Lol. What's with the obsession with governors and decamping by you APC folks. Are all these places you mentioned aware that they are voting Tinubu in 2027? Name 5 APC governors in the entire South that delivered their state to Tinubu in 2023. Yes, you may include APC governors in Yorubaland. I'm waiting. Unless governors in the Southsouth are willing to spill their people's blood to rig Tinubu into power, Tinubu cannot win the Southsouth. Neither can he win the Southeast, even if blood is spilled.
In 2023, Atiku won Osun, Bayelsa and Akwa Ibom in the south. He won those states simply because the state governors worked for him. In 2027, he won’t get 10% in those states. APC won Rivers state in 2023 simply because Gov. Wike backed him. APC will win all South South states in 2027 without sweat.

Tinubu’s supporters call him master strategist but it seems he has met his teacher in political strategy.

Now, before the ADC coalition was announced, some forces ensured the crisis in LP festered almost irreconcilably. Peter Obi’s traducers were happy. They accused him of being incapable of solving the problem of Labour Party and queried how he can be trusted to solve the myriads of Nigeria’s problem as he always claims.

After the coalition was announced, some people have taken it upon themselves to swear that Obi will never be the candidate of the coalition; they are certain the ADC ticket is already at Atiku’s living room. At the other hand, Tinubu has already started scheming on how to scuttle the coalition by either infiltrating it or activating sleeper cells within. What are we even saying? Shebi some people are already in court challenging the interim leadership of the coalition.

But here’s where it gets interesting. While Tinubu is trying to scuttle the ADC leadership (coalition), Peter Obi seems to be having two pronged approach towards the resolution of the Labour Party leadership crisis.

The first is being part of those who enthroned the Nenadi Usman led Interim Leadership.

And secondly, we just saw Datti appear at Abure led leadership’s NEC meeting obviously representing Peter Obi’s interest.

And that’s where Tinubu’s confusion sets in.

Where now does he wait for Peter Obi?

At ADC?

Or in ensuring Nenadi Usman doesn’t get accepted by INEC?

Or ensuring Julius Abure doesn’t accept Obi back into his fold should INEC end up interpreting Supreme Court judgment and end up continuing to recognize Abure?

The big question is how are you sure the LP crisis is not a deliberate manufacturing of Obi and Abure to give the enemies hope?

As it stands now, it seems that whichever way the pendulum swings, Obi is game. Whether ADC, Nenadi Usman or Abure, Obi’s chances remain untouched.

In the end, it seems the ‘master strategist’ will be taught true strategy in 2027.
Delusions
Nenadi Usman is the head of a caretaker committee for a birthday party not LP
INEC only recognises Abure faction
Same Abure was with Wike few weeks back
Same Datti was seated while the NEC meeting condemned the NEC meeting Obi attended as illegal. That's short of accusing Obi of committing anti- party
LP ya no longer available for Obi
Except he wants to walk himself into a trap set to embarrass him

Whether he participate or not. Is non of your business.

The most important thing is that he and Atiku will be on the same ticket in the same party just like in 2019.
same party hahahaha just like how they were defeated easily before 1pm on election day in 2019 🤣🤣🤣

Well, below are the list of APC governors and politicians that couldn’t deliver Tinubu for their party but somehow, we are to believe that all Southern governors will now deliver an even more unpopular Tinubu in 2027. I just hope you all will wake and smell the coffee before its too late.

- Bola Tinubu failed to deliver Lagos for himself

- Bola Tinubu failed to deliver Osun for himself

- Muhammadu Buhari failed to deliver Katsina for Tinubu/APC

- Barr Simon Bako Lalong failed to deliver Plateau for Tinubu/APC

- SP Akpabio failed to deliver Akwa Ibom for Tinubu/APC

- DSP Barau failed to deliver Kano for Tinubu/APC

- NSA Ribadu failed to deliver Adamawa for Tinubu/APC

- Sen. Adams Oshimole failed to deliver Edo for Bola Tinubu/APC

- Speaker Abbas failed to deliver Kaduna for Tinubu/APC

- Sen Kalu failed to deliver Abia for Tinubu/APC

- Hope Uzodinma failed to deliver Imo for Tinubu/APC.

