I like Peter Obi, but the fact that igbos are too tribalistic and insultive. I am not voting. Except for tinubu won the primary. If not, I'll stay in my house on election day

if u see the way they are promoting peter obi ehn,it’s highly annoying
U insult everyone n then present your candidate n expect those u inadult to vote your candidate

U will hear things like

If not that Nigerians are stupid…..Peter obi
If not that those aspirants are greedy and useless…..Peter obi

Someone even said it’s only an insane person that won’t vote Peter obi

One of them said any Nigerian that doesn’t vote peter obi should b taken to psychiatric hospital

Those words makes me distance myself from him,I will prefer to vote against him than to vote for him

I want to see if heaven will fall if he doesn’t win

Belial06:
What is wrong with these ones? Do you think you are being sensible?

When you act like a tout like this then in another thread declare support for another candidate don't you think people will never want to vote for your candidate ? Because 8f you can behave so thuggish like this there is no way you can convince me to support any one a tout like you supports .

It's just impossible. This is how alot of you cost Atiku the last election. You spent so much time online abusing buhari and it made alot of Northerners dislike Atiku .

they are funny lots with the same modus operandi

They will create a thread each to insult all aspirants n another separate thread to praise Peter obi that can’t even win in south east

Opolopoopolonio:
Forget Lawan. Back Amaechi.

You can't be clamouring for an Igbo president and be backing a northerner at the same time...

is Peter obi not coming again?

OFFICIAL336:
It's either Lawan or Amaechi.

Nothing for traitors.

You can't betray your brother and expect them to stand behind you.

When we tell them they play ewedu and Amala politics they thought we are insulting them.

They started by forming their fake Southern Unity to blackmail PDP into zoning power to the South to make it easy to steal APC ticket.

It failed.

Now they thought blackmailing APC to zone ticket to the South will get them the ticket.

We true Nigerians are standing behind Lawan. If it goes to the South, it goes to Amaechi. Osinbanjo is also an alternative.

PDP VP will go to either Okowa or Ihedioha. Labour Party will go to SE and NW while NNPP will go to NW and Yoruba Christians.

No room for slittery, shady and unreliable snakes.

We Move.

so south east will not support peter obi again?

CalabarPikin:
We d watch



APC all of a sodden opting for southern presidency is quite funny though.

All of that shit I guess is stand against Peter Obi
They'll really need to divide to rule even if it takes them loosing to PDP, so far as na north still dey power

If two northerners emerges (APC and PDP), then Peter Obi will definitely have south on side

That not withstanding though

HOW I'LL CAST MY VOTE FOR 2023

Presidency => LP (Peter Obi)
Gubernatorial => APC (Prince Otu)

I'm a strong PDP supporter, but this time, it should be individual, not party


Obi for President

so south south that wants pdp deputy will vote obi?
So south west that want apc presidency will vote obi?
So north will not vote atiku again but your peter obi

I said it that Peter obi fans are d most delusional,they hav lost touch with reality

Their own is just to shout,let everyone vote peter obi without considering other peoples interest

Na only south east go vote Peter obi

helinues:
And how is he going to get it? Cos Obi's popularity is majorly online and in real life,just SE and some part of SS and SW.

If you asked average Northerners who is Peter Obi, their response would be may be a footballer

how many governor does Labour Party have?
How many big wigs are supporting him in Igbo land?
How many big wigs are supporting him in anambra?
Someone that apga is ruling his state

If buhari shut down twitter his ambition has collapsed niyen

Someone who is only known online,have u ever seen anything peter obi outside social media?

Where is doyin okupe?

