  1. Politics is not a do or die affairs. If you do not like somebody why not leave him alone? Will he force you to vote for him? Nigerian politics is not politics at all. It creat antogonism between the asparant. We can not contineou in this politics of hatred. Shame to that political party.

  2. * The first step of mistake of Atiku was to contest as a northerner.
    * The second was to allow Wike and others to go.
    * The 3rd was to put Dino Melaye as his spokesman

    1. We Nigerians shuld understand that our old politician don’t care about us because their mentality is old all they think is how to pack our money for their unborn children

    2. Atiku block the chances of PDP
      His chances to Aso villa is not feasible
      How I wish someone close to him will advise him not to spend his money coz there are a lot of batrayal moving with him

  3. First point should’ve really been considered to avoid all dis. Because the northerner ruling us again would be a nightmare to the Southerners

  4. It is unfortunate for the people and government of Borno to do this, what of if Atiku won the forth coming election, this was how SAS did to Obajanjo and he won and by God’s grace Atiku will win because power is in the hand of Almighty God the Creator of universe.

  5. Moreso there’s rumors all over the town that people are being paid expecially Keke NAPEP riders not to welcome Atiku, so in every rumors there’s a little bit elements of truth
