Are you ADC 's member ?

Please face your front.

helinues:
Peter Obi must contest the ADC primary with Atiku. He must not Turkening out this time

Without money influence, Peter Obi can't even defeat ordinary Aregbesola in ADC presidential primary. Who are Peter Obi's political allies that would vote as the delegates in the ADC primary.

Where you there ?

ChiefOloye:
Funny people, Atiku pulled resources, made consultations, visited virtually everyone, including Buhari, didn't go back to his Dubai home after the 2023, (as he usually does after each defeat) he toiled spent to form ADC, but some people want him to hand the party over to them, because pitobi has 2 heads.

Is that all ?

AMINDA:
Atiku will not step down for anybody. You can go do your worst. You are scared of a party primary but you want to defeat Tinubu at the polls? Did you sign any pact with Atiku or the ADC on power rotation? Were they no Southern candidates on the ballot in 2015 and 2019? Wike was ready to become Atiku's Vice in 2023 despite 8 years of Buhari until he lost out. Don't confuse a political party's internal arrangements with another's. Wike has asked Abure to free the LP for Obi, he's welcome to contest under their banner.

Keep lamenting!!!

lamentor78:
Please under which party, this guys are wise, they want to deceive Obi to contest, so that Atiku too will contest.

Everyone knows Obi cannot be trusted

God forbid anything Tinubu or Apc beyond 2027, Amen.

Answer the question, please don't d...

helinues:
Don't be petty and do something meaningful with your time

Do you understand what was expressed or stated here? I guess yes and I do too.

Softmirror:
I no fit laugh abeg lol. This thread is just funny to me because of how it is written.

Please provide a sincere answer to the question that has been asked...?

helinues:
That's the question I should ask you Obidient. You have been creating daily monikers on this forum just to remind me about how jobless I have been.

Is daily creation of trolling monikers also a job?

Which South West? Please count me out.

helinues:
South West people don't put all their eggs in one basket. Highest votes president Tinubu can get in SW in 2027 can't be more than 65%< that's the highest

The beneficiaries of the projects and appointments, what would the opposition use to convince them not to vote for president Tinubu's reelection?

Not true

Softmirror:
I support the 'BOOTING' it has really sanitize Nairaland to a very reasonable degree.

Why this obsession to the Igbo from you? I don't get it.
This thing some of us are doing in the name of politics will surely hunt us soon or later o.

No worry e go soon shock u. Na Ghana dey press ur neck now. Shame no dey gree catch una.

Bills are coming in LASHOA after we don win 2027 election. Just dey pray make we no win ooo. Chai, Una go hear am. Just chill. Na small remain.

No Be Juju Be Dat?

A simple and lucid question was asked and you can't answer it.


Let's me rephrase it for you:
Do you want to go against the constitution of Federal Rep. of Nigeria?

helinues:
Bro, it's not only in Nigeria, in every local election anywhere in the world, there is a measure to cross check the influence of non indigenes.

That is applicable anywhere including their region. Something they can never tolerate in their region but want to let it slide in other places

Who is Apc e warriors for you. Do I look like helinues for you?

Why Atiku/Obi instead Obi/ Atiku?


Now me and you do not have any interaction...

You are a joker.

Why an Atiku/Obi Ticket in 2027 Might Be the South-East’s Closest Path to the Presidency

As Nigeria approaches another election cycle in 2027, the political permutations around zoning, power rotation, and regional equity have once again taken center stage. For the South-East, a region that has yet to produce a democratically elected president since independence, 2027 presents a critical window, but also a narrowing one.

Current Power Distribution and Zoning Logic

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a Yoruba man from the South-West, is currently in power, having assumed office in May 2023. By 2027, he would have completed his first term. Traditionally, Nigeria's informal power rotation agreement, though unwritten, tends to alternate the presidency between the North and the South every eight years.

If Tinubu seeks and wins a second term (2027–2031), then by zoning logic, power would shift back to the North until at least 2039. After that, the cycle would logically return to the South.

But here’s the catch: the South is not a monolith. The Southern region consists of three major zones:

South-West (Yoruba)
South-South (Ijaw, Itsekiri, Urhobo, etc.)
South-East (Igbo)

While the South-West (Obasanjo, 1999–2007, and now Tinubu) and the South-South (Jonathan, 2010–2015) have both had shots at the presidency, the South-East remains excluded.

