Famzer:

Honestly,it is not about antics.We are having a healthy political discussion as stakeholders in the Nigerian project. If you are Atiku,what will you use to get votes from a region with the second highest number of registered voters which the ruling party has given the Vice presidency? Just think about this as a neutral observer

bonechamberlain:
na wa o, so the man left PDP immediately after election. smh.

AK481:


What percentage of voters in SW are igbos?

Being the second largest.

paj4love:

yes he does (the redeem church) and also tinubu factor

paj4love:


This is what I will do, I will have (SE & SS) that will give me 12 million block vote as my VP and strategies on how to get 3 million vote from (SW) knowing that same 3 million vote they will give will still include the vote of (SE & SS) living the the SW then focus on other zone for the killer move

It is a fact that Okonjo-Iweala, under Ebelemi, oversaw the plunging of our GDP from 7.68% to just 2.35% when the satanic party left office in May 2015! It's a fact that Okonjo-Iweala oversaw the plunging of our foreign direct investment! It is also a fact that Okonjo-Iweala oversaw the plunging of our foreign reserves by over $20b! These, my friend, aren't propaganda!

oluwaseyi000:

Hopefully PDP will choose a reasonable and acceptable vice

The reason south west seems to tilt towards buhari especially during his second term bid is osinbajo, not a case of tribalism of him simply being a Yoruba man but of his qualifications, a good technocrat, scandal free, family man and Public Relation man. Hate or like Tinubu he seems to have abundance of this amazing technocrats in his war chest and uses them appropriately.

PDP/Atiku should note that not everything is about Buhari/APC, in choosing their vice, the target man should be Osinbajo nothing less than him should be presented, forget the position of president you need someone people will rather vote rather than osinbajo and I must confess that is a more difficult job than finding a match against buhari

globemoney:

She only needs school cert for vp

AyakaDunukofia:
" In an interview with New Telegraph newspaper, Junaid Mohammed said that whereas the average votes garnered by Buhari in Lagos and other SW state was about 700, 000, Kano gave him two million votes"

Why all this noise from a few uninformed miscreants from the SW?

Scholes007:
I will go for Ngozi. She has a very strong appeal internally especially in southern Nigeria. Perhaps she will bring a new era in the national arena. (First woman to...) It will be the best. But I will still cross my hands and see how the next one month plays.

sangresan:



mumu posts like this is why I seldom read Nairaland comments...

Atiku vs Buhari in NW and NE will be a win for Buhari. NC is like 55 to 45 in Atiku's favour...SW is like 55 to 45 in Buhari's favour...SS and SE will be like 80 to 20 in Atiku's favour...But SS and SE combined won't cancel Buhari's lead in NW and NE...

In the NE, we are talking of states like Yobe, Bauchi, Borno, etc which are pro-Buhari states.

obailala:
Peter Obi!

If Atiku picks his vice from the SW, that would be automatic victory for Buhari. Today the SE stands as the greatest opposition to Buhari and APC. Disregarding the SE and picking a running mate from the SW would be a very distasteful insult to the SE which would consequently result in widespread voter apathy.

bishopkay:


My friend please take this your arguments to APC zombies who would be willing to oblige you with listening ear.

Buhari has done better abi? Over 3 million jobs lost in his first year, do you even know what FDI means because if you did you'd know it was buhari who really reduced FDIs into the country because he made our polity over heated with so much hate going round and no one wants to invest in an unsafe environment!

shizzleStar:
First time you are making a reasonable comment in ages on nairaland. I pray the spirit of zombeism depart from you henceforth

chikeson2008:
It appears Atiku will give Buhari a tough battle. But , if Atiku dare pick a running mate outside southeast, we in the southeast will abandon him and better vote for Buhari

Tolexander:
Hello, you are definitely a drooling.

How can a man have "waec"?

is waec a property?

bonechamberlain:

Keziehenry:
Having won the PDP primary, the next thing on the mind of people now is who his running mate will be. Will it be Wike, Peter Obi, Ngozi Okonjo Iweala or who? Kindly feel free to suggest the best running mate for the most Atikulated man for the job.

please argue bro.

In fact you must argue.

Odingo1:


SW will not take over from Buhari, the north is very greedy for power, if Osinbajo becomes APC presidential bearer in 2023, all northerners will decamp to PDP to go and support a PDP northern candidate in 2023.

Reasons? And who from SW?
