bayooooooo:I am not from Ondo but seems you are very grounded in the politics there going from your analysis. Have a question for you..... Who do you think should have won the primaries and Why? |

bayooooooo:Owo where Aketi comes from is Central Senatorial District. |

kahal29:I think Boroffice would have been the best choice. He is actually the only one who has contested and won election twice. Even from the results, one can see that if Tinubu withdrew its support from Abraham, he(Boroffice) would have, on the strength of Ondo North delegates alone, won the primary. Besides, he has the qualifications and he actually left Mimiko when ACN was not even in power or in a position to win. I am actually at loss why Tinubu did not support him in the primary. From my own perspective, Aketi won on the strength of Ondo Central delegates but he can't win the senatorial district in general election. Olusola Oke won Ondo South delegates overwhelmingly but there would be clashes between him and Aketi if he manages to emerge as running mate. These are my projections: 1. Boroffice will retain his senate seat but also nominate commissioners from parts of Akoko. 2. Aketi would promise Olusola Oke SSG or a position where Aketi can fire him if his stature begins to grow too much. But it would be a mistake to choose him as a running mate. 3. What happens to Abraham and Tinubu interests? Give them some commissioner slots and the running mate on one condition that Akintelure is not chosen. Tinubu will get Abraham a federal appointment somewhere and possibly fix Akintelure somewhere too. He will also nominate the running mate from Ondo South. 4. He needs to promise Tayo Alasoadura a commissioner slot and a support for his return to senate in 2019 5.Other interests that actually worked for him from Ondo Central can be pacified with either commissioner slots or board appointments. |

agabusta:That's not true. Ondo North has the following local governments: 1. Akoko North-East 2. Akoko North-West 3. Akoko South-East 4. Akoko South-West 5. Owo 6. Ose Ondo Central 1. Akure South 2. Akure North 3. Ondo East 4. Ondo West 5. Ifedore 6. Idanre Ondo South 1. IleOluji/Oke Igbo 2. Odigbo 3. Irele 4. Ilaje 5. Okitipupa 6. Ese odo Ondo has eighteen (18) local governments, three senatorial districts with each having six local governments. |

Ayento:i live here we don't really like this man emerging from them.but now that they have choose him people is voting eyitayo of pdp as the governor |
| Re: Rotimi Akeredolu Emerges As APC Governorship Candidate In Ondo State by kahal29: 5:32am On Sep 04, 2016 |
bayooooooo:Good analysis. Borrofice has nothing to loose given the fact that his senate seat is still intact. I think Aketi is good, people know him and he is nobody's boy..... If Abraham had won people would see him as Tinubu's puppet and Mimiko would have used that to campaign against him. What do you think? |
| Re: Rotimi Akeredolu Emerges As APC Governorship Candidate In Ondo State by theophorus(m): 5:38am On Sep 04, 2016 |
...I think On do people would never make the same mistake they made in 2012... They will not vote another PDP governor considering what they went through in the hand of Mimiko... And the Interest of Federal will make several person support APC. #MyOpinion. |

| Re: Rotimi Akeredolu Emerges As APC Governorship Candidate In Ondo State by Caseless: 5:56am On Sep 04, 2016 |
I've seen this man do certain things in opposition, and feel he deserves to win despite Tinubu's endorsement- in fact he was everywhere with Buhari before election. But my encounter with people from Ondo shows he's not the best candidate. Sai akeredolu though... |
| Re: Rotimi Akeredolu Emerges As APC Governorship Candidate In Ondo State by Nobody: 5:58am On Sep 04, 2016 |
kahal29:My attitude is no politician is completely independent. Also, we have seen several instances of political godsons turning against their fathers. Even Mimiko also turned against Tinubu who at some point helped him. God fatherism is an inherent part of politics and as long as politics is driven by interests, endorsement by powerful politicians would also be there. What's important is not who is nominating but if others have opportunity to compete in a free and fair process. In this regard, APC has done well. I think the primary was largely free and fair. My problem with Abraham stems from the fact that I don't really know much about him, not that he was endorsed by Tinubu. I know Boroffice is a professor who has worked at both the federal and state levels. Akeredolu's track record in the legal field speaks for itself. Ditto for Olusola Oke. But for some reason, I don't even know where Abraham got his first degree. That's the problem I have with its candidacy, scarcity of facts about him. Performance in Nigeria has little to do with God fatherism but a lot to do with funds available to work. Put Fayose in Lagos, he will also be a superstar as long as there is money to pay salary and do some infrastructural works. And if you put Fasola or Ambode in Ekiti, as long as there is no money, there is no magic. Really, I don't rate Nigerian governors. |

