Why I May Not Hesitate To Support Peter Obi In 2027 – Atiku Abubakar

The Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in the 2023 election, Atiku Abubakar has hinted at the possibility of supporting his Labour Party counterpart in the last election, Peter Obi in 2027.

The former Vice President, who is currently on a merger talk with stakeholders of some opposition political parties, said he will not hesitate to support Obi in the next election if the party picks the former Anambra governor.

According to The Sun, Atiku gave the hint in an interview with BBC Hausa Service.

DAILY POST recalls that Obi and Atiku recently met behind closed doors, sparking speculations about a merger of some opposition political parties ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Confirming the move by opposition parties to align in a bid to unseat the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC in the 2027 election, Atiku said, “We can merge to achieve a common goal. So, it’s possible and nothing can stop it if we so wish to achieve that.

Atiku said if the new “party decides that it’s the turn of the South-East and Peter Obi is chosen, I won’t hesitate to support him.

“I have said repeatedly and I even said it before the 2023 general elections that if PDP decides to zone the presidential ticket to the South or South-East specifically, I won’t contest it.

“As long as it is the decision of the party, I will abide by it. But I contested the 2023 presidential ticket because it was thrown open to all members of the party”.

🥱🥱

This is what ATIKU said oo..
Atiku said if the new “party decides that it’s the turn of the South-East and Peter Obi is chosen, I won’t hesitate to support him.
Meaning until obi emerge as the party candidate before ATIKU can support him . So obi must get ready to face ATIKU again in primaries election

Atiku is up to his Old tricks again

He will not stand down for anyone

He only wants Peter Obi as his Vice President Candidate because Obi took almost half of his votes last time and made him loose Elections

As soon as Peter Obi rejoins him
Atiku will change Story and say the Press misquoted him
Atiku is not willing to give up the Presidency Slot even for his own Son

He will..but its all a strategy...he now realizes its rhe southern Nigeria turn for leadership, instead of his to publicly admit that, he throws obi against tinubu, so that will b remembered as his sacrifice when its northern turn and he stands to contest...
