You need to go and open a political class for Ibos in the SE

The igbos are generally loud and they’ve carried that loud mouth into politics

South west has no capacity to do anything to PDP. They have never voted for PDP before and will never, the 50% and above votes they always get there is from non Yorubas and relatives of those who are contesting under PDP

Sanchez01:

... Lol! Calculations don't work that way. Okowa is on the verge of being uprooted just as Udom Emmanuel. The APC will enjoy or witness more votes compared to that of 2015 in the SS which was totally all out for GEJ then.

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

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.

Why are you obsessed with Atiku? Focus on Bubu and leave Atiku alone unless you want to Atikulate

The votes from SE are about 7m the votes from SW are about 14m

Atiku and PDP ain't stupid. They feel they already have SE in the bag so will take you guys for granted and discard you again.

Wahala dey for una

In2015, Yorubas went for Ambode and Igbos led the pack that pitched their tent with Agbaje, and what was the margin of victory for Ambode? Thin hair victory of 100k votes. That is the delicate ethnic population pattern of Lagos.

People should also look at the ACTUAL voting in 2015...SW gave Buhari 2.3million and SE gave GEJ 2.4 million votes. Food for thought.

In any event, Yoruba has nothing to loose in this permutation. Osinbajo is already there. It is only Atiku that has got everything to loose.

The entire country will lose out to Buhari


The Yorubas had the Presidency for 8 years, the only thing they are is greedy


The most patient people in Nigeria have been the Igbos who have received nothing but insult and ridicule for the last 19 years after supporting PDP, even when the same Yorubas abandoned them in 2015. And now that they ought to get some compensation for such uncommon loyalty, the same greedy Yorubas, whom these Igbos supported for Presidency for 8 years, want to come and snatch it from under them. Did Igbo peopoe not Vite massively for OBJ in 2004, even when Yoruba peoppe stood against him?


Humility, is that not the height of wickedness, selfishness and injustice? That you will shamelessly take from a man, what he has suffered and sweat for, to what end?

Is it not greed? Does it not say a lot of you as a people? Is this how loyalty should be paid? That Igbo should vote for Atiku and a SW VP and abandon Buhari? Then they stand the risk of being shut out another 8 years

In 2027, who will they have to step down for? Another Yoruba man?


If Igbo people do not get VP with Atiku, they will help in Buhari's win, after which they can at least hope he will hand over to an Igbo man in 2023. Nobody will play us for fools one more time.


We may not be politically savvy, but we will be nobody's fool.

TundeBricklayer:

2011 presidential election southeast was 4.9 million for PDP southwest pulled 2.7 million for PDP and 1.3 for for ACN mind you Igbos also voted for PDP in West

DMerciful:
Non indigene esp igbos in SW is up-to 30% so don't think SW is Yorubas alone. Who gave Jimi Agbaje 45% of the votes in 2015?

safarigirl:
if Atiku chooses a SW VP he will lose and heaven will not fall.

People are dying in Plateau, Benue and Taraba as well, more people have died in these places than in the East. So, how can a lose for Atiku be suicide for Igbos? Benue and Plateau will be the first states om the map to be wiped out if Buhari wins, not one village in the East

senatordave1:

No ma.buhari had 6 million votes in nw in 2011,gej had 3.5 million.in 2015,buhari had 7.1 million,gej 1.3 million.amechi was fighting a lost battle.gej is loved in rivers,his wife from there.the entire federal might was against him including his police commissioner and inec.but in 2019,he has federal might,thugs,more loyallists,atiku is from the north and not well liked in rivers.

alexvatt:
Buhari will not give any Igbo presidency. But Yorubas can help Igbos to help them actualise their dream.

Acidosis:


These ethnic permutations are not necessary. Atiku/NOI is a good one already.

Over 40% of voters in Lagos for example are non-Yorubas. Atiku will get at least 45% of the total votes in Lagos alone and over 80% in the South East.

solreb:
The PDP decision makers know that SW has more electoral value than SE and are not push-overs. Furthermore I don't know why Biafrans should be concerned about Nigerian election. The honourable thing to do is to boycott the election
