Voting for Obi is about as effective as voting for voting for Sowore.
It indirectly favours the incumbent party, especially if these votes cannibalises PDP stronghold in SE.


Obi is aiming at winning too. LP major campaign region is SE, SS, NC and NE because of huge Christian and liberal Muslim population there.

If Tinubu/APC relies on SW and NW only, he will lose the election before 12pm on February 25th.

General election is not a party delegate thing.

These are my surest 2023 permutations


Wrong. Tinubu may go for Elrufai and he will lose.
Obi will pick kwakwanso. Their talk is at an advanced stage

For Atiku, wike has refused being his running mate
Read newspapers for details.

I guess elrufai is Tinubu's motivational speaker, using kaduna as a case study on their Muslim-Muslim ticket. He will be shocked. Does it mean there's no qualified apc christian in the north? Kaduna, where teens were seen collecting 100 naira before thumbprinting on a ballot in viral videos, isn't same as Nigeria as a whole. Someone should tell elrufai this. Tinubu should just make a mistake by picking a Muslim as his running mate. It wouid be an easy win for obi or atiku. Buhari and aregbe saved their party from making same mistake in 2015.

Which other States gives massive votes in that NW if not Katsina, Kano and partly Kaduna and Jigawa. Nothing much comes out from Sokoto, Zamfara and Kebbi.

Kano and Jigawa and part of Sokoto and Zamfara are Kwankwaso strong hold and I don't know how Atiku and Tinubu tend to get reasonable votes from there.

My point is loud and clear kwankwaso have been relegated to a zonal leader, he can only win part of kano with Jigawa, forget the other two big K.

Tinubu's political dexterity and innate intellect is being called to question as it were.


The northern oligarchs, hegemonists, and power brokers having failed in their desperate bid to impose a northern candidate on the party, are now in a dangers drawn situation by trying to force a core northern Muslim on Asiwaju to checkmate him just like Atiku did against OBJ and to make Tinubu a puppet of his northern "masters".

You have nothing to say

Obi formed and equiped the famous AVS to combat criminality and restored Anambra to peace and order and crime was reduced to it's barest minimum

Obi only had to get 25% votes in the country to qualify as the president and these 24 states will give him that
Abia
Akwa Ibom
Anambra
Bauchi
Benue
Cross River
Delta
Ebonyi
Enugu
Ekiti
Gombe
Kogi
Lagos
Nasarawa
Fct
Ogun
Ondo
Osun
Oyo
Plateau
Rivers
Sokoto
Taraba
Niger State

I didn't say win, I mean just 25% votes from youths and Nigerians who are tired of the current status quo of bad governance

Yet it didnt stop the formation of BZM n IPOB or the billionaire kidnapper-Evans in his tenure.

But somehow you think he is the one that will stop Bokoharam,Fulani herdsmen,unknown gunmen of entirely different tribe and religious base financed by several powerful men.

Man is talking about making the Economy better when the seed of insecurity in his own state was planted by Nnamdi Kanu during his tenure as Governor.

What is the point of economy if we are all dead?

Obi's only chance of having a chance on this election is if he merges with Kwankwaso.
Then it will be about deciding who gets the ticket of the 'third force' between then and who accepts 'running mate' position.
.

Moghalu,Sowore,Oby attempted similar in 2019 but they couldnt come to an agreement on the flagbearer.

A nothing person in Felix Nicholas from 'PCP' got more votes than all 3 combines simply because his party name and flag was very similar to PDP.
Even with that his 107k votes wasnt up to 1% of the 11.2m votes PDP got, and PDP didnt even win.

This is assuming the Igbos even help him win his own zone to start with.
Ojukwu that is the hero of all Igbos couldnt even get the required votes to win SE when he contested in 2003 and 2007.

Tinubu unlike Abiola and Awolowo is a very curny man.

He will outsmart these Northerners in their own game.
He did it in the primaries and will do it in the VP selection and main election.

He is more similar to OBJ than Abiola.

