I agree with you 100%. The problem here is equity and balance. You can't give the SW the presidency or the VP. If pdp must woo the north, it had to give them presidency. The NE, in my opinion should get it. Anything less than VP to the SE will be day light robbery. That leaves the next big post: SP. Maybe the bot chairman, say.

In your estimation, what positions will appease the SW?

[b] I totally support the South East getting Vice Presidency. It is long overdue and it should be used as preparation towards finally getting the Presidency.

Back to the South West, the only way I feel PDP can make do is to follow the exact same route Tinubu followed when he was the only man standing in the South West during his AD/AC days; which is performance. Truth be told, Fashola dwarfed Tinubu when it comes to achievements in Lagos, but Tinubu also shined during his Hay days. He was regarded as the most performing Governor in SW at the time, and his work in Lagos helped him garner enough goodwill to catch more states gradually. Yorubas loved him for performing(tho he also fed himself on the side) and wanted his influence in their states.

If only Fayose was a serious man, I would have suggested the party reach out to him to start making huge moves and begin capital intensive projects that will transform Ekiti state. If the PDP hierarchy can reach out to him to stop his noise making and get to work, then talk to the pdp local government chairmen in the Southwest to also begin to perform, believe me when I say the mindset of the Yorubas will begin to sway with or without the support of the SW political juggernauts that felt left out. Yorubas believe in performance and are rarely swayed by sentiments, it is well known. So why not utilize it?

SERIOUS Performance is the only way out for the PDP in the Southwest, and they had better begin now before it's too late [/b]

you forgot to state that the total number of registered voters in Kano is more than those in the entire SE combined, and in Kano, Buhari is king!

patpaul:
You are very wrong! 2019 election will be payback time for BUHARI AND APC POLICIES, ESPECIALLY , THE POLITICS OF CORRUPTION FIGHT AND HERDSMEN INVASION.
It is only the unborn child that doesnt know that the fight against corruption is only to subdue and rubbish the opposition PDP. THE HERDSMEN INVASION and the lukewarm response by the APC'S FG WILL BOOMERANG against them in 2019. The major reason a state like Plateau could be wone by APC in 2015 was the poor inability of the PDP FG to stem the FULANI attacks in that state during thier rule. With the way the HAUSA/FULANI HERDSMAN are invading and killing people of every region now that thier Life patron is the President , do you think majority of the middle belt people will vote APC?
So in summary, the North vote will be divided almost equally amongst the two northern presidential candidates ; the S/E and S/S will be a no -go area for the APC WHILE the PDP will get one-third of the votes in the S/W. I leave you to decide the winner.

lol I repeat that no politician in the north can match Buhari. Your talk about middle belt splitting the northern votes into two is quite myopic to say the least, and with all due respect to your person. If your memory should serve you correctly, just the votes alone from Kano was enough to demolish the entire votes from the South East last year. So I don't see what impact Jos alone can make in the grand scheme for now. Plus keep in mind tht APC still has three years to bedazzle the entire country, with which we will get to see the implementation of this first budget. So my brother, leave that side. PDP can't do nada, and you have lost your Southwest votes for relegating them to the background of your leadership structure.

Eluwilussit:
You are smart. The North will get Chairman, Presidency and maybe bot chairman as well. The SW needs more attention, something like SP.The SE should provide VP. SS should get speaker. There should be some real effort at equity. Balance will be key.

you've hit the nail on the head. But let's be honest, promise of senate presidency won't be enough to cajole the SW heavyweights into giving 100% support. Getting that Senate Presidency is not totally assured as APC's failure to install their choice as Senate President has already demonstrated it last year. Plus let's keep in mind the fact that the opposition party might work against PDP's choice just like PDP did last year. So, I think the party needs to work more towards appeasing the Southwest with something more concrete before the elections. I hope you see my angle?

hausameat:
I now believe that certainly, some pains can be more painful that some. This apc boy is more likely to commit suicide from the result of pdp convention.

if you can't counter with an intelligent argument, do your best to shut up. Your opinion isn't needed by me nor will it ever be.

[b] These people have just given APC the rocket launcher to blow them out of existence come 2019. How foolish can these people get? The SW PDP they just discarded now are those that managed to almost tie the votes GEJ got in 2015 with Buhari. Now that there won't be anybody to campaign for them here in the SW, what then is the point?

In 2019 when the election comes, let's break down how the public voting based on the mindset of each zone will be when a Northern Presidential aspirant comes forth from the PDP:

North; It is well known that no northern politician alive today can match the popularity of Buhari. So please tell me who in the pdp will have the liver and power to confront him in the North when votes and public charisma is involved? Buhari at worst will definitely score 75% of all the votes in the north. Meaning APC wins, PDP loses

South East; They have been clamoring for an Igbo presidency, and they heavily campaigned against the North during the last election. Will they suddenly turn around and start singing praises of another Northern candidate just because he's from the PDP? Bear in mind that the actions of the Fulani herds men of late does not favour anybody from the north in the SE. Though I predict a narrow win for the PDP, expect a very low turn out of voters because nobody would care about any of the APC and PDP candidates. While this is a win for the PDP, it might not be a win on the long run because overall numbers will matter.

