Best move, if Kwankwanso refuses him ticket, there's labor party.
Best move for him,.
Even if Atiku wins PDP ticket, he will not win the general election

That would be a masterstroke.

I pray he’s the presidential candidate

And not running mate.

An Obi/Kwankwaso ticket would be a bomb

No be BOMB na GRENADE.

He is probably going to NNPP.

What I now don't know is who will be the VP or Presidential candidate between him and Kwakwanso.

If Kwakwanso will be the Presidential candidate & Obi VP; Then Obi is a big fool because he would have had more chance with being VP to Atiku in PDP.

If Obi will be the presidential candidate and Kwakwanso the VP; Then I like that even tho they will still lose the election. But at least he made a statement.

Only that the Kwakwanso I know will not be VP to Obi Pandora.

You don't expect him to join a party today and be immediately made the flag bearer for president, when the likes of Kwankwaso has the party under his control in Kano.

My guess would be that he would run as Kwankwaso's Vice.

Also, forget about party structure ish..... Every party started from somewhere.... It's still a long way to go before 2023 elections.... A lot can still happen before then.

But the way I see it, PDP is officially dead.

Only him knows. Other thoughts are merely speculation.
I predicted such few weeks ago , when Reno and Deji were attacking him through their tweets.
Obviously they were defending their pay masters . Because I wonder if not for tribal , religious and money politics we play , how a sane person who will choose Atiku over Obi. I may be wrong though .
There’s hunger in the land .

Having seen the resignation letter of Peter Obi from PDP which confirmed his exit from the party and withdrawal from the party’s presidential race, I’m tempted to question the rationale behind that decision.

I’m an ardent supporter of Peter Obi but I think that if he has truly resigned from the PDP, then he has goofed; it’s a complete faux pax for him.

Because I do not see any other platform that can possibly grant him victory in the general election.

Remaining in PDP would have guaranteed either the presidential ticket or vice presidential ticket which would have brought him closer to the presidency.

As we wait to confirm if this is fake or true, and to know Obi’s next move, I make bold to say that this decision, if confirmed, was a miscalculation.
You are not a politician. Peter Obi did the right thing after reliably get the plan of PDP. He is no longer being consider for President or VP again.

Well we wouldn’t know what is in Atiku brain.

If Peter Obi was very sure that Atiku will win the party’s ticket and pick him as running mate, he wouldn’t have left PDP. It is either he’s fully convinced that Atiku cannot win the ticket this time around or he’s very sure Atiku won’t pick him as running mate even if he picks the ticket.

The ticket will sweep the south.

And with Kwankwaso, the northwest would likely swing in their favor

After reading many comments here, my conclusion is this - Nigerians are not yet tired of suffering. They know nothing other than to continue serving slave masters. Having been in chains since birth, many have chosen this as a way of life...
Good luck y'all

What do you know ? He is leaving PDP without assurance of president or Vice President. Rest

What assurance are you talking about?

Obi of 2019 is different from Obi of 2022, who knows Obi in 2019? But I can tell you that 50% of the youth are root for him, now the challenge will be how many of them have PVC. But the good news is that Obi is now a reference point in Nigeria political system

In the words of alfa mails Peter obi brought nothing to the table

No war chest
No alliances
No voting bloc

All he brought was the same vibes and English we get from all politicians. We will fix, we have a plan..

At best of times all he could guarantee was Anambra

Thanks to ipob however the SE will have no relevance in these elections. Igbos are normally apathetic about elections. Now it is a staying alive matter

So what does Peter bring?

if Peter Obi, Kwakwanso and heavyweight defectors from both PDP and APC come together, they can win this election.

Prior to Buhari's emergence, was it conceivable to dislodge a ruling party in Nigeria?

You better start getting used to emerging realities...

No you are not correct. Peter Obi and Kwakwanso are political lightweights and they have no structure to win a national election.

Do you know why APC defeated PDP in 2015? It is because Buhari and Tinubu that forged alliance have their structures automatically transported to the new party.

—Tinubu suddenly came with almost 6 governors to the new party and a zone with the second most highest voter turnout.

—Buhari comes with his ANPP and constant 10million voters who cut across all core Northern states. The region with the highest voter turnout.

As it stands today, both Kwakwanso and Peter Obi don’t have any state they control. They don’t have governors they can influence who are moneybags and structure bags.

Don’t tell me about social media followers, I am taking about real election and structure.
