Can we allow the Igbos produce the next president at least for the sake of equity and fairness?

Tinubu and Osibanjo should rescind their decision and support a president from the Igbo extarction.

You know one thing I like about the Northerners? They know they have done their 8years and so it is the South and from the SE. But guess what, they will never push it. They will rather allow SE, SS and SW to slug it out by doing so these 3 region will be fighting themselves without knowing it and then dissafection within the South will deepen. That is the Northern political calculation.

To prove them wrong is for SW and SS who have done 8 and 6 years respectively to come together and support someone from SE so power can go back North and then come back South and by then the SE and SS will support the SW because it will now be their turn.

But of course, even though the SW understand this Northern game, greed and hatred for Igbo will not allow them. They will rather dabaru the whole thing believeing they have the vote of the North.

But this their double standard and way of
impunity against the Igbos will fail them soon and by then it will be too late.

You are senseless... Na fufu full your brain.. You slave for PDP for over 16 years and you Eleribu refused to blame them for your woes, Na Yoruba you dey insult.. Kadafun o.

I thought this one was campaigning for Igbo Presidency

Read.
The man said other than Igbo, I will vote Osibanjo. That's to say; if no Igbo is on The ballot, he goes with Osibanjo

MikoB:

Can you all see what I have been saying all this while! people love this guy call osinbajo, even the people supporting his opponents, have no problem with him, he is calm and intelligent.

Anybody that will vote the ex Lagos governor over the current vice president needs to seriously have his head examined.

zionstaar75:
who are you please? nobody!!!

Lolz

So why are you insulting the old man if you already know Tinubu or Osibanjo are thesame. Must everyone support Tinubu aspiration. Are we no longer practicing democracy. Please respect the choice of the old man

NGpatriot:
Ode agbaya, your years of fruitless political adventures, jumping behind one babariga to the next brown envelope did not benefit your people even with all the NDDC tons of billions, derivations, massive allocations....

It's even funny when some clueless people say they prefer Osinbajo as if it really matter to us. Osinbajo or Tinubu, we don't even care, both men equals the same progressive qualities and ideologies, the same progress and development, the same vision, the same competence and dedication.


Tinubu is Osinbajo and Osinbajo is Tinubu, we don't care, we are ok with Tinubu or Osinbajo.

I thought this same man gave his support to Igbo. Just talking anyhow

Baba Clerk too needs to go and sleep. How many times has Osinbajo criticizes this Fulanis militarization?

MikoB:

Can you all see what I have been saying all this while! people love this guy call osinbajo, even the people supporting his opponents, have no problem with him, he is calm and intelligent.

He's also a failure like his boss Buhari.

LegendHero:


Bro the determinant of Tinubu’s fate will be PDP presidential candidate.

If PDP mistakenly fields Atiku on that ticket, I can assure you that you only have two option.

—Vote Tinubu OR abstain from voting.

Also, if Osinbajo gets the ticket and Tinubu fail to work with him, Osinbajo will be roundly defeated by Atiku. The reason is because to win elections you need political structure and people on ground. Osinbajo has non of those and his only structure is the one Tinubu give to him.

Political success is not only about “I love this candidate and will vote him”, you need both financial power and solid political structure backing you.

—The generals backed OBJ in 1999
—2003 OBJ himself is a deity and he played on Atiku to own all the structures
—2007 Yar’adua used Obasanjo structure
—2011 Jonathan used incumbency and OBJ structure
—2015 Buhari used his own structure and that of Tinubu
—2023 won’t be different. If you don’t have people strong on their own like Buhari, then you need solid political base and alliance to win the presidency

Apt!

Is this man aware that osibanjo has not declared for presidency? Make hate no go make person dey cap verticall oh

LegendHero:


I understand you. Most people do not have problem with Osinbajo because Asiwaju has consistently taken the blame for Osinbajo and has acted as shield for him.

—Asiwaju made lot of political enemies in life in his quest for building a formidable political structure that can get the SW bloc to the center. Osinbajo was a political nobody before Asiwaju brought him forward as number 2. Osinbajo is a beneficiary of this while Asiwaju continue to amass political enemies.

—The bullion van issue that people blame Asiwaju for is also because he is the machinery responsible for delivering Buhari/Osinbajo in the West. All he did was for Buhari/Osinbajo to remain in power but you will never see anyone blame Osinbajo for the van and yet he’s one of the beneficiaries.

—If Fulani herdmen strike any state in the SW, people out rightly blame Tinubu and reprimand him for not speaking up. We have Osinbajo a number 2 citizen that have ears in the security architecture not taking any blame. No one blames him because Asiwaju is like his savior that continues to be crucified for his sins.

—The economy is bad currently and you see people blaming Tinubu for bringing Buhari but they never blame Osinbajo who is the number 2 man at the helm of affairs and even supervise those economic council. We all say it was because Buhari did not give him power to operate but we blame Tinubu a man that dosent even have the power Osinbajo had for the same.

All what I’m saying is that Asiwaju has always taken all the bullet for Osinbajo and that is why Osinbajo has less enemies and Asiwaju enemies are in their multitude.

