ONLY GOD KNOWS - Is Shettima and Kwankwaso from different region in the north? - If yes, whose region has more voting strength to the other? I ask because I'm thinking maybe Tinubu has sensed that 40 or 50 percent of his tribesmen votes can't win him election. Note: I said this because Obi welds great influence in Tinubu's tribe than Tinubu welds in Obi's land. And Obi is more popular than Atiku in the west, so he(Tinubu) wants to bring in a candidate from a region with great voting strength (Kwankwaso) because maybe he fears an Atiku/Obi merger happening (which of course will lead to his defeat). Without being bais, any body that knows deep about Nigerian politics will agree that an Atiku/Obi coalition will beat Tinubu/Shettima hands down. Anybody that says otherwise is either ignorant or a mole. (The former coalition did great job in 2019 and could have won save for Buhari's cult like followership in the North, which off course Tinubu doesn't have) If you notice, Tinubu waited until Atiku picked his vice (super paperweight Okowa) before settling for Shettima (I think he decided to pick Shettima afterall because Atiku's vice(Okowa) had minus 99 percent influence for PDP, even Obi won in Okowa's region) not because Shettima had any significant influence in his zone. To cut it short, I'd say; any coalition that is not Atiku/Obi is dead on arrival (this is the only merger than can bring the ruling party down) Obi needs to mellow down and agree to deputize Atiku. And Atiku should not shoot himself in the foot again by picking a paperweight vice like Rotimi Amaechi, if not tinubu will win by a landslide. Just my thoughts (I stand to be corrected). pardon my grammatical errors[/quote] |

ComeComing:Atiku should support Obi till 2031. Obi will then support Atiku come 2031, simple arithmetic |

At least, he can deliver Kano and influence things in the NW. As it stands, Shetima’s governor and Senator have declared war against the administration in which Shettima is the vice president. |

You are very correct, but the APC are really getting ready for any eventuality. |

Tinubu is so unpopular that he's counting on the popularity of others to retain him as president. No wonder he's busy courting governors while alienating himself from their people. No wonder he thinks governors who couldn't deliver their states for him in 2023 were not influential, forgetting that he was the one on the ballot and his unpopularity even cost them political capital. In 2027, neither Shettima nor Kwankwaso's popularity will be politically transferable, at least not significantly and it has nothing to do with them. The North have seen how "influential" Shettima was under Tinubu. A presidential candidate that does not have his own Southern zone in the bag will not be carried again by the North in 2027. He has been tested and have failed. |

Kwankwaso is more popular than Shettima by far! And Kwankwaso’s state alone can almost cancel out what opposition candidate can muster in the entire Northeast (Shettima’s zone). But the big question is, will Kano voters vote for a Tinubu/Kwankwaso ticket just because Kwankwaso defected to APC? Are Kano voters that daft? I guess not. It’s like expecting Ndi Anambra or Southeast to vote for Tinubu because Peter Obi defected to APC. Because as popular as Peter Obi is, one wrong step will kill all of his popularity in the entire Southeast in 24hrs. But maybe it’s not like that in Kano. Maybe Kano people are easily led by their noses and told where to thumbprint. But all this simply betrays one thing - that Tinubu is scared to his pampers. While his supporters litter here saying things to excite themselves, Tinubu knows that the reality on ground says something different. In 2027, those defecting to APC won’t attract much votes to Tinubu; especially in the Southsouth. You would be daft to think Tinubu will win Delta because the governor defected. |

Kwankwaso is significantley more powerful than Shetima as he can deliver Kano (which has more votes than the entire south east), Jigawa, and all north west states. He also influences the northeast, where Hausa-Fulani are the largest tribe when compared to Kanuri. He also has no Boko Haram suspicious baggage and no one has ever accused him of being a sponsor of terrorists or even an extremist, for that matter. I am not saying Shettima knows anything about Boko Haram, but many people think he does. But I believe Shettima as a person is a better candidate when it comes to knowledge, performance, and worldview, as he was a bank manager who lived in Lagos and is very close to so many Igbos and other southerners. Shettima is also a very very intelligent man, and way less prideful than him |

Yes, Kwankwanso is replacing Shettima for 2027... Kwankwanso is OBJ boy BUT the north is not settling for a VP because that office is not relevant. |

