Yes ooo... I rather be an Igbo failure than a Yoruba success.

If someone can open his mouth and say Borno has a bigger internet penetration than Lagos, I rather not be part of a people with such demented reasoning

Is it possible for you to go back and read that statement again before commenting? Where in that write up did he say Borno has a bigger internet penetration than Lagos? or you just chose to manufacture that statement just so it can look like you also know how to talk?

For the record this is what the man said "Borno State is very much into technology. When I requested for applications for the Ovation Palliatives of N5,000 per lucky winner, Borno returned the largest applications of nearly 8,000 applicants closely followed by Bauchi State"

[quote author=SATANICALLY post=113991161][/quote]Please I want to ask a question, is it the same Ekiti where election was just concluded that Labour Party will get 20 percent vote or the Twitter version of Ekiti state?

Penguin2:
The problem with some of you is that you seem to have acute difficulty in differentiating data.

The frenzy about Labour Party is strictly around Peter Obi and not about any state elections.

Ask the residents all the states that are supporting Labour Party, you will realize that most of them are either voting PDP or APC in state elections but for presidential elections, the agenda is to deliver Obi.

So do not judge from Ekiti gubers.

There was never a time any Obi supporter said Labour Party will win Ekiti elections.

So you people should grow up.

My bros, I can deduce that it's not long you've been following or analyzing politics. It is ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE for anybody to win presidential election in Nigeria without structure at the grassroot. I mean his party must be very strong in certain areas and have presence in almost everywhere.

During the presidential elections, who are the people that will mobilize the party agents, in fact, who will be the party agents to make sure the party's candidate is not shortchanged? Is it you that sits down in front of your TV in the city that will make sure that the voters in one village in the far north or west are not intimidated, cajoled or threatened to vote against you?

You sound like miserable person. You lack deep knowledge of public service.

Deep Knowledge indeed.

Sincerely, you need to sue your teacher and whoever took you to that school you attended.

BennyDGreat:
Your point is valid but Muslim-muslim ticket na instant cancellation in some quarters.

See CAN or is it PFN releasing official statement that muslim-muslim ticket will never be accepted.

If they do Muslim-Muslim Ticket, then S.P and other key principal and head of major parastatals must be Christians but it won't still convince some quarters.

The question is- will those people in those quarters work against Tinubu if a muslim-muslim ticket comes from APC?

I like to engage people like you that argue reasonably without sentiment or name calling unlike many children on this forum.

PFN or CAN votes can add to Tinubu's vote but cannot make him or "unmake" him president.

Let us be frank with ourselves, If Tinubu presents Muslim/Muslim, the only christian group that will campaign against him in the West is Catholic which is dominated by the Igbos. The big 'penticostal' churches like RCCG who happens to have Tinubu's wife as one of their ordained pastors and have large expanse of land released to them by Lagos state govt for their redemption camp, Winners that enjoy the support of both Lagos and Ogun state govts, TB Joshua's synagogue that Lagos state refused to prosecute despite many people losing their lives in the mishap that happened in the church, etc. All these churches would never campaign openly against Tinubu.

Once the Northern Oligarchs are in support of Tinubu and his VP believe me he is home and dry. Simple analysis:

Muslim/Christian
All South East States Loss
All South South states Loss except Edo and maybe Rivers because Wike will work against PDP there.
All South West States Won
North Central Loss except Kogi and Plateau
North East Loss except maybe Taraba
All North West States Loss

Muslim/Muslim
All South East States Loss
All South South states Loss except maybe Edo
All South West States Won
North Central Won except maybe FCT
North East Won except Adamawa
All North West States Won

Check out the 2 scenarios yourself and tell me which you would choose if you were Tinubu and your aim is to win election no matter what. The muslim/muslim ticket is not a sure win card for him but the muslim/christian is a sure loss card for him

I don't analyze politics on sentiment but on facts and figures and I've been doing this for a while now.

BennyDGreat:
Oga forget muslim-muslim ticket....it will never happen in Nigeria.....even Atiku will never agree to a muslim-muslim ticket.....Balance is key....

Once you go with a muslim-muslim ticket, forget am, some people even in the North will work against them...Nigeria too delicate cos of the
insecurity

Sentiments aside, all he needs right now is to win election. And there fact on ground is that there is NO NORTHERN CHRISTIAN that has the kind of structure that can sway the muslim dominated north to vote for Tinubu against Atiku.

Even though the Tinubu himself is surrounded by christians in the west and his being muslim is still questionable to the Northern muslim. Any Christian he picks from the north, he should forget block votes from the north. North will be won by Atiku, followed by Kwankwanso, Tinubu would come distant 3rd.

Elections are not won based on sentiments but permutations and combinations and right now, Muslim/Christian ticket for Tinubu is political suicide for him as that would still not make him win anywhere in the south east or significantly in the south south. The only place he has locked down is South West irrespective of who his VP is.

