Kwankwaso should get ready to lose again because he just made a very big mistake.
Beyond the north, he's an unknown entity.
& he would most definitely share northern votes with Atiku.
If not for Peter Obi, i wouldn't even have known that the name Kwankwaso exists.
There's no way he can win the presidential election with only northern votes.
His best option would have been to collaborate with Obi.
But unfortunately northerners are always greedy, & they feel ruling Nigeria is forever their birthright.
All these local political analyst. Kwankwaso has been a household name in Nigeria. In the north dude enjoys Cult followership. More popular than Obi by a million stretch. When Kwankwaso left the APC, a senator, about 2house of reps members and plenty state assembly members, state commissioners and millions of others decamped with him. This is to tell you how deeprooted he is. The question now is, when Obi left the PDP for labour party, who and who decamped with him?.
Sad as it may seem, it is obi that needs Kwankwaso more than Kwankwaso needs an Obi.

I think the law should be amended in a way that they must provide a running mate before official campaigns start.

This is more reasonable.

As long as there is a provision for voluntary withdrawal form of candidates, then this placeholder option can still be explored.

This is not right on many grounds.

1. It is not compulsory for someone to join forces with you.

2. Kwankwaso sees himself as a regional powerhouse and he can never deputise for Obi. Instead, he will nominate a Vice to Obi and come back after 8 years.

3. Don't because you are campaigning for Obi, you insult the largest voting bloc in an election year.

You're right in your words to him, except for the "largest voting bloc in an election year."
Do you mean kwankwaso has that?

Peter Obi supporters line of thought can never help him to become president.
You want yo win people over by threatening them.
I just laugh at their method.
The vota Kwankwaso will get in Kano alone will neutralise votes Peter Obi will get in 3 to 4 eastern state that is his base.
They should remember PDP will still share part of the bote from the east. APC convention is not too far for them to know how people voted.

I hope they learn.

Earlier, it was reported that Festus Okoye said that the placeholders can write INEC to withdraw from their position of space holders. But now, Okoye is reported as having said that there is no provision for withdrawal of space holders after the expiration of the date for submission of names of VP candidates. Where is the truth in these conflicting reports?
Anyhow, to make the 2023 presidential election not become an affair for only Atiku Abubakar, INEC needs to make a waiver to accommodate the two other political parties that submitted space holders as VP candidates.

How would you have heard of Kwankwaso when your village is down a very steep valley?

You obviously are a grossly ignorant fellow.

Can Obi win the presidency with only votes from the Southsouth and Southeast?

Who is Obi compared to Kwankwaso, who had headed the Defence Ministry in Nigeria? Kwankwaso was in the Senate also.

Or do you prefer to compare their educational backgrounds? Kwankwaso is an engineer. What is Obi's background?

Should we put their accomplishments as governors side by side? Is Anambra any match to Kano, especially when you look at IGR and several other indices?

Anambra is Nigeria's second smallest state by landmass. What were Obi's impacts in Anambra, despite its small size? Could he organize common LGA elections in Anambra? Can he give account of LGA funds for the 8 years he was governor?

You want to know the weights of the two men? Tell me which members of the Anambra State House of Assembly has defected to the Labour Party on account of Peter Obi?

At least, 17 members of the Kano State House of Assembly, including the Deputy Speaker, have defected to the NNPP because of Kwankwaso.

As Kwankwanso is getting ready to lose again, so is Peter Obi because just as Kwankwanso can only get substantial votes in the north, so can Obi only get substantial vote in the south. They both need each other, unfortunately, their ego and greed will not allow them to merge together.

I would forgive you if you say you don't know much about him, mind you most Northerners didn't know Peter Obi Prior to 2019 general elections, Peter needs him more because he can decides to endorse to ATIKU TOMORROW YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS.

I'm very sure, you're experiencing your first political involvement for you to alter that statement "you don't know Kwankwaso". Who's Peter Obi? Or is it because he defected to LP and manipulating you gullibles with sweet words.
He should be the one to partner with Kwankwaso. Peter Obi is not even serious, every candidate is here making ways themselves with party support. Where's he? In Egypt, doing what? He wants to understudy Egyptian bla BLA BLA. If he really wants to study Egypt why didn't he go there 4,3,2 or even last year, why now? It's all manipulation.
Trust all these politicians at your own peril.

Abeg make una Forgive the guy cos I believe he has learnt a lesson or two now.. I am rooting for Obi but the moment he said that, I kind of felt embarrassed becos I know politically Obi and Kwankwaso aren't mates. Kwankwaso was governor before I left Kano and the transformation Kano state has today started with him as the guy is a rugged infrastructural innovator and one of the best governors I have ever witnessed.. So forgive the guy abeg

I can't agree with you any less
I see where a Kwnakwasiya would rather nominate a VP for PO instead of going himself.
He would then provide all the support Peter Obi needs in Northwest, galvanizing support and votes for Peter Obi. And after 8 good years of solid developments and revitalization of Nigeria, he can come up and would be voted into office as President too.

But...he may just consider stepping down as Obi's VP considering the movement making the rounds among the youths for Peter Obi's Presidency.
