The North always suffers from any bad political administration in Nigeria.
However due to[b] high rate of illiteracy and partial literacy in the North[/b], they're still the ones who opt and push for bad leaders from amongst them.

The Southerners (Igbos and Yorubas) are the only ones who can rescue Northern Nigeria from their predicaments because even if for the next 100 years the North hold all political positions in Nigeria they'll get poorer and poorer.

Southern politicians have to unite themselves to salvage Nigeria's economy. Nigeria cannot be left or trusted to the hands of Northerners coz they'll eventually destroy the fabric of Nigeria

OsunOriginal:
Not mentioning Kwakwanso doesn't change anything. The battle ground still remains the north and whoever the APC chooses will determine the strength of the party there.

garfield1:
Does pdp exist in borno or yobe? They dont.votes are usually allocated here.apc has always won bauchi.atiku as usual will narrowly win taraba and Adamawa.gombe may be divided.

Enwhen:
Not all Northwest ..just Kano alone

Crixxx:
Igbos no Dy condone rubbish that why you can't see their kings smoking Igbo or getting involved in internet fraud or raping minors like people in the far away land..

Leebliss13:
The most underdeveloped state in South-west.... Mtchewwwwwww

Crixxx:
Yoruba Muslims forming northerners. The stupidity of a Yoruba man knows no bounds. Spits

garfield1:
With zulum or shettima,they will rubbish atiku

HilcomTech:
Peter Obi must be hallucinating expecting northerners to vote for him after persecuting and even deporting northerners out of Anambra state.

garfield1:
Oga,yaradua,atiku and buhari contested and atiku got less than 10% in the north.why? Because he is not liked nor popular.why will they even vote someone from the north west more than atiku their son? Because something is wrong with atiku.most of the votes atiku got in 2019 was because of the pdp structure unlike buhari that gets 10 mil under any party...I didn't say north east will vote tinubu massively,I said tinubu will narrowly win the north east.the apc structure there is awesome...let me remind that obj and defeated buhari in Kaduna,Niger,gombe and got 30% in the core north.

Finally,atiku is not really a fulani.he's a minority from marghi claiming fulani

ityP:
Tinubu is wise. He will go with a Muslim-Muslim ticket

Captain8:
so ipob no longer Igbos again?

kponkedenge:
This election will be regional.

According to the constitution, you have to win at least 25 percent in each geopolitical region to even have a chance at the presidency.

Correct me if I'm wrong.... But I don't know how Obi will get 25 percent in places like NW, he may try a bit in the NE and NC.

Also, I don't see how Tinubu will get 25 percent in the SE and maybe SS.

Atiku might just get well above 25 percent in each region.

Well, it's just my opinion though.

PericomaNwankwo:
Guys, the most visible truth we can learn from the past elections is that without a united south, a southern candidate cannot win. A united south was paramount to OBJ's two tenures and GEJ's one tenure. A divided south was responsible for the first opposition victory in 2015.

OsunOriginal:
If you don't know that the same calculation that produced Osinbajo as VP is what will produce a muslim from the north as the VP this time, then, I don't think we should continue to discuss this further. Buhari was widely accepted in the north (for whatever reason) and what they needed was a VP that will be acceptable to the majority in the "south" which is largely christian - SW, SE, and SS considered. This is what produced Osinbajo as VP. Picking a muslim from the south would have been catastrophic not because of any balance but because the battle ground (the south) was largely christian dominated. So, they have to appeal to their sentiment. For the 2023 elections, the SW is already on lockdown for Tinubu no matter who he chooses as his VP. The "our son" attraction will over shadow any religious considerations. And regardless of who Tinubu chooses as VP, SE will vote for Atiku and Peter Obi - that has been their way - even you didnt vote for Osinbajo. Tinubu will struggle to 10% of the votes in most SE states regardless. South south will be shared regardless of the faith of the VP to Tinubu. The battle ground (APC vs PDP) therefore is the north and who you pick there as VP matters and will determine the direction of their votes. APC will have to appeal to their sentiment there which is largely along religious line - it unfortunate but that is the reality.

