If Nigeria was real, na Sowore suppose be the president. I mean, it was supposed to be a do or die affair where anything less than Sowore would not be accepted. No one of them has done even 5% of what Sowore has done for Nigeria. How many of them have stood up for people? |

You can NEVER find the answer to that questions! But I will be plain and tell you why I will not be supporting Sowore. I am a realist, and I don’t deceive myself in all my doing in life. I am a believer of staring at reality, accepting it, and making decisions based on what’s facing me. Sowore IS the best candidate among all if it was ordained on me to choose a leader for the country, but when reality sets in, you see how impossible it is. Let me start first with finance. Politics is not an easy play with words of mouth. It requires massive finance to mobilize and stretch tentacles across all regions. Sowore does not have that. He can’t even get 1% of the money his competitors are spending on the game. Sad but the reality. Another instance is that, a coup will happen if by luck he becomes president , which will return power back to the military. . Now you did want to ask me why I went on that route. Sowore will JAIL a lot of corrupt people in government, and same time, still happens to be anti imperial and colonialism. He would have both at home and away enemies. With out population and diversity, it’s not healthy. Sowore is a radical, he will move with forces that will get us back to where we started from. History taught us about his kind. They all got killed. |

Because they are hungry corrupt people looking for criminal money bags to give them money. |

CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME. SOWORE IS STILL THE YOUNGEST IN THE SOUTH WEST OF CONTENDANTS FOR THE PRESIDENCY. HE SHOULD BE SUPPORTED BY A STRONG TRADITIONAL RULER AND A ZONE IN THE SOUTH WEST. |

HacheNoire:Well, let’s try the radicals first and see. We’ve tried Mr. Integrity, Mr. I had no shoes, Mr. Ocean tamer aka “greatest politician alive”. All na same thing. |

Experience.... For many people the thought is still there... Apart from activism, has he really held a political office that will give him the experience to understand the power system of the gymnastics thay comes with leading? Local government chairman? Governor? House of Reps? Senate? Speaker? Senate President? It takes a lot more than GOODWILL to 'rule' a volatile democracy like Nigeria. If he had started from the lower echelon since last 3 general elections, he would have made much impact by now. |

Because we are tribalistic. Yoruba prefer Tinubu. Ibo want Peter obi. While North want Atiku. Sowore is from minority setting. |

Ever since Sowore started his political campaign to be president, I've on several occasions made it clear that he will do more to help Nigerians than all these other political opposition candidates who cannot even start or lead a protest. If given the chance to be president, I see Sowore pushing revolutionary reforms against "sacred cows" while stepping on many toes to restore hope for the masses. This is why Sowore can not be allowed to become president, he is consistent and a highly principled individual which is rare in Nigerian politics making him a big threat.... Except Nigerians fight for him, there is no way he can rise. In a sane country, he should've easily been a forerunner in the next election but Nigeria is not a sane normal country. People like Sowore do not stand a chance against the deeply rotten, politically corrupt system in place that favors godfatherism, nepotism, tribalism and religious fanaticism over integrity, excellence and justice. I am not expecting anything different to happen in the next election...... My advice to Sowore is to forget about trying to rule Nigeria and instead join in the struggle to totally restructure or divide the country..... |

chatinent:Sowore is president since nah Aluta president. |

truthera:This will be true in a country with less plurality. With all tinubu don do another yoruba man will hardly be accepted nationally unless he's highly exceptional. I agree with all you said about a Sowore presidency. |
