The rent seeking class in the north will support Amaechi whom they see as very pliable and subservient to the north. Amaechi's history of subservience to the north is there to see starting from his days as Rivers state governor and a major funding party to the APC. As minister for close to 8ys, Amaechi pandered more to the north. Amaechi is the preferred southern candidate that the cabal wanted to replace Buhari until the Emilokan Tsunami hit the APC primaries.


Even some obidient imbes in the SE will switch to Amaechi after dumping Obi as Amaechi will appeal to their tribalism wet dreams by deploying his usual 'I am an Ibo man from Rivers. Ikwere is Ibo " to get those ones in the yeast to support his candidacy .

One thing is sure and that Amaechi will ensure Obi ends up as a distant fourth place.
if you don't quote obi and SE, your day will never end well.

take note

Rotimi Amaechi will emerge as the SDP Presidential candidate with El Rufai as his running mate.

The Buhari cabal will back Amaechi whoo is expected to do one term and then hand power back to a northern candidate .

Will Amaechi agree to do one term? Can El-Rufai explain rumors about him being a murderer of Kaduna christians?

The two of them should also assure Nigerians that this SDP ticket will not divide the current opposition thereby leading to the return of the young Atinuke like what happened last time.

Lol. Two topics about Elrufai in a single day before 10a.m. You guys should take it easy. I thought we all agreed that Elrufai is irrelevant? The Lagos bloc of the Southwest is becoming jittery. Well, it's not too late for Tinubu to reconcile with the other two regions in the South. That will be his only pathway to re-election.

Ok.

What happens now that the cabal is moving to SDP and with a Rotimi Amaechi candidacy emerging?

What I know is that Amaechi will do well in some core NW states but will fail woefully in the NE, NC , SS and SW .

Kwanwasso , Bala Mohammed and Atiku will be dragging the NW and NE but will have zero impact outside the NE and NW.

Obi will be relegated to his tribal enclave in the SE and will do woefully outside of it.

PDP SS and NC faction that will emerge will even adopt BAT as their candidate.
Good analysis, now you see, 2023 scenario is about to play out again if this analysis is real.

Now tell me who is el-rufai working for?

I am the OP and I predicted this move .

2027 is still far. We will analyse politics when it's time for elections. For now, politicians are just regrouping and it is insane to start making assumptions.


PS: I won't reply you again
Amaechi just defected to SDP .

That's why you can't see beyond your nose.


It's apparently glaring that a merger won't work for the simple reason there are too many over ambitious candidates out there not to make it work


Obi in LP (that's if Abure doesn't mess him up

Atiku is still shopping for an SPV knowing very well that Wike will never see to Atiku ever getting the PDP ticket .

Then there's Kwankwaso and his own movement in the NW.

Add Amaechi who contested the APC Presidential ticket and came second after Tinubu .


Do you guys think such an over ambitious bunch can ever come together in a merger ?


Their over ambition will not allow for such and will be the reason that the scenario of 2023 is repeated for the sole benefit of Tinubu.
Leave them, it is already a walkover for Tinubu. Those you mentioned are desperate power seeking politicians. Pdp and labour party chieftains and elected representatives have been moving to Apc unlike in 2014 where five serving governors and numerous federal and state lawmakers defecting to the newly formed Apc. Failure is waiting for them. Ameachi that has been rendered useless by Wike in rivers is the one to be the SDP presidential candidate.

I love the fact dt u said "who is expected to do one term and hand power back"; but is that reliable??

Jonathan sef that was supposed to do only thing one term and "hand power back" reneged on d pdp gentleman's agreement.

Will amaechi - or any other southern nigerian politician at that - agree be trusted to abide by a 'gentleman agreement' to do a single term - to complete the south's double term?? The answer is a capital NO!

The north that I know are more politically suave than the rest of the south combined.
Why will they risk an amaechi's (potential) 2 terms (2027-2035) when they could patiently allow tinubu runnout his remaining term (in 2031) and then d power returns to them (north) on a platter.

Trust me, the cabal won't take that risk!

Obasanjo wey do 2 complete term sef was still scheming to go for the 3rd, how much less an amaechi's single term.
cool

El Rufai couldn't fully deliver Kaduna in 2023. The votes for PDP and LP outweighed APC votes. Amaechi doesn't seem to have a huge impact on Rivers politics right now. Miracles happen though.
