So atiku is no longer a thief and a criminal that stood no chance?

Get out of here.

Clown.
Don't be annoyed .Atiku is a thief but more credible and marketable in pool than that Obi bcs Obi come from naturally among the minority people who Nigerians can't Trust with power simply because of their characters of lack of leadership skills and greediness in nature.

The two parties will be nomitating an Igbo just like the two parties nominated Yoruba in 1999. There will be no Igbo vs yoruba candidature. If APC zones to the SW, PDP knows what to do.
No one will eat his cake and have it. SW have taken their share, and the whole country knows that.
Stop typing gibberish and nonsense, no party nominate Yoruba in 1999, it was a contest between the south, SW & SE, between OBJ and Ekwueme in which OBJ won him hands down, stop using only ur finger to type, use ur brain too, presidency since 1999 has alway been by election not nomination, stop disgracing yourself on the internet.

God forbid we core northern vote for a nyamuri flat.head for presidency!! Let them keep deceiving themselves, they think we are fools.. ur in for a shocker walahi
Whether you vote or not, Igbo's are still better than northerners. Mean while, North has ruled for over 50 years , and Nigeria is no where to be found in history of the world. Poor power supply, bad economy, corruption was introduced by northern head of state. NITEL sold, everything jagajaga .oga think twice before you comments
Or buy new sense

Its just a matter of alliance..... In as much as Igbo presidency is not going to guarantee any serious development, Igbos can give it a serious shot.

First to clear all grey areas with their closest brothers in South South and then proceed to the North and finally to the West. You can't get all round support especially from the West but they can make a good case for it.

My favorite situation continues to be regional government...total federal government.... We are going no where in a country where next elections are being discussed even before the current elections are concluded.
You talk well but let me object small.

If Igbo man rules Nigeria, it would change, or make little adjustment. the thing is that let everyone see differences. We want Igbo change not APC CHANGE

Shut the fucckk up.

Who is Nigerians?

After obi obliterated the so called Yoruba professor on national debate, he automatically upgraded the atiku ticket to a credible option from a position of scepticism.

Most people that voted for atiku voted for obi.
That is why your so called professor lost heavily in the educated South and buhari had to make the difference in the north among his own people.

If that election was between obi and osibanjo,your defeat would have been heavy.

Clown. When did amala politics become a national politics?

like the useless task your ancestors and jagaban have completed ba that left the likes of your south western state in deplorable state except for lagos which you chose to self-service on due to the progress contributed by all tribes...Useless afonja..better do what is right and give igbo people presidency atleast let try something different away from your past failures you call leaders..
grin grin
Everytime we give you to taste power Nigeria moves ten steps backward.

We are a forward moving people looking for forward vision leaders.
Do you have any? Undisclosed is unacceptable...print names.

Having the presidency have never done benefited any region as far as histroy is concern.The core
northern Nigeria is a classical case as its has dominated most part of our national life but all the ill of misgovernance are everywhere in the region.

So what Nigeria needs today is devolution of power from the centre so that the regions can compete & develop @ their own pace.This will also reduce the selfishness of the politicians.
my friend look back in history, what you are talking about is what we had at independence, every region kept 50% of the income from its resources. The SE region then was in control on 50% of the revenue from Oil because at that time the oil producing areas of the SS were under Okpara and later Ojukwu as governors of the SE region. The Western region kept 50% of its cocoa and The north though lagging behing was making progress with 50% of it's its groundnut etc. everybody was making progress until the shortsightedness of your leaders shatterred everything.

Then the Ibo man came and 1) staged a coup and 2) tried to secede resulting in the civil war. It is because of those reckless actions and to checkmate the ibos that states were created and they carved out cross river and rivers states where the oil was, away from the control of the ibos.

Secondly it is because your actions brought in the military that they reduced derivation from 50% to 13% (it was actually lower at some point.

North did not have free oil money until you bleeped it all up and they tasted free money


The irony of the ibo man is that you threw everybody into chaos, stunted our collective growth, denied us of the resources from our own lands by your actions and now you are talking of devolution of power

we had devolution of powers before, your lust for power and greed bleeped it up!!!! the same shortsightedness your forefacthers displayed on in the '60s is what you are displaying now.

The whole reason for a presidential system of govt and creation of states was to weaken the ibos lust for power and starve them of resources, the horse has left the stable it can never be brought back in. You had it but blew it for everyone.

below is a historical chart of how much you kept from your resources so you can rue at your leisure the plight your fathers brought upon us all.

They deserve it this time

And any Igbo President should be sensible enough to just divide this country once and for all.

If I am to be a president, I will just divide the country once I emerge.

Honestly one Nigeria is not working, let's tell our selves the truth.
we know your aim so we ain't giving u.
Re: 2023: Igbo Leaders In Strong Push For Presidency by RTSC: 7:48pm On Oct 27, 2019
A seating vice president lost in his own polling unit, and one clown here is talking nonsense.

Peter obi cleared his own polling unit by nearly 100%.

Level pass level.

Buhari overinflated osibanjo, while atiku with his corrupt bagagge stressed the obi brand to the limit.

Many people I know would have voted if peter obi was running for president instead of atiku.

PDP can reward the Igbos with the presidential ticket for their loyalty but they should not expect such from APC.

Ahh, what political clout does Obi have in his Anambra State? None!

Obianu has defeated him twice, back to back. VP candidate that could not clinch his home state from opposition. How does the effeminate-speaking clown hope to secure SE for PDP, not to talk the South? People stood around Atiku in last election. Left alone as ticket bearer for PDP, Obianu of APGA would still deny Obi a victory in Anambra. Fact! grin grin

Obi is not a political leader, he is a political prostitute like Owelle.

Obi is the best Governor ever in anambra state.
A governor that was impeached for integrity and won back his mandate.

Look at how many votes he got from anambra during the presidential elections.

Obiano cannot get it in ten life times.

so u want the same devilish Hausa Fulani party that u hate with passion to present an igbo man as president? the problem u people have is that u lie to yourself a lot n u lose touch with reality. the earlier d better u realize that apc can never n will never field an igbo man as candidate.go n meet pdp, ask yourself what have u done for apc other than hating them. u hated okorocha simply because he's an apc man despite d fact that u have governors that are far worse than him, do u think apc is blind to all this? u hate someone n u want him to compensate u with his most cherished property, is that possible? y not go to pdp that u have served wholeheartedly for good 20 years?

Jonathan was a Southerner running as president.
Ipob was also not a very serious thing then and everybody got behind the ticket.

The only comparable thing would have been if peter obi was running for president.

An atiku running for president is not as exciting as a Jonathan.

This is what played out between the south west and north in Buharis presidency.

Igbo's coming out of nowhere and wanting to think they can break the alliance might back fire and we would loose out big time.
i know right.
just wanted to sound u out.

You just keep gallivanting on the thread about Obi and other Irrelevances. Even if a goat contested against Buhari, the SE voters would have still voted against a Buhari.

Also, the SS and SE right from time are core PDP states and since 1999 PDP have always won the south because of the number of both SE&SS.

Even if a pig contest against APC in a presidential election, the pig will still win the south and don’t keep mentioning Obi that doesn't have any political relevance!

Since you believe a pig will win the south for PDP, don't bother campaigning in the south.

Just go and start begging the K States to show you mercy and pray they will vote for you guys as much as they voted for buhari which I doubt.

i have said it the biggest mistake Atiku made was giving Obi the vp slot, who else SE wan vote for? he would have made more headway if he had found a VP from the SW.
