I pray Peter Obi gets the ADC ticket in 2027. The election will be over before 10 am. The ADC party is all noise and no structure. Now I see why even Atiku is skeptical of joining the party after resigning from PDP.

Did ADC not field candidates for these elections?

Seems Atiku realized the folly of ADC and refused to campaign for their candidates. Even in Adamawa, Atiku was not there.

El Rufai campaigned in Kaduna, ADC and SDP lost. Obi campaigned in Anambra, and APGA took the day.

Gradually, the weightlessness of ADC is becoming obvious.

Lolzzzz! When them tell them say them no understand or sabi politics them go dey cry up and down ... They should go and learn. Just like Dangote said few years ago that people wanting to be like him should understand that he has been building his business for over 30years despite say e see better money start out . While some will be living on social media abusing government for even things they messed up themselves in their own lives. I see people always pointing to the government Everytime as failures

The people voting are combination of Ukranians and Russians.

Let them continue to grope in their chosen darkness.

Botswana people are the ones voting for APC cos Nigerians are not, according to our bitter people. If we want change in 2027, then not this so called ADC people who are angry of not been in power again.

That one might be hospitalized now. Instead to be fighting how his northerners can be educated and stop almajari every corner of Nigeria but just want power by all means. El rufai was really humbled.

El rufai was humiliated in Kaduna, Atiku was beaten hands down in Adamawa, Angulu was knocked out completely
Re: INEC Declares APC Candidate Winner of Jigawa By-Election by Mandate1: 9:53am On Aug 17, 2025
For the fact APC is still winning elections anywhere shows something is fundamentally wrong with Nigerians. Majority of those who voted are the poorest in the society. If they are fine with Tinubu's govt, who am I to disagree.

We suffer together.
Re: INEC Declares APC Candidate Winner of Jigawa By-Election by lapintoz: 9:58am On Aug 17, 2025
The man realise that they want to make him mugu for the 10th time. Dele Momodu chop tire. Dino bought a new Richard Mille watch of N600 million. Nduka's Arise/Thisday chop in dollars. And they are ready to chop another round of Atiku's loot. Jelly Rufai too want to chop on top of Kaduna's money he stole.

Meanwhile, Ameachi and Malami that stole billions of dollars in fresh cash no wan drop shi shi.

And the pressure to make Obi the candidate loud.

Atiku is considering permanent relocation to dubai at this stage. Body don dey tell am.

It was his consistiency, you expected a whole minister of defence to lose. That said, the current electoral outcomes do not necessarily foreshadow 2027.