Lubumbashi:
Tinubu/Zulum is a muslim muslim joint candidacy that will be very good for business. I hope Tinubu doesn't listen to his opponents praying for his downfall but forge ahead with a winning combination no matter the religion. Tinubu2023

sotall:
There is no fuse, no diode nor capacitor regarding Muslim-muslim ticket.


Let Tinubu try it first so we see where it will take him on election day

citizenY:
Abi !!!!!

LP has been invaded by a conclave of keyboard rattlers and idealists who think that the ballot box is located in cyberspace with "like" buttons permanently pressed.

How do you expect malformed/malnourished parties like LP/NNpp with no footprints in Local government, legislature, state government and physical presence , 8 months to polling date, to make any meaningful impact in the forthcoming elections?


No mind all these " I FEEL GOOD rabble rousers.....

Polchiz:
If you think Buhari will rig the election for Tinubu, then you are simply delusional. Buhari has nothing to lose. That is why he promised free and fair election.
Edo election, Anambra election, etc is a case study.
Tinubu has a lot of work to do.
No federal might to manipulate anything in his favour. Even El-Rufai struggled to win in Kaduna in 2019.
Kano and Katsina saved Buhari and with Kwankwaso, Tinubu should forget Kano and Katsina completely.
The only left is North Central.

9jii:
Thanks for understanding the necessary.

9jii:
sure Buhari will not rig election for Tinubu.
But you saying kano and Katrina for kwankwaso clearly shows you don't know anything about Northern politics
Even PDP will do better than NNPP in kano and jigawa and Katrina, Katrina is not even suppose to be in the same sentence when we are talking of kwankwasiyya.

Anugoson:
You are right! Those mallam down East always rate Kwankwaso above Atiku. They see Atiku as being corrupt and Kwankwaso as being a saint. It was shocking for me to see how much those core Northerners love the red cap chief. 2023 will be interesting!

Polchiz:
Well, you have lived all your life in South West, that is why you don't know the Kwankwaso movement.
Even El- Rufai has testified. Kwankwaso will sweep the whole North West.
Tinubu only has SW now.

9jii:
Obi can only win south east and that's it
North is big No for him.
As a Northerner I can tell you Tinubu will get good percentage of vote from northern states. Kwara,kogi and Niger are sure for him.u know why.
South West, u don't need me to say anything
s/s Apc,pdp and LB will share their votes

9jii:
That will only reduce the vote for Atiku, a win for Jagaban.

Captain8:
then later lay claim to people territories

AlexBells:
Lol, we have Innoson motors, we have air peace, we have united Nigerian airline, we have UNN, Unizik, Onithasha Market, Aba, PH, Asaba, Enugu, Owerri, Asaba, Abakiliki, Umuahia, Awka, etc. What do you have ?

AlexBells:
What is happening today, where have your envy of the Igbos led you one sham of a state, no international airport, no real market to think that your oil was used to developed Abuja and the rest, Igbos 7 state capitals, several international markets, several international markets, several universities what in the human development index does the Ijaws compare with the Igbos?

Captain8:
I am a delta Ijaw..

Ijaws were divided into two regions just to weaken them.. Ijaws of delta,, Ijaws of edo,,, Ijaws of ondo,, and part of Ijaws from bayelsa were all part of the old western region..they divided Ijaws in halves

Ijaws of eastern region never accept biafranism..

Thoh:
Yorubas are not larger than Igbos they just got more lands.

Hausa is a Language over 250 Northern tribes use as Central Dialect

Igbos are not larger than Ijaws.

Its so annoying when you see Igbos claiming larger than Ijaw.

For where

Una never move round Ijaws that were divided into more than six states when all Ijaws are fully together.

Captain8:
we have rich lands,,so we don't have to travelled away to look for what to eat like igbous doing...

You know all igbo lands are cursed with red molds and erosion coupled with deaths and joblessness, so they must run away from it to survive..

That's why you people are all over the world

LaconicINC:
damn that's serious
