Obi don mess up with that decision to leave PDP. Unless he has money to spend and win their favor back like Atiku or political goodwill like Saraki or grassroot like Kwankwanso

That is likely the end of his ambition to become President or VP

No one will trust someone who dumps parties easily like he did to APGA and PDP

Itsrm:


If APC can accept someone like FFK and even rolled out the carpet for him to meet Buhari then they can take OBI.

Anyway, we will see how events unfold in the coming days.

donjazet:


This is obviously not true. Before 2013? Was it a 2 party system?? Off my head I know about 6 parties that were strong regionally.
Only PDP was the behemoth. ACN-4 governors APGA 2 governors, labor party 3 governors, oshomole, mimiko of Ondo, CPC 3 governors, nasarawa and some, ANPP 1 governor.


Now today we still have some small regional parties with strong sponsors, senators and reps; APGA, ypp, nnpp, etc. .what's to say we don't emulate France, Brazil or india that also uses presidential system and has multiple strong parties?

Unlimited22:

It's a bit difficult to believe that you live here chief, especially when you talk about insecurity and Wike.


Do you have any parent or family member who's retired from Rivers state Civil service since 2015?

Oasis007:




FFK? Forget him. Buni is no more acting Chairman of APC. FFK that has no value in his home state, hence joins a Ward in Abuja?

If Obi wants to join APC today, he's definitely gonna be welcomed and celebrated. He has made himself a force among online Youths. And he's gonna be handy to win more than 5% in the East.

I think it's going to be smart play on the part of APC if they can field Obi as vice.

izzou:


He can still go back.

All our politicians no get shame

izzou:


As who's vice?

Tinubu
Osibanjo
Amaechi

E mean say dem wan dash Atiku or Wike Also rock naa

raumdeuter:
It we want to talk plenty things and not face the reality on ground, lets continue to deceive ourselves and think twiteratti matters

I think Obi made an irrational decision to leave PDP because that might be the end of his dream to become anything in Nigerian politics

He left APGA, left PDP where will he go next? He doesnt have the money of Tinubu or Atiku to buy himself into a major party

And take note this is a 2 party system. America with over 300yrs democracy has not been able to do anything about this 2 party politics for centuries

Itsrm:


As you know already, I am expecting WIKE to win the PDP ticket.

I'm thinking Obi will offer healthy competition to WIKE when it comes to SE and SS votes.

raumdeuter:


Its not about shame. What does he have to offer the APC that will make them hand presidential ticket to him

Atiku can change party tonight and get the presidential ticket because he has money to give, Same with Tinubu

What does Obi have to give beside English? even donjazet go help am pieces that grammar

Ibime:
Baba should have stuck around for the hope of a ministerial position if PDP wins

izzou:


The SE doesn't look like a place where block numbers would emerge because of Ekpa and his boys

APC would rather campaign heavily in the entire north and SW, then look to heavens for whatever that region brings

donjazet:


Security?? Surely you didn't say that.

Rivers state that has the highest number of cultists in Nigeria? Rivers state where for 2 years, it's citizens put themselves on lockdown from night time because of area boys?

Rivera state that has the highest number of politicians killed by their rivals?

Wike would be worse than anybody because the worst kind of leader you can have is one who has no fear of even his subjects. He will be a tyrant worse than abacha. Just look at how he has converted rivers state Treasury to his personal wallet. The highest payed state in Nigeria.

Wike is a terrible Human being and leader.

raumdeuter:


Tinubu wey dey travel around every Northern state you don see an anywhere for SE? Actually have you seen any candidate for SE? Even na style dem go use avoid the place for proper campaign

donstan18:

Someone here , i think Larride once said delegates choose loyalty and future gains over sharp money.

I think he was right.

donstan18:
European finals?? Leave it for Mourinho.

5 in 5!!

With Porto, Roma, ManU and Inter.

Ibime:


Hahahaha. Obi know say him money no long like that. Delegate settlement no go pass $12k, but dem go collect some $ks from like 5 or 6 candidate plus small change from the small boys like Pius Anyim etc. Delegates plenty to settle.

Atiku and Wike go reach $8k-$12k

Saraki go reach $8k if he has a chance, if not he go drop out at $5k

Everybody else will drop out at $1k to $3k, then the small boys will drop like $500 to mark register. Udom suppose hit $3k before realising his chances are slim.

If Kwankwaso still dey, he would be sure to hit $3k like last time

Delegates go collect like $30k total.

Saraki has a chance cos he's got friends among the main power players in most states and they instruct their delegates how to vote regardless of the egunje on offer. Saraki has no enemies in PDP while Wike has plenty, but the states Wike wins, he will collect all the delegates, while Saraki will collect a portion from every state except Rivers, Katsina and AkwaIbom. Atiku is lazy but has money to buy the whole ticket. Saraki is actually politicking well, collecting small favour from almost every state and big numbers from Kano. Also Saraki is used to working with the whole country as former speaker.

I still favour Atiku slightly but Wike and Saraki have a very good chance. As the night progress sha, the winner will be clear.

Ibime:



Hahahaha.

Dem done reduce delegate numbers?

Na him be say bonanza don set.

Atiku hit $9k last time. If delegate numbers done half, $30k from the big boys is not out the question.

raumdeuter:


Exactly politics is a long game like my elder bros Sir Larride said yesterday. Stick around make yourself relevant in your party and become a big figure in the party. If PDP wants to pick anyone in SW now, them fit consider Fayose because of that factor and that is the card Wike is using to stroke Atiku say he fled when they needed him but money speaks

Also you must be ready to spend heavily. My guy who was running for Rep alone spends almost 3m per week on "this request" that request from people in his constituency, When election reach dem go still ignore am. He told me someone sent him a SMS that he needs financial support to complete the roof of his house, Some need to pay WAEC fees for their kids etc

When one of the Northern governor was saying Tinubu sponsored him in the days of ACN and this is the time to repay him back. ACN days will be around 2011 (11yrs ago)
