Apparently, everyone just wanna be at a party that's most likely to return them back to office. It's nothing personal. It's just politics.

Who wants to align with a loser? By the way on whose platform is Obi contesting in 2027?
Obi himself does not know!
if tinubu is a winner and you feel it is the reason governors are decamping to APC, how has tinubu won against corruption, nepotism, cronyism, hunger, unemployment, hardship, poverty, inflation, wasteful government spending, budget padding, insecurity, bad governance, failing public infrastructure, poor medial services and falling standard of education?

Okay, continue to console yourself. You think it's easy to win a state under the watch of a sitting Gov with all the resources at his disposal?
Obi won same no of states as Tinubu without a single governor

I'm sure anyone would rather be at a party that is settled and has direction than be at a Party like PDP. APC has been capturing States non stop. Nothing stops them from taking Bayelsa too in a fair election. So why not go there, bring a chunk of the existing structure of PDP with you, then leverage on the APC structure to ensure your victory is 100%. For me, it's a well-thought-through.

IF NOTHING BUT AT LEAST TO SEND A MESSAGE TO THE NORTHERNERS THAT TINUBU IS NOT GOODLUCK JONATHAN AND THAT 'ALL DEMON COUNCIL' (ADC) AGAINST TINUBU FOR 2027 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION WILL FAIL.
It baffles me how you guys reason. Was Tinubu a northerner when he led APC to oust a southerner GEJ?

Abeg this is a lie, gej no do up to this, all the opposition governors are decamping to APC and you are saying gej did more than this. Gej that even lost five governors to the opposition ?
By 2027 I can only see makinde and Soludo in opposition but while their body will be in opposition, their soul will be in APC.

LoL...😁😁😁you guys fail to know that it is not about winning a state , rather it is about delivering at least 25percent of total votes for PBAT ...wake up and smell the coffee

baba should I begin to name sitting govs that couldnt win their states in 2023.Is it that u forget so quickly or u we’re not upto 18 in 2023.Okowa as a sitting gov and a vp candidate couldnt win his ward.Una funny.the 12 states Obi won was any of them LP state.

Rome was not built in a day..so don't expect all you mentioned to be fixed in a day all at once...PBAT is the only president that has shown the political will to bring into fruition policies that will gradually position the country for better days ahead

Lanruze:
Full blown confrontation between the South & North, however for the south south new entrants in the APC, PBAT will be thoroughly betrayed.

Peter Obi will spilt the vote in the south south and NC I am very very sure of this.

God keep us !

😁😁😁😁 The usual cries of a man in defeat...You and I know there has never been any free and fair election in Nigeria since 1999 till date ...every player does everything possible to outsmart his adversaries....So why the cry now ? Are you just waking up to the realities of time ?
Lanruze:
The only person I blame is the person that gave you a like.

The Coalition will place Peter Obi Infront of Tinubu and the decision will be made by Nigerians.

I repeat in a free and fair election which the coalition knows is impossible Tinubu will not score 30%.

We are ready, and once it's 2026. You will see the realignment.

Console yourself, we are unshaken.

2023 was a grand mistake, Nigerians were waiting for the conclusion of the paper works by 2027 Tinubu will be in Bordillion with his Grandchildren in peace.
Re: Bayelsa PDP Lawmakers Endorse Diri’s Defection To APC by Lanruze: 2:28am On Jun 30, 2025
Peter Obi will win the overwhelming S/S bro.

Take that to the Bank.





MrMcJay:
The bolded is not likely in the South South. Tinubu will win in the SS.
But in the South East, Peter Obi will win while Tinubu MAY get the required 25%.

In the North, the votes will be split across several candidates.
There are 3 kinds of politicians in the North.
A. Those who want power to return now. Atiku and Elrufai's people.
B. Those who want to wait for power to return in 2027 and are positioning for it. Tinubu's people.
C. Those who want to support Obi but can't wait for 8 years.

Tinubu is currently throwing spoilers in A and B and also convincing them to join B.
Re: Bayelsa PDP Lawmakers Endorse Diri’s Defection To APC by Lanruze: 2:32am On Jun 30, 2025
You even had to use emojis.

Anyway, your arguments will be effective only if you know so.ething we dont know.

Tinubu will be miserable third not even second, let's see.

At this point the military should end this circus we call democracy in Nigeria. Clearly, democracy as we know it isn't for Nigeria.

Free and fair elections are the hallmark of democratic governance but ours is never free and fair.

Politicians are leaving their parties in droves to the ruling APC and we all know it is not out of their quest to better the country.

It is finished. I finally give up.
You are committing treason and your submission will be forwarded to the DSS for further actions.

OBI people will be like

1.He has just one vote

2.Its APC versus Nigerians(since DIRI and his supporters are FROM ZAMBIA


BUT

They will jubilate if he had joined OBIdients and forget about the 2 points above.


BUT

Why is OBI not receiving anyone to his camp?...Instead ,people are just abandoning himhuh?
Did you Obi told you that he is contesting in 2027?
In 2023 how many governors, law markers supported Obi?
U think that all these politicians that are decamping to APC are doing that because they love Tinubu, if u think they are decamping because they love Tinubu then u don't understand Nigeria politics.

Let's watch out how event will unfold in 2027

This same Diri that was fighting Wike from doing rally for Mr President in his state a few months ago, Lol. Anyways, I feel like there's a southern solidarity for Tinubu.
It is no joke when I said all those aspiring to be politicians to start studying Tinubu. Forget his inadequacies', baba is the smartest politician in Nigeria.

Tinubu winning the second time is better than having a good electoral system put in place in Nigeria.


In fact, we will make progress if Tinubu wins another election than if we fix our electoral system.


Let's continue to create strong men in our society and destroy all our institutions. That will make Nigeria a great country you know.


By the time these politicians will be through with you Nigerians in Nigeria, you will realize that you have been going in circles all these years.

The reason they couldn't win their states in 2023 was because they was a federal government led by Buhari's cabal who was confused on who to support. They didn't want Tinubu.

Now you have a Tinubu les federal government that will give the governor's all the federal support and federal might during the election
