That's it. Jonathan won all the state in south except Osun in 2011, and lost almost all southwest states in 2015.


You expect me to vote a western candidate in the name of south. Henceforth, the west will be the south they made themselves - enemy of the south - period.

You should be asking your Jonathan what he did to make him lose the south West who voted for him as well as their leaders who were the only ones to plead for him when the North had wanted to remove him after Yaradua death. Point is Jonathan was the one who betrayed the SW. The SW did more than enough for him already because 6 years was enough for him. How many years were you expecting before? 10 years?

And the competence you want is the confirm failure of a person call Atiku. Tinubu is an achiever with known track records, Atiku on the other hand has just records of selling national properties and killing the country further, no single pedigree to his name as 8 years VP outside prodigal buccaneering of Nigerian heritage.
The only crime Tinubu has is backing Buhari to power, I can’t blame him for that, 15m Nigerians did including the same Atiku.
As far as competence is concerned Tinubu takes all the A+.
Forget about who is holy, all the top candidates has their hands wet with the honey. They are all thieves agreed.

This campaign is all about competence and other candidate are not in the same league with Tinubu on this.

you must be irredeemably stupid for supporting Tinubu by claiming all candidates are thieves just to validate the candidacy of your lord and saviour Tinubu, a well known kleptomaniac swine.
Arrant nonsense!!!

Seriously speaking I don't understand why some Southerners are against Tinubu and rejoice over any news that undermines him while supporting Atiku and the PDP. I'm just utterly surprised.
Yes I want Peter Obi but if Peter can't get it then Tinubu should have it. Why on earth should a Southerner be happy that somebody or some persons decamped from APC to PDP?
If it's labour Party it is understandable but to openly support Atiku over tinubu is foolishness of the highest order.
I'm a strong advocate of Peter Obi. I'm a card carrying member of the PDP in Delta State.but I'm for Southern Presidency

Tinubu and Atiku are bad news for Nigeria. Tinubu will go down in our history as the greatest Nigerian of our time if he would simply do one thing, the right thing. Raise Peter Obi's hand, and mandate his followers to cast their votes for him. Duty done.

Otherwise, he will lose, and we know he is a bad loser.

delusional grandeur if you still think you have a clean candidate among the top contender, they are all thieves yes I said it and I will say it again, but as it is today, Tinubu still kept his loot locally in Lagos and not in one Pandora heaven or Dubai, killing our economy further.
I will like to vote someone as clean to our public funds like Sowore, but we know it will only leads to a waste of vote, but instead I will rather vote an achiever who's records speaks for itself.
Obi only gained a moment out of sentiment and it's becoming clearer everyday that he has no pedigree to stand among men.
Atiku on the other hand has no love for this country except for the cash cow business, else he shouldn't have stolen the southeast mandate from PDP. This election should be southern Nigeria affair, but Atiku hate Nigeria soo much, his only concern is milking the cash cow, He cares not if is mission breaks up the country. He will return to his funded country when the cow finally kick the bucket.

you see the problem here you have a way of rationalizing the exclusion of one of the major tribe in Nigeria. Some of you even make boast that igbos will never rule Nigeria in 200years and with that kind of boast why won't we have southerners rooting for atiku. If there is agreement between north and south for equity sake,why can't we see that such an agreement should be allowed to prevail amount the two major tribes in the South for equity sake.

1.Atiku has the connections...even more than Tinubu and Obi self.

2.Southerners are not united when it comes to our political interests. See the mess that resulted when attempts were made to make sure PDP fieleded a Southern candidate....there was a declaration at Asaba, and a few days later...some people went and backed Atiku...AFTER agreeing that a Southerner should be PDP candidate...AND they were SOutherners....

3.Bitterness. Igbos largely supported GEJ. Yourbas supported Buhari. In the year 2014. Buhari won. The anger has not died down. (On Nairaland...the political section is divided between Buharists and GEJIsts...with neutrals in the middle). The anger even dates back to the 1950's when Azikiwe was prevented from becoming Western region premier..because.....and since then, sniping hath happened. Throw in the civil war, where Biafra thought they had support from SW...

You guys know how to distort facts. How did Jonathan betray the west? Jonathan zoned the post of the speaker to southwest and Tinubu singlehandedly denied the west from occupying that position because he wanted a full alliance with north for his selfish ambition. Didn't you see in one of the books presented by a Yoruba elder?

My candid advice is that the younger generation of your political leaders should look for a way to pacify the rest of the south for the deeds of 2015 and beyond. If you guys continue to defend the actions of your people, it'll definitely bounce back on you. Edo and Yoruba had always been on the same political page before now. But now, my disposition is shared by at least 82% of my people. We await Tinubu at the ballot.

Op I disagree with you. I rather vote for Atiku than to vote Thïefnubu.

I am a Southerner supporting Peter Obi 100% but Atiku is my second choice.

We are talking of competence and not about zone.

Thïefnubu has nothing to offer except from fulfilling his long-term selfish ambition.

The above is why Atiku is going to win in 2015.

Southerners do not know how to put aside grudges.

2015 was years ago, guys. GEJ has moved on. We Southerners have not. That's why Buhari and Atiku keep winning.

The question u should be asking is why did the southerners from the west side choose an illitrate northern coup plotter candidate over an educated southern liberal candidate in 2015?

Why will our western brothers see a better candidate like Obi and still prefer Tinubu? Our same western brothers prefer Atiku to win the presidential election than Peter Obi to win it, same as the Igbo do prefer Atiku to win it than Tinubu.

It is only we the South South that are liberal in our support for Peter Obi as a southern candidate. You don't expect us to carry our hand go vote APC after all the nonsense wey buhari done use our eyes see in the last eight years na. And Atiku is from North, so u don't expect us to support a northerner after 8yrs of northern disastrous rule. But that doesn't mean I will prefer any APC candidate to him. I hate APC with passion because of buhari and I don't think I can ever support any APC candidates at any level of government again in my life. To tell u my level of hatred for this evil APC party, even if it was Adams Oshiomole who happen to be from my state that APC brought out as it presidential candidate, I will not still support him.

So I don't see why u should generalised Igbo and Yoruba hating themselves to the entire Southern Nigeria. The Yorubas even extended their hatred for the Igbos towards the south southerners in 2015 voting against Jonathan, only because they have it in mind that people from south south and southeast are the same