Lastly, I will prefer Asiwaju to give us Fashola or Osinbajo for 2023 presidency but if he insists he wants to contest, I think him and Osinbajo should go head to head at the primaries, anyone that wins will earn our support for the actual election.

Nigerians will choose the next president, not Asiwaju. Also, SW presidency means the president will come from the SW, not that the SW will choose a president for us

Tumbulum:
If you want a president that will litter the whole aso rock with pee and poo then vote for the drug baroon.

I'm laughing!

Hisbah21:
clerk i will vote neither of them

Why now?

othermen:
Integrity is been straightforward and having the courage of your convictions, doing what you believe is right and not fearing to speak out.

It is sad that Osinbajo has traded his integrity for loyalty to Buhari, not for Nigerians.

There are better people to vote for, than these lots.

So Osinbajo should be attacking and speaking against his boss. That would not be wise. The only time they allowed him to act, he showed the world the stuff he is made of. He was sidelined after that. If not that he applied wisdom and patience, things could have gone worse for him.

Yes o

Osibanjo needs Tinubu's blessings to run and win presidency. Obi needs Atiku's blessings to run and win presidency.

PDP thinks we are all stupid. They want APC to go with Osinbajo so they can easily win the election. Osinbajo that couldnt win in his own ward.

Tell yourself the truth oga, even in the SW, Tinubu has as much foes as he has allies and that is his strongholds. Buhari still remains an Oracle in the north despite his poor outing. Anybody Buhari backs automatically has his political structures. Osibanjo has loyalist in the SW who are just laying low for now, you should know this.
One other thing, Atiku has no political structures. He only has money to throw around. He literally bought PDP ticket in the last elections and he had his best outing in that elections... because people rather voted against Buhari! If you have a credible candidate, nobody will look Atikus direction. You people in the south over rate Atiku.

I will Vote Osinbajo if APC carry him

2023 Tinubu for Emperor of Lagos

Anyway you have right for your opinion, but as for me this government has not failed, Rome was not built in a day, in the history of this country no govt has spent how much buhari and osinbajo has spent both in helping in the economy and also infrastructure, the kilometers of road constructed in this admistration are more than what has been constructed by all other past admistration put together, this is a fact, you can check it out yourself, for the first time in the history of the country we are competing with Egypt on the number is armories at our disposal, this is not April fool, buhari's govt has spent over 4billion dollars in purchasing weapons, these are the same weapons Good luck Jonathan claimed he wanted but embezzled by the pdp govt through dansuki, I'm not saying this govt is perfect, but they have tried, do you know it is osinbajo initiative for, n power, school feeding, loans to the small business owners to mention few, the only problem with buhari is that, he is not an orator, he does not communicate, so people don't know his achievement,but one thing is sure, it will only get better for our country.

The game of politics

The game of politics. They want a weaker opponent. They prefer not to meet Tinubu a dreadful opponent on the field of politics. Politics is like football, Teams prefer weak opponents and they like to penetrate a strong opponent through leaking wing or bad wing.

PDP cannot make a choice until APC has chosen a Presidential candidate.

As I have been saying for several years , Yorubas are very strong. The internal opposition in South West is too strong and Yorubas are the number one enemy of the Yorubas. Other tribes rely on the internal crisis and opposition in South West to weaken the Yorubas. Without that, nobody can withstand the Yorubas.

Abiola was denied his victory which led to his death by combined forces of different group. The Chairman of Arise TV and Thisday Newspaper was one of the persons that felt threatened by MKO's personality thereby leading campaign for the annulment of June 12 election over the cloth Abiola wore to the polling booth for 10 minutes to vote.

Today, Abiola empire has crumbled while his own empire is thriving and Abiola daughter has to use his Platform - Arise TV to express her view - Chief MKO Abiola should be weeping in his grave.

While Abiola empire has crumbled and Thisday empire including Arise TV is thriving, EndSars protesters decided to burn Tinubu's media houses and other investments and some Lagos State government properties using the news disseminated by Arise TV as anchor for the attacks. Yorubas must think.

Yorubas - Tinubu and Osinbajo don't need Pa Edwin Clarke vote or advice on the most suitable candidate. The Yorubas must think.

All politicians are thieves but not all thieves are politicians

MikoB:

You argue like a child, I don't have time for argument, I have told you either you like it or not, a South westerner will pick apc ticket, if its not so, you can then quote me after! and I will respect you thereafter the primaries, I am a busy person, and also I like people that see a coin as a two side object, Amaechi ko Amaechi ni! you better go and sit down with your Amaechi stuff, is only a kid that will think a party will be ready to loose a 5 sitting governor to the opposition because of someone that has no electoral value, forget about that stuff that buhari will give him the 12mlion votes in the North, buhari doesn't care, that explains why he raised the the hands of an opposition party candidate in the last election.

You have shown previously an inability to reason objectively because of your emotional investment in the Osinbajo project. So I dont blame you, your heart is tallking. For the record, I didnt say for sure it will be Amaechi, What I said is it makes a lot of sense and a very distinct possibility. Time will tell.

