Such can never happen again. Some yorubas were deceived by the hypocrisy of Peter obi and "obidients." In 2027, Tinubu will be declared winner before the election begins. Only that you have blocked head, I have told you before that Tinubu is not who the entire Arewa can threaten. He is a master for hell -rufia and Atiku
True that to the bolded.

But it's NOT over yet because in politics, anything can still happen.

ONLY good governance through the reduction in the costs of goods and services, and most importantly, the total elimination of the insecurity situation by deploying jet fighters, surveillance and attack drones including military boots on the ground to assist the States in totally bombing out the foreign Fulani herdsmen and bandits from other West African countries who have irresponsibly invaded many Nigerian indigenous communities especially in the far Northern and Middle Belt of Nigeria and renamed those communities to Fulani names right in parts of Plateau, Southern Kaduna, Benue State, Zamfara, Katsina, etc, will endear President Bola Tinubu more to Nigerians who will then be able to go back to their farms and easily ensure his landslide victory.

Anything short of this, he WILL struggle a bit to win reelection if he decides to favor the minority Fulani political hegemony gangs (who are far less than the Hausas, the Yorubas, the Edos, and several ethnic groups in Nigeria who they have lorded it over right from British Colonial rule and military rule through subterfuge) and encouraged their foreign Fulani cousins to go on rampage killing people WITHOUT punishing them but instead Nasir El-Rufai paid these foreign Fulani bandits millions of Naira after they had killed hundred of innocent Southern Kaduna people!

Defections to APC mean nothing. Peter Obi proved it by moving to a new party and winning massively in 2023. It is the people that will vote, not the parties

He didn't lost Lagos, by electoral votes, he can be said to lose where he failed to make 25% of the votes like in Abuja and most of the SEast states!
In Lagos Obi has 46% while Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu got 45% of votes cast!

grin in your dreams…..a two time former Vp can’t be considered for that post again.

And how do you expect Atiku to be vice to a politically lesser bitter obi who Atiku brought to national level? If not for Atiku, who is bitter obi?

Some of you emergency political analyst should face the Romance and business section and stop analysing politics like a toddler….bitter obi will never be Nigeria president and that’s the truth grin
That's to tell you that a vast number of obi's ers know virtually nothing, research is far from them, just incoherent hypothesis every now and then

IF NOT FOR GREED NO NORTHERNER SHOULD HAVE VENTURED TO CONTEST...BUT AS IT IS NOW,THEY ARE OPENING UP THE CONTEST FOR STIFF COMPETITION



All we need is a good leader who will give us a better nation, regardless of the region they come from.
Honestey: 3:09pm On Apr 24
There is a big conundrum there for both of them. In that merger it's certain, Atiku will want to be the president and that means whatever Obi's movement intents to bring forth is dead. However, many non-igbo Obidients will never accept that arrangement and whoever amongst them who doesn't want Tinubu will rather sit at home chewing popcorn on election day.
Conversely, if Atiku somehow allowed Obi to be the flag bearer their winning chance is brighter but I don't know of others but I'm 99% certain, Atiku and not Obi will be ruling. This means that collation as powerful as it maybe is only in Atiku's interest.

Though both of them were on the same ticket previously, I'm not fond of either of them as they've both been tested in one way or another. And to me, they both failed. If left to me alone to decide, I'd prefer someone who hasn't been tested before, like Professor Chidi Odinkalu, One Mr Aliyu from Jigawa state, Sowore as president

My grouse with Atiku remains the fact that for once he had never condemned or chided the Fulani kidnappers, bandits and terrorist.
As for Obi his yansh is opened, he's not just the person thought he is!

Obi and Atiku merger can hardly produce something tangible except Atiku is ready to be the deputy, unfortunately I don't see such possibility. The northern agenda for 2027 will be perceived as InJustice, considering the rotation arrangement between South and North and the fact that the south was double crossed in 2015, repeating the same thing in 2027 will not be accepted, this is why many are ing APC.

It seems you don't know what happened in 2022. Peter Obi left PDP after learning that Atiku has decided to contest again. Because he was not willing to be Atiku deputy, as he believed it is the turn of the South.

