Opinion; Why The North Will Not Vote For Peter Obi by nikky5(m): 3:32pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
No doubt Peter Obi is young and articulate. He is endowed with Sterling leadership qualities and innovation. Currently, he is the youths sensational media hype. The OBIdient youths has set the cyberspace on fire for the emergence of Peter Obi as the next President of Nigeria. Many of these youths do not understand the dynamics of Nigeria politics and the intrigues of power play. There are political Kings and pawns on the chessboard. The Northern Nigeria are the real game changers of Nigeria politics. It is believed by pundits that without the support of the North, you cannot win a presidential election in Nigeria. That's very correct. They have the population that will give the needed block votes. The choice of Shettima from the North East as the VP elect on the APC ticket is a perfect game plan. It's a dead end for both Atiku and Peter Obi who has no chance of winning in the Northern States. It is very clear that the North wants power to return to the South for the sake of equity and fairness in governance. It's also a sustainable recipe for national stability and unity. Peter Obi is not a friend of the North. He cannot win in any of their states. The reasons are very obvious. In recent times, the northerners in the South East has been killed by unknown gunmen suspected to be Igbos. What was Obi's reactions? The real voters in the North are not social media warlords. What has the North benefitted from Peter Obi? The Northerners feel safe in a united Nigeria with the Southwest than a region agitating for seccession. They cannot trust the Southeast with power. Obi has no political structures in the North. He is a green horn from an unpopular party. It's clear that Kwankwaso will join the BAT train any moment from now for a final conquest of the Northern States. Candid speaking, Obi will make a good minister of Finance but not a President. Maybe ten years from now he will be ripe for that office. |

If there are 100 Northerners voters (indigents).. 60-65 are Muslims while 35-40 are Christians.. About 22 of those Christians will be voting Peter Obi, 15 will go for Atiku and the rest will vote Tinibu... About 3 of the Northern Muslims will vote for Obi.. These will amount to about 25% of votes in the North.. Definitely not a bad result... I didn't include millions of Igbos and other Southerners who will be voting in the Nor, like myself.. Most of us will go for Obi.. 8 Likes |

Whether you are right or wrong, the people's choice will be Peter obi. We are ready to lose the election so long as we exercise our rights. Why is that difficult for people like you to understand. This focus on winning that you are all obsessed with is truly a limiting issue. You must not win an election , but should participate in it. Because you want to win an election, that's why your principals do unethical things to win it. We are progressive Nigerians, we ont be involved in unethical. We will fight the good fight and if we lose, we will all live with the consequences of your choices. By the way, the north have deceived you that they have the population, you have believed it because you are subservient. Start asking questions about your existence here and maybe you will join the boat of progressives. 5 Likes |

Leave OBIdients to worry about your concerns, while you face squarely the impossible task to selling a Muslim-Muslim ticket to Nigerians, in which one out of the pair in that abominable ticket is terminally sick. 4 Likes |

nikky5: Before you people begins to make useless political analysis let me school you small. In Nigeria the north and the south need each other to win in an election, Buhari was a core Fulani northerner and he contested election 3x before succeeding in his for attempt, all the while he was contesting he was doing it on the fact that he believed that they have the population and that will be enough to make him win but he failed in each of 3 attempt, the only time Buhari was able to win was when he had a hand shake with the south and the agreed to work together that is in the person of Tinubu, Amechi, Ogbonnaya Onu, Rochas etc. Secondly when you are mentioning north try as much as possible to separate it with the middle Belt especially Kogi, Benue and plateau State and FCT. Religiously in Nigeria we have 36 state and out of the 36 states 19 is been governed by Christians, and in the so called north in a place like Kaduna you have 45% Adamawa 30% Taraba 56% Gombe 35% etc. When we talk about important determinant to who wins election in Nigeria the both north and south works hand in hand. Don't say it as if it is only the north that determines who becomes the president of Nigeria. 2 Likes |

ImmaculateJOE: OK. But you need to understand something, northerners to a great extent are realists especially with regards these issues that's why tambuwal stepped down for atiku, northern APC governors were adamant that the ticket should go south and numerous other instances. You can connect the dots. |

Abdu81:thank you. Despite allowing children and goats to vote for their candidates. Only someone who doesn't reason will believe a sahel arid region will be more populated than the sough. Yes they have a high birth rate, they also have high mortality rate due to disease and child mortality. The south has refused to wake up and seize this country and the yoruba are to blame. |
