But you believe that Atiku, El rufai and Amaechi are going to deal with Tinubu undecided
no not at all.it is only Nigerians that can chose to stop tinubu thru any party.they did it in 2023 Abi u no see am.i am only letting u guys know this power does not belong to one governor,or senator.i will never agree to that.Im from delta state,sherif is not feeding me,he cannot give me orders them no born am well,a lot of people are like me.he can only order around those he is feeding.i hope u understand me now.

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
it is a plus that a gov defects to a party,if it wasn’t there won’t be celebrations.but does that defection give the gov the powers to deliver the entire state no sir.On Election Day,Govs will be in their wards and maybe LG,what is happening in other LGs is totally out of their control.na phone call dem go Dey make.i went far into politics some of una just Dey nairaland Dey comment.this game no easy like that.some of this govs no get level the way una Dey see am

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?
If a sitting Governor can be defeated,
what again are you saying

Douye Diri...Wike’s slave is also joining APC. Wonders shall never end
When he was fighting Wike he was an hero to you guys the obedient, but now that he is joining APC he is now Wike slave. You all should keep deceiving yourselves you hear. I stopped taking you guys seriously when I knew you do not even mean well for your country, rather you all choose to be selfish chasing your selfish desires and anyone who has a contrary opinion to yours is a bad person.

Peter Obi will win the overwhelming S/S bro.

Take that to the Bank.
In 2023, with Muslim Muslim ticket, Obi lost Rivers and struggled in Akwa Ibom. That's 2 out of 6.
In some other states, Tinubu got the required 25%.

In 2027, with the way Obi is unravelling way before then, he will struggle to win 2 states.

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.
You're very right. It seems Northerners are ganging up against Tinubu second term bid. The southerner must resist that. South must complete their 8yrs tenure

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
I did not ask about Rome.

if tinubu is a winner and you feel it is the reason governors are decamping to APC, how has tinubu used this "political will" to win 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?

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.
according to you
AutoConsult:
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.
how will being in PDP prevent Diri from getting a second term?

It's no news

I saw it coming many weeks ago.

Let everybody join APC because it will definitely explode from within.

A new party will be taking over nationally.

Save this here

You are jittery and justifiably so.

Obi got over 6m votes without any structure.

Tinubu got over 8m votes, lowest votes ever scored by any presidential aspirant. With all the bullion vans, structure, governors, senators, agberos, ifa priests, fake bishops etc, tinubu struggled in a way he had never. Dude has no organic following even in his SW.

I don't know how and what he's gonna campaign with in 2027 ooo, because people for SW don gather stone dey wait am.

Rigging? Na rig and roast come 2027!

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.


🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Foolish talk.. So it is obi that didn't conduct local government elections in 8 years that will win our electoral system will automatically become world class abi? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Oga make una rest..

ur calculations shows that u don’t know what politics is all about.in 2023,how many governors could win their states?Why do u think a Govs defection mean he has won the state.
You understand politics more than all these Governors that are defecting, right?

Who would have thought APC would win Edo Gov election just last year, after than massive turnup for LP in 2023

nah.I understand the rhetorics of rigging and manipulations bro.My state gig sherif said he was joining apc to connect delta state to Abuja.that’s laughable.U can support and work for tinubu without joining apc.wike is doing it.mark todays date,Thgs will not go the way most of these govs expect.in akwa ibom,Udom didn’t move,in delta ibori didn’t move.this game go soon set.im a frontline politician rose to the level of house of assembly but quitted because I realize I do better in business.
