And what makes you think yorubas will vote for buhari?

I feel Ekiti and Osun election has already sent signals to the apc.

Ogun state is falling apart cos of Amosun 's greed and Daniel being the campaign coordinator of Atiku plus Adebutu Kessington as the ogun state pdp governorship candidate, pdp has a chance, come to Oyo, it will be 50/50 while lagos is pdp for presidential forget the fake figures of the apc primary.
Adebutu is no longer the candidate of the PDP. Keep up

PDP will win Buhari if:

1.) Buhari organizes a free and fair election in 2019 like Goodluck did without repeating what happened in Osun and Ekiti States!

2.) Kwankwaso will throw his Kwankwasiya supporters behind Atiku

3.) Tambuwal will rally his caliphate supporters to work honestly with Atiku

4.) Saraki will throw his weight to still support Atiku

Atiku has won South south, Southeast and Middlebelt already.

The only regions he needs to focus on winning now is his own Northeast and Southwest.

But of course, Yoruba people will definitely vote Buhari just to spite Igbos, but who careshuh

If Buhari finally rigs the election as planned and wins, both Igbos, Hausas, Ijaws, Idomas, Binis and Yorubas will suffer it together.

For the sake of strengthening our democracy and passing a strong message to incoming presidents that they need to perform to win reelection, Nigerians really need to rally together and vote Buhari out no matter what!

Yorubas need to wake up!

Vice Presidential slot is nonsense!

Don't sell your future because of ordinary VP slot that have no say in government!!!

Wake up!

Support Atiku let's teach Buhari and other incoming presidents a lesson and make Nigeria stronger and united!!
Election is not won on Nairaland. I pity people who waste their time here posting rubish and those who waste their mind believing this rubish.
SE and SS are not idiots that you toss around anyhow. Oby ezekwesili and APGA have their presidential candidate from SE. So take your useless PDP and APC to North Central.

Why would Yorubas vote for Buhari to spite Igbos?
Because it is in the blood of majority or Yorubas especially the Muslim ones to do everything they can to spite Igbos as a way of appeasing their Northern Caliphate gods, to see if they would allow them start sighting the moon in future to come.

If u doubt me, google MURIC cry

But Atiku is the better Candidate to contest with President Buhari, I don't know why the rest still bought form when none of them is half as popular as Atiku. Atiku might have a Questionable past but the man is More educated and a million time more intelligent than the Current Oga in power.
It was a better way to build a clean financial muscle for the party.

It was decided by the Council of State to pick Atiku so that so much power won't be rested on the Caliphate. Obasanjo was persuaded to stay on Atiku's side by the Generals.

Atiku has Experience, Finance, and Spread out structures. So he's the best man to unseat Buhari.

Anyone remembered when Aliyu Gusau, a retired General, walked in and his arrival announced immediately. He brought message from the Generals.

Before anyone quote me, i am not an Atiku fan. But removing Buhari is a task we all must achieve by whatever means
hahaha. As if na generals go vote.its gonna be a difficult race though. The next 60days is gonna shape who is going to win

Tambuwal's candidacy would have been an error for PDP and they know it.

Atiku just needs to work on his homebase, the North East. Then with support from the Middlebelt, South South and South East, he can ride an elephant to the moon. However, he should be careful with his choice of VP. A South-Southerner or South-Westerner would be his best bet if he wants additional support. The South East will vote for him regardless of who his VP is because they really won't have a choice. It's either Buhari or Atiku. The South South is polarised along ethnic lines and APC has been making in-roads in Delta, Akwa Ibom and Cross River. Its best he selects someone that can command respect in the region. If he goes with the South West, then he should pick someone that can rival Tinubu's oligarchic dynasty.

Atiku has a lot of hard choices to make, if he ever stands a chance.
Buhari is too self-confident and that may ultimately make or mar him.
Atiku won't get it easy in Delta state, he might even not clear the state, APC is now greatly rooted in the state,I say this because of the things I'm seeing, most of the thugs rigging for PDP in a certain town in Delta Central are all now pro APC, Plus they just played their card well in the just concluded state primaries.

This election won't be like that of 2019, Now we have the options of choosing between two strangers, unlike 2015 were everyone campaign seriously for GEJ (Our brother factor), even those who weren't a member of PDP then campaigned for GEJ, the likes of Ogboru,Omoagage,etc were pro GEJ, it was only Olorugun Otega that was pro Buhari, now some heavyweight itsekiri politicians are seriously campaigning for APC, they need Delta south Senatorial seat which PDP didn't give to them.

Edo state will also be tough for him, the only states that will to easy to get in South South are Bayelsa and Rivers. This is just my own observations.

I agree with your submission. That's why Atiku needs to consolidate his hold on the SS with a SSner as VP.

Most of the political pundits online seem to tie the fate of the SS and SE together without realising the diversity of political views and ethnic interests in the SS. The SE is one but the SS is a group of more than 30 disparate people. To bring them as one, Atiku needs to give us a rallying point and that rallying point has to be a VP slot.

PDP had a lot of hurdles to cross to deliver Atiku as the winner come 2019..they should do some underground checks to know where they may likely get support and votes.. thereby they can pick there VP and strategies on the way forward.. all these online permutations doesn't win votes but the practical approach...

So Buhari's past as a man that overthrew a democratically elected government then plunged Nigeria into its first recession is not questionable. Mtscheww. Hypocrites everywhere.

Rubbish

Re: Why Delegates Dumped Tambuwal For Atiku by Gabriel5050(m): 7:57am On Oct 08, 2018
The major job for Atiku now is to focus on how to woo North(central,east,west) and South-west.In 2015,Jonathan won in both South-east and South-south including some states in middle-belt. So these regions have lesser votes compare to northern regions.To defeat PMB in 2019,Atiku must at least win 10 northern states including north-west.really,we are complaining bitterly about this APC government but,are northern people complaining like we do?if the answer is 'YES',then I wish Atiku best of luck in 2019.

your calculation is wrong. Like me am a Yoruba person. I would have liked to vote for Tambuwa if he won the primary. But as Atiku won, my vote is going to buhari. Atiku victory will cost pdp 2019 election. I knew Nikola can't win the primary. His evil is to much for him.

Bro Buhari can't garner more votes in South West this time except from a state where the citizens are slaves to one man,the state called Lagos. For Ogun State,Atiku na the man.

It is interesting how they have assumed we care that much. Politics is about interest. With APC, the Southwest may get 2023 and I doubt it is enough to vote for Buhari again. A Yoruba president won't add a penny to the average Yoruba man's pocket.

Atiku is likeable. Buhari is likeable. Buhari being a Muslim won't stop Atiku from garnering significant votes in the Southwest.

Most Muslims, especially those up north don't see Atiku as a born again Muslim and u know whyhuh

Because Atiku don't bring a Southern Christian and maybe use sword and behead him while Almajiri boys hail him.

Atiku don't support or sponsor them burning Churches and killing Christians, so they see Atiku as a Kafir while they adore and worship Buhari who is an extremist ready to kill or support anything that will make Muslim Almajiris happy.

Americans and Europeans make jest of Nigerians for electing such an old, tired, slow person as president in 21st century!

You need to interact more with foreigners to know how they view Nigerians and Buhari, but Yorubas even as they know have refused to stop praising Buhari all because of ego and to spite Igbos!

But then, we all are suffering the failure and embarrassment Buhari brought together.
