4. Senator David Mark: The Senate was once considered the fortress of Senator David Mark. This is because aside spending consecutive 20 years (1999-2019) there, he also led the Senate for consecutive 8 years - becoming the longest serving Senate President in Nigeria's history.

Candidly, I wasn't shocked by the result, but I was disappointed that PDP allowed avoidable crisis to cause division which affected our votes.

Hahaha, I drank for almost a month after Tinubu was declared, no work just chilling. The celebration wasn't actually about Tinubu winning but the suggestion of Muslim Muslim ticket, precisely Shettima

Just instincts suggestions and winning formula. I was glad it came true

We are looking forward for better Nigeria with Tinubu's presidency

Although some on the list may have done their bit, but i am sure they wished they could have done so much more. Because with all the luck they had finding themselves in the corridors of power one way or the other, didn't really transcend into the quality of leadership as expected.

The moments Kwankwaso went his way. The moment G5 came out of PDP.

Bro, immediately Kwankwanso declared, he had an interview which the interview was so glaring he was contesting to be a saboteur to Atiku.

I felt that it was not a good idea for PDP not to manage the G5, Kwankwaso and Peter Obi issues. Though G5 was the biggest setback...

Should I say Atiku goofed or he his not destined to be Nigeria president cos this election would have made him the president had he put Pdp house in order .

Obi, Kwankwanso, and G5 departure is just too heavy for a political party

Kwankwaso may not even be President should Asiwaju spend 8 years... A younger person from the region may prop up! Personally, I feel we need to halt this recycling! Kwankwaso has been in the system since 1991, he will be 70 in 2027 and 74 in 2031... That is way past his prime!

We may need a President in his 50s or late 40s...
