eldoradoxx:
SS and SE have always united politically even from independence as people from old Eastern region. The problem is the West refused to see a common path with the rest of the South and that's what the North exploit. Don't be surprised if Ahmed Lawan emerges APC presidential candidate to confront Atiku who is also from North East

This is not true. The old western and eastern region is different from what we currently have.

In 1993, all the states that currently form the SS voted for Abiola while the East voted against him as usual.

Smartlife:
It's a shame on wike...... He was busy fighting Peter obi while the north were strategically putting in place their own kind. Peter was his only problem after all.

Wike is stupid and uncultured. He created so many enemies for himself in the South and up North. I don’t even know how he will survive the coming battles with Obigbo people that he killed their children, APC, Amaechi, GEJ, Almajiris, the Caliphate, EFCC, IPOB, ESN, UGM, DSS, Herdsmen, Bokoharam, and Islamic State once he loses immunity after leaving office in few months. He lacked basic commonsense and that will finish him.

No sympathy for him.

CutieKing:

Igbo voted for pdp not obj.
Same way they voted for gej and atiku.
So they did Yoruba no favour.

if you are vast and no the political arrangements of 1998/99 you will understand were am pointing at.

Division is what will forever cost the South any chance at the presidency.

... These northern folks no longer play their games in the dark, it's now broadday light.
The outsmartness, the audacity is highly laudable to say the least.

All of a sudden, tables have turned and we've become 2nd citizens in our own country. All thanks to our thieving, disunited southern politicians

I'll give the major blame to the igbos and the yoribas. These two will never allow the South progress politically.
One is selfish, other is an asslickeer ( a Judas)

I'm Yoruba and you're very spot on.
The two major tribes in the South have historically been the problem if the South politically and still are.
Southern governors forum o
Amotekun o
Ipob o
Na just waste of time
But I blame no one but tinubu and his online urchins who keep overblowing his political influence and relevance. If he had any understanding of the northern hawks, tinubu should have shelved his ambition and backed the presidency being zoned to South East or South South at least. That greed he exhibited is what is killing the South as a political entity

Aliou007:
True point bro. But wait, who do you think will be Atiku’s running mate? A northerner? No way, it’ll be a southerner. So while he secures votes from the north, he’ll also divide votes from the south using his running mate. And check mate bro. Nigeria politics for you!

A strong and liked southern candidate from APC can still WIN. IF such person picks a popular Northern as VP and makes a deal with disgruntled PDP governors in the east then APC stands a chance. Additionaly, if bubu is willing to campaign for the APC, his influence and popularity with die hard northerners can dilute Atiku's northern votes.

If I were Okowa, Wike and Udom, what with PDP slapping the east in the face, I would covertly support a southern candidate from APC. The North should be taught that treachery doesn't pay. If the north win the 2023 election again, we will be permanent slaves to them.

NO ohhhh.... He wants to show Nigeria how it's done.
The humiliation he will receive in days to come may even affect Lagos governorship elections.

NinjaXmetahuman:
your post made absolutely no sense.


You are trying to blame Yorubas for what exactly?

Igbos have voted pdp for the last 22 years. Now that is the time for pdp to support igbo, they discarded them for northerners again like used tissue.

But somehow, you are saying it's Yorubas fault.. shey na Yoruba dey control pdp?

if the south which have majority of Igbo and Yoruba as the two major group have insisted that it's the turn of the south east do you think the north will push like there are doing now? The north came with force because of the division sighted in the south,if you are observant the northern candidates did not rush to decler there interest until there observed the body language of the south.

Oh yeah,
Politics 101 on course.........
Leave us with our Zulum, support your candidates and leave us with ours.
Zulum for Vice President. Politics 101 still on course....

firstly, Zulum no dey do vp secondly, to face Atiku no be doxtoral thesis, u must get money and strong pilitical structure. Those 2 academicians no get any of d 2 sa.

StrongAlphMale:


At the bolded, of course it's either they field in a northerner or they'll field in GEJ. They need someone who's extremely strong enough to challenge atiku and it's definitely not Tinubu. Seunmsg needs to understand that the the S/West are the problem here and not we the south south nor south east. The Yorubas forbids to team up with a southerner or an Eastern except the candidate is from S/West. This is where the problem starts. The west needs to let go of their hatred for other regions so we can team up and defeat the northerners. Else the northerners will keep ruling this country unopposed.