From the comments I've read here it's evident that the Yoruba man is the most tribalistic people in Nigeria even with the current suffering in the land just imagine y'all still tinubu just because u hate the Igbo man it's sad Nigeria can't be united it's best the country saperates
they hate the yiibo man, yet he won Lagos, while in your yiibo region you all voted your Yiibo candidate with almost hundred percent vote.

Talking about hypocrisy of an average yiibo, and still you still find Yorubaland suitable to make home and cite your businesses, how many Yorubas or other ethnic nationalities have that same privileges in your region?

Not marketable but their votes in 2023 combined doubled that of the drug lord


So did they contested under the same party?
Better still you can go to court and instruct the Court to add their votes together and merge them as one .
Since they have more votes.

In a free and fair election, APC should not even win 5% of votes in Nigeria. But this is Nigeria . Election results usually show an underperforming party and politicians win. Let me ask Nigerians, is your country or life better than it was 10 years ago? Are those in power working to make your lives better or to make your their own and that of their family and friends better? You don't deliver or perform you get booted out that is what democracy is about. But it is only in Nigeria and corrupt countries a president who is seeking for cows to have rights all over the country while the people are suffering ,dying or being killed is re-elected.

So igbos are now a majority in lagos state? U are a joker. Did Tinubu not live his native Osun state to be claiming Lagos?

Bro, try and use your brain small small na. The result is a result of a lot of Igbos in Lagos, plus some confused, blind Yoruba youths who are wiser now, plus some Yoruba Christians who were upset because of the Muslim/Muslim ticket. The churches campaigned against him simply because of that. Those were the 3 main reasons for the 8000 disparity.
Even with all those factors, Obi only won by 8000 votes.
That will not happen again. Go and write that down.

In 2023, Kwankwanso should have deputized Obi since Atiku had occupied such a post twice before. They would have been unstoppable but Kwankwanso was so full of himself as if he was bringing so much to the table apart from Kano votes. Obi's deputy was not that politically strong hence, he brought nothing on board.
If Obi can get a very strong acceptable candidate as his running mate in the core North and the likes of Atiku s them, they're likely going to give the APC a run for their money even though the platform is going to be another huddle as the Labour Party is in a mess due to greed.

Best chance was 2023 Buhari made everything difficult for tinubu greed kill the 3 of them
If obi and Kwankwaso merge obi has president easy win add they’re vote together self he tinubu own and most vote Atiku hit will hv gone to them
To me God just Favour tinubu that his opponent are greedy
How can north finish 8rs Buhari Atiku and Kwankwaso should not be on ballot as president only vp slot is for them

Yes, Tinubu lost in Lagos simply because lots of Igbos have abandoned their states and now reside in Lagos. Tinubu lost by 8000 votes, not by a lot in an election of a million plus.
Obi won in the SE simply because the vast majority of voters there are Igbos. You don't need to be a political genius to figure that one out. It's pure common sense.

In the 2023 elections, INEC controversially credited Tinubu with 12 states, while Peter Obi, who secured clear victories in at least 14 states, was officially recorded with only 11 or 12, including the FCT. This discrepancy, attributed to INEC's questionable conduct, highlights the significant credibility gap surrounding the election outcome.

Tinubu entered the race as the establishment’s preferred candidate, but that sentiment has since shifted. His ongoing efforts to consolidate power may prove insufficient if his istration continues to be defined by incompetence, crass nepotism, resurging insecurity, and disregard for those who contributed to his rise.

The northern region remains a pivotal force in Nigerian politics. It is foreseeable that Atiku Abubakar may be encouraged to step aside in favor of a Peter Obi–Bala Mohammed ticket, potentially with the of influential religious leaders mobilizing grassroots sentiment. Meanwhile, Rabiu Kwankwaso, widely known to have aligned with Tinubu's interests in the last presidential election, will remain a very marginal player in future power dynamics.

Despite the strategic maneuvers Tinubu and his allies may attempt, the 2027 general election is poised to be one of the most fiercely contested in Nigeria’s history.

Though both POO and AAA are incompetent, given an option to choose one between both, Atiku is far above Obi in of intellect and other indices. I will take Atiku over Obi anyday, anytime.
