Like I said on the other thread, the Nigeria media will milk everything out of this Wike G5 endorsement.

—Wike set to meet Tinubu and endorse him

—G5 split apart, divided on who to endorse between Peter Obi and Tinubu

—G5 in talks with Peter Obi on possible alliance

—Tinubu jet out to London to meet G5 governor

—Obasanjo finally dwell on G5 governors to endorse Peter Obi

—Bola Tinubu fail to meet G5 terms, alliance set to endorse Peter Obi

—At last, G5 governors finally throw their weight behind Tinubu

—With promise to nominate 20% of Tinubu cabinet, G5 led by Wike endorse Tinubu

—Wike set to campaign with Tinubu in Lagos rally.

I knew from the very beginning that wike was not going to stay with PDP or support Atiku.

Tinubu remains a master strategist; for sure it isn’t what you do, but all about how it is done.
It wouldn’t have mattered if Wike had crossed over 2 or 4 months ago…The key here is the timing of Wike’s announcement to cross over to support Tinubu.

Obviously Wike doesn’t have any respect for Atiku and his 30 yrs ambition to lead Nigeria. Wike also happens to be too smart to waste his time joining the Losers’ Party (LP). It isn’t personal, seasoned politicians tend to flow with a winner.
Expect Wike to complete the cross over to APC process between the first and second week of January.

Obidient4life2:
Urchins and day dreaming is 5 and 6! G-5 are not demented fellows to endorse the worse candidate with the worse VP in the history of Nigeria!

Edo no be Lagos” landed you a governor who is commissioning streetlights and the Lagos you don’t want to be like is commissioning world-class rail infrastructure.

At some point, Nigerians have to admit that godfatherism has been the most effective style of government in Nigeria

Tinubu and his gangs will soon wake up and read Wike has endorsed Peter Obi for President

Tinubuwins2023e:
I was watching the stupidity of ipob miscreants feeling high and fly in the previous thread. I decided not to respond to any other them because silence is the best answer for idiots.
How on earth do you expect the learned, intelligent G5 governors that have performed better than the Pandora animal to endorse someone they themselves are better than?
It's just like saying first class/ second class upper graduates should support a student that graduated with a pass. I mean, are this ipob miscreants mad?
Every state looks up to Lagos and not Anambra so why should the G5 governors support a failure/ an olodo.
Omo, something is wrong with the brain of this Pandora supporters o. Be like say na empty skull them dey carry up and down

Just wait till the announcement
Its actually PDP for Peter Obi in the South
U are still a baby in the game

If the deal goes through....

It's a win for Tinubu and APC..

If the deal fell apart, but Wike supports Labour Party against PDP as some news are reporting..

It's still a win for Tinubu and APC, because, Atiku and PDP are still the ones to suffer losing their traditional voting base and votes from SE and SS..

Head or Tail...the G5 not working for PDP, irrespective of who they work for, as long as it is not PDP is a plus for APC.

In any case...I still see an outright winner at the first ballot, between Atiku and Tinubu...I don't think there will be any rerun as these two are strong enough to get 25% votes in 2/3 States of the federation and FCT.

God bless Nigeria

Lets be factual for once.
Lets assumed the G5 support Obi, 11 states from SS and SE are out with benue, and abuja, making 13. 37 out of 13 is 24
And then there is Atiku, Tinubu and kwakwanso to share the core north votes.
How do u think they can win?

Dbegining:
I don't think Makinde will ever declare support for the APC. Except he doesn't want to be re-elected.

Ortom has already declared for the LP.

In summary the news isn't Correct.

One thing you don't ever do in politics is overrate your candidate and look at any endorsement as inconsequential or useless.

Look at 2019 Osun guber election. What made the APC win was the collapse of a structure of a party that isn't known beyond the SW.

Even Tinubu won't say this thing you just said. That Wike's endorsement is not so much useful.

You are right about Makinde. If you listen to his utterances n body language, he is leaving so much room for reconciliation. He is not getting too carried away by Wike's antics. The stakes are different for each member of the G5. For Makinde in particular, there are lots of grassroot politicians in PDP supporting Atiku and they are all fighting Makinde because he doesnt let them control him(good thing), if those ones team up with Folarin and APC for gubernatorial,forget the good works, it may be too much for him to hold on to. So he has to play it safe. Him declaring for ApC, how will he have the audacity to scold those aggrieved pdp members for antiparty activities when they also decide to work for Folarin in future.

This news will so much unsettle Obidients. When I criticized Obi wanting to make concession with Wike, the vitriol from Obidients was just so toxic on this platform. When I opined that Obi should use his newfound goodwill to campaign for all LP aspirants, I was told I am a neophyte in the game of politics. That politics is a game of give and take. When I opined that it won't be nice sacrificing the governorship and National Assembly aspirants of the LP in Rivers state, I was told by Obidients that their only interest is Obi. Any other aspirants under LP is on his own. The truth is without Wike, Obi will still win Rivers state. The margin may not be wide but he will still win.