So they believe d core north will vote for peter obi whom they see as another nnamdi kanu

As it stand now south east is for peter obi,south south will b divided between apc n pdp,south west is for Yorubas aspirants

Atiku will take 55% of north n d rest will b shared

AstralBody:
Someone should get a big empty bowl,the wailings of Tinubu cretins will be many today

chukwummmdi they are just showing you block head what obtains in d constitution,this is quite different from give us Biafra noise u shout on the street as if Biafra is candy

PrinceOfLagos:
Tinubu has been disgraced as predicted

He's now fighting to save face

If lawal Ahmed candidature sails through , Orji kalu who recommended him to APC may possibly be his Vice or next senate president and that automatically makes south west the biggest loser in all of these

u are just a miserable guy

Even after reading 9 u still come out to talk thrash,how will u force tinubu to sign withdrawal letter?

This is what we have been telling those illiterate about consensus they keep shouting,many people just want to hate they really don’t care if they are making sense or not.
They just want to keep saying something,life don already tire d ever miserable princeoflagos,now he doesn’t even read headlines again he will just drop any hate comment that comes to his head

fyneguy:
The VP or his campaign organization has said nothing about the crisis in his Party.

Is this a show of weakness, which seems to justify why many prefer a stronger Tinubu for the ticket?

who is osinbajo?
A political neophyte,he only get mouth cos he’s in a nominated position
Has he ever won any elective position before?
Person wey dey lose him own polling unit

FallenShitHole:
Muguh!! What are you still waiting for? Wake up from your dream and face reality. Lawan is the concensus candidate. May be you have malaria and still hoping your Tinubu will become your president. Daft!

do u even know d rules guiding consensus or u just want to talk rubbish from an empty brain?
U don’t even know for a consensus candidate to emerge all aspirants must agree n append their signature as sign of approval for democratic process to avoid court disqualifying d candidate

U people just talk without knowing d meaning no wonder many of u were saying buhari was cloned,u don’t even know d meaning but u must just say something

D latest news fir your quick info is that all candidate should go to the field n stop all these display of ignorance cos it’s annoying

Crixxx:
Lol. Disgraced.
Grandpa Tinubu olodo ode should go and rest before he rests in peace.
Meanwhile on the other news

Oga delegates are voting tomorrow so forget d madness of consensus,buhari has given d order for everyone to go to field

AlfaSeltzer:
Lawan and Atiku will divide the northern votes.

Yoruba Christians will rally Obi.

If Tinubu is bitter, he might throw his weight behind Obi just to spite the North, bring some Yoruba muslims with him.

The rest will depend on INEC rigging.

yorubas will rather support atiku than any Igbo

Kalu portrayed igbos in a wrong way n nobody will look their side

brighly:
It seems like APC is leaning toward a northern candidate which implies APC and PDP will present northern candidates for 2023. The south can and the majority of north-central should rally around a southern candidate Peter Obi or Yemi Osinbajo under a different party and allow PDP and APC to divide the northern vote. This will guarantee victory for the southern candidate, otherwise, perpetual suffering and untold hardship await our people.

I will rather vote atiku than Peter obituary

Instead make kalu congratulate atiku na lawan mugu go congratulate

PrinceOfLagos:
This man is intelligent

not where atiku dey n tinubu

Miracle2020:
I will urge all south south and south west to vote for Amaechi so that this corrupt Tinubu will not be allowed to win the ticket.

we know u are an hater,keep whining yourself

Miracle2020:
Tinubu winning kaduna? You must be joking.

have u forgotten that ganduje has apc structure in kaduna n na tinubu person,

Anambragully:
Yellow Yellowba ronu oooo

y don’t u allow yorubas to face their problem

Omo olodo ide
The headache of mpuru mmiri

XerXers:
He has plenty stolen money which others don't have and delegates are hungry

anything that makes u sleep well at night

All I know is he has better advantage over others

Truthisunique2:
Just look at that pic alone all aspirants are selling what they have done or can do

Only Mr Pee-poo is drawing childish cartoon and been self entitled that he alone can defeat atiku

emeka

U should b more concerned about how Peter obituary will come 5th in d election

By tomorrow everything is Will b laid to rest

michlins:
no one in APC currently enjoys the support Tinubu enjoys within the party not even Buhari. He just didn't manage it well and that's why he went on a tirade the other day the party decision is supreme. If Tinubu insists on not obeying the party,he can be kicked out for "anti party affairs".