I am not a Muslim by the way.

doxtun:
I am Yoruba and a Christian. I can not and do not know any Yoruba Christian that would support this. If he is courageous enough, he should pick a northern Christian. There are lots of intelligent northern Christians from Kaduna, Benue, Plateau… This might change his odd.

Like who and who?

We are not talking about intelligence, we are talking about who has political structure in the North that can sway the vote of the North against Atiku (a core Northerner) for him.

joyandfaith:
Idiot like you don't even know meaning of public office holder. I wouldn't blame you but Mr Teacher who helped to pass neco.

It's a normal thing when you lack ideas to resort to name calling.

Use your internet for something that will benefit your life. Look up the meaning of public office holder.

Neco? is there any exam called that?

Kayswat:
So, her mother had her while she was 16years old right?
Let's keep capping

A little research would have let you know that her mother is not Oluremi Tinubu. The mother is late.

joyandfaith:
Members of government boards, council including chancellor etc are public office holders.
Government funds political parties though inadequate. Former governors are public office holders by definition because they do enjoy pensions.

I guess you are being sarcastic. If you are not, please you need to go back to your school for refund. You've been duped.

solmusdesigns:
" Governing Advisory Council" is not an official office or a public office known by law and Bola Ahmed Tinubu is not the Chairman

And a Pensioner of any kind that fully retired is not considered as a Public office holder but a private citizen,

You cannot be giving free tutorials to those that don't know the value. It's not right.

The next thing you will hear now is he not the Jagaban of Lagos, therefore he's not a private citizen.

osinbanjoisaliar:
Guy no divert the issue. Tinubu na minority, period!

So is that an abuse? This is English na, to say somebody is in the minority somewhere is an abuse or curse it's just that he or she is not in the majority, simple. Tinubu is a minority muslim in the South. Any Yoruba man in the East is a minority there and vice versa

PaChukwudi44:
Kalu just called Tinubu a minority the Man Sabi yab shaa

No be Yab na, a Muslim is a minority in the South.

South West might be 50-50 but if you look at the whole Southern Nigeria comprising of South East and South South Christianity is in the majority just like Islam is the majority in the North. So, a muslim Tinubu is a minority in the south.

Not a yab, but fact and truth.

ganisucks:
https://thenationonlineng.net/nothing-wrong-with-muslim-muslim-for-tinubu-kalu/

Take this to the bank. This is just the plain truth. Any attempt by Tinubu to pick a Northern Christian, he should kiss the presidency goodbye

Let him make even the Pope himself the VP he can NEVER win in South East, can only struggle in South South. South West is on lockdown for him whether Christian or Muslim VP. The game changer is in the North and all he needs to push him over the edge is a strong Muslim candidate with strong political structure, well trusted by the caliphate and he's cruising to victory.

MKO ABIOLA CAMPAIGN ADVERT DONE IN 1993 and still much Educative ( 29 years ago)

HOW OLD WERE YOU 29 YEARS AGO?

Watch Video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0JHEj68Bos

M.K.O. Abiola ran for the presidency in 1993, for which the election results were annulled by the preceding military president Ibrahim Babangida because of allegations that they were corrupt and unfair.

Abiola was awarded the GCFR posthumously on 6 June 2018 by President Muhammadu Buhari and Nigeria's democracy day was changed to June 12.

Abiola's support in the June 1993 presidential election cut across geo-political zones and religious divisions, among a few politicians to accomplish such a spread during his time.By the time of his death, he had become an unexpected symbol of democracy.

What I'm seeing in this Tinubu run is one needs an ally like Ganduje in ones life journey

PrinceOfLagos:
According to northerners

And this one person's opinion is what ALL northerners are saying? Well, let me tell you for free that whoever tweeted that is politically naive.

Actually the only chance Tinubu has of winning is to field a strong northern Muslim (and that's what he would do by the way, because he has better political strategists than you and I),

Analysis
South West is safely in his pocket. More so, South West are known to have religious tolerance, they don't care if it's muslim on the ballot or christian as long as the person is their own.

South South vote would be shared between PDP and Labour, APC will take it's own small share especially Edo and Akwa Ibom, so no need to worry about muslim/muslim there

South East: Even if Tinubu brings Pope as the running mate he can never win any state there. So no need bothering about muslim/muslim there.

North Generally: Bring in a strong muslim that is appealing to the norther Oligarchs like El Rufai, Shettima, Ganduje etc and watch how the Alhaji Tinubu and Alhaji so so will sell like hot cake up there. Atiku having a christian VP on the ballot, Kwakwanso having a christian VP on the ballot would both be swallowed by the Tsunami.

Summary: A muslim/muslim is Tinubu's only chance of winning that presidency.

Walkee:
if Tinubu wasn't in the race his voters would've voted Osinbajo. Why is everything so difficult for you people to grasp?

