Atiku and PDP would have stand a chance if they made a better choice by picking a more popular VP candidate, with this combo they will lose woefully next year.


Congratulations to APC in advance
Please how popular was osinbajo when he was picked by buhari in 2015??

Peter obi as a former Governor of Anambra has more credible political records and achievements than osinbajo ever had in his entire political career.

Atiku-obi all the way

Not all Yorubas but majority think that way.

I don't believe it at all,yes there are tribalists but there are many that don't behave that way then how did they vote gej/sambo in 2011.right now everyone want good governance if you mess up you get booted out.

you Yoruba's on this platform are so evil, wicked and tribalistic!
The current VP who is a Yoruba, what has he done for the nation?
you still want it all to be rotated round you! give chances for other people, you are not the only ones in the country!

If u are Yoruba, u ought to know how Yoruba people vote during national election.

Yorubas and Fulanis are the most tribalistic tribes in Nigeria, followed by Igbo and Hausa then Berom, Ijaw, etc.

Yorubas consider voting for their tribal man or woman first before they consider competence. Same applies to Fulani.

But Igbos vote personality not even party.

Once Igbos perceive u as a man who loves all, respects all, supports business and industrialization and not a religious extremist, then Igbos will vote for u regardless of your party or popularity.

If APC present Osinbajo as Presidential candidate, Igbos will become divided on who to vote between Osinbajo and Atiku.

But with Buhari as APC presidential flag bearer, Igbos will vote even Sowore than vote for Buhari who happens to be a religious extremist and tribalist.

But majority of Yorubas are ready to vote for devil so long as that devil picks a Yoruba as VP and ready to openly marginalize Igboa while favouring Yorubas

That is how Yoruba people vote in national election.

Individually Yorubas are cool but collectively in national politics, they are very horrible to deal with
besides pdp has no governor in the south west but have 3 governors in the south east.

going east for vp was a political blunder.

You have spoken well and i wish I can give you one million likes. However we look at it politics is all about self interest and the social values we get from it but I ultimately believe we should be reasonable and considerate with our interests.

He truthfully made the right choice by picking his VP from the east. Now the question is if Buhari wins I hope there wont be wailing come 2023 if the presidential candidate comes from the south west as the west has contributed to the APC in the south as well.

Again nobody seems to talk about referendum anymore and the Biafra agitation has been minimized. I trust it will continue like this after 2019 and 2023.

All I am saying is whoever loses should restrategize and not wail to dusturb our peace. Everybody seems happy now that power is coming to their backyard in case it does not happen they should be happy for the winner as well.
Folks like u keep mixing things up for some reasons.Igbo business and political class never supported Kalu nor distingeration of the country. Most Igbos didnt support Kalu until police and military started attacking them.

congrats to Peter obi as VP. is not easy to be nominated as VP of a second popular party but what does his political CV carried?

does he have political friends out of East? what is his political extension like? how many people know peter obi in North? even okorocha, OUK is popular than him. I shouldn't even mention southwest as we won't trade our son for hateful Igbo


Atiku with Obi an intending failure that will silent Atiku political carrier forever. thanks to their adviser

Why are the orubas this sadistic?

You people hated PDP, why demand VP from PDP?

WHAT IS PETER OBI VIEWS ABOUT RESTRUCTURING?

I have not heard him talk about the subject RESTRUCTURING OF OUR FEDERAL SYSTEM?

He talks mainly about good money management, growth of the economy, how he managed Anambra state economy and save a lot of money for his successor governor Willie Obiano.

South West should go for Senate President, which in many ways is as powerful if not more powerful than a VP. I don't know of Obi's personality, but a VP can be powerful or not dependent on their personality.

This is how Nigerians will vote

NW - Buhari
NE - Atiku
NC - Atiku (too many Fulani killings that NC can never vote Buhari)
SE - Atiku (if Obi is indeed VP)
SS - Atiku (time to take vengeance on the loss by GEJ)
SW - 50% Buhari and 50% Atiku (especially if SW get the Senate presidency)

All Igbos in NW, NE, NC, SW, and SS - Atiku

Come 2019, Atiku is the next president



Hehehehehehhehe

If this news of picking Peter Obi as VP is true, then am nolonger seeking for USA visa. I will remain here and sure of making it here in Nigeria

It means Atiku really want to fix this country.
We Nigerian forget things fast.

Anambra was once most difficult state to govern.
It's the only state that had a seating governor kidnapped (Chris Nigigi)

Peter Obi came in and transformed that state.
Currently anambra is least most indebted state in Nigeria

View below.

I hope Atiku will not just use him to win Election but allow him to impact his economical sense.

Peter Obi is truly the best option not theyoritical Ngozi

Peter Obi was impeached 2 times and he won in court.
Reason for attended impeachment was because he refused to dash state money to looters
no matter which side the pendulum swings in 2019, by 2023 we will still be in deep shit. With the caliber of politicians in the corridors of power, Nigeria is irredeemable.
Re: Nigerians React As Atiku Picks Peter Obi As Running Mate by Nobody: 5:21pm On Oct 12, 2018
It's to give the igbo tribe a sense of belonging. Since after the civil war, igbos have not really been part of Nigeria. It will also neutralise the 5% comment from Buhari.
If this duo wins, that's making history in the Nigeria political scene and will be applauded world over.

I wonder why the Yoruba people are angry. Obasanjo did 8 yrs, they have osibanjo. Are they the only tribe in Nigeria?
An Hausa man is yet to be president or vice.

They should have that at the back of their mind. Fulani is a different tribe from Hausa.
There are other ethnic groups being marginalised too. One Nigeria isn't when it favours only one side.

They have been laughing at igbo since and now, igbo has the vp slot as them yet, they are very jealous.
I have never seen a tribe so greedy like this people.

I know Atiku will surely fail:

1. The northerners will never vote for him with south east running mate.

2. The south west will also not vote for him for denied them of their rightful VP slot.

3. The blocked votes he will get from south east can't give the needed votes to win.

What a failure.

How old are you? Only the intelligentsia understand Igbos. You'll see the massive vote Atiku will get both within SE and that your region where they also own factories. Stop your hate and let's repair Nigeria. I'm sure you need a job, and ATIKU/PETER OBI are entrepreneurs with functional businesses here and there.

when will ibos and Igbos grow up ?
Honestly, I like Peter Obi, I've listen to him on few occasions, the man is intelligent; he will make a very good VP
But my problem is with d ibos and Igbos; their insincerity & hypocritical tendencies has No part 2.
The same tribe,that was busy castigating the Yorubas, saying that, the yorubas has been shortchanged; how can they settle for VP post ? VP is just a mere commissioner; he has No say. Ibos can Never take that, because VP will be a Stooge for Mr President. It is Biafra or Nothing.
And today, God of mercy; Ibos are going back to their vomit.
This should be a lesson for you, never bring a person or a position to a state of disrepute; u never know what will happen tomorrow.
Peter Obi is my guy.
Do celebrate, while it last.
