The same way the presidency belongs/zones to the North so the Vice Presidency belongs/zones to the South West. Picking V.P from another zone will be a political suicide for Atiku. And it will cost him dearly.

gratiaeo:
South West is only dreaming about getting vp position from PDP. I thought yoruba said PDP is dead why are they having multiple orgasm over PDP matter

Ur problem is u generalize a lot that's why u make many from the SW hate PDP..Are there no yorubas in PDP that will clamour for VP position..

Sanchez01:

The truth is, the SE can't smell the presidency. This isn't a curse. Sadly, no one trusts them to hand over the country to them. Most unfortunately is the fact that they have insulted the life out of everyone there is rather than build bridges and work towards being a key player.

If it isn't Ohaneze today, it is IPOB and MASSOB tomorrow, not forgetting the foot soldiers who rant that they are not Nigerians.

As it stands, the SE are the major losers here.

the SE that has the least poverty rate in Nigeria are major losers?

You don't know who a loser is. Sanchez, focus on stopping the degradation of land in the Niger Delta by oligarchs. That is a bigger issue than SE Presidency.

Last I checked, South Easterners did not ask anybody for Presidency, it is other people using it to lure them

paramakina202:

go back again...and find out why and how Jonathan lost the 2015 election.
you think the ibos are in a awesome majority to decide presidency in these country.

atiku success in becoming Nigeria president lies in how much votes he gets from the north central, south south, south east and south west.
this single handedly have GEJ victory in 2011.

Oblang:


U ppl with all this ur irritating talk sef. If 50% of votes in the SW belongs to non Yorubas, then the population of non Yorubas in the SW will be greater than that of the yorubas o...

Na you get time dey reply them lol

Honestly it is just of recent I understand why this people always lose out politically in Nigeria.

If the VP goes to SE, most northerners will never vote for an Igbo man . Why would he want to be a VP in the 'zoo'?

You want the lifeless one out of Aso rock? Give the SW the VP slot, let the SP( more powerful than the VP) go to the SE. With that the APC votes in the SW will be greatly divided thereby affecting APC's overall votes across board.

Will they listen? No. Give SE the VP slot, Buhari wins. Python dance back to the east! lol

safarigirl:
even you, your knowledge of politics is poor


The SW has chosen their stand. They stand with APC come what may, they are not the sophisticated people they once were. Even Ekiti is now an APC State, so, which magic will Atiku pull to convince them to leave APC?

The only major stakeholder that most Nigerians are too blind to see is the North Central. Kwara, Benue, Plateau all abandoned PDP in 2015 and were part of why APC won. I am disappointed that you people are dragging this thing like this

Dont you think that the north central just like the south west do not give bloc votes,that whoever wins here will do so marginally?

Umueme:
Didnt even bother to read the post,but one thing is certain if SW gets the VP slot then we give Bubu our vote and get 2023 presidency. We aint gonna fall for the gimmicks of the afonjas no more. VP and senate pres. from one region.....

But hey! what do i know....
#MyOpinion

so Kwara state is now part of Yoruba land

I still think Femi Adesina Adewumi as atiku running mate gonna be fit match......

Which Ngige?... He couldn't get a return ticket for how many years now?

paramakina202:
Yoruba media playing mind games.

yobura media are that callous n the world know them...their woes are nearby if they keep playing this their demonic role of ignorant tribal slurs, nobody wld even listen to them wen the time comes, their case wld be beyond pitiable, even their habit of begging won't even work, since they have chosen to be supporters of evil, turn blind eyes, n monumental praise singers for injustice...the hour is near...even d gate of hell can not prevail...let those who sights the storm , begin to appease themselves with d rain...

This is simple.... 80%+ in south south and south east are with PDP, the agenda is to vote buhari out, the north is being divided now, ( tambuwal, atiku, kwankwaso and etc) all pdp need is to get a vice from the west cos they are the people that caused all this wahala in the 1st place, they should be mandated to correct it.... #IAMATIKULATED, ARE YOU?

Humility017:


you have no knowledge of Nigeria politics....
he will loose in a large scale....and the east will come back to marginalization
you've to use your sense....
definitely the ibos will get other juicy positions and will eventually get the presidency after his tenure....

let him pick a Yoruba man....an watch how he splits the Yorubas vote.
use your head....

I don't care about knowing your nigerian politics. My stand is that people who did not make sacrifices should not benefit where others have made sacrifices. That position must go to SE or Atikulation can go to hell.

thanks bro.... many will never learn.
I won't even waste my time campaign for atiku should he pick non Yoruba as his running mate...
because with that choice...he will loose.
and buhari will continue his margination of the ibos.
some here....believe the APC lies of zoning the presidency to the south east...when tinubu himself is eyeing the presidency.

some peeps are just kids.

