Who Should Tinubu Pick As His Running Mate? by garfield1: 2:19pm On Jul 01, 2022
Between shettima,zulum,boss mustapha,el rufai,malami, ganduje,dogara, ribadu,who should tinubu pick?

Ganduje cannot secure kano votes against a rampaging kwankwaso and his ragtag red cap minions.it will be a bad choice.
Malami is hated across the nation and might not even deliver his state.
El rufai can deliver Kaduna but the christian /southern community despise him.it will be a disastrous pick.
Boss mustapha is not a core politician.he cannot even deliver his LGA.dogara can deliver his constituency but not his state.ribadu is a serial failure politically.
Zulum is loved across religious and party divide.the Christian community will welcome him.he is the best governor in Nigeria.he will be the best choice as he will deliver borno bloc votes and yobe and kanuri support generally.shettima also can deliver borno and yobe bloc votes that might turn out to be the decider.those two states always go kamikaze on atiku and PDP...

Badaru of jigawa will be the best choice from the northwest but he can't deliver outside jigawa.bagudu in kebbi will struggle to deliver as his godfather aliero is now in PDP.
Again,buhari is from the northwest.it will not be wise to pick vp from the northwest.it has to go to northeast since they are the most marginalized region in the north and once tinubu finishes his tenure,the north east will take its turn.again,picking from the noryb east will prevent atiku from winning that region.

Zulum has made it clear he is going for 2nd term

Elrufai is just a liability that rides on buhari back and southern kaduna hatred (it would backfire if outside his state) plus highly controversial

Ganduje can not even win outside his senatorial district as it stands

Shettima is a Boko Haram terrorist and his role in using his state as pilot state from 2012 to 2015 is very much known

He is not popular outside borno, zero shighest you would get from him is marginal victory over atiku 50/50 only in borno only

Most politicians do not pick a very politically strong vice as the experience of OBJ with Atiku will show

The vice might start undermining the principal for his own ambition

See all the vice selected Jonathan Sambo Osinbajo they were just there with zero political value

I think Yobe and Borno are secure for APC already as long as Zulum is onboard. I will suggest someone from Gombe or Bauchi to see if those states can be added to Tinubu with the influence of the vice

Is there a former governor of either Gombe or Bauchi who still commands huge followership and is in APC?

You are right.but since atiku is a strong opponent,it is better he picks a politically strong vice to complement his strength. There is no apc member in bauchi that commands statewide influence.same for gombe except for goje who is too old.I think tinubu will still take bauchi and gombe narrowly,those states detest atiku

Those states have a strong PDP followership. The governor of Bauchi is PDP and he is running a 2nd term

what is Adamu Muazu doing this days? which party is he or even Goje? DO they have a young godson?

Goje is quite popular but he’s having a not so good relationship with the incumbent governor.

Tinubu isn't sure of winning any core northern state, but if he wants to reward loyalty, then he should pick Shettima.

I saw a video of Borno indigens booing Zulum for telling the crowd to vote Tinubu.

His success in the core north is not certain.

No matter who he picks, Northerners won't vote for Tinubu. Most of them are yearning for a younger President who can tackle the insecurity rampaging the region. They don't want a President older than Buhari. They keep asking; From Baba to Kaka?


Meanwhile Tinubu is yet to explain to them why he's been destroying their businesses in Lagos.

Tinubu is not Buhari. And Bauchi people will need a reason to turn out for Tinubu. With the governor not in APC its even more difficult

This one has come again. Oga Muslim-Muslim ticket is a recipe for failure. The VP is almost certainly going to NW which will further alienate the NE. Tinubu must choose one of those NW govs who backed him else he risks alienating them. Except they choose to forgo their ambitions which I doubt since they don't have a backup plan like Senate

Because the govs got the ticket for him with a promis to at least five of them of the VP slot

They are not ready to back off having defied even Buhari to get this far

El-Rufai will further alienate the Christian votes in Nigeria. He's a very bad choice

He is the best bet from NW but I still believe NE is getting the slot.
Re: Who Should Tinubu Pick As His Running Mate? by SlurUsername1: 3:51pm On Jul 01, 2022
I would have loved the chairman of Northern governors forum Simon Lalong of plateau state. This could help douse tensions across the country, attract votes from the Middle belt and North-Central and balance the muslim/ Christian ticket parameter been clamoured for. Then we just need to depend on buharis influence and APC governors in NW and NE to win the ticket. After all tinubu wasn't on the ballot but he delivered SW to buhari in 2015 and 2019.
SW votes and NW(middle belt votes) would have been secured in the bag already if Lalong were Tinubu's running mate

Anyone you see Reno Omokri dey abuse he is a good man.

His mind is obsessed with Tinubu and El-Rufai.

His backers and bankrollers see these two as the stumbling blocks, and they must by all means be discredited.

For that, I go with:

1. Tinubu - President.
2. El - Rufai - Vice President.

Honestly for political correctness,Babagana Zulum is the only VP choice that can mitigate the agitation that would come with the Muslim-Muslim ticket. He's loved across religion because of his outstanding performance in Bornu. At the same time he'll neutralize any threat from Atiku in the north east. Buhari and Apc governors in the north west will be sufficient arsenal for the party in that zone. I expect the Apc to win that zone on aggregate.There should be no much worries in the south because Peter Obi will help deplete heavily what the pdp used to get in the SS and SE. The South West will be emphatically delivered to Tinubu. I expect Tinubu to win Niger, Kwara, Kogi, while Benue, plateau will fall to Atiku. Nasarawa can be won by either of them but with a close margin.

Taraba, Adamawa will fall to Atiku while Yobe, Bornu will fall to Tinubu. Bauchi and Gombe will be hotly contested with small margins of victory for either of the candidates.

I would love Babagana Zullum but let him continue with the good works in Borno State,

H.E Simon Lalong of Plateau state NC region is very OK.

Hon Yakubu Dogara is a Christian from Bauchi NE region also make sense too

Boss Mustapha is a Christian from Adamawa State NE region fit the bill.

On Muslim- Muslim ticket

Senator Ahmed Lawan from Yobe state NE region is good.

Senator Ali Ndume from Borno State is also fine

There are popular Senators or FHoR Members from the North that can play a VP role for Asiwaju Tinubu.

It shouldn't be something APC is still searching, if actually they were prepared
