Oshiomhole won his polling unit, ward, LGA, district overwhelming in the same state. Go sleep joor
Obaseki moved to an opposition party, yet made a public spectacle of Osho and his federal might

So who are your most popular SS politicians let us put them to the test you put Wike Tru here let see if any will do quarter as good as Wike


Penguin2:
Does this your SS include Edo? Can Wike get 5 unmobilized supporters if he goes to Benin today?

Can Wike walk in the streets of Yenegoa without being pelted with pebbles?

Can Wike walk the streets of Asaba in Delta? Or even Warri?

Except he goes with Akpabio, can Wike draw out 50 people on his accord if he’s in Uyo?

How many people rate him in Calabar?

Even in his own Port Harcourt, nobody rates Wike.

So, where in Southsouth is Wike popular?

I want facts, figures, numbers and pictures if possible, and not conjectures.

Somebody above had given fact. Nobody rate Wike in PH? Person delivered all elective positions in Rivers and also delivered the presidential election to Tinubu yet they don't rate him oooo. Ameachi as sitting gov and a campaign dg got a patry 69k votes apc. He didn't do any better in 2019. Apart from Oshiomhole who in the list has been elected outside his state? Oga Wike popular ooo biko.
Re: The Most Popular and influential Politicians From South South by Exclusive101: 3:09am On Jul 26, 2023
So Amechi controls the army under Ebele Jonathan ? May God deliver your soul from hate. Amechi wey care if you wail to death right this minute.


vanitybutiwanti:
What makes Amaechi a decent man? I know you hate wike but that doesn't change the fact that Amaechi is the biggest thief that ever ruled Rivers, during His tenure, there was a month Rivers got 100b from the FG, he still went on to steal as minister of transportation, who sent soldiers to kill people in Abonema? There's nothing descent about a man that is rumored to be a faggg, he doesn't have the people on his side that's why he was unable to win elections in Rivers. Only gullible people in Rivers believe Amaechi is a decent man

AmazingELixir:
grin

Is it thesame Amaechi that nearly finished Rivers People in 2015 elections with fierce looking soldiers who were shooting and snatching ballot boxes or the one that said he doesn’t like money yet cannot account for proceeds of the sale of Rivers state assets...Youngman stop reasoning upside down.

Better wake up..sui generis indeed. grin
You can puncture my point without being unruly.

In your attempt at making your point you ended up twisting issue.

In 2015, Amaechi never deployed soldiers to snatch ballot boxes as you rightly opined. And couldn't have. In 2015, Jonathan was still holding stint and couldn't have approved soldiers to a man who was opposed to his bid at re-election.

The issue you cited transpired in 2019. And APC didn't have a candidate in the said election.
Re: The Most Popular and influential Politicians From South South by Thanks2God: 7:46am On Jul 26, 2023
Don't mind him, he's mentioning Omo-Agege but failed to Acknowledge Delta State Ex-Gov Okowa who dismantled the combined forces of Both Omo-Agege and Almighty Ibori Political Grip on the state affairs.
He also failed to Acknowledge the Edo Gov Obaseki that Resisted the encroachment of Balablu Lagos politics into Edo state.

kcnwaigbo:
Emmanuel Udom is far more popular and influential in Akwa Ibom compared to Godwin Akpabio.

Furthermore Ex-Governor Ifeanyi Okowa gave Ibori the very first defeat of his political career.The APC candidate despite all the noise could not even make any headway in the Governorship elections.

E be like so.
Re: The Most Popular and influential Politicians From South South by waveman2: 7:52am On Jul 26, 2023
GEJ is the most popular politician in the south south,the way tinubu is to the south west and Buhari is to the North east and North West.
SmartPolician:
The most popular politician from the South South remains Goodluck Jonathan.

You cannot claim to be popular if you haven't been elected into a public office with votes outside your state of origin.

All those politicians listed up there fall into the same category.
Re: The Most Popular and influential Politicians From South South by waveman2: 8:03am On Jul 26, 2023
Bros obi won these places doesn't make him popular their,we only had 3 choices and he was the best.
ehikwe22:
You don't use Obi to compare popularity here. Obi's case is completely a different game. Absolutely everybody from the South South and South East will lose against Obi in these regions. They only have to rig to win their local governments. Oshiomole lost Edo too. Wike lost Rivers and his rigging is the most laughable - the lost was too much that it was difficult to be rigged

One thing I found out about you is that you like to lie to yourself a lot.

This was how you were assigning funny figures to Atiku and Tinubu in the Southeast and Southsouth before the elections; I told you it won’t happen but you argued you a are a professor of ‘real politick’.

What later happened? Tinubu and Atiku both struggled to get up to 5% of votes cast in the entire southeast. Southsouth wasn’t any different either but for INEC’s rigging.

Now you are back with another round of self deception.

I can take what you said about other people because they appear realistic but how did you arrive at your conclusion about Wike?

Let me tell you the reality on ground, like I told you before the elections, Wike is the most hated politician in Rivers State in particular, and the entire Southsouth in general, as of today. If he contests in a free and fair House of Assembly election today, he would fail even if his opponent is a stone.

What you are mistaking for popularity is just his network of criminal structure within the PDP across some Southsouth states. But for the fact that these guys are associating with him alone, they have lost popularity just like Wike.

Things were even better for Wike before the election. But after doing what he did during the election, he buried himself by himself. That’s why he’s struggling to get a post in Tinubu’s govt so he can stay relevant.

As you didn’t before the election, I don’t expect you to believe what I’ve said here, not like I care, I just wanted to state the facts as they are; like I always do.
Please, are you in the US?
