Our politicians are very immature ,like him or hate him tinubu is far more intelligent thank over 90% of our opposition figures . Very soon ,instead of selling themselves to the Masses and telling the masses why they should vote for them ,I am very sure they will spend financial resources and precious time abusing each other att the campaign thereby making the masses see the ruling party as the only sensible party talking sense. They should focus on the people ,tell them your plans and why they should stand by you . If tinubu was to ibe in the opposition now ,that is what he will be doing

This guy is still going to defect to APC in the nearest future especially if APC wins again. Has anyone noticed that he has stopped criticisng APC àand has focused mainly on the opposition figures

i really want gej to contest , when there are many strong contenders, rigging becomes very difficult , and votes are easily broken. apc with their bad results will really have a tough time getting the amount of votes they got the last time ,

They should just say they want to increase electricity tarrifs . All these excuses aren't new to Nigerians

IGBOPROMISE1:
I think their confidence is coming from the absolute faith they have in their rigging capabilities! The farce that passed for primaries that they conducted over the weekend is just a test-run on how they will use the weaponisation of poverty to compromise the process on election day! And don’t forget THEY are in control of the instruments of coercion and law-and-order, so who is left to checkmate any financial crimes on election day?

Honestly you are right but please don forget one fact, we have never had it so bad like this before in the history of This nation . Look at what is happening in Ogbomosho,the people there are lamenting badly now . Rigging won't be easy in 2027

DomPerignon:
What if I tell you that Amaechi will get the ADC ticket and that it will be an all southern affair.

With this in mind, who do you think will win the north?

The main game is not for one party to win one region or all but the main am for no party to have controlling share or votes . It wil.bw very good for our democracy. Let every zone and region votes be broken into piece

whatever the case , i want more formidable candidates to emerge , if gej enters the race ,it will be very good . then apc will know they have a lot of work to do . with 3 strong candidates from the south and atiku plus adc breaking the northern votes , apc will be given a good run for their money

most likely that church is situated near a bush

i dont think these people understand the situation of things on ground or with the masses,people are hungry and angry , even the president has lost the followership of his yoruba tribe people , go to the streets in the south west and hear peoples comments , tinub will definitely not get up to the amount of votes he got the last time , and to cap it all he has a very very formidable opponent who has the massive nigerian youth behind him . rigging wont work like it did the last time

i dont think these people understand the situation of things on ground or with the masses . and i am very sure it is all these kind of mumu talks they are talking into tinubu head . ok oo . we shall see

very good development , the more the merrier , let them break all the votes , more strong political figures shold joi the race and pick their forms

the first tear or two in fish farming is for experience and training , you will find out that most advice given may not work on your own farm so you will have to devise your own methods of doing it in order to be making profit .
another aspect is the marketing , that one or two year will enable you study your location and market , you will be able to have your own clients

it will be very difficult o but not impossible ,

Pious101:
irrespective, Tinibu would still win either by crook or any other means

it wil actually make things difficult for apc , people are thinking just one way that apc votes will remain intact , infact as at now apc is more weaker than it was in 2023 , their popularity has nosedived , with the entrant of near strong candidates , both apc votes and opposition parties votes keep decreasing

Pious101:
See as Jona won spoil the small reputation when remain for am if this story na true

desmond will want to use emotional blackmail to say he was cheated , i wont be surorised if he suddenly becomes a political activist

i stilll dont know what this tinubu goverment want to campaign on . the message that nigerians are suffering and that it is the price to pay while they keep looting wont go down well with people

Burob:
Dude, outgoing Governor Seyi Makinde is a nobody in SW politics.

He becomes completely irrelevant come May 29th 2027, he cannot even pick his own successor in Oyo state, he is a sitting ducking governor, that is just quacking to let others know that he is still sitting in the pond.

Time will tell. Let's wait and see

this is what happens when you feel too comfortable in a particular position , you are at the mercy of the system . this guy should have built his own structures or even aspire to move higher in his political career

leave their country for them , people wont listen , when they start macheting and cutting them down , then they will start rushing to the airports and be crying and disturbing God . these people have given enough warnings , if in retaliation you too want to react , then let your government send them out of your own country too.

honestly i am praying for gej to also contest , if apc thinkks it is only the opposition votes that will broken to pieces then i think they better have a rethink , because every party will have a share from another votes .

