The image shows the result of the last election. They need to consolidate on that.in 2011, Buhari(CPC) won 12 states while Ribadu(ACN) won 1 state(Osun State). Goodluck won the rest. At worst case scenario, the 13 states won by CPC and ACN in 2011 combined should be maintained in the 2015 elections for victory. The key question is whether Buhari can win Lagos,Ogun,Oyo,Ondo,Ekiti and Kwara which are all APC states anyway with the exception of Ondo and Ekiti ? If buhari wins the 4 APC states from the above that brings the total to 17 states .The entire south west apart from Osun state voted Goodluck Jonathan in 2011 so its shaky. I dont see what Osinbajo is offering to secure the remaining states. Unless ofcourse APC wins Ondo and Ekiti which would give Buhari 19 states and more likely than not secure victory for him. EDO ,IMO and Nasarrawa states which were won by Goodluck in 2011 are now APC states and who knows if Buhari/Osinbajo can clinch those states ? If they do, that would see APC win 22 statess and surely secure victory. WILL Rivers state under Ameachi as APC Governor even vote for Buhari/Osinbajo ? That one na Wild Card State. I would have prefered Rochas,Adams or Rotimi. But yet again what do i know? APC,Change is here. Time to end 15 years of PDP bondage I also dont believe APC should waste resources campaigning in some states such as bayelsa. If they focus on the states discussed here i think it is the end of PDP. They shouldnt also campaign on twitter or nairaland, they should campaign to the pepper seller and okada riders cos these are the majority and the will stand under the sun for hours to cast their votes. 9 Likes

adeaks: If APC were contesting just to be on the ballot, then a VP from the SS would have been OK because giving the VP slot to SS or SE will not guarantee success. But if we are to take back Nigeria from PDP cabals, the right thing to do is to go SW. The votes from North and SW is enough to dislodge them. And once we win the presidency, Amaechi and the other guys from the SS will SURELY get their dues. 1 Like |

Yemi is a professor of law and a former attorney-general of Lagos State and Commissioner for Justice. He is also a senior advocate of Nigeria (SAN).

Osinbajo’s nomination was concluded last night after APC national leader, bola Tinubu, was asked to shelf his ambition that nearly tore the party apart. An early morning meeting between Ogun state governor, Ibikunle Amosun and Buhari finally resolved the acrimonious logjam in the party. Osinbajo beat other potential candidates that reportedly included Governor of rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, Governor Adams Oshiuomhole of Edo State, and former Lagos Senator Olorunnimbe Mamora 3 Likes 1 Share |

Lyoncrescent: I appreciate your thinking but winning the SW with Osinbajo is much more easier now than in 2011. In 2011, Buhari did not have the support of Tinubu, Fashola and all other APC politicians which he now enjoys. I am very sure that Osinbajo was nominated by Tinubu after Buhari rejected him for the slot. So, Tinubu and the rest APC governors will surely deliver the votes. Going SS would have been much more difficult to sell to the Yorubas because the ticket does not guarantee them the presidency even in the next eight years especially when they have been marginalized by GEJ for the past six years. So, how do you convince them to troop out on election day? All in all, I see this choice as the best option to defeat PDP. 2 Likes |

To be honest, with this choice APC just lost it. BRF or Oshiomole would have been a formidable candidate. It is no brainer to know that a seating governor would have been a nightmare for the PDP and would be able to pull more votes than this Osinbajo selection especially from the SW. 2015 election would be an easy ride for PDP since these are the best (GMB & Osinbajo) APC could offer. 2 Likes |

If you keep playing this regionalism card, even those who wanted to vote Buhari in SE/SS will change their minds and as usual APC with their North/South-West ticket will lose to the otuoke fisherman who only has SS/SE to back him up.
