PDP will lose a lot of vote in the southeast in 2023 election due to the following.

The 2015 and 2019 voting pattern in the South East was a kind of protest vote against APC who they see as people who cheated Jonathan out of power. With Buhari out of the game in 2023 the voting pattern will change and
PDP will lose a good number of it's voters in the South East to APC.

2. The rumour of killing of igbos in Oyigbo is another factor that has dampen the excitement the south east have about Wike and PDP.

3. The defection of Gov. Umahi to APC will lead to more defection before 2023 and this will affect PDP. Votes in the SE.

The days of 5% APC and 95% PDP in the South East are over.

APC has more visible projects in South East than the PDP but PDP gave South East more appointments than APC so each of the party has something to compaigñ with in the southeast.

The Southeast is now a level playing ground for both parties.

toluxe0075:
PDP is just a very unserious political party in this country. As soon as they lost the presidential power, they became complacent. No action or whatsoever to put the ruling party on their toes. Pdp is no different to ApC anyways. They are probably hoping to snatch power again and continue with their fuckery.

emperor863:


A very big error of assumption. APC will win 2023 elections without the southeast if it is necessary. At the same time, APC will rule the country successfully with or without southeast support.

What is currently going on in Nigeria that you are gloating about (people of your extraction are usually happy when bad things are happening) is due to the political inexperience of Buhari and his morbid fear of military coup (having been removed from office once) that made him to appoint trusted persons who have parochial interest and therefore unsuitable for governance of a country as complex as Nigeria.

The next APC government will rule successfully with or without Igbo support just like GEJ ruled without the support of the southwest in 2011 - 2015.

Events of the last few weeks have indicated that PDP is ended. I need not say much on this for now.

Moferere:
South East is overrated and the PDP know it.
Despite having their son on the ballot in 2019, South East gave PDP the least votes in the South.
And you think any reasonable party that's aware of high voter apathy in the East will give them its ticket?
Below is the score of PDP in the southern part of Nigeria in 2019.
South East — 1,693,485
South West — 1,776,670
South South — 2,231,232

tuniski:

It is better that way. Let PDP get the votes in Kano and the votes of the entire south east would pale to little.

Eastlink:
The SE are the cause of their political predicaments today. They lost the plot after the death of Zik. No matter how the pro-Biafran dumb bandwagon may want to paint Zik, he made sure the Igbos got their fair share in the power sharing equation. Any wonder why since 1993 no Igbo have come close to attaining the Presidential seat. Following the PDP stupidly was a political mistake that has come back to hunt Igbos.

Seeing that the PDP had no future for them from 1999 -2003, they should have joined any formidable party to send them packing. But that was never done. In 2003 when the opportunity presented itself they foolishly played the southern game by supporting Obasanjo instead of a Buhari with a SE running mate. They had the opportunity with Buhari/Okadigbo ANPP but cowardly supported Obasanjo. What did Obasanjo gift them in return, political death? The same Obasanjo is the godfather of MASSOB who has now metamorphosed to IPOB, a monster currently ravaging the Igbo nation.

The opportunity arose again in 2007 with Buhari / Umezuoke but still our people ignorantly sold their birthright supporting Yar’adua / GEJ. Though Yar’adua was fair to everyone, but fairness and sympathy votes don’t count in Nigeria.

The last opportunity came in 2015 when Buhari toured the SE for Igbo alliance. A zone that had stood with him since 2001, but what he saw made him weep. Seeing that he couldn't get it he looked to the SW. This was where Ndigbo shot themselves in the foot. Even when the likes of Rochas with his APGA faction along with Ogbonnaya Onu ANPP rallied Ndigbo to join the APC, the wicked PDP politicians of Igbo extraction called them outcast and continued dining with the PDP. What should have been a bargaining chip in the APC was sold on the alter of greed. By foolishly standing with GEJ in 2015, the SE sounded their political death knell.