Am seeing Aketi re uniting with Bola Tinubu...I dnt want neither APC nor PDP to win.I think Oke should have come from another Party he would av been an automatic choice for the people. |
| Re: Rotimi Akeredolu Emerges As APC Governorship Candidate In Ondo State by Barayeks(m): 6:14am On Sep 04, 2016 |
Wasted time and effort He knows damn well APC won't win the election I guess he's just looking for compensatory appointment from the federal government |

Babatundecash:Was Barawo Rogue Fashole popular in Lagos state in 2007 when he was imposed on the Association of Conmen in Nigerian, ACN? The popular Engr. Funsho Williams had to be brutally murdered to ensure the secrets of Jagbajantis' looting of the treasury for eight years (1999-2007) were covered and he continued milking the taxes of Lagosians. Hopefully justice will still be done for the REAL nest of killers that assassinated this illustrious son of Lagos. It is only a matter of time.

Babatundecash:Every election is different. Tayo Alasoadura did not dismantle Mimiko, he won based on Buhari's effect. The same mimiko that could not help Jonathan also managed to win house of assembly seats when he realized his governorship seat would be threatened should APC win. Can Buhari win now if he is on ballot? He is not that popular any longer. Mimiko's choice of someone from Akure is super strategic as all politics are local. He is trying to hold Ondo Central where majority of votes are and then fight it out in Ondo South. If he spends money wisely in strategic locations, he can pull it off. You also mentioned Abraham, Boroffice, Oke and Alasoadura working for Aketi as if it was automatic or something that could be decreed into existence. Politicians don't work for a candidate because they love the candidate or want him to win. They work for ANY candidate who can protect their INTERESTS. "what's in it for me?" is a politician's question. If he is not able to rally the so called losers, he will lose. Infact, if people like Boroffice and Alasoadura see Aketi's being a governor as threat to their senatorial seats, they would surreptitiously worked for PDP. Politicians are all about SELF INTERESTS. I won't bet my money on him until he is able to rally the losers to share his vision. |

Like Jimi agbaje of PDP. Very likeable. An ideal choice but a lightweight. PDP retains ondo. Meanwhile, what's up with tinubu's influence these days? Are people now calling his bluff? |

APC just survived in Ondo State. Aketi is the next Governor by God's grace. The most important thing here is that the primary election was free, fair and rancour free and that Tinubu candidate in lost in the primary. Ondo State detest godfatherism as I have said over and over again. Welcome to Ondo State |
| Re: Rotimi Akeredolu Emerges As APC Governorship Candidate In Ondo State by Laredojohn(m): 6:49am On Sep 04, 2016 |
He said Asiwaju will b socked by the result of the primary election, will Asiwaju still support him Since his own preferred candidate didn't win, can he face the candidate of an incumbent Governor? Anyways Ondo people it's in your hands. |

Shewunoshewa:Tinubu made Aketi lost the last guber poll when he came to Akure and started wishing Mimiko death. Ondo people cannot stand godfathers, they are too enlightened for that. |
| Re: Rotimi Akeredolu Emerges As APC Governorship Candidate In Ondo State by blazetitov: 6:58am On Sep 04, 2016 |
Grundig:PDP will lose Ondo State, I can promise you that. As for Tinubu, Ondo people detest godfatherism, he should bring all of them together and unite the party before election and not be over bearing lest APC will lose again if he gives the impression that he will control the government house from burdillion. |
| Re: Rotimi Akeredolu Emerges As APC Governorship Candidate In Ondo State by sundayamazing3: 7:00am On Sep 04, 2016 |
I wonder if APC will win Ondo State. God deliver Us from Mimiko's oppression oooo |
| Re: Rotimi Akeredolu Emerges As APC Governorship Candidate In Ondo State by Lifestone(m): 7:03am On Sep 04, 2016 |
bayooooooo:Aketi lost 2012 election simply because of Tinubu. He is a man of his own now and thats what Ondo State people want. Mimiko is at the lowest level now and it's also a negative to have brought a candidate from the same Senatorial district with himself. Ondo Central can't produce Governor back to back. |