Lol �. Wherever G5 goes, it is a plus for the APC, it remains a minus for the PDP.

APC- 21 States
PDP - 9 States
G5- 5 States
APGA- 1 State


Depletion of PDP votes is welcome

Congratulations in Advance to Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Senator Kashim Shettima

Olodo.

What do you kuku know? You have a president who never attended University and yet you sing his praises to the highest heavens. You have a Dangote, who is the richest man in Africa, yet professors and intellectuals queue to secure jobs in all his companies.

If not that you know nothing, you'd realise that trade goes on between the states of the federation. All the states look up to Lagos, yet Lagos depends on all the states to supply food. You see say you no get sense?

You call someone who was born into a wealthy home, grew up with wealth and achieved so much a failure? What can people say then about you? At your age, you be Mr. Nobody. No good education, no good background, complete NFA.

I think you need you early morning beans and bread first, to help you reason well.

ATIKU 2023

seunmsg:
If I were you, I will wait for an official announcement before rejoicing. In politics, nothing is done until it is really done.

In APC, we have no problem with whoever they decide to endorse in as much as it is not Atiku. The G-5 working against Atiku in support of any other candidate is more than enough support for Tinubu already.

You should be more worried that Atiku will focus more on the core North where APC is banking on mass illiteracy and religious sentiment to win block votes. Anything asides them supporting APC is a dead blow to APC . The major spoiler for APC is Atiku and the Redcap demon lol. Tinubu was not hoping to get much votes from the South the reason he ignored them during consultation and focused all his energy in the core North which has two powerful candidates contesting for the election .the future is indeed bleak for the bed wetting BAT according to the REDCAP demon of Kano state.

The most unfortunate thing is that all the current Igbo governors instead of tacitly supporting Obi, they are all doing everything to reduce Obi's numbers in the SE. All because they feel he can't win and they want to secure their personal future by supporting whoever they think will win, not whoever is good for the country.

ryloy:
Either way, anything to divide PDP votes

If they support LP= APC Gains
If they Support APC= No much gain except Rivers. Benue, which we have Popular Candidate in APC and the Gov is a failure. APC is going to win Oyo with or without endorsement, while Abia and Enugu has no much say on who their people vote for.

Gain as in winning Rivers state? You make me laugh. Secondly, the popularity of a Guber candidate isn’t transferable to an unpopular presidential candidate.

edungene7:
Agbado that rally was held on a work day a lot of persons were in the office go watch the video and see supporters coming out from there work place to show support when obi walked through the street if it was on a weekend yr mouth would have been shut completely obi is the next GCFR go write it down

But tinubu held his rallies on workdays and pulled more crowd

If this is true, Peter obi and Atiku should also endorse Tinubu and let forget about election.

Some werecious fellow said wike and G5,will merge with Obi...

Wike is wiser than that...
Some werecious iPod thought Wike will nerge with Non-existent candidate.

In the current political dispensation where the bvas machines rein supreme these governors can't really influence most voters in their states they are only powerful if they have the means to rig elections.

It is indirectly

AtikuOkowa:
The game is going as set.

Shehu Sani advised them to endorse whoever they want to edorse

(1)This means any governor,from North or south can go outside party line open or hiden to work for any candidate...no more excuse to give to Northerners or Southerners again.

(2)G5 have never have their supporters increased. It is just illusion. Because their so called so supporters are APC and LP supporters that are pushing them against their party. Once they go for a single candisate,the other party will pullout from supporting them any more and the naration will change.

(3)If G5 go for different candidates,their aim is again meaningless and if would not achieve anything,because the responders will go for PDP unitedly.

(4)There would be major rivals in South,while gradually there is only one candidate from the South.

(5)The final shock greater than that of Tambuwal is to come on february.

let me just laugh at your foolishness...atiku will not win any state in the south south where I come from and the south east .

Tinubu has cut deals with so many politicians and shared everything.

Nigerians don't know what is coming.

This is pure acute malaria induced opinion. May the Lord heal you.

A must if you can bet me!

Abia State = PDP
Benue State = PDP
Enugu State = PDP
Oyo State = APC
Rivers. State = PDP


Wike must lose his value in Nigeria politics.

In an APC state were civil servants were giving a work free day for campaign go grab some sense

If you assert your permutations on how powerful the governors are, which before now, most LP supporters do not agree with, can we say APC will win all the state's they have a sitting Governor

There are key political indices that will shape the 2023 elections:

1. States being govern by political parties (State Governors)

2. States where political parties have huge membership (what you call political structures)

3. The heavyweight politicians (what you call political gladiators...Senators, Honourables, ex-governors..e.t.c..they have their niche of voters they command no matter how little)

4. Waves of youth movements that are hell bent on wrestling power from the old Politicians.

The political parties that manages 3/4 factors above will win the election.

That's why I see more of PDP or APC as the winner of next election...nothing will change.

garfield1:

Save Seyi, non of those governors can deliver their states to APC. Go and ask Amaechi how far with Rivers state.
