They are otherwise known as volatile states.
From the political happenings, it's obvious that the following states could be termed volatile:
1) Rivers State: Amaechi complained of army harassment, malpractices, during the last presidential election. APC even called for the cancellation of the results from Rivers.
Of course, incidences of killings, violence were also recorded in various parts of the state.
So this time around, Amaechi would want to do everything within his powers, ( remember he now had 'oga at the top') to ensure that APC Candidate wins the gubernatorial election in rivers.
On the other hand, Wike who has the backings of the presidency would also do all he can to ensure he wins.
So it's a fight to finish...
2)Lagos State: APC, the ruling party would do all it could to ensure it retains power, especially now that APC is about to control the federal government. APC can't afford to lose Lagos state.
On the other hand, PDP, haven lost the federal government, would do all it can to ensure it wins Lagos state.
The Oba of Lagos alleged threat may also play a role in making Lagos a hot zone during the coming governorship elections.
3 Imo State: It's obvious that PDP would likely win in most of the south eastern states. But Okorocha would want to do all he can to ensure that APC wins. Okorocha cannot afford to lose IMO now that APC would call the shots at the federal government level. But PDP would equally fight to ensure Okorocha loses power.
Recall, during the last presidential elections, Okorocha alleged of army harassment of APC members.
What do you think about the above states I enlisted as volatile states?
Are there other states you consider to be volatile that should be mentioned?
You should bring them on board.
