I am really not surprised that Atiku picked Okowa as his running mate for the 2023 elections. Personally, i could not have expected anything better.

In my opinion and from his desperate antecedents, we all know that Alhaji Atiku is only contesting for one purpose only - to enrich himself and his allies to the fullest extent possible with Nigeria's resources.


Atiku on his own is someone that is well known as a "not particularly honest" politician. He still has the American fraud case pending on his head and we all remember how he allegedly sold off most of Nigeria's assets to himself and his allies. One can only imagine how Nigerians will be looked upon internationally with an alleged fraudster jetting around the globe as the Nigerian President.


That said, Okowa of Delta State is one man that has also been privileged to hook his claws into Delta State treasury for decades. Atiku obviously picked okowa because he is relatively unknown nationally and therefore will not outshine his boss. Moreover as someone that is allegedly known for looting Delta to stupor, Okowa will not have any moral dilemma when the sharing of Nigerian loot begins. Its designed to be a free for all buffet, with the Nigerian masses paying the ultimate price!


Should the duo win, life is about to become hell for anyone not opportuned to be close to the ruling class. I do not expect any meaningful impact or development in Nigeria under Atiku/Okowa. But if you are lucky enough to be close to Atiku, then you will undoubtedly be "heavily rewarded". Atiku is very generous to his friends. Anyhow, uncertain times lie ahead!

Lmao this guy is a clown

The Man looked very sick in the last APC convention.
It's not all that well with the man.

Lying is bad !!!

ajailer:
I don't think he is a charlatan but the issue here is that he doesn't know he is not matured yet to be a Nigerian president. If he so happens to be elected which is highly unlikely btw, his performance will be like buhari's. Full of theories but no practical experience. He doesn't he come across to me as someone who will have the will to effect a radical change in the country, things like restructuring and dealing with the insecurity all over the country. I don't dislike him but he doesn't come across as a strong willed personality to me, just see as he bailed out from PDP, a party with structure all over the country to go join LP.

Jamahyel:
shame on you .

Zandena:
Igbos should strategise towards next 16 years after Tinubu 8 years and another Northerner for 8 years with a condition that they would have learnt their lessons and changed the mindset of their younger generation who are being fed with hatred and malice towards other citizens.
Otherwise they will continue to play the second fiddle politically!

So a useless flier is what determines a good president! Empty skull indeed

AntiMahdi:
Because Yaribanza Muslims back then just like now still remain the most uneducated and backward demographic among the Yoruba race.

Go through any crime article reporting on criminality in Yoruba land and yiy will see that 99% of Yoruba criminals, ritualists are always Muslims.

igbo people know how to insert their tribes in every issues

If 2 people are fighting, the igbo people must insert their tribe into it.

If people are smoking, the igbo people must insert their tribe.

If 2 dogs are barking,they must find a way to insert their tribe.

If the dog bite an igbo man, it must be because the owner hate Igbos

If a stone drop on an igbo man, it must be because they hate igbos

They are always looking for how to push victimization narrative even if it doesn't warrant it.

CilicMarin:
Exactly!

Those who are crying over Muslim-Muslim ticket are never going to vote Tinubu/APC- They are majorly IPOB terrorists and PDP supporters. They want APC and Tinubu to fail in the North by picking a Christain VP...

Give us Elrufai, we would win the election before 2PM..

China will “not hesitate to start a war” and “smash to smithereens” any Taiwan independence efforts, its defence minister warned his US counterpart in the pair’s first face-to-face talks.

"If anyone dares to split Taiwan from China, the Chinese army will definitely not hesitate to start a war no matter the cost,” Defence Minister Wei Fenghe said during a meeting with Lloyd Austin on the sidelines of Shangri-La Dialogue security summit in Singapore on Friday.

"The PLA [People’s Liberation Army] would have no choice but to fight … and crush any attempt of Taiwan independence, safeguarding national sovereignty and territorial integrity.” "Taiwan is China’s Taiwan… Using Taiwan to contain China will never prevail,” it said in a statement.

The United States is Taiwan’s most important international supporter and arms supplier, a source of constant friction between Washington and Beijing. In the latest arms package, the US announced on Wednesday the sale of parts for Taiwanese naval ships at an estimated cost of $120m.

During the meeting, Wei told Austin the sale “seriously undermined China’s sovereignty and security interests”, according to state broadcaster CCTV’s military channel. China has increased military activity near the island in recent years, claiming the moves are a response to what it calls  “collusion” between Taipei and Washington.

Vladigor:
Thats how a political party is suppose to be.
But sadly enough, Peter Obi' grassroot movement and upper echelon are not ideological driven.
Peter Obi himself lacks policy direction.

We are going to change the narration in the South East soon.
That's my promise.

Wike will be the Vice Presidential candidate of PDP. I told you about 2 or 3 years ago that Wike will be on the ballot either as president or vp candidate of PDP and you disagreed. I also told you no SE person will be on the ballot of any of the two major parties either as president or vp. Everything I predicted about 3 years ago is coming to play.

That's a father you called a fool. Pls, think again!

The Bible even stated it that stay away from people's wives if you want your days to be long and productive on Earth.

Example in the Bible of King David that slet with urriahs wife....he never ended well.

I know most women do it....but some women are principled and strict.

What then is the excitement or obsession in sleeping with someon wife when there are beautiful succulent young unmarried ladies out there?

I knew it must be them, Is anyone surprised? They've decided to start mining their own bodies, spits.

The stupidity in your post is the APC SW candidates are not asking for a consensus. Tinubu asked for a vote in a free and fair primary

Think before you write

What could have prompted Adamu decision? Why does he want to force tomato seller Ahmed Lawan on Nigeria.

Well, until APC Chairman present him and Buhari raise his hand up as flag bearer, it remains a wish.
