Will also split LP party in SS and SE..
In SW he will do better than Obi did but Tinubu woukd still win
He will win North
Will south south and south east.
He will have enough votes from south west cos time have exposed Tinubu/APC that they are worst that GEJ they made Nigerians to hate in 2015
Obi will not be on the ballot if GEJ decides to contest
It will be the biggest electoral disgrace for an incumbent.
APC will so manufacture votes and yet still wont see half of what GEJ will get

GEJ is the only south south heavy weight that can split the south south votes massively with Tinubu if well coordinated.
If that happens, Tinubu will be beaten Blue and black in the north.

That's my calculations though

In a potential 5-horse race scenario with Tinubu, Jonathan, Obi, Atiku and Kwankwaso on the ballot, where will Tinubu's votes come from to get him reelected?
majority of the names u listed above campaigned in d last election, at the end he stil won and he was not even a sitting president

Is he more influential at his current level than he would be if reelected as President of Nigeria?

Jonathan throwing his hat into the race will change all permutations and it is bad news to APC. Jonathan is the only candidate that can give the PDP a lifeline.
d question am asking is, will Obi still run if GEJ runs?

Yea I blv he would give Tinubu a run in North. I be Tinubu supporter and a Yoruba for the record..but I swear I can ditch Tinubu for GEJ. I didn't even say he'd do better than Obi in SW because of what u think abwt Tinubu here. People naturally love GEJ all round. He can be linked to Abiola on the poll too, let's forget about the snitches aftermath of the elections, All parts of Nigerian voted him like GEJ. See the way people pulled up for him in Lagos that year, I mean GEJ.

I just dey laugh una eyes go clear. So una fit dey beg Gej you all tagged the most clueless president in the world?

So you can now Gej you insulted day and night, called his wife all kinds of names?

So you can be begging Gej now after betraying him ba?

I just dey laugh. Sorry to announce to you Gej is not going to contest in 2027 so all of you should rest. Eyes go turn una wella.

APC must rule for 60 years as Primate Ayodele-Whatever said then we go all learn our lesson in hard way but as it is today we never learn enough we must learn in full lenght.

APC wants him to run. If he wins, they will use the judiciary to say he is not qualified.

If he loses, they still win.

Either way, if Jonathan runs, they win.
Re: 2027 Presidency: Jonathan Splits South-South PDP by udemzyudex(m): 7:45am On Sep 10, 2025

PDP is not dead as some people are saying and Jonathan is qualify to contest. Infact, his the best candidate and the right party to challenge Tinubu. So, I will urge Atiku to step down and support Jonathan untill 2031 then he can contest when power will have successfully shifted to the north peacefully. Obi should wait when power rotate back to the south. Abi e no make sense like dis?
Atiku will be how old by then?

even u can defeat tinubu if u are serious with ur life.how una Dey see tinubu sef?
I be Tinubu supporter yea...but I swear I'd ditch him and I'm sure many too if GEJ comes forward.
And u can't be serious to still be undermining Tinubu, are u kidding yourself? Reflect back to when the elections was even at the stages of gathering team, campaign, primary. He dealt with all adversaries..even the sitting president fought him by proxy, he defeated him..u must be joking to think just anyone would defeat him..so Obi, Atiku and the rest wst serious? Yet they wasted billions of naira? U must be high on cheap bad kush..u think Tinubu started his presidential ambition just 2 years before elections? He is a master planner..you dont wonder why he almost doesn't respond to criticism directly? He doesn't engage opposition no matter how dey throw sheds. I'm certain he's started his second term plans immediately he was pronounced president. I live Lagos all my life...While is just a small Tinuub, Tinubu dealt wit Obasanjo seriously even as a governor to president...directly, so much that all Lagos and Ogun state turned against OBJ..he seized allocation Tinubu still ran Lagos wells...I Pity u..that man is demi-God in politics...I have feeling nobody can unseat him unless they support Jonathan. Gej would shake him badly even in entire SW...Jonathan would will SS,SE, and significant votes in North, he would still do well in SW...see already politicians are already waiting for him to give them greenlight..many Tinubu so called loyalist, like half though would snitch on him for GEJ

Goodluck Jonathan foray into the murky Nigerian political terrain is a decoy to deflect attention from the real issue simmering underneath. BAT know the northern votes are no more sure for him.

