Was abbo ever with Atiku until adc? Did Binani also tell you she's got problems with Atiku?

So Binani will abandon Atiku for obi or Tinubu?
Abbo supported Atiku in 2023 immediately tinubu declared shettima, same with bwala and Dogara while Babachir went obi, have you forgotten so soon? Binani cannot work for Atiku as far as she is in NDC, it seems you don't know Dickson. Whatever she does will be limited. Besides Atiku has picked a candidate for ADC.

Atiku and Obi joint ticket would have been the only combo to unseat Tinubu. Both Atiku and Obi should just say bye bye to presidency.
As Buhari don die, Atiku is now the biggest politician from the north. In the south, no other politician is as big as Obi (apart from the incumbent president). Imagine both of them now contesting together on a joint ticket; it will be impossible for Tinubu to defeat such a combo.

So, Abbo did anti party? Because he contested and won senate under APC in 2023. So, not having Abbo will make Atiku lose Adamawa? As for seriake and Binani, story! Nigerian politics is simply too complex for straitjackets. You cant regiment politicians, least of all Binani.

Where will Amechi get the votes for Atikuhuh The north? The South West?
Dude cant even win Obia Akpor Localgovernment, so from where will the votes come from!?
From Rivers state? Wike will rather commit suicide than allow him win a single local government.

From the South East?
He shot himself in the foot when he loquaciously denied the zone the other day because he thought that in these days of APCs sectional anti-igbo politics, that was the right thing to do.

The South South?
No one at Edo, Delta, Cross Rivers or Bayelsa will listen to him. Dude is not even popular in the South South.
So where will the votes come from?
Amechi is nothing but a power hungry interloper who thinks that because he has managed to siphone billions from government coffers, he can now use such resources to hyjack federal power.
It won't work!
Obi will labour in vain come January 2027
And you and your bllodas will wail till thy Kingdom come.

Binani can support Atiku covertly not openly. She could have done it far better in ADC or another party with no presidential interests. Tinubu is aware of potential betrayers that is why he has several campaign teams and his core loyallists are in charge. His son Seyi has 4 campaign groups alone and counting....the fact of the matter is that with Fintiri in APC alongside Babachir, Tinubu will get more votes in Adamawa and atiku less though Atiku will win. The balkanization of Adamawa Emirates by Fintiri has endeared him to the christians

Only one thing is sure, the great Jagaban will be re elected in January 2027.
Agulu Obi will come a distant third.

And you will come back to Nairaland after the crushing defeat of your master, to begin to write your needless and boring epistles to console yourselves
Re: Atiku Picks Amaechi As Vice President Nominee - The Guardian by chatinent: 2:38pm On Jun 12
May I remind him that after this year he cannot contest again?

So I suppose this time's elections will be a war.

As long as Obi is on the ballot, both Wike and Amaechi cannot get 10 percent in Rivers State.
Wike cannot even get 10 percent in his own Obio Akpor if Obi contests.

Except by using police, thugs, INEC to snatch the votes.

Not reelected but re announced by Amupitan.

Mind your language.
Re: Atiku Picks Amaechi As Vice President Nominee - The Guardian by OgwuEgo: 2:46pm On Jun 12
Tinubu can't get 25 percent of Ebonyi votes.
Willy2025:
Amaechi has no any electoral value in the South South. He can never match the influence of David Umahi, Akpabio and Wike. Not to talk of Okpebolo, Big Sheriff, Tompolo, Ayiri etc. There is no way Tinubu is not going to pull 45% in the Niger Delta even if he is not winning.
In the East, we Uzodimma, who is running for the Senate aiming for the Senate Presidency. Also, Ebonyi is for Tinubu at least 40% because of Umahi.
Re: Atiku Picks Amaechi As Vice President Nominee - The Guardian by Davimuyi: 2:53pm On Jun 12
Read to understand. He specifically said atiku got 5.6 million votes in the north and those votes are still intact .

Where will Tinubu's votes come from? In 2023, he got defeated by Obi in the South, winning only 4 Yoruba states out of 17 Southern states. He became president because of the 5.6m Northern votes. Atiku has barely lost a voter from his 6.9m votes in 2023 but he has made huge incursions into the North with the demise of Buhari and Tinubu's betrayal of the Northern allies that helped him to galvanise votes.
Atiku can't get 25% votes in any southern states in 2027
Re: Atiku Picks Amaechi As Vice President Nominee - The Guardian by Davimuyi: 3:00pm On Jun 12
This claim has be found to be untrue many times yet you're still stuck with it.
Then was atiku the president? How much of the things happening in this government can you put on shettimas head ..
Atiku was on my a VP yet all the bad things in the government he served under are put on him

Yes, the same tactical support she gave Atiku in 2023. Babachir is paperweight. Fintiri will be too absorbed in his senatorial race to do any heavy lifting for Tinubu on election day. Ribadu is also overrated. If the Christians are endeared to Fintiri, why didn't he pick a Christian candidate to complete the circle he was drawing?

Most Adamawa Christians have always been with Fintiri, irrespective. But not now that he's leaving. Mind you, Adamawa tends to switch parties at the end of an incumbents second term.

jamafa:

He will, but assuming he doesn't, Atiku will still emerge with the highest votes cast if the election is to hold today. As long as Southerners will be splitting the votes among themselves with Obi likely coming out on top, Atiku is good.

Did Bindowo finished his tenure before the switch? Babachir is a paperweight but a lot of Christian northerners are very sensitive and emotional, they tend to listen to such people who speak in favour of their religion. They are easily swayed once religion is involved...

Fintiri contesting for senate is exactly why Tinubu will benefit. Many of those that will vote him will vote other APC voters en masse from top to down. This is commonplace in rural areas.... The Apc candidate is a product of Ribadu not Fintiri. Fintiri candidate is tagwami a Christian. The agreement was for Ribadu to produce governor, Fintiri running mate

What has umahi did for ebonyi people to deserve their votes. Most of them are still selling chargers around my area.

He is bringing money not votes. Now is the time to spend the money he kept for his presidential campaign. This is the only choice for Atiku. Atiku is broke and there is no southern oil money to sponsor his campaign this time
