Voting Patterns In The South East 1999 Till 2023. Show Me The Tribal Correlation

Tinubu supporters who have been lying to the country since 2015, have also been lying that the South East voted along tribal lines in the 2023 presidential election rather than who they believed was the best presidential candidate.

Let me show you the voting patterns of the South East since 1999, just to set the records straight in case you haven't realized that Tinubu supporters are lying to you to cover up for their poor choices since 2015 fueled mostly by tribal and/or religious bigotry.

Breakdown of SE votes % since 1999:

1999 (Obasanjo vs Olu Falae): 86% (Obasanjo), 14% (Falae).

2003 (Obasanjo vs. Buhari vs Ojukwu): 65% (Obasanjo), 28% (Ojukwu), 7% (Buhari). Note that Buhari had an Igbo running mate.

2007 (Yar'Adua vs. Buhari): 97% (Yar'Adua), 3% (Buhari). Note that Buhari had an Igbo running mate again.

2011 (Goodluck vs Buhari): 98% (Goodluck), 2% (Buhari). Buhari's % didn't change much despite not having an Igbo running mate.

2015 (Goodluck vs Buhari): 93% (Goodluck), 7% (Buhari). Buhari's % increased despite not having an Igbo running mate

2019 (Buhari vs Atiku): 89% (Atiku), 11% (Buhari). Buhari's % increased again despite Atiku having an Igbo running mate

2023 (Peter Obi vs. Tinubu vs. Atiku): 91% (PO), 5% (Tinubu), 4% (Atiku). PO had slightly less % in the SE compared to GEJ and Yar'Adua.


Note the following:

1. Ojukwu had only 28% of the votes in the SE in 2003. Why only 28% if this was about tribe? Ojukwu didn't even win any state in the SE at the presidential election.

2. Buhari had Igbo running mates in 2003 and 2007. Why only 7% and 3% respectively if there was a tribal correlation?

3. Buhari who was losing very badly in the SE with Igbo running mates, increased his % against Atiku who had an Igbo running mate.

Meanwhile from 2007 till 2023, these Igbos contested at the presidential election:

2007: Orji Uzo Kalu (Only 3% of votes in the SE)

2011: Pat Utomi (less than 1% of votes in the SE)

2019: Kingsley Moghalu (less than 1% of votes in the SE)

2023: Peter Obi (91% of votes in the SE)

Show me again where tribe played any significant role in the SE more than any other region in Nigeria