You are politically naive sir if you think all those northern delegates that voted for 'Alhaji" Tinubu would vote for "Pastor" Oshibajo against a neutral Amaechi (who by the way was also recently 'turbaned' in Katsina.

gozmok1:
Tinubu's ambition to rule Nigeria will not work because he is a Muslim. Who will he pick as his running mate? Another Muslim from the north? That will not work. PDP will capitalize on that. APC can not risk that. Nigeria is so divided along religious line now that Muslim Muslim ticket or Christian Christian ticket can never ever work. As at the time Abiola picked Kingibe as his running mate, things were not as bad as it is today. And the north will never allow Tinubu to pick a northern Christian either.

If you know real politicking you will know it's that Muslim/Muslim ticket the only chance he has of defeating Atiku if he is given the APC ticket.

South West has always been religiously liberal. Majority don't care if you are a muslim or a christian as long as you are Yoruba.

No matter who Tinubu picks as Vice (even if na Pope) he can never win south East, he may manage to pinch some votes here and there.

The block vote is coming from the core North, present muslim/muslim to them and they will vote en mass for you. Votes from Kano alone is enough to nullify all PDP votes from the SE, remember also that PDP is sharing the SE votes with Peter Obi of Labour

Most of the people screened out like Borofice, Bankole etc are people they know will step down for Tinubu at the convention. They don't want that to happen so has to make it easy for their concession. Tinubu standing alone while other aspirants queue behind the concession candidate

Please, kindly help me out here, I'm trying to conduct a research on the number of regular online, social media, etc users that actually have Voter's card.

Your honest answer is needed here because even though the only way to guarantee accuracy is for you to show the evidence of your PVC but that is not needed for privacy protection. Only honest answer is needed.

I will start with myself, I registered in 2012 but never collected till date. And I'm not even around now to collect it if I want to.


Over to you.

atiku4President:
Let.us see the one for Obasanjo's win in 1999. My brother you may be surprised the SW rejected their own.

They did not actually. They voted their own massively in the name of Olu Falae. Obasanjo was the choice of the North and South East while Olu Falae was the choice of the south west.

Mossadd:
Oshinbajo and zulum/Elrufai will beat ATIKU blue and black Tinubu will be defeated blue and black by ATIKU

You don't know how politics of the North is played. The campaign against "Pastor" Oshinbajo will not be done openly. All they have to do is to be whispering it to the Northern voters that he is a pastor and his plan is to establish church on every street in Nigeria With that no matter who is vice is from the North, in fact, let both Zulum and El rufai combine to be his vice, he would lose scandalously.

Kenneth4u205:
ATiku will win in the north wether Tinubu pick Christian or Muslim vice from the north. The only hope of Tinubu is to win the entire south (SE+SW+SS) and then try to split ATiku vote a bit in the north. But Tinubu miscalculated because he was hoping that PDP will pick their candidate from the south .so he focused all his campaign in the north and south west, neglecting the rest of south .and it's too late now for him to start campaign in South East and South south because we have seen his true hate

You might be right about him still losing North to Atiku, but as I said no matter what Tinubu does, he can never get 30% vote in SE, whether he started campaigning and rolling on the ground there for the last 4 years or he starts now. SS he can still make headway if he starts now, especially if he works underground with aggrieved PDP people like Wike.

All said and done, the North is the master of this game of politics in Nigeria. The plan for North take over has been well laid, and nobody in the south can become president if they don't want you to.

So it's this man that brought Econet, the first telecoms company in the GSM business to Nigeria.

Forward thinking man.

But looks like age is not on his side.

Nyne:
You’re correct . But south east and south south people are humans too na.

Atiku should be the one to consider someone from the south. Someone like Wike.

But he will compress wike's power ehn. He’ll make him powerless.

Atiku shouldn’t have won that primaries

Actually, there is nothing Tinubu can do about the vote of South East. If he wins the APC primaries his best bet and only way he can win is to get a strong muslim from the north. No matter what Tinubu does, he can never win any significant vote in South East. He will struggle in South South. He will get at least 70% of South West. His only way to the presidency is the block vote from the North and to get that he needs a strong muslim northern politician.

NB: any other candidate presented by APC from the south is a walk over for Atiku. Amaechi might still put up a feeble fight, but 'Pastor' Osinbajo would be beaten blue and black.

Nebulax:
SW dominating the Apc presidential candidates is a tactics for the candidates to garner support all over the country and then back out at the last minute to support the preferred candidate.

No loudness on that

But there are only 2 south west candidates garnering support all over the country, others are doing theirs online. So which of of Osinbajo or Tinubu is stepping down for the other at the last minute? Because these are the only 2 south westerns that have support all over the country

Nebulax:
Consensus is the only way to keep the party intact if not, things could be scattered after the primary

Obviously you don't know what concession is. If even 1 out of the 28 candidates refuses to step down it is no more a concession. The opposite of concession is imposition which is what you are unknowingly clamoring for. And obviously nothing scatters a party more than imposition. If elections are conducted on the other hand at least each person would have tested his popularity (or his financial war chest by Nigeria politics), the loss would be easier to take in such a circumstance. Even though there might be aggrieved individuals here and there after that, but would be far less than when you do an imposition.
