In joining a few online supporters of both the PDP and APC, Deji Adeyanju and a host of other subtle mockers are missing some critical factors.
Voter registration is over and the figures from South East are too low. 2 Northern states will as usual cancel the votes of the zone.
— Comrade Deji Adeyanju (@adeyanjudeji) August 1, 2022
But rather than cancel, they may complement the South East votes as well as other votes from the south South and the South West. Including the North Central. In brotherhood Nigerians would stand in 2023 and beyond.
This is the “FINAL UPDATE ON INEC REGISTRATION” that is making the mockers exultant without thinking of the PVC wielders who cannot be remotely controlled this time around.
Northwest 22.67 million
Southwest 18.3 million
Southsouth 15.2 million
Northcentral 14.1 million
Northeast 12.8 million
Southeast 11.49 million
TOTAL 96.2 million

Abia + Imo + Enugu = 1,190,118 Only Katsina = 1,232,113.
Hope my so call Obedient are following the update. Leave online, go and register u no gree.
They preferred to stay online and be attacking people than to go and register.
Oya attack me oo
There’s a response for Deji.
South East votes =/= Igbo votes. It's a known fact that most Igbos of voting age live outside the SE and would normally register as voters in their states of residence. Until we have data based on state of origin, I would say, ogbeni rest.

Yet another response.
Sir, we have the Igbo’s also at Abuja, Lagos, port harcourt, Kano etc. Aside the indigent of most states in Nigeria, the Igbo’s are the next most populated and the population there should not be overlooked.

A colossal number of northern Muslims who are fed up with the status quo may neither vote for religion or region. It has happened before, again and again.
The propaganda is taking a new dimension that Peter Obi is a candidate for Christians only. May Allah punish all these liars. I’m a Muslim and I’m campaigning and voting for Peter Obi.

Let's pepper them. RETWEET if you'll vote Peter Obi.

In the June 12, 1993 election, Bashorun MKO Abiola, native of Abeokuta in the South West was pitted against Alhaji Bashir Dawakin Tofa of Kano. I was there as a Kano resident and some ordinary citizens walked up to me, a non indigene and said, “jama’a an nu na..an geji” in Hausa.
Loosely translated within the context of the election in which Abiola floored Tofa clearly and cleanly, meaning that the ordinary people are registering their protest that they are fed up with the status quo whereby power had resided mostly in the north, yet the northerners see no change in their lives.
They thus cast their votes for a southerner, against their northern compatriot.
No doubt the APC and Tinubu will play dirty in 2023 election.

We OBIdients are fighting for the survival of Nigeria. We will ensure Tinubu and Atiku fail by massively voting for Peter Obi and we'll defend our votes. Watch out, a tsunami is coming.

As it is now with Peter Gregory Obi, a new tribe has emerged. Nigerians are looking beyond tribe, region or religion. They seek a new ethos.
Peter Obi has created a new tribe in Nigeria. An ideological tribe; Our values are accountability and fiscal responsibility our culture is competence. Some of us are Yoruba, Some Igbos, Some Urhobo, Some Anang, Some Nupe, Some Fulani, Some Hausa, some Idoma and so on

@Nefertiti gives a direction on what may repeat the voting pattern Nigerians saw in Kano in pretty much of the northern states in 1993.
3. I suspect he’ll do exceedingly well in the North. His offer to our Northern brothers, will end banditry, insurgency & poverty, for good. For the first time, Almajiris will be off the streets, back in classrooms. Obi will unlock the Geniuses in those kids & turn them to stars.

I was discussing with a black American family friend in 1984, and she told me about how a new race, the African American race emerged in the United States.
A similar scenario is occurring in Nigeria now with Peter Obi.
They started with Twitter President to SE president later included SS now they're saying he is a candidate for the Christians only. OBIdients don't worry by October they will add Muslims to the list and in February Peter Obi will become the president of 🇳🇬

13. When the time comes, they’ll answer our clarion call. Together with the youths, Nigeria will witness an election never before seen in the History of Democracy. Naysayers will receive the biggest shock of their lives, & that’s a guarantee. Don’t be caught moping, JOIN US! ✊

Before emerging as the Nigerian President in 2015, despite the huge voter demographics in the north, did Muhammadu Buhari not lose several times to Southerners?
He lost to Obasanjo and also lost to Jonathan.
Northern voters usually have a mind of their own. So those who look at the figures and use them to drive their permutations may have another thing coming in 2023.
