6 WAYS BUHARI'S VICTORY WILL AFFECT TOMORROW'S GUBERNATORIAL ELECTION IN THE SOUTH WEST REGION

I have been keenly following the dimensions  and  tales  of our  current political milieu and its accompanying drama and sagacity .


Under these circumstances, I find it even harder to express my most candid opinions, of course, its not an act of cowardice or lacking the spice to appropriate the philosophical underpinnings of many stories, but the heat and contentions generated via arguments across different platforms, the mixed sentiments and initial interest that pervades our minds,although,i acknowledge the robust and lofty criticism we enjoy without restrictions.


Interesting as they sound, we absolutely must not  downplay the part where our human mind dances to the tune of our emotions. Thus, we  may form reactive opinions, but sometimes again, we up our game and grow past sentiments by sucking in our discontentment or displeasure over other's disapproval of our ideologies.



However,the ideologies defines us,without which we become buffoons of misplaced identities, hence views must be expressed without fear or favour, rather, objectified while embracing reality.



On this note, I welcome you to a part of my world ,(a platform to say my own)as we review the most insightful and intriguing trending stories,politicking ,its players, and political events in light of our historical antecedents,bargaining,current manifestos and how they play out in bettering the lot of our tomorrow for our mental and political education,since the future is now!

Please feel free to comment and I beg you to comment, and share posts,videos,trending stories and issues as you deem necessary.


This is happening in Nigeria,welcome!


Saturday the 9th of March is another significant day as  Nigerians get to elect their gubernatorial candidates.


Having just concluded one of the most keenly contested Presidential Elections two Saturday's away, history  would be made again, come the 9th of March 2019.


You would agree the universe revolves around cause/effect relationship, truth be told yeah? Thus I would like to examine

  6 ways Buhari's victory would affect the outcomes of the gubernatorial elections, tomorrow, March 9th,2019 in the South west Region for now

1.Lagos state

Many, including minor political parties who have hitherto  shown support for Atiku are  retracing their steps and  rapidly  shifting allegiance , as many hope to retain the mantra of relevance, through the next 4 years, even #Otoge as a movement Slogan could not see the light of the day when its gladiators threw its punch on a focused  Lagosians, who seem very contented with the successes and achievement  of the APC. Also tenable is  the last minute reconciliation moves and permutations by  Apc with some Ndigbo associations, and some Igbo dominated area like Ajegunle, some of  who also agree, that the good of Lagos  equally translates  good for Igbos living in Lagos.

However, this excludes the many Easterners whose disdain for Tinubu is a ready propellant  for the support of the opposition, hence the major contender, Jimi  Agbaje can rely on the latter for support.

The victory of the opposition is however very largely dependent on how many Easterner's and other pro Agbaje's come out enmasse to vote, but one may need to ask.
What the ratio is, between Apc supporters and pro Agbajes ?


2. OYO STATE

Looking at the recent event within the last 4 to 5 days, an upturn of the status quo could occur in favour of the All progressive congress, but overtime, the  stakes have been in favour of Seyi Makinde, the PDP'  aspirant, as many  people in Oyo state, seem even  more resolute in giving their votes to the candidate of the PDP ,GMB's victory or not.

Ajimobi on other hand is a rather bad market,inspite President Buharis victory,thus,  it is not surprising, that the Leadership of the Apc advised Ajimobi to stay off the campaign grid, at the moment, let's just say Ajumobi's presence is less than good for the APC at a crucial time as this.

Akala's defection on the other hand appears dicey in terms of thinking of  how it impinges Saturday's election, but in a way, Gmb's Victory may have greatly propelled Akala's defection to the APC.

Akala's gesture could offer both positive and negative impact for the APC,

Firstly, he may succeed in wining he's supporters over to Adelabu of the APC side or rather,his Ogbomosho supporters may decide to call his bluff and take such actions as Betrayal, for such people. Makinde seems the most preferred alternative and may seem like a consensus candidate as some may think.

Also bearing in mind the smaller opposition parties who have reached a consensus to support the PDP candidate, hence,the stakes are higher for Seyi Makinde, but we will have to wait and see.

3. OGUN STATE


Ogun looks more cemented for the APC candidate ,and one of this factor points to Governor Amosun's last minute reconcillation with  stakeholders across the major LG's representatives , he  was finally able to wiggle his way into their hearts at the very last moment. Well, i dont know what he must have told them.

Also, plausible, was the party's non shielding gesture of Amosun's wrongs, hence, the party leadership did not hesistate to show Governor Amosun, that he crossed the line when he anointed a candidate different from the party's conscensus candidate. This implies that Dapo Abiodun of the APC stands a good chance against kashamu Buruji of the PDP


4.OSUN STATE

Election for House of assembly members of the APC and opposition does not necessarily position the Apc for an automatic win, going by the March 2nd winner ratio, however, things are looking better for the APC,of course the presidential election naturally comes into play.

Omisore's influence on other hand will speak for the Apc. evidently, Adeleke does not pose a threat to the APC, since he could not even pull it off at the previous elections, hence,the APC seems equipped to whisk away more assembly seats than the PDP.
My prediction is  60 %APC to 40% PDP...just saying

5. EKITI STATE

These ones have tested the the two sides of the coin ,hence it is not hard to figure out,the reason Buhari won Ekiti elections,they have tasted governance under Fayemi and Fayose Government and their approval of the latter is responsible for the victory APC recorded at the presidential polls,although another is to opine that the incumbency of the APC governor came into play,but recently, events has shown us,it is not exactly a major! and this pattern would likely repeat it self ,as the parties gun for major seats. we also cannot neglect how many PDP executives in Ekiti state, defected to the APC after GMB won the presidential race,the outcome on Saturday is therefore predictable in Ekiti.


6.ONDO STATE

Governor Akeredolu seem to lack the virtual overwhelming influence in Ondo state despite being a sitting governor ,and this is evidenced by the outcome of the March 9th election, as the people did not  hide the fact that,they are not fond so fond of the Governor,many expressed their distrust for him and called him desperate.

Buhari's Victory or not,the APC and the main opposition would  have to battle in a tight race for the assembly seats ,hence, they may end up striking a balance,my prediction is a 50 /50 outcome between the APC an the PDP.