- Sen. Adams Oshimole failed to deliver Edo for Bola Tinubu/APC

- Ganduje failed to deliver Kano for Tinubu/APC

- Gov. Mai Mala failed to deliver Yobe for Tinubu/APC

- Alkali failed to deliver Gombe for Tinubu/APC

- Sen. Wammako failed to deliver Sokoto for Tinubu/APC

- Oyetola failed to deliver Osun for Tinubu/APC

- Dave Umahi failed to deliver Ebonyi for Tinubu/APC

Why didn't tinubu win Kaduna, Kastina, kano ? Didn't the governors there support him ?

Atiku will get at least 40% of SS votes. If he manages to get obi as his VP, he will get more than that. At worst come to worst, SS votes will be divided just like north central. He and obi did it in 2019. Nothing will change.

If you believe that Atiku/obi ticket will not get even the required 25% of votes in the SS. Then I have an estate to sell to you in the Atlantic Ocean.

Tinubu will loose the election in the north not in the South. So, you guys should better go and beg kwakwamso. Even though his votes is only restricted to Kano alone.

It take a massive rigging for wike to deliver rivers to Apc. Even with all the rigging, the opposite parties like Lp still get more than 25%. Apc got 251k votes despite winning majority of the lga while lp and pdp got 175k and 88k votes in rivers respectively.

The SS governors won't even rig even 80% of votes for Tinubu. It won't happen! If it was possible. Wike could have done it in rivers in 2023. But he didn't do it. You can't rig that massively for an unpopular candidate. And tinubu is not from their region. They will be a limit of election rigging they will do for tinubu.

Stop dreaming of non existent votes in the SS. If your Tinubu is popular candidate. He would have done it in 2023, with or without the governors help.
I won’t waste my time arguing further. But take this to the bank. SS is a done deal for APC. NC and SW will also be a clean sweep. Kwakwanso and APC governors will get up 40-45% of NW. Atiku can take NE but we will sweep whatever we can get there as well like it was done in 2023.

Admit it. Tinubu is very unpopular among the Southern electorates. Go to any Southsouth state and confirm. Some of you Yorubas are just trying to force a Southern alliance that does not exist in reality. You are banking on governors to rig but you will be disappointed. Tinubu is finding it very difficult to consolidate that Southern alliance he desperately seeks and for good reasons. First, because he was the Muslim-Muslim candidate in 2023 that got delivered by the North and secondly, because of his role in sabotaging another Southerner in 2015. I haven't even included his woeful performance into the equation. Unlike in 2023, Tinubu has now been tested and has failed.

Done deal by who and who ? cheesy cheesy.

Atiku obi ticket will get more than required 25% votes and even the the maximum and minimum of 50% of SS votes. Let tinubu take 50%, even 50% is much for tinubu that is , if the governors decides to rig the election for him.

SS and NC votes will be divided. No political parties will get a landslide victory. It won't happen. So , you continue in delusion. Is allowed.

Datti wants to contest, he doesn't want to bea second fiddle again same way obi didn't want to be a second fiddle in 2023.

If datti secures the ticket from abure which is very likely and obi doesn't get the ADC ticket which is very likely too obi will have no choice than to deputies atiku or datti and look for another party.

Its barely two years to election and a serious presidential candidate is still sitting on the fence as to were to contest, by now we oight to have been counting how many governors, senators, hor members are with obi but no, he's still been played around.
Lol!

Lolzz.
Bunch of jokers.

By the time he is done dribbling, he would drible himself join and then end up losing the ball to the opponent.
In movie making we say “make it real.”

So, Abure is simply making it real.

Relax! Una go learn political strategy.

He even went further by saying that NC central votes is a clean sweep ? Clean sweep by who ?

The same NC votes where tinubu couldn't even get 50% of total votes casted despite winning the region.

Tinubu got 1.7 million votes total votes casted in NC while Obi and Atiku got 1.4 and 1 million votes respectively. This is the region he says that tinubu will get a clean sweep cheesy

If Atiku obi is on the same ticket in 2027. They will beat Apc in the north central.