If the power pendulum swings back to the North after 2027 or 2031, the next realistic opportunity for a Southern presidency could be as far as 2043, or even later, considering the likelihood of other zones wanting a turn. The South-South may argue they deserve a full 8-year tenure, having only done 5 years under Jonathan. The North Central may also push for a turn, having never produced a president.

Why an Atiku–Obi Pact Could Be a Game-Changer

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar (North-East) and former Governor Peter Obi (South-East) are two of the most prominent opposition figures from the 2023 election. In 2023, Atiku ran under the PDP and came second with about 6.9 million votes, while Obi, under the Labour Party, shocked the nation by pulling over 6.1 million votes, coming third but dominating the South-East and making inroads in Lagos, Abuja, and parts of the Middle Belt.

Both men command massive followings:

Atiku has the North-East and part of the North-West as his base.

Obi has become the political hope of the South-East and parts of the youth population nationwide.

If these two leaders could strike a clear, written and publicly endorsed agreement, where:

Atiku runs for only one term (2027–2031)
Obi is his running mate and guaranteed support for 2031 presidential ticket

Then the South-East would be strategically positioned for its best and closest shot at the presidency.

Such a deal would:

Reunify the opposition votes that were split in 2023.

Reassure the South-East electorate that their turn is not being postponed indefinitely.

Offer a win-win for both men, allowing Atiku to fulfill his long-standing ambition and retire with a legacy of facilitating regional inclusion.

Why the Ruling Party Fears a United Atiku–Obi Front


It appears that the ruling APC and President Tinubu understand the strategic threat posed by a united Atiku–Obi ticket and they are already working to prevent it. This is why there is a noticeable push by APC-aligned voices for the opposition to field a Southern candidate, especially Peter Obi. Their logic is simple: if the main opposition candidate is from the South, the North's massive voting bloc will stay loyal to Tinubu, making re-election easier.

But if Atiku, a Northern heavyweight, runs with the full support of Peter Obi and the South-East, such a ticket becomes formidable, perhaps unbeatable. That’s why APC loyalists, including figures like Nyesom Wike, Reno Omokri, and other e-warriors, are loudly opposing this potential alliance. Some even pose as “Obidients” online while subtly pushing narratives that pit Obi against Atiku, all in a bid to prevent the merger. Their goal is simple: divide the opposition and conquer again in 2027.

Electoral Arithmetic Supports It

Let’s look at 2023 figures for context:
Combined Atiku and Obi votes in 2023 = 13 million.

Tinubu won with 8.7 million votes

If they had run together with a united platform and party, they likely would have overtaken Tinubu comfortably. This makes the alliance not just morally appealing for justice and equity, but also mathematically feasible.

Why Time is Running Out for the South-East.

If this window is missed, and Tinubu wins again in 2027:

The North will likely produce the next president (2031–2039).

The South-South or North-Central may also seek their turn (2039–2047).

This could delay the South-East’s chances until 2051 or beyond, nearly three decades from now.

In Nigeria's fast-changing political terrain, nothing is guaranteed, especially that far into the future.

Conclusion: The Strategic Path Forward

The 2027 Atiku–Obi ticket built on a single-term agreement and a handover plan to the South-East may be the most realistic and closest path for the Igbo presidency. Not just for symbolism, but for historical justice and national unity.

Whether the political elite in both camps will be humble and wise enough to see this rare alignment of stars remains to be seen.

... to you because you can not be trusted.

Everybody is not you. If the majority of Nigeria politicians lie a lot that doesn't mean that there are not few with integrity and Peter Obi is one ...

Slimani:
Personally, I don't think Peter Obi's single term proposal makes any sense.

Of all people, why should he be the one to compromise his ambition and limit his tenure to just 4 years if he wins?

I think this move puts him in a box and potentially, a dilemma in the future if he performs very well and is compelled by the populace to continue for another tenure, which will then be a breach of his proposed agreement.

I believe he should contest based on his competence as a candidate looking to serve for a complete 8 years. If he doesn't perform well in his first tenure, then he should be voted out.

I don't want to hear that sly narrative that the south must complete their 8 years, because there is no 8 years reserved for the south. There is no 8 years reserved for any region, and there is no 8 years reserved for Tinubu.

In fact, by calculation, it is the North that is owed a single tenure.