Hence the spurious INEC voters registration in the SW. The Peter Obi effects is dreadful to handle hence this plot of fronting Jonathan by the same PDP that Nyesom Wike have singlehandedly handed over to the APC. Don't fall for it.
Obi is inconsequential in 2027 political arrangement. The Northerners against Tinubu knows obi ticket won't fly in the north and that is why they are pressing Jonathan to contest cos Atiku on ballot will be hard to sell in the south. They see obi has a tribal and religious bigot. Know this but I know most igbos are political novice. Most northerners will never support an igbo against Yoruba in presidential election for now. Hope your saw the new registration and how south west are topping with wide margin. The yorubas knows Tinubu might not get the over five million votes from the north but he will surely get atleast three million and they will make up the remaining from thier zone. They are politically inclined than you south east who play politics of emotion, bitterness and hatred. It is either Tinubu vs Jonathan or Tinubu vs Atiku in 2027. Igbo presidency will never happen in 2027 but likely in 2039 if you people don't destroy it with nzogbu nzogbu cos south south will just snatch it. South west is a power house in Nigeria politics. When they support another region then the chances of winning is sure and that is why many of our south south politician are now in alliance with them. You igbos should continue to be shouting OTP. Even if Jonathan wins, power goes to the north and you guys will still not be president for atleast from 2027 till the next 12 years. The question is that won't you people start crying margination and calling for Biafra republic. I said you guys will be used as the pawn in the political chess game of 2027. Imagine a big tribe reduced to nothing just because of hatred and emotion.

Re: 2027 Presidency: Jonathan Splits South-South PDP by Mccullum: 8:14am On Sep 10, 2025
Jonathan only needed to break Southern Nigeria votes, this will affect Obi much more than Tinubu.

Meanwhile, Atiku will benefit more from it than any presidential candidates in 2027. It is very that GEJ cannot win.
Re: 2027 Presidency: Jonathan Splits South-South PDP by Greattha: 8:18am On Sep 10, 2025
Why do you think apc supporters are rooting for Gej to contest?

Look through this thread, all all of them need him...one even said 10000000000%

That's cos Gej contesting will have the same effect obi had in 2023. Obi had no chance instead he divided the votes.

Obi no longer has that power or influence so they looked for the next person who can successfully break things.

Just watch, once Gej confirms he's running, then the insults and defamation to discredit him will begin...all these apc goons who'd been supporting him to contest will then start bashing him cos then they're half-way home.

Pdp already killed itself since 2023 by picking atiku...unfortunately, it seems there's nothing they can do to rectify that error.

Obi will not win 2027 election except there will be a massive appeal by northern politicians to even believe his one term promise
Jonathan is the surest way to remove Tinubu.
APC/Tinubu will never see anything to campaign with against him.
Will the votes of the north alone make him president?

He’s going to need southern votes too, especially his native Southsouth and Southeast. Now, do you think Southeast will vote for Jonathan like this? What is in it for us?

If Jonathan ends up contesting, it would be viewed as betrayal by Ndigbo after all the support we gave him even when the consequence of such support was to be treated as non-citizens by Buhari.

If after seeing all those things he thinks the only way to pay Ndigbo back is to stand in the way of their son’s presidency then we’ll live to see how that pans out.

Tinubu, Jonathan and Obi we share the South -south vote, but Jonathan will have more vote in the south, in the north, Atiku, Tinubu, and Jonathan we share the Vote, but the North we prefer to Vote for Jonathan, so therefore Jonathan we win the election.

They have started dragging this man into their mess again until they take him to political oblivion.
Kids that were shouting PO is possible few months ago turned to shouting ADC 2months in few weeks ago but have slept,they will wake up now and be shouting GEJ…
I can tell you freely, based on first hand info from Jonathan's very inner circle, Jonathan is not being dragged into this. He's been scheming for months on a potential return. The only hitch is PO. And he wants to see about a deal with PO. Both of them will not run against each other. Watch.

OMEGA009:
GEJ should just respect himself and leave this thing for others. Big dogs don’t bark at every passerby. E get wetin him forget for Aso Rock? He quit when the ovation was loudest. Coming back might get him embarrassed. Those egging him on are those who hurriedly pushed him out in the first place. They now want him back for selfish reasons.

* 1 Because they know he’s a safe bet (He constitutionally has only one term. Thus he wouldn’t “betray” them)

* 2 He’s the best person that has a chance in hades in removing BAT

* 3. He’s docile and thus, the uprooted cabal can regroup and once again, be in the drivers seat

* 4 He’s the only guarantee the North has that can ensure power returns to them in 2031

But if he tries it, he’ll be beaten worse than a konga drum. Mark my words. You don’t wear white to wrestle a pig in the mud. A pig with experience sef.
You are talking like a baby for saying that Jonathan will be beaten by who? Tinubu?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I wonder if you actually followed the last election and saw that the east voted against Tinubu after he lost in Lagos and Osun states and it was the north who gave Tinubu victory.

It's only a drunkard who will see what is happening in the north now and believe that the north will not eat Tinubu's money and and show him pepper

What will he do to them if that happens?


🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

igbos will have their time
i am an obi supporter myself and from south south
u see, the moment GEJ declare, Obi wont run cos it will be waste of effort
south south will naturally support GEJ. u see all those SS governors in APC, the way they will deliver for GEJ, tinubu will be on coma for the rest of life.
let put emotion aside, whether GEJ run or not, it will be difficult to convince the north that OBI will do one term.
El rufai have already said, he doesnt believe.
the north dont care about good governance, they just want to be in power.
so they rather support tinubu that have only 4yrs than supporting OBI
Igbos need to wait till 2039 to try again and they need to start building that bridge now
