We need another Northerner that understand the level of insecurity created by the bandits to help erase insecurity, before a novice southerner that understand Economy but not Fulfudi insecurity can take over.... Better put. #ATIKU/OBI ticket would fly and give tinubu a chase.

HE IS NOT A DESPERATE IRAGBIJI MANgrin
Not desperate or pdp doesn't give a damn about SE?

But are you aware he has also pledged his loyalty to fulani athifku. Or has athifku changed his tribe and religion?

Is athifku now an Igbo christian?

Some of you are clueless on what to do with your life hence coming online to spew nonsense in the name of faceless platforms. How many of those people you are cursing out can you face in real life? This is an opportunity to network and have a better life but see what you have chosen. I did not even said a word for you to quote and insult me. Some of you just have a mouka foam for a brain.

No matter who PDP choose they face a tough battle. Personally I think Obi is a liability even as VP. PDP should go with Wike or Makinde as VP.

PDP esp SE People will abuse me but the purpose of a vp is to win you votes in areas where you are not strong or encroach into opposition heartland. Obi did not win Atiku any new votes aputside SE last time and he even got less votes in SE than Jonathan therefore he was a liability to Atiku.
Atiku got more vote from SW, I think he should picj someone from SS/SW

Smh. And he's supposed to be the one to take Nigeria out of the doldrums, according to some people?? Obi can't even exhibit the boldness to join the race like lesser known kinsmen of his have already done. That says a lot about his ability to take decisive decisions as president. He's all hype and no substance.

I said it in 2019 and I am saying it now, SE has no electoral value to PDP. It is a waste of a slot whether presidential or VP. Giving presidential slot to SE will lose votes in north and SW, giving them Vp wil not gain any votes anywhere, if anything it will lose them votes outside the SE! This is pure maths not sentiment. Sentiment does not win elections numbers do! You go where the numbers are!!!

I have said what I have to say, you can campaign all you like you only have 1 vote. There is a reason why prominent people lose their own wards……you think they didn’t campaign in their own wards? There are some places that will not vote for certain candidates no matter the delegation you send to the campaign. Anambra and many eastern states will never vote for APC….am I lying? The same is true for a SE candidate outside the SE depending on whether he is the Vp or presidential candidate. No matter how you try, a SE presidential candidate will lose in the North and SW 100%.

Another major problem Ibos have politically is that they have migrated and spread themselves around the country so much, that they do not have the voting numbers back home to be a significant and desirable electoral bride and they are too thinly spread across the country to affect the outcomes of election. Even their population in Lagos is not yet enough to significantly affect the Lagos elections. In places where it is they are intimidated by the locals.

so Makinde will win more votes innteh SW than Peter Obi in the SE?

The same you will say Peter Obi is very desperate for power when he start fighting dirty or making such moves.

The man is just after what will make Nigeria better and solve it's numerous problems not just because it's his life dreams or ambition.

You must be a big fan of thuggery to have named Wike as a possible VP of Nigeria.

Anybody who truly loves Nigeria won't imagine an unintelligent and thuggish fellow as VP in the Nigeria of today. Infact, the pairing should never be anything short of what we currently have.

What do you take the position VP for? You want us to end up with another Jonathan-like figure?

A real man would go after his conviction irrespective of who considers him desperate or not. The other contestants that have already declared their interests in the presidency don't care who sees them as desperate or not because that's irrelevant, anybody is free to say what they like, it's your conviction that matters.

The naked truth is that Peter Obi is a coward that's not fit for the office of presidency. That office is reserved for bold men with hearts of a Lion because it requires courage and dexterity to manage a complex country like ours. These are attributes Obi he obviously lacks.

. Have you taken your medicine this morning? Or is it nepa worrying you? You talk as if Nigeria still has the capacity to produce anything but discredited leaders? Who amongst our leaders is not engrossed in scandal, theft, embezzlement, murder. Drug dealing, forgery etc etc. All our leaders are crooks and thugs because they are a reflection of society. Examine your own life first before you start pointing fingers.

I am not a fan of PDP, and I have never and will never vote PDP, I did not vote for Buhari either in both elections because I remmember he was a colossal failure in 1984. I simply made an unemotional analysis on PDPs best chances in the elections. in any event who are you to talk? As for intelligence Although I am no fan of Wike, he has shown more intelligence that you have in your post. All your so called gentlemen politicians, he was the one intelligent enough to challenge the illegality of VAT, which will go down as one of the most profound decisions in Nigeria!

The problem with people like you social media warriors is you are so arrogant you are detached from reality, you talk of quality of leadership do you participate in the process that produces the candidates, are you a card carrying party member? Have you seen the people who do and are party members?. People like Wike are in touch with reality so they win elections! People like you become lifetime internet moaners. You wishes mean nothing of you take no action to wrestle power from the people you call thugs…..it’s just BS virtue signaling and of no consequence except to make you feel intelligent…. But the intelligent people are the drivers, thugs, market women etc who engage at the grassroots level, are party members and participate in primaries and hence determine your leaders!!!! The irony huh?

Sometimes just read and STFU if you have nothing meaningful to contribute! The problem with the so called educated Nigerian is that he feels his certificate confers him intelligence, he feels superior but if he were to really analyze Nigeria he would realize the dumbest people in Nigeria are the average educated middle class Nigerians who are ruled by people they call thugs and can’t even afford to send their children to the schools they attended.

The problem with you people as has been highlighted many times by others is you talk from the heart and not from the brain and that’s why you always fail politically.

Elections are a very simple matter, in fact one of the simplest matters on earth because it is arithmetic but the most basic of arithmetic..counting and totaling of votes. The man who has 1 more vote wins simple as!!! But you fail because you turn a simple concept of counting into an emotional matter.

F”you claim obi won 90% of SE votes

1) Firstly let me say it does not matter if you win 100% of the votes in an area if you need 2m votes and the area has only 1 m votes…you will still lose.

2) Obi did not get 90% of the votes in the SE, the highest he got in any state in the SE was 86.6% in Anambra. In Abia he got 67.8%, ebony’s 72%, Enugu 84% and IMO 65%. When you add all the votes in the SE, Obi’s total was 80% of the votes….which is good! The problem with his performance in the SE though is that a) it is the lowest vote total of any zone b) it is a zone that was always going g to vote for PDP surely not APC so his candidacy did not really do anything for PDP is the SE was always goi g to vote for PDP c) finally he got less votes for PDP in the SE than Jonathan did in 2015. That ofcourse could be down to inflated votes in 2015 as we all know it is harder to rig.

If Atiku had selected a SW candidate and gained 1m extra votes in the SW, he would be president today because 1) people in the SE were disaffected with Buhari and 2 the SE will still have voted PDP.


Like I said 1 million extra votes from a candidate that is sellable outside the SE would have made Atiku president. Obi is not sellable outside the SE. what choice to the SE have if they are not on the ticket? It was a monumental error!!!!