Tinubu biggest power comes from the walls of people he built around him and now, those ones are the people jostling the ticket with him and that's why he would appear weakened

if it’s that easy to kick out they would have done that,if tinubu is not given d ticket they know it will cost them a lot n at that stage he can do anti party anything which will spell doom for them

If it’s that easy to kick out they would have done it,I am telling u with no cap now that once tinubu doesn’t have it tomorrow it’s automatic win for atiku I can bet my everything on it

Apc knows this,they are trying to give another person without tinubu getting angry but the abeokuta outburst scatter their plans cos they never believed tinubu could go that far

michlins:
The only reason APC will choose consensus is to deny Tinubu ticket. Under normal circumstances,he will pick up the ticket.

First they refused statutory delegates which would have made him a winner right before the primaries. When they saw he has enough delegates still, they resorted to consensus.

But then,no one knows if they're going to do consensus sha

in d option of consensus inec provide that all aspirants must agree n append their signature

We have 3 main contestants which are tinubu,osinbajo n Amaechi

How will they tell anyone of them to drop his ambition n sign in support of d other?

Even if they tell others n threaten them,how will they force tinubu to sign when he knows he has an upper hand?

AntiMahdi:
Who said anything about Lawan?

It is either Amaechi (from the south) or one of the few dark northern contenders who is yet to be revealed.

You do know that the APC extended form sales?

You do know that there is no law that makes one's intention to contest public after buying and submitting the nomination form?

We are hours away from the convention outcome.

Bookmark this thread.

name 5 northern candidate in the 13 man list released?

Name 10 northern candidate from d 23 man list of people who bought apc form?

Then tell me who u know better than lawan?

The dark horse that even u don’t know?u are just a beer parlor analyst

For buhari not to name his candidate in less than 24 hours to primary then u should know something is cooking,they never expected the ogun outburst from tinubu n they never believed tinubu could pull a large crowd of governors n stakeholders

They know if they deny him ticket they will have problem n they don’t want to give him

Right now they are at crossroads of whom to chose n how to go about it n the advantage tinubu has is that primary must hold n once primary holds he will b d likely winner

Ask your self,if it’s that easy for buhari to pick someone n everyone will follow him without any problem,don’t u think he would have done that since?

AntiMahdi:
When asked in a press conference few days to the election whom he will like to see succeed him, Obasanjo said :"I am not God and can't say for certain the future and on whom will succeed me. But one thing I do know is , I know who I am not handing over power to".

If you think Buhari does not have a say in who will succeed him then you don't know how powerful the office of the president is.

Buhari not endorsing Tinubu is a clear pointer to the fact that Buhari does not want tinubu to replace him.

Have you asked why Buhari is yet to make mention his preferred candidate? Or have you forgotten when buhari said he had someone in mind to succeed him but that he won't reveal that person's identity for fear of his safety.

Tinubu is drunk on his own self importance and entitlement not to see that he is the least favorite to succeed Buhari.

At the end, Tinubu will be forced to try his luck with SDP.

We are hours away from the convention result , so no need to argue.

Bookmark this thread .

u are just basing your analysis on wishful thinking n not reality,u are talking as if u have a mirror that is showing u what everyone is thinking

It’s just about “do u think buhari “……”buhari will not do this”…..base your reality on facts.

Forget all those conspiracies u are springing up

AntiMahdi:
Story.

The APC was meant for one thing only - secure the presidency for Buhari.

Buhari has achieved his goals and if he were allowed to pick his successor he would have resorted to his usual nepotism and sectionalism to pick a candidate from among his Daura kinfolk.

The reason why the 11 northern governors are demanding it goes to the south is to ensure Buhari does not pick his successor from his usual pot of nephews, cousins and relatives. The north wants Buhari out of office plus all his Daura clan.