This is the ignorance of most southern Nigerians displayed in 4D. You don’t even know which region the VP and RMK come from? No wonder when appointments are done to reflect the 6 geopolitical regions southerners shout “Northerners dominate” |

PO will never be vice he has proven himself of very high electability. Kwankwas should settle for vp |

How is Obi more popular than Tinubu in Tinubus region? ![]() |
| Re: Is Kwankwaso More Popular Than Shettima In The North? by MorataFC: 2:18pm On Jul 01, 2025 |
Who is Shettima? ![]() Op doesn't understand the meaning of 'popular'. Obi may garner more votes in the West than Atiku, but he is by no means more popular than Atiku. |

All we want is a correct president that can handle the situation of economy , security and betterment of Nigerians as a whole. |
| Re: Is Kwankwaso More Popular Than Shettima In The North? by cjfavour(m): 2:19pm On Jul 01, 2025 |
You’re on point bro. To me it’s either PO agrees to deputies atiku or he should not contest at all in 2027. If he can’t win Tinubu when he was not in power, he can’t win him when he’s in power. Simple political calculation. He either contest as atiku’s vice or he should forget about it. Amechi as atiku’s vice is dead on arrival. Even amechi knows this. ComeComing: |

This is the beginning of the end of the Emilakon criminal adventure. When you feel you have mastered the game, that's when the game will play tricks on you. SOME GAMES YOU PLAY, SOME GAMES PLAY YOU. That's exactly what will play out in 2027. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 |

KWANKWASO IS MORE POPULAR. THIS IS NOT EVEN UP FOR DEBATE. ASIDES BUHARI, NO LIVING NORTHERNER HAS THE KIND OF CULT FOLLOWERSHIP THAT KWANKWASO HAS. THE MAN SHOULD HAVE BEEN PRESIDENT OF NORTHERN NIGERIA WAS A COUNTRY ON ITS OWN. AND FOR 2027, APC IS IN A BIG MESS ALREADY. THE PARTY WILL IMPLODE INTERNALLY |
| Re: Is Kwankwaso More Popular Than Shettima In The North? by ajailer(m): 2:20pm On Jul 01, 2025 |
Kwankwaso has more influence, Kwankwaso is from NW, while Shetima is from NE. Your analysis seems right, but if PBAT is able to win a second term, then the guy is a confirmed demi god in politics. I am just looking at how PBAT will play the game to make Shetima step down for Kwankwaso without the north feeling that they are being used as an end to a means, cos those guys are egoistical. For the coalition, forget the noise, the ticket will still be Atiku/Obi. But no one should think they can solve Nigeria's problems in 8 years, what we need at this time is a leader who is bold enough to do his own little bit of taking away the influence of the cabals over this country, which the president is doing right now. PO does not have that kind of clout, he will be overwhelmed if he is lucky to be the president, I can't even imagine the state of things he will leave Nigeria. Atiku will only come to entrench the Fulani hold over Nigeria, so I see him as the worst of this three guys. Lastly, we still need a southerner on that seat for another 4 years, so that they can do their bit before these Fula guys come again with their evil agenda. |

And you an Igbo who knows nothing about Nigeria polirics is making this comment ? This is aside every decision you made in the past 16 years as been nothing but a fallacy just like this new one. I hope you factor in rigging so you won't start wailing after the election because if i hear any complain ehn. AMINDA: |

Without an Atiku/Obi ticket in 2027, Tinubu will win the election even if he choose Bello Turji as running mate. A Peter Obi on the ballot as presidential candidate is Tinubu’s surest way to second tenure. |

Yes He was 4th in the last presidential elections with 1.4 million votes. Tinubu allegedly got 8.7million votes |
| Re: Is Kwankwaso More Popular Than Shettima In The North? by Bendeco02: 2:23pm On Jul 01, 2025 |
YES because Kwakwanso is from the major region in the North which is North West (Hausa) while shettima is from minority Kanuri tribe, Borno state. Though kwakwanso is fulani but he is from Kano, so he takes advantage of Hausa population politically. |
| Re: Is Kwankwaso More Popular Than Shettima In The North? by alizma: 2:23pm On Jul 01, 2025 |
They are almost at per but you know, at this point, Shettima can only get angry if dropped but his vote will remain intact for APC or he risk being politically irrelevant for 4years should APC retain power. So replacing him with kwakwanso is a plus in number |