Your very correct.he can win ss/se/nc and still lose.no matter what he does,his votes cant be up to what gej got in the ss/se/sw.his choice of vp may finally mar him.

okeyfrank:
Whatever happens, wherever the VP may be chosen from, Nigerians have gotten an alternative to the divisive and fantastically corrupt Buhari's govt. We have decided to Atikulate and remain a united country than to shout Sai Baba and continue to be grossly divided, and no amount of negative propaganda against the person of Atiku Abubakar wil ever make us change our mind.

A man that sees Nigeria as one people and grants opportunities to his countrymen irrespective of their Religion & Tribe, is better for us as a nation than a low thinking man who classed us as 97% and 5%.

Atiku can chose Adesina, who is far more intelligent and results oriented than Osinbajo; he will still get the maximum support from the SE & SS. Nothing on earth will make the Eastern Region to accept a man so wicked to them that he only wished they were wiped off completely.

Let me start to Atikulate my community jooor!!!

thank you.I like your post.for me, I don't care whether the VP comes from Yoruba or southeast. All I want is someone who will carry everyone along irrespective of tribe and religion.

Buterflyle0:


Go and tell that to registered APC members in the SE and their families.

Thanks for saying that, members only. Even APC members money in Anambra elections
shared money, still couldn't win second.

serious dilemma for Atiku

Our own we just dey one corner dey watch how things will unfold

Fadan da babu kai yafi dadin kallo.

A win win for us

Ogbeni, stop talking nonsense.

There is no juicy position that the south east have not gotten before.
We want the VP. QED.
If it was even the SS, it was understandable. A Yoruba VP would be the utmost insult to the igbo nation.

Those guys contribute absolutely nothing to the pdp.

If atiku makes that mistake which I doubt, he should just go and start campaigning in the south west for bloc votes because he is not going it from the East.

Ohanaeze have warned him anyway.
We would just sit and home, and run the Nigerian economy silently as usual after the election is done and gone.

We have nothing to lose.

ijustdey:
“So, what they are looking at are the sentiments that the vice presidential candidate can drive for the joint ticket. To a large extent, they are looking at South-East, of course; and I can confirm to you that the South-East has a strong case.

But the major consideration delaying the announcement is that a lot of stakeholders feel that the position should go to South-West. And they’ve been giving lots of reasons for that," said the source.

All this article abi articulade or whatever all I know is that he has nothing to offer Nigeria and if not for pdp's corruption why re they planning PMB's downfall.but by d grace of GOD PMB is going back aso rock and he's going o deal with them all.just watch and see........ PMB till 2023

If Atiku by any means deny we south Easterners VP slot.. I and my family will vote Buhari period!! We are tired of waiting.

APC does not need to win. Its the numbers added from weak areas that count.

You obviously know nothing about politics.

Incidentally, the weak areas for APC have a very low voting population and this means it does not also favour PDP at the end of the day.

Go figure

diebuhari1:
Yes, most Igbos will never dream of voting for Buhari even with a gun to their forehead, but there are other parties and also an option of boycotting the elections if PDP betrays us and that would be a disaster for Atiku and PDP.
For 16 years of PDP rule, none of the top 2 positions went to the SE despite the unflinching support from the region, now some people are still suggesting rubbish.
I don't know why Yorubas want to reap where they did not sow

I thought u guys said all u want is a restructured country moreover d se had d Senate president for yrs which de use controversy in handling.....the best choice for atiku is sw

Buterflyle0:
Hahahaha the story is beginning to change

SE about to be MARGINALIZED by their lord and savior Atiku again

When a failure like Atiku is running from other failures in the SE then know that the matter is bad

2019 will be a year of immense laughter for PMB. Its a done deal

Even if Atiku is a direct descendant of Lucifer and a cousin to the devil himself and best friends with Judas, we will try him. Even if he is a. paternal uncle to Cain, a distant cousin to Achan, Ananias and Saphira , an elder brother to Pharaoh, a nephew to Herod, Delilah's boyfriend or Portipher's wife's ex-boyfriend, we will still try him. If he ends up like "baba nepotism, recession, 5 percent and 95 percent stereotyping", we will vote him out in 2023. We will keep voting out any error till we get the real deal. Aso rock is nobody's permanent inheritance. We have tried Mr Saint and have seen what he stands for. For now, someone should just get set to focus on raising cows in Daura.

None of them is Hausa!
