Tunjibalogun:
Good one Wike. Ayu must go

Whether Wike likes it or not, Ayu will not resign. Atiku is the next president.

alsudan:
Very useless party doing in house fighting 3 weeks before start of campaigns. worst opposition ever.

Imagine being stuck with this rubbish PDP as the only hope to wrestle power from the demonic APC.

Thank God for Peter Obi and Labour Party.

Disagreement is not peculiar to any party. So stop amplifying PDP situation. OBI WILL NOT BE PRESIDENT IN 2023. Let it sink into the consciousness of you and your likes of day dreamers.

Kindly dig in deep and add more "qualifications" but OBI WILL NOT BE PRESIDENT in 2023. Please quote me on this.

Obidient4life2:
Obi joined Twitter in 2018 and Atiku joined Twitter in 2010. After 8 more years come back and give us the latest figure.

Shallow thinking. Commanding followership does not depend on how long you've been on social media. It's a factor of your influence and admiration. You can hook on to Twitter today and generate unprecedented discipleship depending on how influential you're. Try to open your mind and learn

IamAtikulate:

You mean an account that was registered in 2018 to campaign for Atiku is an impostor?



Anyway, I don't have your time till next year. In 2007 when Atiku campaigned with his structure, he polled 2 million.

He polled 11 million in 2019 because of Peter Obi and Obi has left with chunk of that voters.

FACT

Who told you Atuku's 11 million votes were attributable to Peter Obi. The figure will even double in 2023 because Buhari is not contesting. We'll see next year.

princepeter566:
Who is more loved

Do you follow someone you don't love or admire on social media?

IamAtikulate:

We in PDP even know PO has clearer path to the presidency than Atiku.

Waziri will fail woefully in the South, except in SW where we expect him to battle Tinubu for Yoruba voters, clearing the way for PO to win.

In the NW, there is a Kwankwanso who we are expecting to inflict a mortal blow.

We are projecting Waziri to clear NE except Borno and Yobe, which are Tinubu's to lose.

Obi will clear Taraba.

NC is the battle ground and Waziri will struggle there. Plateau, Benue and FCT are all PO to lose.

Waziri will win Niger, while Kwara will go to Tinubu. Kogi will be shared between Atiku and Tinubu while Nasarawa is between the three candidates and we project PO to win with small margin.

It's obvious you're an impostor. I won't waste too much time on frivolities but Atiku is bound to win 4 of the 6 geopolitical zones conveniently. Aside polling the highest number of votes, he's the only one that would secure 25% in all the States including FCT. Mark this down and remind me in 2023.

OnyeAshuaUru:
But Peter Obi is the next President of Nigeria.
Not Atiku

Please stop the joke. I am sure your instinct is talking you the reverse is the case. Atiku is the next president. Just mark this down.

Felimax:


Calm down till proper campaign begins. I believe PDP to an extent because PDP is objective.

At least they are the devils I understand to a large extent. I hate it a lot when Nigerians hype their political candidate.

PDP, Atiku and Okowa-the best and most ideal combination for Nigeria's progress. This is not an exaggeration.

Atiku, not Peter Obi has highest number of followers on social media
August 3, 2022

For the most obvious reasons, the social media have been in favour of the presidential candidate of Labour Party, Peter Obi and his Obi-dient supporters as the 2023 presidential race hots up online.

Going by engagements, Peter Obi is a force to reckon with and he’s adjudged in certain quarters to have dominated dominated the social media space, however, findings reveals that he (Obi) does not have the highest number of followers on social media.

As against the reports making rounds in the media that Obi has the largest social media followership, here is the standing of the three major presidential candidates for the 2023 election and their precise number of followers as obtained from three popular social media platforms (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram).

Abubakar Atiku

Atiku, Datti-Baba Ahmed, others lament Naira depreciation as Senate summons CBN governor
Vanguard observed that presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP, Atiku Abubakar has the highest number of followers on Twitter with 4.4 million followers; 146 following; and 7468 tweets as of Wednesday August, 3, 2023.

