pazienza: The winning formular is Sule Lamido/Peter Obi come 2019. APC stands no chance with Buhari who might be old enough that the north might not want to risk a second term with him. Sule Lamido will split northern vote while Peter Obi goes with SE and SS vote, God willing Ekiti and Ondo will deliver from South west. Lots of votes will be expected from Lagos too. Finally, people should stop saying o southerner will ever rule Nigeria again. God directs the affairs of Nigeria. If the times comes to break this country it will happen seamlessly too. We hope every geopolitical zone gets a fair chance to lead this country for their own 8 years with credible candidates. No zone should have a monopoly of leadership unless you want the country to break up and everyone returns home. 1 Like |

Emyben: APC can't make promises of presidency to the SE, it is obvious that Tinubu and SW are scheming for the presidency come 2023. They hope the North support them like they did the North in 2015. But come 2023, PDP will test the North and see if it's sense of gratitude to SW, is greater than its born to rule mentality and power lust. Come 2023, when the APC presents a SW presidential candidate with a Northern VP, PDP will present a Northern candidate with an Igbo Vice-president( preferably from the Igbo speaking parts of SS) . 2 Likes |

dcaliph:I have lived in the north and can categorically tell you that your assertion was only relevant in the days of Gowon; no longer applicable in the 21st century Nigeria. The North west will undoubtedly be comfortable with a Tafa Balewa from the North east but definitely not a david Mark/George Akume/Jonah Jang from the middle belt, or even a Labaran Maku from Nasarawa or Taraba. That is the north as at today! 6 Likes 1 Share |

pretydiva:thats their Strong hole Man and PDP has a the most number of Governors there with PDP not being on Power they would really want to Impress there, btw sef I said it depends on how Buhari performs in the next four year. What make u think too that the North will still Vote Buhari 2019 (if he underperforms)? Buhari is No God, anything can happen. 1 Like |

Emyben: Sure, if APC shops for a presidential candidate from the SE, they might put up a good fight, but I still remain skeptical if APC will do that. I see APC wanting to take power to SW after Buhari. Let's keep our fingers crossed and I pray God will keep me and every other Nigerian alive to see what happens in 2019. 1 Like |

[size=14pt][b]Babatope is spot on because PDP is guaranteed victory in 2019 for the following reasons: 1. Nigerians vote along ethnic and religious lines, and will still do that in 2019. 2. Given the strong hold of the PDP in south-south and south-east, they only need a fairly popular northern presidential candidate with a south-east running mate e.g Ibrahim Shekarau or Sule Lamido/Sulivan Chime or any young vibrant south-eastern technocrat, many of whom can be found in the local private sector or USA, Canada and the UK with proven track records in international organizations. This ticket will split votes in the north almost 50:50; add that to the block votes from the south-south (who will certainly reciprocate the support of the south east for GEJ) and south-east, then you know the winner. If APC tries rigging, then "adieu Nigeria". 3. Traditionally, the federal government has always been constituted by a party that is strong in the north and in the east (now split into south east and most part of south south). Don't argue, just do a little research on the strong holds of the following ruling parties since independence. (1st republic- NPC/NCNC coalition), (2nd Republic- NPN) and (4th Republic- PDP). The perpetual opposition were (1st republic- Action Group), (2nd republic-Unity Party of Nigeria) and 4th republic- 1999-2007-Alliance for Democracy{AD}, 2007-2011 Action Congress of Nigeria, {ACN}). This is what I call the default political equation of Nigeria. 4. In addition, the APC will suffer a hierarchy crisis sooner or later because it is an amalgam of parties within a party, many of whom still see the internal cleavages based on ACN vs CPC vs ANPP vs New PDP. Cries of injustice will soon fill the political atmosphere when any group feels it has been shortchanged, which you can bet has already started happening. I'm sure you know Tinubu and Akume are already slugging it out with Saraki and his own supporters. Let's not even add the Amaechi rebellion which is bound to happen sometime, somewhere along this cliffhanger to 2019.[/size][/b] 4 Likes |

babestella: SW has made Southern unity Impossible in a democratic setting. Any party that presents a SW presidential candidate, will lose, cos their rival will present a Northern candidate with a vice from the SS/SE zone. And any party that presents a SE/SS candidate, will lose, as the SW will team up with the North. Every thing remaining equal, the North will rule a democratic Nigeria for ever.They will use both PDP and APC to achieve that. 3 Likes |

Babatope has become one of the sycophants in PDP. They could not muster the courage to tell Jonathan the truth when he denied the North the benefit of the zoning formula after Yar'dua died. Now, they are going back to the North after they have lost woefully! 1 Like |

Chief Babatope, be aware that your two PDP governors in SW will defect before the end of 2015 and APC and APGA will gain more supporters in your 'proud' SS and SE. . .hence, the end of PDP as a party. I wish you goodluck as you merge and change name. 1 Like |

babestella: The North are now the beautiful bride of the Nigerian democracy. If I were in their shoes, I will maintain the status quo, and I am sure that's exactly what they will do. They will ride both the APC and PDP to eternal presidency, in a free and fair election, that's the only possible result. The rest of the south would now have to scrap for the crumbs off the Northern table ie the glorified VP position, thanks to the Jagaban of Borgu, the phantom sophisticated political strategist. *grins* 2 Likes |

HzRF:They should be planning on how to rebuild, rebrand and reenergize the party before the elections. Not who and why wo will run for this or that position. The strategy should be on how to ensure that pdp doesn't die. Saying that pdp will field a hausa man can only go a long way to kill the morale of some people in the party, people who are there for their regional interest. What do you expect the PDP members who believe northerners are playing born to rule to do about this development knowing fully well that after Buhari, a northerner will still take over? PDP is not planning to change for the better. They still want to continue imposing candidates. Make Dem continue. Apc will just keep cruising. 1 Like |

Look, people of north are now wiser, either christian or muslims, either north central or north west or north east because we later realize that PDP wanted to use religion sentiment to divide Us and thank GOD we survive it.
