As the 2023 general election is fast approaching, I have been trying to do my permutations as to who will be the next president of Nigeria.
Though I'm not a political analyst, I have over the years develop great interest on the affairs of this country especially on the political scene.
Since political parties are yet to conduct their primaries, asking this question now will not narrow our thoughts to the candidate of any major party.
My contenders
Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Atiku Abubakar, Yemi Osibanjo, Aminu Tambawal...
Analysis
As an individual who is not under any political party, I have come to see these aspirants are the major contenders to take over the affairs of this country, in all honesty, I don't fancy any of them, yeah Osibanjo and Aminu Tambawal maybe easy to market because of their track records compared to Tinubu and Atiku, but I really doubt either of them will be able to win their party primaries (my opinion)
Now, if we are to be sincere to ourselves the ruling party and the main opposition are the only two political parties with a solid structure across the 36 state of the country.
For the reason alone, I feel either the APC or the PDP will produce the next president of Nigeria even though they present a thief or a drug baron as their candidate (I'm not been sentimental)
I'm not ruling the fact that between now and the general election next year, alot of twist and fate could happen ( which I really hope for) but as of today I don't see any candidate outside the ruling party and its main opposition becoming president.
My verdict
Since our elections are characterized always with massive rigging and vote buying, meaning the highest bidder or the man with the cash and influence stands a major chance of winning, also not ruling out religious and ethnic bias in the line of voting among Nigerians, I've come with the conclusion that whichever party fields a northern candidate will emerge victorious in the general elections ( I hope I'm wrong lol).... But not withstanding, I am predicting Yemi Osibanjo to be the next president of Nigeria......if I was to give a second guess it's going to be ..... hmmm... Atiku (northern factor)......


So nairalanders, who are you predicting to be Nigeria's next president.....

Tinubu stands a better chance of becoming president than Atiku.....

I think Aminu Tambawal will be president next....

Dan amanar daura

Can Tambawal defeat Atiku in PDP primaries

As regards tinubu, I feel he will be betrayed by the north, just like Awolowo and MKO

How did the North betray MKO ?

The masses voted for him enmasse in the presidential election and he won most of the Northern states.

Those that annulled the election are the military boys just as they planned a coup against Balewa/Azikiwe in 1966, Shagari in 1984.

Would we now say the North betrayed Shagari or what?

Tinubu is the next President

I was referring to the northern elites... What IBB and Abacha did to MKO is worse than betrayal.... weather they were military men or not doesn't change the fact that as northerners they betrayed MKO.... Especially IBB, if you know you know.....the story even goes beyond the annulment of the 1993 june12 election...

Baralatie is your presido
I am just looking for a very good vice president