All I will say for now is you overestimate the role and electoral value of the SW block in APC, just like the Ibos overestimate their electoral importance in PDP. For both, there is nowhere else to go, you are not that important if you have nowhere elese to go or vote....dont get it twisted!!!! If it is determined that Amaechi should be the flag bearer, there is nothing anybody the SW can or will do. Are the governors going to decamp to PDP? are you going to vote for PDP? There is the answer to your so called 5 important governors!!!!

I repeat for the record Tinubu is the factor that makes SW the frontrunners for the ticket because of his stature. Tinubu is the Kingmaker not the Sw, he is the one held in high regard by the North not the SW or SW governors. If he is eliminated or drops out, it becomes a free for all in which case there is no guarantee it comes to the SW. Make all the noise you want, if such a scenario develops you will still line up and vote APC because you have nowhere else to go!!!! fact!!! you only have power when you have alternatives, you only threaten when you have options!!!!

without internal crisis no one can stand the Yoruba? lol,why lying to yourself? is the numbers in South West enough for Presidency? actually as it stands,the presidency is for northern Nigerian to loose

tyav7:
Pipu should take it with Tinubu na, haha! How old was Trump when he ruled? Wetin be Biden age sef?

yes they are old, but if Biden fall sick where will dey treat him but talk about tinubu where will dey treat him also,which is going to be abroad with heavy text payer money that will be millions naira even billion. Will never finish with buhari na tinubu. Before I used to be saying tinubu is free to contest but that is words that he said he will continue where buhari stop. Omo buhari stop

Carlyboi:
The only potential presidential candidate I’m interested in is fashola...Osinbajo or Amaechi won’t be bad alternatives tho...

I don’t have much against Tinubu he’s a resourceful person and has put in a lot of work to be where he’s today in Nigerian political affairs and space..like him or not he is a politician with loads of influence and power despite his failings and inadequacies....but I won’t want him for presidency simply cos he seems physically incapable...he’s not in a good health,not necessarily too old but he’s old won’t want a 70 something year old succeeding Buhari,a likely senile Buhari who’s govt is been run by others I want an active,vibrant,smart and energetic youthful president he has too many baggage and his fixation on the presidency seat reeks of desperation...he has made enough money gained enough power and influence he should stick to his kingmaker/godfather role and take care of his health.


Also don’t wanna hear any of that Atiku nonsense that one is mostly interested In pilfering and looting more of our national resources and share the bounty with his cronies!plus dude his damn old with failing health those old crone should Fvck outta here and go have a seat.

Tinubu is a dogged fighter who might be fighting for osibanjo , my brother you 're very realistic in your analysis just that you failed to add that he might have declared early to thwart the chances of the over ambitious politicians like fayemi, amosun in other to protect osibanjo interest which not a bad strategy. for me I will give my support to osibanjo if Tinubu is not running because he is an a great achiever. But will be glad if the two parties should consider our region south east.

You are very wrong. I observed you don't know much about Nigeria. Firstly before I copy and paste my last submission, I will ask you a question , where is Buhari political structures in 2003, 2007 & 2011? In the North, Political power is a Party on his own. It has nothing to do with APC or PDP. Personality is well respected in the North just like in the US. If IBB had openly canvassed for votes for Tofa, I can bet it anywhere, Tofa cannot win MKO in the North. Shehu Yaradua would have been the most suitable opponent to MKO though they were in the same party and his victory at the primary was annulled by IBB. That was the beginning of IBB's dilemma.

Kwankwaso, Tambuwal and others in the North are just waiting for APC, I think Ganduje , Masari and others are also monitoring events. Nobody can inherit any Buhari structures without personality. Jonathan didn't inherit any structures. OBJ singlehandedly begged the Northern power brokers and Traditional rulers to allow Jonathan to rule after Yaradua' s death. I am not sure that can work for Buhari / Osinbajo

Personally i think you’re right Tinubu might be testing the waters and trying to draw attention to himself as regards the presidency and he might have a few tricks up his sleeves that he might reveal later...don’t think he should run it would be better for him to support osinbajo.

Tbh man i honestly don’t care bout thosw politicians I just take a liking to fashola...and as regards south east candidacy and presidency I think your people rocked the boat quite much especially with Kanu Ipob antics and aggression and violence and sort of alienated other tribes and also by constantly championing the campaign of dissolution of the country they didn’t do your potential candidates a lot of good as there’s a level of distrust mostly from the northerners they’re wary of handling power to the Igbos which might be the end of the one Nigerian project and which is a great danger to the northerners especially their politicians and elites!


I’m not a big fan of most of your politicians but I know you’ve got smart and competent ones but I don’t know if the PDP would hand them their ticket and as far as APC is concerned Amaechi would be your best bet and the closest thing to an Igbo presidency.Personally fashola presidency is what is the only thing I’d celebrate I don’t have any issues with an Igbo becoming president I won’t just be that invested in the process but I’d wish your candidates well...same with any other Yoruba contesting I’m not into tribalistic bullshit and ethnic bigotry I’m open minded and see a human and individual before seeing color,race,creed or ethnicity.