So my dear friend, the 11 northern governors want to retire the APC because once a southerner emerges , they will back Atiku.

You should understand that northern politics does not accommodate for party consideration. It is either a vote for a northern Muslim candidate or nothing.
.
What you are seeing is a replay of the Yaradua game plan used by the north to get rid of IBB whom they goaded to handover and even allowed him the freedom to pick his own preferred candidate.

You guys are learning.

u don’t know anything,u better rest

So u mean apc will present lawan right?
Even u writing this,do u know lawan state,ward,local government?

U just believe buhari will talk n everyone will keep quiet like that,so people who have stakes with other aspirants n are working modalities of them getting something in return will just vote for buhari candidate?

Buhari is leaving next year meaning he will b relegated from politics mainstream,so u expect delegates that still want to remain in d mainstream of politics to vote for d candidate of a man that will b irrelevant next year

It’s like u don’t know delegates are politicians n hustlers like everyone

blancsn1:
You are not intelligent. Buhari couldn't make himself president, same goes for Tinubu.

The both represent the best prospect for APC. Failure for them to work together is leaving the door wide open to PDP.

don’t mind them,they just drop any thrash without thinking it through

Amaechi or osinbajo can’t win for apc,if they deny tinubu d ticket it will b automatic win for pdp n them go open buhari yansh anyhow

AntiMahdi:
No need for grammar.

If Buhari wanted Tinubu he would have backed him since.

So we are now at the point where Tinubu will leave the APC and move to SDP to try his luck with a Muslim-Muslim ticket .

Just like Abiola's Hope '93 campaign , Tinubu will be contesting on the same SDP platform with a northern Muslim running mate.


Is Karma not a bitch ?

u are just a mumu
Till now buhari haven’t mentioned any consensus rubbish or candidate

Once a primary takes place just know for sure tinubu will win,this is d main reason they are jittery

Tinubu is saying just one thing,let everyone go for primary then if he loses he will accept defeat

The only thing that can stop tinubu from having the ticket is if primary is canceled n u know that’s impossible except apc won’t have a candidate cos court will disqualify whoever is d consensus

NwaorguF:
The media space was awash with the video clips of the vituperation of one of the frontline presidential aspirants of APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu pooh-poohing President Buhari.

Tinubu who was in Ogun State continued his consultation with party leaders and delegates to seek their support at the National Convention of the party in Abuja.

While speaking in his native Yoruba language, the former National Leader of APC who was visibly angry recalled how he had helped enthrone Buhari as President after three failed attempts at the polls. He further told a bewildered audience that the President was seen weeping on National Television.

While some persons particularly the leadership of the APC at the centre and some leaders of the party of the Northern extraction took a swipe at Tinubu for his unguarded, demeaning statements, some others who are close associates of the Lagos strongman rose in his defence.
Although Tinubu is said to have recanted his widely publicized statement, it is surprising that the President's aides have not uttered a word in response.

The crux of my article is the undertone of the venomous attack, even if it is laced with some truth. Tinubu did not unconsciously fire the shot. It was a well-calculated onslaught against Buhari. His reason stems from Buhari's statement when he met with the Progressive Governors of APC, over the search for the party's flag bearer for the presidential ticket. Buhari had sought "reciprocity" from the governors whom he said had earlier chosen their successors and in some cases, obtained the party's ticket for a second tenure. The signal was clear that Buhari was poised to influence the choice of who flies the party's flag.

This position did not go down well with Tinubu's camp which believes that the President may not favour their principal.The bottled-up anger forced Tinubu to unleash his hidden thoughts of how he is expecting payback from Buhari for ensuring he fulfilled his ambition to become the Nigerian President after several attempts. It was a subtle force majeure to stop Buhari from going against an existing ' 'contract' albeit without a binding document.

