SW has credible candidates with solid track record.. people like Asiwaju Tinubu, Prof. Yemi Osibanjo, Adesina, Fashola and co.
We want people with tested and trusted hands not some trial and error misfits.

The only North Central that can ever rule Nigeria will come from Niger or Nasarawa state

Benue can never produce President under the current arrangement in Nigeria. Fact!

Southwest would have produced presidents twice over before Benue can be considered for VP.

Oga No one from the SW will be elected president in 2023.Instead of that to happen,the North will continue to rule

Instead of the North continuing to rule, we will split the country and all Igbos in the South West would be deported back to Igboland and Northerners to the North.
We can't be feeding unfortunate ingrates.

Jonathan can gather national votes from the SS. He can get votes from the North.

Tinubu can harvest votes from the North. Osinbajo can get votes also.

Mention a single Igbo politician who can get votes from the North. Just one.

Even if the Southern candidate will be Ibo in APC, they must field Joe Igbokwe.

That is the only Ibo man that the SW will support.

If PDP fields a Northern candidate, it will lose. If Apc fields a Northern candidate, it will lose. Any party that fields a Northern candidate in 2023 will lose. Northerners are romancing Igbos thinking the VP ticket will get them SE votes.

Look at the picture attached very well. In 2011, Buhari was thinking like a regional champion. He won the Northern states but lost woefully despite using an Igbo man as VP to garner Igbo votes.

2023, this will repeat itself. Any party who foolishly gives the North its ticket will lose. Guaranteed.

Much ado about nothing, Keep the peasants talking, why do you think the President is placing Hausa Fulani in almost all Government positions, because Osinbajo South West is the next President, The President can trust him, when their tenure is over, Osinbajo can replace them with who he wants, it is a party thing, not an ethnic decision, the ACN cartel is strong, Lagos & Ogun State have Abuja on lock.
CPC/APC have done 8 years, It is ACN/APC’s turn.

Only a Northern candidate they imagine can defeat the Vice President, pdp will be giving a bashing like what MKO did to Bashir Tofa, Benin Abubakar Atiku, Tambuwal or Saraki.

100% correct.

By the same measure and in the spirit of fairness, when it is zoned to South, it should also be narrowed to South East. SE is the only geopolitical zone in the south that is yet to produce president in the current democratic dispensation.

Are you sure you are a Nigerian?
Where were you when the Northerners threatened hell during GEJ? people like El-rufai and co. Agreed Yar'adua couldn't complete his tenure and GEJ had to step in. Why didn't Northerners see GEJ as a Nigerian that they did all they could to frustrate him?

Left for Igbos, GEJ could continue and the North go to war as far as they are in control of his govt. It took Yorubas to quell the tension and made Buhari popular and accepted. Now the North want to repay same Yorubas with evil, trying to use Igbos against South. Ba wahala.

Give this man presidency already

Better than Tinubu, osinbajo, umahi,

We need a president with balls to step on toes if Buhari mess would be redeemed

On the same argument that the north has done 8 years, that same argument precludes yorubas from contesting. SW yorubas have done 8 years as presidency and VP of 8 years by 2023, so they are the least qualified in the South to contest.

If the SW is shouting fairness and equity, so that all southerners can join them to hijack the presidency to their region, then the southern nonsense won't work.

Everybody in the south, knows the only region in the south that has not produced presidency and VP since 1999, that region is the South East, if the southern unity scheme is not geared towards fairness and justice for the SE that has not tasted power since 1999, then let's stop wasting our time with the 'Southern unity' hullabaloos.

Our heads in the SE will not be used to break coconut for yorubas to eat and then go home and mock us on how they are smarter than everyone else. An antecedent that they are well known for.

Let the southern forum work towards making their mega parties zone their tickets to the South East and assuage the tensions there. Thank you all.

I will gladly vote for an igbo man rather than a Yoruba man... It's funny how most Yorubas are just too confident and think we trust them more than igbos...if an igbo man hates you, he tells you straight up, but a Yoruba man will pretend to love you just to strike at another time.

The funny thing is that southern unity so whether e benefit you or not

It's the only thing that can stop buhari jihad now, just try been on your own and watch how buhari would pick you like beans

I am not Yoruba, but if I see someone like akeredolu or wine I would support

If I see an Igbo with balls i would support, but Igbo has no one like that yet we need someone with balls that would push the fulanis from the extent they have gone with jihad since

The south can't win. They are divided. SE doesn't support SW and vice versa.

If an Igbo man gets APC's ticket, the SW will not line up to support him. If the SW gets the ticket, that means the VP will be from the North so the SE has nothing, no VP no Presidency. That is why it makes sense for the east to support the North who has been inclusive of them and has a spot as VP for the east. What does the SW offer the east?

So the SE has a better chance if being VP under a strong Northerner as President.

The SE can either get the VP under PDP or nothing under APC.

There's nothing wrong with Presidents coming from the same region as long as they are competent.

No more ethnic Presidents, we should simply have every region present their candidate and allow the best man to win. Zoning breeds mediocrity.

Politics is not a game of sentiment. But logic and numbers. The North has the numbers, the only logical move is to ally with the North.



The part in bold is absolute rubbish. Even when Osinbajo was on the APC ticket in 2019, over 40% of south west vote went to Atiku/Obi ticket. That should tell you we don’t behave like you hateful folks. I have said it times without number here that if APC fields a northerner and PDP fields an Igbo man, SW will massively vote for the Igbo man because we will never allow the north to rule for another 8 years.

For us in the south west, it’s a Southern president in 2023 or burst. That is why our governor, Rotimi Akeredolu is clearing all doubts early enough. We know when to be irrational and when to be emotional. We won’t comprise our stand on southern presidency in 2023.