South South; the general mindset is also going to go almost the same way of the South East, though there might be more voters turn out in favour of the PDP here. Overall, numbers will still not be enough to guarantee anything.

South West; Now this is going to be the funniest of all. PDP having just lost their political structure in the Southwest, who will campaign for them when the elections come? The public perception of PDP in the SW is at an all time low, and tonight has just made it even lower. Does anybody think Yoruba people will stand and watch some people from other zones come to tell them to vote for people who couldn't carry their indigent important politicians along when they were working the shenanigans of their political structure? Very laughable. With nobody of value to campaign for them, even KOWA will win more votes than PDP. APC will sweep almost all the votes here.


So in summary, I don't see how PDP hopes to make any serious impact in the next election. They have shot themselves in the foot and it will not heal in another 7 years to come. CONGRATS APC FOR WINNING THE NEXT ELECTION!

See him bald head. He resemble Pa James son from Papa Ajasco. With an ugly looking face like that, I wouldn't trust him with 500 naira, talk more of 5 million.

Who knows, maybe he's saving up for hair implant surgery on that dilapidated head of his. I even dey see my reflection on that forehead from here


PS; I hear sey na Inspired Autos be this. Abeg na true?

bejeiodus:
Even with the so called marginalization of the Southwest by Jonathan, the PDP still won more than 40% of the votes cast in all the six states. Even Lagos, the base of the APC, was so close. The truth is, the Southwest electorate can today tell an apple from an orange.

lol... I shouldn't even be replying you, but I'll indulge you just this once. They won more than 40% because there was still a pdp stronghold in the SW. Depriving the SW of the seat will inevitably lead to mass defections from pdp. So is it the northerners of the easterners that will come to campaign to the westerners in the SW and expect the people to listen? You must really think Yorubas are foolish.

bejeiodus:
The Southwest has agreed to cede the seat to the North to help revive the ebbing fortunes of the party in that region. Besides, there seems to be a lack of interest in the seat by many politicians from the Southwest. Sheriff should be left to continue with his good job. His accession to office has brought tremendous changes to the party. He is a dogged politician who is well verses in opposition politics. Okupe and other politicians who still want the office zoned to the Southwest need to understand the dynamics of today's politics. The dynamics do not favour having a chairman from the Southwest.

lmao! By the time you get zero South West votes in the next election, you will learn

cocolacec:
Religion brought a manual on divine laws and moral values ordained by The Creator but when humans fails to abide by these Laws we begin to have problem.

Everyone should be equal in the eyes of the law irrespective of his religion,wealth,family ,status in the society but when some are superior and humans deviate from the way God made it to be we tend to have confusion, chaos and unlimited problems in the world.

actually, I'm not against God as a concept. I'm against man's interpretation of him and how they feel it's best to serve him. I believe in one God who created the entire world, but man has twisted and manipulated his understanding of God into forming various ideas and perceptions of who they think God is and how best they think they should worship him. Religion has brought about so much divide and negativity even more than the devil they preach against. I advocate individual spirituality, not religion. Religion is a pain to the world

Quakertellicus1:
Not exactly.I guess the problem is everyone expects the pastor's children to be well behaved because if they are not,it would reflect badly on the pastor. (After all, the Bible does say that a married cleric must be in control of his own house...or else he won't make a good leader.).

It isn'tjust pastors. Any child whose father is in a postion of authority is under far more pressure than those who are not. And that pressure is immense. You can only react to it in two ways....either be excessively good.....or be excessively bad.

I would like to conclude that ultimately as a Christian,it is what God thinks of you that is important. (and no,that is no excuse for bad behaviour). Working to please God means surmounting the fear of falling down.

I think Pastor's daughter started out as a good girl.Problem was...she was being good for the camera.And after as while,it becomes difficult to maintain the facade,and the mask cracks.

And Christianity, as I have learned and am still learning ,is not about being good for the camera. It is always about being good for the Master.

master? What happened to Galatians 4v7?

Pills anytime any day. If you bring 30 pills that I should swallow, I will happily do it than to receive injection.

Aviero:
You're a weakling.

You can actually make the people turn against the Pastor. Since the Pastor has decided to make you miserable; you have to fight back.

This is what you should do: Whenever there is a deliverance session in church, just fake falling under the anointing. Start crying. Start rolling on the floor. Then, start speaking in tongues. Then, say the following words: I have given you enough time. Since you've decided not to repent of your sins, Put your house in order, for I am taking you away. Make sure you put his name in between.

Watch what will follow.

This is a true article from a writer of pedigree. The quality is practically oozing

Sunnycliff:
PMB should better understand that violence and threat is not a permanent solution to peace and mutual coexistence!

what these guys want is money. They don't care about any degradation or neglect. All they want is national cake and they feel they can bully Buhari into dropping the money

chukwudi44:
you don't have power ,refineries are down and you are not taking them serious? seriously?

what is the marginalization they are crying about? Has the budget been signed and implemented that the Niger Delta got marginalized? Or did Buhari not appoint SS ministers too? Is he still not paying Amnesty to the militants? What did Jonathan do infrastructurally for his region since he became Vice President? Why re they now crying? They no get any serious talk abeg. They are just looking for a way to show their useless greed. No be only avengers, na Age of Ultron