Buhari who had indicated a few months back that he has his candidate who would become his successor seemed to have backtracked after Tinubu's outburst. There were insinuations before this time that the former military Head of State would endorse one of these three: Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, Emeka Nwajiuba and Ogbonnaya Onu. Amaechi seemed to have been mostly favoured considering his exceptional courage in helping Buhari win the ticket of the party in 2014 when Abubakar Atiku and Rabiu Kwakwanso were both tipped and supported by Tinubu. Amaechi it was thought would have been Buhari's running mate but the President asked Tinubu to choose the Vice President, to curtail the fallout from the primaries where Tinubu felt crushed by Amaechi who had not long joined the party from a faction of the ruling PDP, known as the nPDP.

It was no wonder Buhari sustained his winning streaks by maintaining Amaechi as the Director-General of his campaign, back to back. Amaechi since being appointed as Transportation Minister has not only proved his mettle as an experienced administrator but has further given the government a face and the party, reasons to campaign for the next election.

Ogbonnaya Onu and Emeka Nwajiuba may not have any visible significant contributions toward the actualization of the APC manifesto but they have been close allies of Buhari. They form part of his kitchen cabinet having followed him from his political sojourn through APP to ANPP to CPC and APC.

It is not in doubt that the battle would have been between an older Tinubu and a younger Amaechi.

The strategy to withhold Buhari's endorsement of his own choice seems to have favoured the Tinubu group as the President has asked the party and the aspirants to continue the search for a consensus candidate or at least trim down the list of aspirants to three.

While some believe that Amaechi would emerge through a consensus arrangement largely influenced by the President, and Tinubu would succeed at a delegate election due to the number of Governors supporting his ambition, the President still has a constitutional and moral burden to ensure that he contributes to the success of a candidate of his choice if he has run a check on all of them based on the state of the nation.

It is not likely that any one of them would have a perfect rating but there are essential parameters that any candidate beyond just being favoured to win, must possess.

Whatever the dynamics that play out, the simple truth is that Buhari has to prove his 'blackmailers' wrong or go down in history as one who succumbed to the antics of his mockers.

Written by Christie Oby Ndukwe

what I will tell u for sure is if it comes to direct primary none of them can win tinubu

Everyone knows that n apc knows that n that’s y they are skeptical about d primary


Tinubu is just asking for one thing,let everyone have a fair trial n let’s go to d field which is his democratic right

AntiMahdi:
There is this wise saying that humans will call those who see a step ahead of the crowd a genius, those that see two steps ahead as prophets to be revered as God-sent but those that see beyond this as raving lunatics.

The gift of using hindsight knowledge coupled with the present to make a future prediction is not really a gift but an attribute of a good student of history coupled with cognitive skills to arrive at a correlation based on evidential facts to make an informed guess of a future event and/or factors leading such movements.

A conspiracy theorist is one who does not subscribe to the accidental theory of history but one who knows very well that the Hunan brain is more than capable in planning and defining their own future.

It was the CIA that coined the phrase "conspiracy theorist" and evoked the larger society to see such keen observers of Hunan society as those belonging to the lunatic fringe .

For over 7ys now we warned you of Buhari and his fulanization agenda under the guise of islamization.

Can you now say we were right all along and not the raving bigoted partisan lunatics that was used to great efficiency to dismiss our cries?

We were and still no smarter than you.

We are only attentive to Hunan tragedy and how it all is tied to a conspiracy by some to enslave and subjugate you.

u people are just utterly stupid

They are killing people every Monday in your region but u ain’t concerned,it is yorubas that will find solution to their problem that u are crying about

Our amotekun n leaders are up to the task already but we don’t see that whenever u kill yourself like fowl in d poverty capital of d south

U have foresight but can’t see nnamdi kanu men will kill your mothers n wipe away families
Pathetic souls with their madness,u destroy your region cos of hate for Fulani n now your eye don clear

See how yorubas handle Fulani case,it shows we are a million miles ahead
