Buni will be back to his state and will remain powerless like Oshiomole is.

Now new alliance need to be built with the new APC chairman Adamu and that’s where the game starts.

Buni has been disgraced. He initially want to make sure the convention cannot hold but we have shamed him patapata.

APC remain United as ever!!!

Tinubuadvocate:
​everything concern this APC convention even aftermath of the convention would definitely work in favor of Tinubu. Even if iyorcha Ayu emerge APC consensus Tinubu is next Nigeria president it's a mandate given to him. Its a clarion call he must respect Nigerians call.


I'm just pitting you wailers is this how you will wailing for the next 8 years

Truthisunique3:
bro a good south south man can step in since north may use igbophobia to vote

Wike if you want tuggishnishness, or udom if you want calm yet performing man

I would hate for us to be going fulani again, it's not even a guarantee apc won't rig if they want

Tinubu would be sent out of apc don't forget, and kwanwaso would gulp alot of northern votes yet fail in south which PDP would hold strong

So PDP can tatically win election with a southern candidate

monex:
indeed!!! hence APC is smart and is pressuring them to field a south easterner.

I think it’s not just about securing power, but also about equity, justice and fairness. If we go by that, the SE should be allowed without delay to get their share.

This consensus of the political positions going into the convention by the APC may be a smokescreen. I believe that in a few months more, those who lose in both parties will decamp. I think APC will suffer more because PMB’s name may not be there as their campaign symbol anymore. Moreso anyway, APC has plenty of cracks and would very likely breakup with the different formative groups taking away their structures.

For me Atiku needs to give up and support the south on the basis of their existing power sharing agreement. His desperate ambition cost him the position which was on a platter for him before OBJ’s second term in 2003. I do not see him getting the position of the president. Notice that right from the days of the first republic, politicians who wanted the presidency by all means never won, aside from PMB. President OBJ handed over to Yaradua and GEJ who did not have to do any work.

Amaechi is from the SS, but politically holds that he represents the SS and SE going by his Igbo name and his wife being an Igbo woman. I am of the opinion that PDP and APC must present candidates from the SE. Without doubts the SE has an abundance of candidates.

When you talk about Osinbanjo, you need to ask if he has a nationwide appeal. Let’s not look at it myopically. Can the APC platform carry him well enough to secure the position? Shehu Shagari was a political lightweight in 1979 against Nnamdi Azikiwe, Obafemi Awolowo and Aminu Kano, but he won nationally because the structure of the then NPN was better than NPN, UPN and RP. Can APC structure deliver Osinbanjo now that there is more division in the country along tribal and religious lines?

Peter Obi can win the election if PDP has more appeal and do the right things. Peter Obi is not the only candidate from the SE. We have heard Orji Kalu saying that he is only waiting for APC to zone to the SE before he declares his intention. Umahi’s intention is not a secret.

But in all, I strongly believe that northern interests in APC intend to hand over to GEJ. They expect that GEJ should complete his second term and power should revert to the north for 8 years. After that power should go to the SE.

I think that BAT with all his so far tribal consultations will lose.

HitRun:
In Daura, drinking nunu, and watching the game of thrones from afar with glee. Wetin concern am. President, he don do. HE attach to him name till death, after which state burial go follow. Everybody can kill themselves for all he cares

helinues:
And where would Buhari stands in all this CPC postulation?

Invictuse:
But you entire tribe as been going at Yoruba n it candidate Tinubu Osibanjo etc. Yet your miserable wail of sorrow & agony did not stop them rather they tell you Igbos to go to hell or ask you to support your Fulani lord n saviour Atiku without being deterred by whatever foolish decision you Igbos take. Yoruba are sure that whenever you arrive with your Igbo candidate your fathers will be defeated before lunch to on election day.

Kennyfancy:
be Frank with urself, APC with Osibanjo or Amechi, is better than PDP with Atiku,its not about party but about who will work

Ndimkpurummiri:
back door to the presidency is sign of being coward.
Let Pandora Peter Obi contest

BlazinGlory40:
On one hand we clamour for power to return south and on the other hand asking for atiku to be given ticket. I think a stand needs to be taken

Fahdiga:
Nice decision but I think Ayu is trying to secure his position as the party's chairman because once a northerner clinch the party's ticket the party's chairman will be a southerner

saphiere:
rule 2

saphiere:
May this fate befall you IJN

psychalade:
And Igbos have obsession (long throat ) for Yoruba land (assets)

AsiwajuOfPeePoo:
Jonathan in trying to have Tinubu jailed to me is genesis of the situation we are in.
Tinubu on the other hand allowed anger to becloud his sense of reasoning by support a tribal and Islamic terrorist.
Yoruba has a problem and that problem is Igbophobia.

Praxis758:
Who would you vote for if both APC and PDP zone their presidential tickets to South East?

Dave Umahi

Peter Obi

Nonpartisan1:
Going by the voting pattern of an average Easterner on national politics, they always support other candidates from other zones in place of their own because of their love for the PDP.

This time around one of their "illustrious" sons has declared to vie for the highest office in the land, will they queue behind him, or continue to support the Fulanis, which they claim, are killing their people?


Azikiwe was betrayed.
Ojukwu was betrayed.
Ekwueme was betrayed.

Will Peter Obi face the same shame?

FERNANDEZISBACK:
Why tho?
I'd love to see that...

jyz200:
Your level of reasoning is poor
You must be the real Fulani slaves

Let’s all southerners compete for it , stop hiding ur failures behind anybody