Well, It’s never too late than never. The SE must leave the PDP in drove, either starting a new party or seek the fellowship of the APC. A people must have self-worth and not be easily swayed by emotions. This is the lesson.

Preshob:



Thank you Sir!!! you holistically summarised everything. We Igbos are not fighting a short-term battle or a battle that'll benefit a selected few to the detriment of the larger population. We have our standards and live by them!!

Nairalanders should expect their pictures displayed here on this forum soon. We've gotten their pictures and we are waiting for them to misbehave.

Okwyjesus:


Always remember that igbos are the most traveled tribe in Nigeria and majorly dont stay in their home state but that does not change their identity even in the poll.
l reside in Rivers as Igboman and l drove down to vote PDP alongside my wife even my younger brother told me he voted PDP also. So the south south votes you are counting includes igbos residing in those towns. Same with Lagos etc

Politics is changing. No be mailed vote Biden carry floor Trump

okpukpu:


South east...yes
Igbos... NO

Moferere:


Hausa are well travelled too.
So, your excuse holds no water

Maobichek:
I read most comments here and I have the following submissions:
1. Op based his assertion on Ebony State governor's decamp to APC.
2, Op is not an Igbo man though he claimed to be Igbo.
3, He only insulted Igbos and desire like minds who helped via their comments.
4, Igbos prefer fairness in government policies to the office of the president. (Only Igbo politicians who have parochial interest would opine that Igbos want presidency more that fairness in policies administered in Nigeria).
5, Buhari has tried but hunger still persist in Nigeria .(EndSars protest is as a result of ppl's uncomfortable with the government, Igbos didn't start EndSars protest).
6, From majority of the comments here, the aim of this thread is to exhibit hate against Igbos.
In conclusion, People should stop fanning the ember of hate and tribalism, we need a better Nigeria and not tribalism and hate, thank you.

nzeobi:

Oga its about vote ratio the zone gave to PDP and apc. And mind you some of votes pdp got in other zones also came from igbo dominated enclaves.

gwafaeziokwu:




Igbos rejection of APC is a bitter pill difficult to swallow for the egomaniacs.

They will taste it once more in 2023 and Igbos will be fine still. Once you are big you are big, anyone that thinks otherwise is on a long thing.

The have been dishing unsolicited political advice to us since 2015, we no even send.

Thank you brother,May Allah continue to bless you

Irrespective of how you look at it, whether by ratio or numbers, Igbo are not getting it right.

They voted along a single line and majority of their people refused to vote.
Yoruba spread their votes.
If Atiku had won, Yoruba would have stood a better chance to demand for better positions than igbos

nzeobi:

Lol, core northern states have always voted buhari since 2003, nothing like spreading of votes to them.
How would yoruba have stood better chances if pdp have won when we know the tribe that Gave pdp majority of the votes in lagos.
Am telling you that SE gave pdp about 70-75% of the total valid votes cast and yoruba gave him around 45 %.
So who has more bagging power.

What makes you think Nigeria has 3 regions instead of 2 or 6 zones?

Is criminal to tag the whole north as a single zone/ region or whatever while south as two. The north has more tribes than the south, the north is more diverse than the south. Just because they adopted Hausa as their lingua franca that doesn't mean North is single tribe if that's the case then south that adopted Pigieon as their lingua franca should also be called one regardless of tribe.

Nchenches:
.

A presidential candidate must win 25% of votes in 24 states before proclaimed winner. No presidential candidate from the south can win, unless anointed by Fulani as stooge.

Nchenches:



3 regions formed Nigeria, not 2, in 1960.

The later proliferation of 20 new states in the northern region, but 17 states in the 2 southern regions, by northern military dictators, automatically shifted absolute powers and economic advantages to the northern region.

QuotaSystem:


Not anointed.

But Co-operative like the SW and not antagonistic like you Igbos are. Even the SS are now more politically relevant.

Your Fulani/Arewa hating is plain political suicide.