Asiwaju can not be controlled by any Northerner.

Just watch it happen.

iamrealdeji:
Muslims own Nigeria. Igbo states that are dominated by Christians are very few,Yoruba states have more Muslims than Christians,Northern states are very many with very high population and they're majorly Muslims,Islam is the world's fastest growing religion and so it is in Nigeria,4 years to this time,the population of Muslims compared to Christians would be terrific. Let's call a spade a spade and allow our vice president to be Muslim. Heterogeneity of religion in leadership can only cause confusion. Developed nations have cabinet members practising the same religion. Dubai cabinet members are all muslims and Christians in Dubai are also enjoying their lives. Please someone should tell Jagaban that a Muslim vice president can only make Northerners vote for him. Atiku should choose a Muslim vice president too. He observes his salat well and we can see from the prayer mark on his forehead. He should only believe in Allah and not fall for threat of man. Non of them should give in to oppressions and threats. Its their rights to pick Muslims as vice president. They should pick Muslims as vice president if they want the North to vote for them. Nigeria is an Islamic nation.

LongBig:
APC can run with a Muslim-muslim and that should be their aim! They shouldn’t succumb to minority wailers, win the core north and the liberal south west!
The question you should ask yourself is, what's the popularity strength between atiku and kwakwanso in the north, what about integrity? They don't see atiku as a true Nigerian talkless of a respected Northerner. When kwakwanso coughs, the ground shakes. He was instrumental to Buhari's win in the north, not only in kano. Remember he came second during their primaries back then? People even thought he was going to be apc flagbearer. Ganduje wasn't known ahead of 2015. He produced him.

If the alliance between obi and kwakwanso should work, that's all. The north doesn't believe in Tinubu cos of his antecedents. They know he's not a man of integrity. Religion apart, with my experience, northerners crave integrity and that was why they supported buhari so much. He had our support too down south. After buhari in popularity in the north,Kwakwanso is next.

Down south, only those followers of tinubu are his proteges and their family members, not the majority. APC loss in oyo state despite being the ruling party, edo too, and close margin of lagos election results were a proof. Had lagos election results not padded for nearly 2 weeks in 2019 before release, lagos would have lost to the opposition. Sanwoolu and osinbajo lost to the pdp in their polling units. Tinubu had been spending money to earn popularity all the while but we're wiser now. We never believed our state had so much money until ambode came. He was our eye opener.

In the south east, apc can't get 1% vote, south south too, not even now that obi, the man of the people is running. Apc can't get same amount of 2015/2019 votes again in the north now that baba is leaving, south west too, just Mark it.

Those who would decide these elections are:

The Nigerian workers ( the labour force)
The Nigerian youths most of whom are unemployed
The Nigerian students who had spent 6 years or more in school instead of 4.
The less privileged who heard of 50kusd/25kusd shared at primaries when they had no Hope of one square meal per day.

Why are talking rubbish

Igbos picked Obasanjo over Ojukwu because Nigeria agreed to elect a Yoruba because of 1993

You can't compare Nicholas or any SE politician to Peter Obi

Is it Tinubu that couldn't identify with his people when they're being massacred that will protect them

IPOB agitation started as a result of marginalisation of SE by Buhari

One of the reasons for insecurity is lack of job and good economy will solve 59% of that

You can't solve it completely but can reduce it to the barest minimum

There are more muslims than christians in Nigeria.

In fact the only zones that have majority as christians are SS and SE.

SW is shared relatively equally between Christians and Muslims of which many of the Christians that are Yoruba will still vote for Tinubu as in Yoruba land, tribe matters more than religion.

Whether Tinubu has a muslim or a christian running mate, Obi will still not get more than his expected votes in SW.
Chief don't forget NC, kogi, benue, plateau , nasarawa. The number of Christians are formidable

If the north can't support a Christian from the North to be VP why should the south support a Muslim from the south to be president?

The North is one and the Christians there are minorities.

The south is two or three. And there's region in South which Muslims are majority so they can support him and win.
