriel Mugabe I wept...

It is very sad that nnamdi kanu won't be remembered fondily by history.

Even without gaining power he became so tyrannical, voodooish, abusive and even went as far as side lining his comrade at arms in the struggle....Greediness and foolishness as uche mefor said brought his ruin

Monogamy:


Gidgiddy, the problem I have with you is when someone ask you direct question, you always find a way of twisting them.

Let me try again today with just one simple question.

Did Kanu travel to Kenya with commercial plane or private jet?
