Peter Obi and Kwankwaso are Tinubu's agents.

Those who know, know. The rest will argue.

They are not, Tinubu can only win by rigging and it's no longer an election.

Obi is a career politician.

-Lord
Since he left office, did you hear/read anywhere about him running for any position or taking a godfather position in his state?
He lead for 8 years and leave others to do their thing.
point out one ex governor that has not aspired for either senator or being a godfather in Nigeria.

Omo fear North ooo.

If one candidate ever get bloc vote for the North in future elections, then no candidate from the South will ever defeat a Northerner if they ever get one coalition from one Southern zone.

The numbers I am seeing from their LG is just too much. I now know why Buhari always get that constant 10million vote.
That is exactly what we have been telling you guys.

If the north is United, then they only need one southern Bloc which they did in 2015.

The south west is not special in that regard.

They may decide to use the south south or even the south east in future elections.

And that is because the South is not United due to greed.

Anyway, the north is split in this election.

No region in the South is special.

But I think the SW just play better politics. We have been able to gain more from Northern alliance than the SE.

1979/1983 SE/North alliance did not provide an Igbo presidency.
Tinubu/Buhari alliance might provide a Yoruba presidency.

The North just use SE in their alliance and dump them, but the West usually benefit from te alliance afterward. Even MKO was able to at least win in the North.

Have you heard of "fake it till you make it " ? That's what Tinubu has been doing since 2003 , El-rufai too , & for the north , try not to feature them & see what happens to your career politically .
Am a yoruba ,but I'd rather amputate my hands than vote Tinubu or anything associated with APC ..

It's Obi's turn to take his fate in his own hands on this he has our full support and that of well meaning Nigerians.

I'm an Atiku man but walahi he really underestimated Obi and I'm scares this might come back to hunt him...I always knew Obi will be a thorn in flesh for PDP in traditional PDP strongholds, but he's bow taking large chunks of PDP votes in the North! That I didn't see coming.

Waziri should have reached out to Obi, I hope he won't have regrets about that. But we stay strong and focused! We will secure Kaduna soon as well!
No hope
Atiku and Obi have lost this

APC leads is insurmountable
Re: Atiku Underestimated Obi... by SaiOba: 9:31pm On Feb 26, 2023
Baba, even APC underestimated HE Peter Obi.. Peter Obi cleared LasGiDi . OBI has made so many non APC politicians Senators and Rep members in LasGiDi and Outside..

We swept LasGiDi clean and clear before the Landlord could wake up from slumber..

They only sent in the thugs VERY late.. we have our results and NO amount of manipulation and the Lagosians have SPOKEN..

Let's Dela with LasGiDi 1st before we head on to PH.. We are the OBIdient.

1979/1983 SE/North did not provide an Igbo president is because of the Buhari led Military coup that overthrow the Democratically elected government of shagari in 1984. It has nothing to do with use and dump. The military interfare and remove the government unconstitutionally through the barrel of gun.

Without that coup, Ekwueme would have succeeded Shagari as the president in 1987.

Without the coup, Awolowo would have won massively in the 87 coz he would have learnt from his mistakes.

You don't get it, it seems the North do not trust the SE enough to vote for them. They tend to trust other tribes in the SS and SW more and I don't know the reason for that.

See Kano result, Tinubu trashed Atiku so bad that I come dey pity Atiku.

Now imagine Kwakwanso was in APC and support Tinubu, then Tinubu would have won Kano with a landslide and the election would have been completed by now.

The "hoebi" you're mocking has more political value than your Tinubu, he's running on a party with no structure yet dusting your druglord on his own turf in Lagos, take out the governors from APC strongholds Tinubu is banking on, it's now obvious that Tinubu is completely overrated! He couldn't even win his own home state in Osun, no bloc votes guaranteed for him yet in the North from his APC strongholds, where are the "Buhari goodwill" votes he was supposed to inherit from the North? Atiku is more worried about Kwankwaso, Tinubu is not an immediate source of worry for us in the North.

What's this one even saying?

Who's a thief btw? Was Tinubu a previous president or VP? So how did he steal your money?

Meanwhile, There are several factors here.

Obi riding on the endsar waves as a leech..

APC average performance at the federal

Muslim Muslim ticket.

At the end, we thank God irrespective of the several obstacles.

And with population growth. Soon they won't need the south to win only for 25% spread.

How many people for south dey marry 4 wives and 20 children.

I keep saying it by the next three election. They north will be even more dominant than now. Fulani + Hausa is already 50% of Nigeria. By 2031. They could reach 55 to 60%.

You think Tinubu is worshipping the north now. Think what southern politicians will be doing to gain favor with northern voters by 2031

Atiku did not underestimate Obi.

Atiku can't force him to stay. Atiku gave him VP slot in 2019. What else should he offer him in 2023? His wives?

If Tinubu wins, Obi will not win election in the next 16 years. So e affect everybody.

No matter how you cut it, PDP bleeped up.

This election was literally a lay up

But you're right, it's not Atiku that underestimated Obi, PDP underestimated Obi.

Why would Peter Obi suffer? He is neither poor nor your typical Nigerian politician that depends on state largesse to survive. So, no matter the outcome of this election, Peter Obi will be remembered as the man who single-handedly elevated the status of the Labour Party.

If this election was between Tinubu and Atiku, most people in the South wouldn't bother coming out.

It's just like asking someone if he prefers to be suspended from a height with a rope tied round their neck or killed by a firing squad. Either way, the person still dies. APC is a curse to Nigeria.

You guys will see the impact of Peter Obi when results from SE and SS start trickling in 🥱🥱🥱
