Peter Obi will be the presidential candidate of the coalition in 2027.

No tears of people of corn, no matter how salty, can change this.

Peter Obi is coming!

mrrandomguy:
This is the false hope they have been selling you and you keep buying every 4 years. By the way, how can somebody in his reasonable mind refer to something that has not occur as a fact? How?

What is the false hope?

That Peter Obi is oceans and mountains apart from Buhari in all ramifications or what?

What is the false hope?

With schools in Abuja shutdown for weeks due to teachers protesting non-payment of their salary, Tinubu ignored that and went offering scholarship to school children in another country.

Political masterstroke?

I have consistently maintained that our underdevelopment is due to Leadership failure.

It is heartbreaking that our President, who is the leader of a country with the highest number of out of school children in the world and with the students in the capital of his own nation Abuja presently not attending schools, would travel to St. Lucia and offer scholarships to children there, while his own country’s education system is in ruins, and even currently his nation’s capital, the Federal Capital Territory, the supposed seat of governance, have public schools shut down and closed for months.

This is not leadership, it is negligence at its peak. It is an act of betrayal against the Nigerian child.

Nigeria has approximately 20 million children out of school, according to UNICEF, the highest number globally, with a literacy rate of under 60% far below the global average of 87%. Similarly, the life expectancy stands at a mere 54 years, out of the global average measurement of above 70 years, one of the lowest in the world.

On Human Development Index (HDI), which is the most critical measure of development, Nigeria is ranked in the "Low Category" at 161 out of 193 countries measured, while St. Lucia, a Caribbean nation, has a literacy rate of over 90% which is above the global average of 87%.

In life expectancy of more than 72 years, which is within the global average.

On HDI which Nigeria is in the Low category, they air in the "High Category"

So tell me, what sense does it make that a president of a country with such terrible and dire statistics would travel to a country with better indexes of development especially in education and still offer them scholarships funded by Nigerian taxpayers when Nigeria children are largely out of school and the teachers not yet paid for months?

Mr. President, by offering St Lucia students a scholarship, shows he knows how important education is, while depriving Nigerian students of the same access to education.

We must, as a nation, reject these continued normalisations of misplaced priorities and build a better nation for us and our children.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

mrrandomguy:
The average Nigerian including you can never and will never learn. A similar template of coalition was used against GEJ. What happened thereafter? Has Nigeria become like Dubai? I will keep saying it even if they try to silence me, that this whole thing of "we are trying to save Nigeria" is nothing but a scam. These people just want power and the opportunity to plunder the country. The first step forward is a sovereign national conference and a people's constitution. Anything short is just like running around in a circle.

But the problem with people like you however, is that you seem to be incapable of separating facts.

Would you liken a government that would be led by Peter Obi for instance with the government that was led by a character like Buhari?

Lol!

Watch and see how children of corn will call the Sultan IPOB.

Una think say the coalition na only politicians dey run am.

Y’all are gonna learn, and learn the hard way.

If it’s when we still had a Supreme Court, this type of news would have created tension. But now, we already know what the judgment will be.

Meanwhile, what’s happening to PDP governor’s suit against Tinubu’s State of Emergency in Rivers?

Ikaeniyan0:
Peter 0bi will never become the president of Nigeria.

Stop running around every thread on Nairaland crying.

richmond500:
Obi owns 90% southeast, a 40% of SS and 20% of SW.
But I think if he doesn't join the coalition, he will lose grip of the SS and SW as many are rather invested in unseating APC that becoming Obidient

If Obi owns 40% of Southsouth, then who owns the remaining 60%?

I don’t really know how you guys see these things.

That’s how we were telling you in 2023 that Obi will win Delta even with Okowa as Atiku’s running mate but you doubted us.

Now you are here allocating 60% of Southsouth votes to Tinubu?

Bigchris01:
Forcing their hand to allow Igbos rule is a good thing if the Igbo’s can achieve that but to me disintegration is the only way to fix the problem of this country, everyone should have their region and manage their resources Nigeria democratic system isn’t working let’s not deceive ourselves, this isn’t how the rest of the world practice’s democracy

Between an Igbo man being president and Igbos getting Biafra, which do you think is easier?

Bigchris01:
I’m a strong supporter of Peter Obi I advocate for a better Nigeria and a better future for our country but I will advise Obi to never contest for election again because the country kicks against the Igbo to rule based on Biafra war so many politicians knows the truth that Obi is more competent than Tinubu but they choose to suffer rather than to let Igbo rule the country, those who are here swearing with their lives that Peter Obi will not rule the country will still suffer another 4yrs from this APC govt but guess what? Obi is a billionaire he can never suffer don’t think you are doing him y’all taking part in destroying your own country Las las na una go suffer and cry pass Ebi kpa mi people 😂😂😂

I understand where you are coming from but I will tell you what I’ve always told Fergie001.

