It doesn't nullify the fact that out of the remaining states that should have voted for PDP after Obi left PDP, 5 of them still voted against PDP in protest in support of Wike
Which states

Even rivers state voted for obi, wike would have rigged it for pdp, instead he rigged it for apc

More than 5 states sef. How can anyone say a man who ran a presidential campaign has no voice outside his state. Minus the shenanigans played by Tambuwal and Atiku, Wike was in the driving seat to Win the primaries.

If Wike was deputy pdp will win it’s easy for pdp Wike to bring 2m vote and add to Atiku 6.5m

How many states did Okowa win for Atiku? Arrogance and pride is what killed Atiku as a vice president to obasanjo and what cost him both 2019 and 2023 elections and it's what is going to finally humiliate him out of Nigeria politics for good if he mistakenly run again in 2027 as SDP candidate. You can see the pride in not admitting he made a mistake by not picking Wike in he should have begged him to be on the ticket with him because that was the winning ticket but Atiku felt he doesn't need anybody to add value to his candidacy at the time and that was how he would have ruled us like a know-it-all leader
I luv ur points but you have not Answered my Question na.Do you think Those G5 Governors wud hv Won there State for Him?

Everyone was tired of clueless Buhari and his APC thieves. We were in PH waiting for the news of Wike to be announced as the V.P candidate. We were ready. We knew the election would be over within hours because that was a winning team.
Sadly the news came negative. Atiku Abubakar have made a wrong choice, a political blunder and have lost the presidency. The thin line between Atiku and Aso Villa has been cut off by that singular act because he can not win election with someone like Okowa who is a paper weight politician.
Atikus arrogance cost him the chances of being Mr President today. He lost it due to arrogance, same way Kwankwaso lost to become president after Peter Obi, had he agreed to deputise him, but NO.....the Hausa/Fulani tribes are very proud and arrogant. Atiku can be president in his next world, not this one again, unfortunately.

It Is Fixed. Tinubu Is OTP. One Term President
So who will win next election if tinubu is otp?

Firstly there wouldn't have been anything like G5 Governors to begin with and that would have changed the dynamics of the election and if they they couldn't all win their state for him Wike would've won his own state and the others could have gotten him more votes to probably surpassed Tinubu's votes if God wanted him to win but God was on the side of Tinubu because he had sacrificed more as a leader than all the other contenders and had the capacity to do better than Atiku as Peter Obi is a wannabe heavy weight politician but he was clearly outclassed by all the contenders so there was no contest from him that could challenge Tinubu or Atiku or Kwakwanso if pitched one on one against each of them without either of them in the race he wouldn't be able to defeat any of them.

Apart from rivers state, wike did not have goodwill anywhere. Atiku best choice would have been Peter obi. He would have won the election.

And I believe sincerely that, had you read to understand, you'll remember before typing this comment that he (Seyi Makinde) said that; Let us "appeal" to Governor Wike.

GSM should remember that prior to the primary election, Wike vowed never to e a vice president to anyone 🤔. That he will never be a second citizen. 😉

I meant Atiku and Wike as vice pre. I am sure many of you will vote them and even be praising his arrogancy if he is presently a VP with Atiku as president .

Sadly, this is true!

God already destined Tinubu to be president, so stubbornness blinded Atiku
My brother the issue is from wike..When Atiku won the primary election, he went straight to meet Wike to sort his support and wike said he will support anybody that emerge in PDP.So does he keep his word? NO, Wike is proud and arrogant

Oga you are literally wrong with all your epistle..The reason why Atiku lost last election is simple, OBI factor, the best combination last election is Atiku and Obi before 12 P.M they would have declare PDP the winner.. Obi saved Tinubu even if Atiku used Wike, the only state wike would deliver is rivers states and at most the votes he will deliver won't be up to 300k as he gave Tinubu and that will not make Atiku to win the election

Oga getting more votes from rivers state will not make Atiku win the election..You guys overlooked the main issue and trivalize minor issue..The main issue is Obi factor and if Obi was not in the game, all the states won by obi would have been won by PDP because those state is traditionally PDP state, south eastern states, south south state, Benue state, jos,nassarawa and FCT

As long as he didn't still surpass Atiku or PDP vote tally national he wasn't as big a factor as you want to think. If there was no crisis of a northerner Atiku trying to be president after a northerner Buhari 8 years which resulted in a fragmented PDP that created G5 Governors who publicly worked against PDP and Atiku then Peter Obi could never have won those states with already weak governors which was why he couldn't win River and Oyo State. All the South eastern states vote along tribal line as Obi is their only son in the race which also translated in the states he won outside of South East because those states had large Igbo residents.

You guys overrate Peter Obi but he is still a mediocre politician besides those he competed against so without problems in PDP Peter Obi couldn't have won those states or get such number of votes.

If u understand politics. U will know even one vote is a Win. Imagine insane numbers he gave GEJ during 2015 elections in rivers, tokless of wen he is in dat ticket. In d SS he had more influence dan okowa. He was in top 3 performing govs in nigeria den. Just add votes tinubu got in Rivers to atiku n see some magic. Every leader in any hamlet, counts

Was Okowa a better alternative?
Atiku is the major problem of PDP. How on earth did he think he could have pulled through with Okowa?

Now, I correctly understand your limits sir. There's a wide sea of meaning between "Appeal" and "Apology" if you're going to care enough to read up. But trust me, you're likely going to get more defensive thereby dancing with lesser decorum.

if you like twist it to satisfy your ego, it's your business. But the bottom line is that Wike boosted that he will never be a VP and later he went lobbying.

Is God not wonderful that people leave the Subject at hand and jump off throwing imaginary stone at a fast-paced moving Object. If I may remind you sir, His Excellency Nyesom Wike was never my subject, rather Governor Seyi Makinde (the speaker who had both Wike and a group of others as his own subject of interview).

I must now thank you for having us derail the thread off-track.
