Dumebi Kachikwu, presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), says he is forced to accept the sad reality that he cannot win.

The presidential election is billed to take place across the country on Saturday, February 25.

On February 20, TheCable reported that the interim leadership of the ADC blamed Ralph Nwosu, the national chair who was recently removed by a court, for being responsible for actions of aggrieved factions destabilising the party.

Prior to this, some chieftains of the party led by Nwosu declared their support for Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), while another faction endorsed Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Similarly, Biyi Otegbeye, governorship candidate of ADC in Ogun state, declared his support for Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) standard bearer.

Speaking at a news conference on Thursday in Abuja, Kachikwu said although there is no hope of him clinching the presidential seat, he will not quit the race.

“I am forced to accept the sad reality that there is no pathway towards victory for Ahmed and me,” NAN quoted him as saying.

“I will, therefore, make a different argument today and it is the case for a Nigeria that works for everyone.”

Kachikwu, however, commended the acceptance of Obi by the youths, adding that to defeat the ruling party at the polls, LP and the PDP must form a formidable partnership.

“As true democrats, the leadership of both the PDP and Labour Party must find a way to work with the other smaller parties towards building a formidable coalition that ensures that the contest is even,’ he said.

“Any attempt to go this alone guarantees another four years for the APC. Beyond this, we must accept the reality that except Northern Nigeria miraculously comes together in the next 24 hours to throw their support for the PDP candidate, the race looks likely to favour the APC candidate.

“I subscribe to the argument that the Igbo have not had a fair share in the Nigerian nation, most of the blame for this must go to our leaders who mostly subscribe to self and family as against building their states or region.”

Unknown to many, Obedients are Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu secret weapon.
Many thanks to Mr Peter Obi and his supporters.

Obi dey Jones... Even bet9ja give Jagaban 1.70 odds, Atiku 2.10 odds, Obi 98.50 odds

I don carry Jagaban with my house rent..

Yes I agree

Atiku should step down and endorse Obi

What a funny dude 🤣 😄

Reality has started setting in for mushroom candidates, remaining the Andrews liver salt one.

So him party no sure whether to endorse LP or PDP? Why their candidate no go confuse?

Na now day break for him side

We the Obidents Nigerian citizens worldwide have already rap up our victory in this election.

Dear Nigeria Youth abstain from being used by Nigeria "Polithiefcians" during this election period, Do not waste your promising life because of this Oil thefts, money launders, oppressors, grandpa's that needs to stay of politics and public fund looters.

All thier children are living overseas and lives are better than yours. do not die for them because these guys will always unite afterwards ..

Reading

Politicians will never change

Abeg swing it to Labour Party. You will never regret it.

I think it is high time we have a law that will restrict people or candidates or party from collapsing their structure for another candidate or party, even if you must collapse there should be a time frame for that but judiciary no help self for changing name of contestant. Once that period has elapsed nothing should be done again. I believe ballot papers must have been printed by now.

This is what Obi should have done, but he's enjoying the attention at the expense of his followers' blood pressure

Reminds me of one presidential candidate that year like that, a lady who got only one vote

Imagine even your family not voting for you, even your own husband

People are too dumb to realize they are being used. This is a called race for Tinubu. But by all means, please keep on voting Obi. Brainless louts.

This is one is so obvious
This is not a situation of in-between the devil( tinubu)and deep blue sea( atiku)

But the situation we are now is one in-between the devil( atiku and tinubu)and redemption(obi)

The office of the president needs someone who is physically and mentally fit

Lets do away with tribalism and religion and do the right thing

You ate Asiwaju bread.

He helped you earlier in life. Go and thank him personally You can't repay him with the future of 220m Nigerians. Go and thank him personally
Asiwaju is not mentally, physically fit and not fit to preside over a country...

Before you vote..put on your conscience and ask yourself can you handle over your daughter or sister for marriage to a man who is already mentally and physically gone. A man who is not aware of his environment.
If you can't then don't force tinubu Upon Nigeria please 🙏

This guy seem very wise on Nigerian politics and his analysis well grounded on reality.

At the moment Obi is working for Tinubu's victory while Obidense are lost in wonderland.

......

Is this not the ADC candidate that said "Any Vote For Peter Obi Is Vote For Tinubu"?

Obi and Obi alone is winning this election. Every other candidates can't win and they know it

Like he had a chance

Imagine a presidential candidate calling Nigerians "You guys"

Arrogant bst