He has 1.5m and 448k on Facebook and Instagram respectively.

Atiku, who joined Twitter in August 2010 identifies as Atiku Abubakar with the verified handle, @atiku.

His bio reads, “Former Vice President of Nigeria. Waziri Adamawa, Businessman, Father and Philanthropist. PDP Presidential Candidate, 2023.”

Atiku, who enjoys the largest followership more than any of the presidential candidate is heading for the 2023 race after two failed attempts at the Nigeria’s presidency in 2007 and 2019 respectively.

Mr. Peter Obi
The Labour Party, LP presidential candidate, Peter Obi the second candidate with highest followers on Twitter.

Obi, joined Twitter in October 2018, has a total of 1.7 million followers, with 43 following.

He has 400k and 246k on Facebook and Instagram respectively.

The Labour Party candidate consistently enjoy Twitter trend with his much-touted Obi-dient followership base who are adamant that he will emerge as Nigeria’s next president, banking on a social media political structure and campaign.

He identifies as Peter Obi with the verified handle, @PeterObi, while his bio reads, “Former Governor, Anambra State. Tweets by him are signed -PO.”

Obi, a two-term former governor of Anambra State is contesting for the topmost political office in Nigeria for the first time.

The Labour Party candidate had previous run for for presidency as running mate to Atiku in 2019, but lost to President Muhammadu Buhari of the the ruling All Progressive Congress, APC.

In 2022, Obi defected to Labour Party shortly before the PDP’s presidential primary when it became obvious he would not fly the presidential ticket of the party.

Bola Tinubu

Presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu comes third in the ranking of presidential candidates with highest followers.

Tinubu joined Twitter in February 2012. His verified account identifies as Bola Ahmed Tinubu with the handle, @officialABAT.

With 1.3M followers and 35 following, his bio reads, “Official handle of APC Presidential Candidate ‘23. Fmr Governor of Lagos State, Nigeria. Progressive Democrat, Advocate of True Federalism & Nationalist.

Tinubu, a two-term former governor of Lagos State is one of the front runner presidential candidates for the 2023 election.

Tinubu has 140k and 114k on Facebook and Instagram respectively.

lamido is a coward.osibanjo has not invested upto 30k naira in apc why are u comparing him to wike that bankrolled pdp for years.are u sick?do you know the meaning of to whom much is given,much is expected?

Sometimes there's no difference between people like you and toddlers. Did Wike "bankroll" PDP with his personal money? Which party gave Wike the platform to become who he is today? Is he bigger than Atiku or PDP as a party?
Wike is only enjoying the paraphernalia of office as a sitting governor, he would know the scores by the time he leaves his seat.
With or without Wike, Atiku is the next president of Nigeria.

Horrendous gibberish from Tinubu's fake news purveyor. Here's Bayo Onanuga, the once revered publisher of The News and Tempo magazines, hitherto respected media practitioner who has now become a shadow of himself.

Can you believe this Tinubu campaign's spokesperson who is struggling like a toddler to cover up the Fake Bishops debacle, now having the gut to tackle Atiku instead of repackaging his paymaster's bruised and failed project.

In a saner clime, this OP (Bayo Onanuga) should go into hiding instead of engaging in disingenuous macabre dance.

ATIKU'S TIME IS NOW AND MILLIONS OF BAYO ONANUGA AND HIS APC SHAMELESS JOURNEYMEN CAN'T STOP IT.

ATIKU IS THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA.

toprealman:

Not just too much, nothing smart or diplomatic in his comments.

People like you have problems of complex and dishonesty. Do you want Atiku to tell lies and be "diplomatic" to Nigerian the same way APC did in 2015 and 2019?

lincs25:
Somebody that did a failed power sector privatization, today in Nigeria we are paying bogus light bill for darkness. Atiku and others are the owners of the company.

Stop spewing rubbish. If this was true why didn't Buhari revoke the contracts and the licences from him.