Here's what history says:

Obj (South) - 8 years
Yaradua (North) - ~ 4 years
Jonathan (South) - ~ 4 years
Buhari (North) - 8 years
Tinubu (South) - 4 years (potentially)

Total - South: 16 years, North: 12 years


If anyone should be proposing a single tenure, then it should be that:

Tinubu will do only 4 years and in 2027 allow a Northerner to do only 4 years, then the equation balances.

Right now, if there's any candidate proposing a single tenure, then it should be a Northern candidate. Maybe Atiku or Kwankwaso.

Nigeria doesn't owe Tinubu 8 years of Presidency. With Tinubu's first tenure of 4 years, in 2027 the South would have ruled for 16 years.

If the presidency is to be shared turn by turn, then Tinubu has to step down in 2027 in the spirit of equity and allow the North a single tenure of 4 years to complete their 16 years also.

But then, as Nigeria is right now, the country is in dire need of purposeful leadership. Our concern right now shouldn't be whose turn it is, but which candidate is more competent to offer a purposeful leadership that'll pull Nigeria out of its current mess.

In my opinion, that candidate is Peter Obi and he shouldn't be put in a box!

OBI only interested in donating to Christians

You can donate to the Muslims and I will follow suit with my fellow traditionalists.
Capishey?

Fact

Aaaaaaaaaaaaappppppppppccccccccccccc

He is not interested so look front.

Thegoodone13:
If Jonathan contest in 2027, he will win the election. 100% sure.

We want an Igbo man to taste the presidency and you are here pushing Jonathan.
It seems you people hate fairness in this Nigeria.

What do I even know?


Modified*
Does Jonathan is interested in all this silly permutation.
Did you hear what Jonathan said about Buhari and the North' hate for him ?

Shey the North or whoever is pushing this narrative dey whin me ney?

Jonathan that I know is no interested to return there so NORTH/ Northerners look front.

Very well said.

I need more characters, please Seun over to you.

casualobserver:
this is the problem.

1) a law has been passed to allow traditional rulers to be buried according to their beliefs..that in itself is where the assault on our culture was committed.
2) traditional rulers are governed by state law

personally,
1) traditional rulers in Nigeria are a pointless institution. What traditions are they upholding, they communicate in English and have abandoned the traditional religions. they have no legal powers over their "domains" and are employees of the state. What exactly is the point of them if they cannot up[hold the tradions they are there to uphold?
2) you know what you are getting into when you become a king, if you are not ready for the consequences dont go there.

its not by force to be a King/Oba

Likely true, but he heard the call (tradition and culture) and he Awujale accepted it. So bad for the king but who knows what he is face there now ?

GorillaApp:
This is a lost cause. If the late monarch left instructions on how he should be buried, nothing anyone can do about it.

Go after them and stop telling us.

Seun O. over to you.

As Yoruba woman I vote in Peter Obi again and again over Tinubu.

favor914:
why some of u Ndigbos keep deceiving yaself I always wonder? Nigerians will vote out a sitting Yoruba president from the south west to replace him with an Igbo businessman turned politician from the south east?

This is the height of fallacious disillusion.

Lies.







One a born again Inec can save Nigeria from Tinubu/Apc riggings

Babamide:
Anything different from an Atiku/Obi ticket and coalition has failed.
Atiku would not step down for anyone and Obi cannot agree to a 4 year single term.
Atiku/Obi is the only ticket that can beat Tinubu. Any other combination would ruin the coalition movement and break the votes up into atleast 6 different candidates.

Go to channels and listen to the interview yourself and stop being blinded by hatred.

And stop all the propagandas.

RealityKings1:
You reported issues about the port to who?
Then who gave the instructions to decongest the ports?


Haaba now, its like being a minister under a President and saying you don't work for the administration.

You said nothing.

Seun O, oya over to you. 40 ch. compl.

EmperorIsaac:
President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu contested against a sitting vice president, senate president; he contested against a sitting CBN Governor, against his party chairman; cabals in the presidency worked tirelessly against him, all efforts were made to make him lose the election but he came out victorious. Now, the same man is the sitting President and some politicians who cannot win their ward for their party feel it will be easy to send him packing? They’ve made all their moves, the master is watching and smiling. The next move by the master strategist will throw them into a total confusion. As far as I’m concerned, 2027 will be easier for PBAT than 2023. We are all here!😁

Except, of course, he chooses not to run.
