But you didn't see imperative of placing competence in governance above regional sentiment when you were shouting Emi lokan undecided


Well, I'm glad the spirit of 1993 didn't end well.
It didn't end well because it was a muslim/muslim ticket? Is this what you're saying and you're just happy the will of the people (muslims and christians) was scuttled because a christian was not on the ticket?
PoliticsRe: Probable Outcome Of 2023 Presidential Elections by OsunOriginal: 9:26am On Jul 10, 2022
kenedy175:
Before I start, this prediction was made based on the ethnoreligious diversity of Nigeria and our bias, the performance of the ruling party over 7 years, and the current situation of the country among other factors.

Please, this is for open-minded people. You can decide to make contributions or adjustments.

Nigeria has never been more politically aware and divided based on religion and tribe until this current dispensation. So all that happened In 1993 will not happen today.

Let's start from the NE. This will be between Atiku and Tinubu. Atiku will win this zone. Core Northerners never forget their own, they are giving their votes to Atiku. Buhari isn't in the picture anymore, and the north is tired of the misrule by the current APC government. Tinubu will get some votes here with Kwankwaso. The only way Tinubu may get more votes here is if he picks someone like Kashim shettima as his running mate. But irrespective of that, Atiku will still win the NE. Therefore, it's going to be PDP 50%, APC 30%, NNPP 15%, and LP 5%.

Coming to the NW where we have the Kwankwasiya movement. This is the only zone where NNPP is likely to do better because of Kwankwaso. But still, PDP and APC will pull some strings here. If Kwankwaso remains In the race which I doubt he will, NNPP will do well. It's going to be NNPP 40%, PDP 25%, APC 25%, and LP 5%.

The NC has always been a battleground as we have a lot of swinging states. The four major parties contesting the 2023 presidential election will test their popularity here. I can't see who takes it here. However, this is how I think it will end up PDP 30%, APC 30%, LP 30%, NNPP 10%.

Coming to the SE, this is where LP will be banking. With the recent happenings, Obi is certainly having this zone on lockdown. The only disruption here will be if IPOB decides to hamper the voting process on that day with violence. One might think some states in the SE are governed by PDP and APC governors. This won't affect the outcome. The outcome will be, LP 70%, PDP 20%, and APC 10%.

The SS will be no different from the SE. The voting pattern will be similar. The 2 zones have always been in tandem when it comes to who they vote for in recent times. Though, PDP may do better in this zone. This is what I think the outcome will be, LP 55%, PDP 30%, APC 15%.

Now we move on to the SW where another battle will likely take place. This is the home of Tinubu. However, other parties will come out with something tangible here. APC 40%, LP 30%, PDP 30%.

In the end, PDP will take NE and NC. APC will take SW and NC. LP will take SE, SS, and NC. NNPP will take NW.

Putting all this into perspective, this election will be between PDP and LP. There was a reason why APC wanted the consensus candidate to be Lawan who's from the NE. He would have stood a better chance than Tinubu in trying to win votes for the party. It would have been a lot easier for APC to now pick a southern Christian candidate as his running mate. But now, it's a lot more difficult for APC. And a Muslim Muslim ticket won't do well for them.

Please feel free to voice out your opinion without insults. Let's discuss
Here is another social media analyst on the loose.

Let's start from the NW, what impact did kwankwaso make in the previous elections in NW generally? In 2019, the APC won in NW, getting 72% of the votes while Kwakwanso/PDP only managed to get 27% of the votes. If Kwakwanso and his PDP then struggled to get 27% of the votes, what has changed that would give him (NNPP alone) 40% even when PDP has its own presidential candidate? Your reasoning that the north would only vote for a northerner is pedestrian, to say the least. So in your mind, an El-Rufai (a politician) would tell his supporters to vote for NNPP or PDP because the person contesting under his party is a Yoruba man? What can be more foolish than this? You need to understand politics first before you can make any projections.

Other projections you made are as wrong as the first one because the premise on which you built them is amateurish.
PoliticsMuslim Vs Christian Leaders - The Case Of Asiwaju by OsunOriginal(op): 9:00am On Jul 10, 2022
We need to begin to ask ourselves the tough questions. Bola Ahmed is a muslim who is married to a christian wife and has supported and brought to the limelight many christians in politics and outside of politics. An example is the current vice president who benefited tremendously in life from Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He is vice president today with the support of God (first), and that of Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Without this, nobody would have known him outside of the academia. Many other christians are political associates of the man. No wonder he was able to easily win the hearts of 1,271 APC delegates (muslims and christians) who voted for him as the APC presidential flag bearer in the just concluded primaries, despite other top contenders being christians. The result of the primaries gave me hope that despite what some bigots want us to believe, muslims and christians can and are working together for the common good.