LEGALSER:


Just imagine? Wike has taken note of this statement and that reconciliation will not work. He will simply sit down and watch how Okowa will deliver Atiku is a clown.

I think you are the clown. Did Atiku win southsouth because of Wike in 2019? Atiku and PDP only secured roughly 400,000 votes frow Rivers in the last election.

Gunayo:
Don't mind him. He will soon see the result of his comments during the presidential election in South South especially Rivers State.

Nothing will happen. Atiku will win southsouth with or without Wike.

Lurdmax10:
I hope this statement seats well with Wike.

How could anyone say Okowa can deliver over Wike?

Do an analytical comparison of Wike and Okowa's intelligience and temprament, you will pick the later.

Maxymilliano:

I find this demeaning and disrespect to Gov. Wike

Atiku's response only succeeded in exposing is level of intelligence in managing tricky situation as this. his response was supposed to douse the current situation and calm frey nerves but this type of reckless statement above can only aggravate the cracks in the party

Nonsense. With your level of i"ntelligience", you obviously know little about Nigerian politics politcs. Atiku only laid bare the obvious.

Totilopussylick:
Atiku also noted that he was driven by passion to serve the country. “I’m driven by passion and desire to give back to this country, I’m driven by the passion to give back to this country because of what the country has done for me.

After you and Obasanjo ruined Nigerians future For your own selfish interests.

You are now driven by passion to come back for more. You and APC will fail woefully .

Can you tell us how Obasanjo and Atiku ruined Nigeria.

Jennifer663:
Atiku is talking too

What has Obi been doing? Atiku has not even started talking. Wait for mother of talks.

God1000:
I don't see PDP winning the southeast and South south this time because of Peter Obi

You are a learner in Nigerian politics. PDP WILL WIN SOUTH SOUTH AND PICK SIZEABLE VOTES NEEDED TO WIN THE PRESIDENCY FROM THE SOUTH EAST IN 2023. Qoute me.

Nexus25:


You said APC won all Ife axis in 2018, innit?

Why shifting the goalpost?

I meant APC VS PDP.

Nexus25:
RESULT: Ward 4, Unit 1, Osogbo
PDP 348
APC 162
LP 3.

This is Osogbo. At this point, we may start congratulating Adeleke on his inevitable victory.

You gat it.

Nexus25:


2018 when Omisore was on the ballot?

Do you know what you're typing at all?

The emphasy is on Omisore's influence. APC can't win Ife without his weight.

seunmsg:


Ife has never been APC stronghold. This is the very first time in over 15 years that APC is in contention to win Ife because of the support of Omisore.

You're a choric liar. APC won in all IFE zones in 2018. Stop lying on nairaland.

porthouse7:
first of all go get a better phone, I recommend any pixel phone for photography...this pics are eyesore

Yeah. I apologised for the quality.

TrackerXL:
PDP de do rally your dead brain foolish oloriburuku father de have nightmare about Tinubu. Is it Tinubu that declared that your cursed household must perish from wretchedness n foolishness.

You can do better without cursing. Ok?

Peacecore:
Na lie. APC can still pull d same crowd in Enugu n Adamawa. That doesn't mean it will win those states. U ppl should stop making case where there's none. The same way someone brought his analysis the other day giving Oyo state and Ondo to LP and said that Lagos is too close to call between APC n LP. We should start being rational n pragmatic n avoid viewing political events through broken lens so that we can get the real picture which will corrolate to the unfolding Modus vivendi devoid of dismal pysma from your opposition. My nimbled thought though.

Adeleke pulled the same crowd in 2018.

Dapson73:



The election result will clearly thrash your opinion.

If the election is not rigged or monitised, Adeleke is good to go.

Peacecore:
I can see. This is a presidential campaign.

Sometimes you can predict the look of Sunday from the outlook of Saturday. Hope you got the drift.

citygarden:
Let wait till Saturday, how many of the crowd have pvc?

But they would all have PVC if this was an OBI crowd. You see ya life.

Prince111111:
they can dream on

Yeah
