2023 presidency: Why we dumped Atiku, group reveals
The group said it supported Atiku in 2019 based on zoning and the belief that the PDP presidential candidate was the most viable to compete against President. Muhammadu Buhari.

YOFA said after the 2019 election, its members unanimously endorsed power rotation and urged the PDP to zone the presidency to the south.

The group said it withdrew its support for the PDP after jettisoning the rotation principle and producing another northern candidate.

YOFA reveals why it's backing Peter Obi
YOFA, which has changed its name to Youths for Peter Obi (YOPO), said it decided to back the LP presidential candidate and his running mate, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, because they "are young, diverse, competent, energetic, kind-hearted,"

The group added that Obi and his running mate have the character to deal decisively with Nigeria's current issues and challenges.

It called on Nigerians to support Obi to "take Nigeria from consumption to production."

"Mr. Peter Obi, 61, the candidate of the Labour Party, is and remains our endorsed candidate and will enjoy the free online and offline support of this structure," the group said.

After watching Peter Obi on the townhall with Kadaria Ahmed being grilled on TV, and I watched the whole thing to be sure myself, you can’t help but drop whatever ethnic or religious bias you have and support this man!

As the elections draw nigh, and picture of a winner becomes clearer, this is what you get.

By January, you fear realignments for Peter Obi.

All fence sitters will come down from their fence to Obi’s side.

If you know Wike well well, then Atiku’s ambition to be President is dead on arrival. Wike is a tough nut for the likes of Dino Melaye to crack.

Atiku can smell defeat already. Hence he has reverted to plan B which is to play the tribal card. He is a two-faced bigot who should not be allowed near the corridor of power.

Smart Nigerian youths. They knew Atiku is not a good option so they collected mobilization funds and dumped his sorry ass. I expect others to do even worse on Tinubu because he is a bigger their!

You're right. Many people are still sitting on the fence because they're afraid of backing a candidate that will lose. This is particularly so with those that prefer a candidate that doesn't belong to their ethnicity and those that rely on government patronage. However, once the picture becomes clearer on who the actual winner is going to be, they will take sides.

Where it gets more interesting is that Tinubu and Atiku has peaked on their support base while that of Peter Obi is still fast growing. Therefore, most of the undecided are likely to switch towards Obi than Atiku or Tinubu.

On the election proper, Atiku and Tinubu will checkmate each other in NW and NE against rigging and Northern leaders won't be desperate for Atiku to win because they understand it would affect Nigeria's unity so they won't support rigging in their region and coupled with BVAS, those crazy numbers that usually come from the KKK may no longer emanate.

The introduction of shishless politicking in Nigeria has come to stay. The era of inducing people to vote against their will has gone and gone for good. Nigerians are wiser now.

Don’t be surprised that in the end there might be a consensus around Obi.

Someone already told me that the cabals are backing Obi.

And when you recall that Obasanjo and Jonathan are on Obi’s side, you will realize where the cabals are.