Sometimes you guys reason like an agbero,uneducated bunch.
How can sw who is rooted in apc support se/ss who are rooted in pdp?.
You guys should stop this nonsense and use una brain for once.

The south can't come together as one just look at the North, what if Pius anyim,udom Emmanuel had stepped down for wike.

Which south?

Did SW come together when Jonathan run for second term?


If i ever want to vote i won't mind voting for Atiku than voting any SW candidate as a person from SS

CutieKing:

Igbo voted for pdp not obj.
Same way they voted for gej and atiku.
So they did Yoruba no favour.

yes igbos voted for PDP and who was the flag bearer? Stop sentiments that is what we are been punish for by our political class.
And who did the yorubas voted for in 2015? Again a southerner? The yorubas have a huge blame to take home for this political mess the south is passing through.

CutieKing:

Good point! There really was little basis for the west to support the east cos they are fundamentally different parties. Only Makinde in SW is a pdp governor. And only Ayade and Imahi in the SE and SS are APC abs those are the 2 smallest states of them all.

How did yoruba cause atiku to lead in PDP

Did you see tambuwal stepping down for atiku?
What stops saraki from stepping down for wike?
No they both want to fight it out and loose together, so long neither of them wins it.
Isn't that stupidity?

Okay, just vote your party then. And since your party has snookered the east, please don't blame anyone then!!

Blame the Igbos for supporting Obasanjo a Yuroba man to be president or for supporting Goodluck Jonathan an Ijaw man to be the president? What is their offence?

Hence the judas I tagged them but that doesn't mean the igbos are saints.

Take it or leave it the Yorubas are the smartest of all they knew how to plays their card. In 2015 election, they didn't put their eggs in one basket. If to say Jonathan wins at that time they can easily claims they plays a vital role in his victory because they gave him 40% of their votes. You the Easterners sees it as a war while it is not, it is a game in which the smartest always win. Everyone knew it was supposed to be your turn but what have you done to earn it? They brings Amaechi to the table to see if you will accept him as one of you, but you says no all you want is an Igbo President.

tonididdy:

..

Igbos didn't support Obasanjo. If anything it was the north that supported obasanjo by saying they would not field any candidate in 1999 in the aftermath of the Abiola issue hen e why it was between Obasanjo and Falae. Igbo didn't have mouth in the matter politically. Igbo is even a bit more relevant now than in 1999.

COMPAQ:


Okay, just vote your party then. And since your party has snookered the east, please don't blame anyone then!!

I don't have a party but if Apc brings any candidate from SS or SE i will vote them but if it is SW i will rather vote Atiku.


No be first do they pain most.

[/s]how old are you?
How is that going to happen exactly? How did you read the body language of the whole south on nairaland.

-Afenifere said it's time for igbo
-Masob said it's time for igbo
-Big political names from south west like Obasanjo and south south said its time for igbos.
Pdp that could make this igbos dream a reality literally just told igbos to go Bleep themselves. but somehow, Yorubas with little stake in pdp is the reason?

What kind of obsession is this for Bleep sake?

tonididdy:

Hence the judas I tagged them but that doesn't mean the igbos are saints.

You Igbos that have been supporting the North since the 1960s are not Judas??

Which kind rubbish stories are your useless parents telling you self?

Alexis11:


You are Emeka from Abakaliki stop claiming SS. Only Igbos think everybody hate them.

You see what am saying? Once you bring up a great suggestion that would move the country forward, yorubas will be quick to throw jabs and tribal disunity on you.

How can me, a full blooded Edo niggar be exchanging words with you? Everyone has seen the hatred between u Yorubas and the igbos, esp here on nairaland. Or is it because I refused to support your god Tinubu that u labeled me an igbo? Honestly, I now believe you Yorubas are the problem and not the igbos. Instead of teaming up with the igbos, and the south south, you yorubas are there hating on whoever doesn't support your S/West Tinubu candidate

COMPAQ:


Saraki is politically North, not South. I hope you know Kwara identifies as north.

The primary ethnic group of kwarans is Yoruba.
Saraki parents are Yoruba.
Wife is Yoruba.
So sad you don't know your brothers just because they share boundaries with the North.
Saraki should have as well stepped down for wike. Period.