With this lesson, I want to ask the following questions.

a) why is it so difficult for some christian leaders to have muslims around them and give them all the support and equal right? For example, who are the close associates of VP Osibanjo? How many notable muslims are among them? Who are the associates of Peter Obi? How many muslims are among them?

b) why do some of us turn religion into a weapon to be used against others in politics, industry, and even in our private lives?

c) why must the next person be of your religion before you can open the door of your heart to the person? This applies to both muslims and christians.

We should begin to ask ourselves these questions and may be someday, the transformation will begin.

PoliticsThe 3 Categories Of People Supporting Peter Obi by OsunOriginal(op): 10:55pm On Jul 03, 2022
Any keen follower of the build-up to the 2023 general elections should be familiar with the name Peter Obi, one of the contenders for the highest office in the land. Peter Obi is reputed for his large followership, especially on social media. If you conduct any poll on any of the social media platforms, Peter Obi will most likely win. On the ground, in many parts of the country (SW, NC, NE, NW, SS), he would most likely come last. His party, for example, scored only 195 votes in the recent Ekiti gubernatorial election.

The purpose of this short write-up is to dissect Obi's followership (combined - both on social media and on the ground) and show the categories of people making up his support base. Basically, I have seen 3 categories of people.

Category 1:
These are ethnic supporters of Peter Obi who would rather die than support any candidate from a tribe other than theirs. They see the election in their mind as a fight for ethnic supremacy of the Igbo race but would come out to say their support for Obi is because the man is a saint and has a magic wand to turn things around in Nigeria. These guys have never supported and won't support anything coming from their SW neighbors - this has been demonstrated since democracy commenced again in 1999. They supported OBJ against the candidate of the SW, Olu Falae. They supported Jonathan and then Atiku, all against the SW's choice of Buhari/Osinbajo. This group represents 90% of Obi supporters - they are on all social media platforms including Nairaland.

Category 2:
The second category is made up of religious bigots who see nothing good in any religion that is not Christianity. To them, they should not be governed by practitioners of any other religion - it is a threat to their religion and a threat to their existence. Therefore, they will not vote for a muslim presidential candidate talkless of a muslim/muslim ticket which the APC may likely field. They have members in pockets here and there across the country - SW, NC, NW, and part of NE. They make up about 5% of Obi's supporters. Note these are not the ethnic supporters even though the ethnic supporters are also majorly christians.

Category 3:
This group has its membership drawn from the supporters of the current VP who just lost at the APC convention to his political benefactor, Tinubu. They constitute about 5% of Obi's supporters and mostly from SW. When you see a south westerner supporting Obi, he/she belongs to either category 2 or 3.

CheapHomes1:
Kindly avail yourself the screenshots below. Meanwhile,

There's nothing you have typed that has negated the information in my post which you quoted. You only ended up proving me right.

The problem is that many Tinubu urchins have tried to give the impression that this port is strictly a Lagos state govt initiative executed by the Lagos state govt. They also try to tie it to Tinubu. But that is far from the truth. The port was initiated and is being developed by a private Singaporean company. The Lagos state govt and the FG (NPA) own 20% and 5% shares in the venture respectively
The reason you need to start thinking and stay away from simplistic ethnic and religious sentiments when discussing with intellectuals. Why would the state government single-handedly go into such a venture? The global standard is to bring in people with the technical know-how and financial war-chest to lead and operate the port while the state government is only a partner cum facilitator. Lagos state government conceived the whole idea, brought in a technical partner, and provided the land for this. Bringing in the Singaporean technical partner does not only ensure the project is operated by a competent hand, it also brought in FDI which is good for Nigeria.

There's nothing you have typed that has negated the information in my post which you quoted. Pls read again & take note of where the owners of the deep sea port come from.

NB: Can you produce where you got your question you asked in your first paragraph?
So, to you the original idea came from the Singaporean company and not the entities in Nigeria (Lagos and Fed)? Poorly structured reasoning from a mind beclouded by ethnicity and religious bigotry.

One would think Lagos state putting down 20% of the investment would at least push-start your analog brain but still, it wouldn't start.
