I disagree with the position of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar confusingly stating that Chief Olusegun Obasanjo & Dr. Goodluck Jonathan (Southerners) were Presidents for 8 years and 6 years respectively, whilst he deliberately skipped the name of the late Umaru Musa Yar'Adua for selfish political interest.

What makes it more disappointing for me is the fact that the former Vice President is a Muslim and Islam teaches us to be truthful and fair in our dealings and not misguide people with our utterances. Alh Atiku knows that after Chief Obasanjo's tenure, it was Yar'Adua before the circumstance made Dr. Goodluck Jonathan President.

Death, which is inevitable to all, shortened the tenure of Yar'Adua as the President, not man. But someone who calls himself a Muslim who is supposed to be truthful and believe in God and Death, I expected that he should have recognised Yar'Adua in his analogy.

Going by his recent utterances, Alhaji Atiku has just proven to us again that he is one of the typical Nigerian politicians who is ever ready to manipulate the people, twist the fact and mislead people to satisfy their political interest even if it means at the detriment of unity, peace and progress of our dear country.

For me, I strongly believe that only an enemy of Nigeria will want to keep power in the North as far as 2023 is concerned. The South is bleeding: Yorubas are agitating for Oduduwa Nation; the Igbos are agitating for Biafra, a clear indication that these groups feel marginalized, while the Northerners have retained the position of the President for eight years (2 uninterrupted terms of 4 years).

In the interest of peace, it is only fair that the South should produce the next Nigerian President. God has blessed our country with so much resources. We want to progress in our country, and we can never achieve progress without fairness, justice and peace.

ONLY AN ENEMY OF NIGERIA WILL WANT THE NORTH TO RETAIN POWER IN 2023. This is the time politicians must sacrifice for Nigeria and embrace peace first as we, the politicians are the ones that have benefited mostly from the failed system. So sad!!! #NigeriaNeedsPeace #PeaceFirst #Ayederoofyorubaland

lloydtruth:
Also only an enemy of Nigeria would want power to go to the South West

Achuwa1:
According to shina peller, Islam teaches us to be truthful and fair in our dealings with people,it further says we shouldnt misguid e people.
Shina peller should tell that to Tinubu aswel coz if it is the turn of the south to rule then it should be south East.

Abdul05:
but some stupid elites from the south still want to vote a northerner.. against a southern er

Death, which is inevitable to all, shortened the tenure of Yar'Adua as the President, not man. But someone who calls himself a Muslim who is supposed to be truthful and believe in God and Death, I expected that he should have recognised Yar'Adua in his analogy.

LegendHero:
I don’t subscribe to Peller school of thought coz you can’t judge PDP party with APC party coz they are currently faced with differing situations.

The only best chance for PDP to have a great showing against APC is to present Atiku and I don’t think an opposition party will be foolish enough to present a candidate they are very sure will lose against APC southern candidate.

If PDP presents any other candidate except Atiku, the APC will defeat that candidate before noon on Election Day.

PDP is currently in a dilemma. Present Atiku and incur the wrath of some southern people (except SE), present Obi Pandora/Wike and get defeated before noon on Election Day. I pray God continue to confuse them so that APC can have a smooth sailing in 2023.

Midastorch:
You have just talked like a wailing wailer from PDP not someone who has the interest of the SE at heart...it will be fair enough if both parties can have their candidate from SE....

LegendHero:
We are talking about sellable candidates, this one is talking about SE.

Even Obi Pandora the balless fugitive ran away from contesting because he knows when gladiators are talking, chickens should not present themselves.

No party will give their slot to the SE in 2023, stop wasting your time day dreaming!!

seunmsg:
Well said Hon. Shina Peller Olowo Idan.

maticar:
If it must be south it has to be south East

All of una head no correct