WhizdomXX:
Fct is now counted as a State according to Supreme court. If the APC get 25% even in 25 states and the other contestants do not, it automatically has a place in the runoff with the candidate with the most votes. And again the same rule will apply. Opposition must coalesce to win laslas.

seyi is very smart. There are two factions of pdp in oyo state , there is the seyi makinde faction and the other faction been sponsored by wike , if seyi leave pdp totally , he risks the fg and wike propping up a candidate from pdp to challenge apm, this may work well against seyi . but as long as he stays in pdp and keeps telling people that pdp candidate is the one of apm , he has virtually closed any surprise package from wike faction , now the wike faction cant sell pdp form , they cant conduct primaries , everyone is waiting for seyi to give clear instructions on which party to buy their forms .

yes apc has the structure to get 25% in all states but they still need to have a majority , no matter how small and LETS NOT FORGET THE REQUIREMENT IS NOT 25% IN ALL STATES , IT IS ACTUALLY 25% IN TWO THIRDS OF ALL STATES, WHICH TRANSLATES TO 24 STATES PLUS ABUJA , this is very achievable for both obi and atiku .
seyi is not even thinkig of that , his whole concentration is on oyo state

WhizdomXX:
Then the strategy has to be to get to a runoff because this way, Tinubu will still likely get the 25% requirements in 25 states and I don't see any others doing that now.

bros , you dont get it , seyi is not winning the presidential election , this political move is not for him to win the presidential , this political move is for him to control and be the godfather of oyo state politics .it is far bigger than a senatorial seat. he wants to be the one to be calling the shots , if he is able to pull it off he will be the major king maker in oyo state like saraki was in kwara state . he wants his new party to have all the seats , people in that state love him , secondly if the election goes into a runoff or second round , he will be the one to dictate where the votes in oyo state gos , dont be surprised that even apc and tinubu may be forced to negotiate with him . this is a far bigger political project than a senatorial seat

Burob:
Governor Okowa played this kind of nonsense politics with Abubakar Atiku in 2023, today he is a member of the APC.

More so Makinde an out going governor does not have the funds to finance a meaningful presidential campaign structure across the federation.

He should run for the senate seat instead.

opalu:
Okay good. Obi 2027 is a sure

He knows he can't win ,but he will break the votes . He can't allow APC to WI oyo state ,the only way to stop that is by he himself been on the ballot . People love him in oyo state . . Which means any party he belongs to ,he will use his charisma and personality to make sure voters vote for his party in all elective positions available . Tinub DD the same thing too in 2003 against obj .,reason why tinubu was the only remaining AD governor standing at the end of 2003 elections , as it is now ,AC has lost oyo state in the next presidential, the key winners are likely to be obi and seyi . And we shouldn't underestimate atiku ADC too ,if they get cleared. THIS IS TE INLY WAY TO DEFEAT TINUBU AND APC ,BREAK TE VOTES UNTO PIECES NOT ENEOUGH FOR APC TO WIN

No matter how apc tries to downplay tis act by makinde ,the truth is it wil rattle them , both for presidential and governorship elections. APC and tinubu should forget getting over 25% votes in the presidential in oyo state most especially if makinde contests the Presidential elections

i like kwankwanso , he is very intelligent political strategist , he knows his weakness and strong points

he cant , he will definitely lose the presidential , but the game is not to win but to consolidate his power and political structure in the state , same thing tinubu did then in 2003 . no mater what seyi will win 45/50 percent of votes in oyo state both pressidential and governorship . he is positioning himself as a political godfather in oyo state politicos. this is what peter obi should have done

Akpakomiza2:
What if he loses all

this means that oyo state is out of apc hands in 2027 presidential election ,this is the best political move . now he will contest for presidential , he knows he will lose bbut he will wn his state , his party will win senatorial and others , that will secure his political future . tinubu did the same thing in 2003



,

Don't know why people think APC has a fixed voting base? If gej contest he wil definitely take out of APC votes as well as the opposition too. And in fact it is very very risky for APC and tinubu to allow more than 3 strong candidates on the ballot ,the moment we have 5 strong candidates then it a very obvious that either we go second round of voting . I prefer we have more than 4 strong candidates . Let the votes be apt into bits and one e

i have since come to realize that there is nothing call love , marriage na scam . the only reason why a woman chose a man is because that was her best choice at that time . the best freedom one can have os to always have it at the back of ones mond that anyone can mess up at any time .

ANOTHER LOAN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

An opposition party that keeps complaining daily about a ruling party influence over its members is not fit to be called leading opposition party and neither fit to take control of government.
