The younger generation (particularly educated southerners) see Peter Obi as the only hope for a better Nigeria, hence the huge support he is getting from us, on and off social media. But for PO to win the presidential election, the north has to support and buy into his candidacy. Who are or would be his footsoldiers in the north and SW? Can an average Hausa, Fulani or Yoruba leave Atiku or Tinubu and vote PO? Fanatism and emotional sentiments aside, can PO win any state in the north or SW?

Sincerely speaking, except maybe FCT, I don't see PO wining any state in the north and SW. He might sweep the SE, but to win any state in SS, he has to have Wike on his side. My opinion though, what's yours?

Any can be possible.
Its God's doing.

Like its possible for PO to defeat Shekarau, Kwankwaso and Ganduje in Kano?

must he win Kano ?

1. So are you saying, we in the SS are waiting for Wike's approval before knowing what we want? What kind of insult is this?

2. Stop making North & SW feel special. Goodluck in 2011 didn't win states in SW or even NE and NW before becoming president. Were you born yesterday?

Peter Obi is going no where

nazicartel:
must he win Kano ?

I only used Kano as an example. That said, note that every state has its "Shekarau", "Kwankwaso" and "Ganduje". These are commanders that command numerous footsoldiers who'd canvass, mobilize and sell the APC and PDP candidates.

So Kwankwaso will support Tinubu abi? Good, good, good.

None .

And include the SS as well as a no go area for your OSU last hope.

Only the yeast will vote peter obi.

1. Wike is a "commander" and has a strong and wide reach in the SS.
2. You can't win a presidential election in Nigeria without the strong backing of the north and a substantial support from the SW. GEJ got this in 2011.

Why are you people asking this questions all the time?What exactly is itching your need to know?

You ask questions,answer it with a clear tint of envy and biases,then argue with hate and heartburn.


Zukwanike!

Peter obi will win Anambra except if apga have serious candidate,

for East Anambra will win two to three states

south south only Edo

southwest none, because APC and PDP owned sw
for North na two lion and tiger get am, not Squirrel (LP)

Nne zukwaike. I don't think there is anything cynical or wrong in looking at the chances of wining of someone aspiring to be president. Expect more of this. Nigerians are more politically interested now.

Why are these kids allowed to roam the politics section? This is annoying though. Goodluck Jonathan only lost Osun State in the southwest in 2011.

Uncle stop lying. GEJ conquered Adamawa,Ekiti,Ogun,Ondo and Oyo.

The question has been overflogged.

That its been overflogged is a pointer to the glaring fact that a lot has to be done, particularly in the north.

then let APC or PDP win nah... Or is it their first time of winning or losing ?... Is Obi the only candidate coming out for the election?. The opposition is just like he's the ruling president seeking for re election. It's just too much. Everybody should vote for who's best for them. I'm voting for Obi with my family, let me see the Kwankwaso/shekarau in my polling unit that their foot soldiers will tell me what to do

Which states in the South East and South South can Tinupoo or Atiku win?
If the north can not vote for anyone else apart from their own, they should not rule anyone else apart from themselves..
It's that simple if you ask me..

This is not correct. Good luck Jonathan won all the states in the South West except Osun in 2011. Please let's be guided with factual information.

Peter obi may win in Anambra State but he has a lot of people against him.
if people can reason well or try to no what may be good for them he may also win in Abia State

SlyDev:
Peter Obi is going no where

Yes, neither is Tinubu.

hmmmm make out time to study peter Obi's effect on the minds of the people. The North that you used to know is very different from the North of today. Now the North has enough of or plenty of young educated youths. These are the people that will change the narratives because they now understand that ethnic and religious politics has destroyed Nigeria and has not even flavoured them. This dosent used to be the case and the understanding is clearer right now.
Obi will shock a lot of people with landslide victory especially in the North.

HarunaWest:
Uncle stop lying. GEJ conquered Adamawa,Ekiti,Ogun,Ondo and Oyo.

So only Adamawa, Ondo, and Ogun made Goodluck president abi? Nonsense talk. Oga remove all those states results GEJ would have still won that election. Stop hyping North.

It's only a brainless person that will say Northerners not voting for a certain candidate means automatic fail for that candidate. Tah, what about Buhari that has been failing elections back to back with the entire Northern vote b4 2015. Did you start following politics yesterday?

Tinubu that has been failing elections b4 2015, mumu South West supporters didn't call him political strategist. Because Tinubu manage win election in 2015 he has turned to the smartest politician in Nigeria. Stop hyping trash jor.

You guys should get a life & leave Obi. Non of the candidate is gaining ground & members daily more than Obi. At the of the election when he most hv been sworn in u realize all these negative analysis didn't matter.

Have you looked at the total no. of registered voters in the north compared to the south? Buhari won the last two elections because he won in the north and got substantial votes from the SW.

In the SS, he can only win Edo and Rivers if he gets the support of the governors. For the SE, I see him wining 3 of the five States.

greaT179:

Anambra and Abia will be easily won by PO. He'll struggle in Imo and Ebonyi. For Enugu, I no know o!

Because he won the election doesn't mean only North have the power to decide who rules the country. That's nonsense.

Its a very sad reality. Take it or leave it, the north decides who rules. No one can win a presidential election in Nigeria without aligning with the north. Compare their voting strength with that of the south. In reality, its not like they're more than us, 'just that those figures were inflated in their favour.