Igbos cannot wait until Nigeria is ready to hand them power. We have to force their hands. We have to sandwich them until they have no option than to allow Igbo man rule.

Or you suggest we rather fold our hands until they call us to come and take?

Shawarmagirl:
Of course they will tell you yes and show you the manipulated rigged result. If not for Wike attempt, Obi results would have been 90/10.

Exactly!

Na why I dey ask them whether dem get confidence say Tinubu go win am again in 2027. I want to see them lie to themselves.

sreamsense:
Should I say labour party won it, so that you can be happy? Your best lawyers contested that of rivers election carrying big loads on their heads in and out of the court, and yet couldn't find anything to prove Labour party won it. If APC should not count rivers as strong hold, is it LP with empty members that will count it?You guys made empty noises like this in 2023 with fake statistics, yet; it doesn't change Obi 3rd position to 2nd. Obi is just going into election for show up, is not yet his election year. Tell him not to waste his money

Forget what INEC said, forget what the courts ruled, do you truly believe in the inside of you that Tinubu won Rivers in 2023 and he will win it again in 2027?

NgeneUkwenu:
Coalition of Northern Fraudsters, Who Can't Endure Four Years Out of power.

Things to note before the usual emotional tribe get their hopes high:

South West- There's no state Atiku can get up to 10% of the votes.

South South- There is no state as presently constituted, that Atiku can get up to 10% of votes cast.

South East: There is not state here, Atiku will see up to 10% of the votes cast.

NORTH Central; With the exception of Taraba and Niger states( Where Atiku can get up to 25% of the votes) there is nothing for him in this Zone.

North West and North East ( Atiku will win handsomely here with born to rule mentality of the hausa fulani,) but that wont be enough to compete with Tinubu when the Numbers are added.

SUMMARY:
Atiku will only make 25% in about 15 states, while Tinubu is projected to make at least 25% in 32 states and Abuja!

So who will win southeast and Southsouth? Tinubu?

Lithiumite:
There has always been hunger in the land.....Buhari won 2nd term with hunger and insecurity pervading the land.....votes are even easier to buy now than it was in 2015.....forget all the obidients noise in the urban centers,the real magic happens in the rural far to reach areas,how would obidients counter vote buying and under age voting in far away Katsina or Kano or deep in cross rivers jungles.

Nigerian politics is still majorly driven by the elites and they always have a say over the masses that does the voting......APC was able to proof that with Buhari in 2015 and tinubu had the majority elite consensus in 23.

That’s why there’s a coalition coming. So that areas where Obidients can’t reach, the rest of the members of the coalition will police there.

Obidients will no longer do the job alone in 2027. So, don’t bank on it.

Ggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg

Lithiumite:
You have political heavy weights in the north and kwakwanso can be at oar with atiku if he were in a party like pdp but he still did great with is small Nnpp...it's funny how obidients think obi would get more votes than he did in 2023.... What you guys always forget is that the dynamics would be different in 2027 and so many factors would come to bear.

Power of incumbency,money and ability to galvanise support across class and ethnic lines,religion and tribalism....tinubu would still have far more appeal to any northerner than obi anytime anyday just for being Muslim and he would have far more support in his region than he did in 2023.....the battle ground are the swing states like Parts of NC and SS and many of this places especially the SS many factors that worked against the APC in 2923 won't be there In 2027.....it's obvious 2027 won't be a 2 horse race and that would work greatly in Tinubu's favour, everyone would hold their regions tight and any where your opponent is winning just try to keep the margin as tight as possible,that was how tinubu was able to beat atiku because states atiku won,he came second with very narrow margin, Katsina was just about 5k difference and even 4k in other places

It's same way obi wou6also loose votes if he decides to work with atiku rather than going it alone.... The opposition have a bigger dilemma because tinubu already knows his weaknesses and is already doing everything to work on that

In all of your permutations, you didn’t factor in the hunger in the land and the general disenchantment with Tinubu.

Oh! That doesn’t matter abi?

And hey, Obi’s political stock hasn’t changed one bit.

highchief1:
God bless u.God will really really bless u.u are an in-depth analyst.i don talk tire them no Dey hear.im a deltan.if sherif open em moith tell me to vote tinubu I go slap am.im not in his pay roll so how can he sway me.amd guess what?sherrif has less than 5k Aides and less than 200 elected officials.How do people think when a gov moves the entire state has moved.i no understand.I like d way u said Obi can lose his love in less than 24hrs with one miscalculation.i really enjoyed ur words

Thank you my dear!

And it’s also good to see someone on ground corroborate what I said.

Unfortunately this Yoruba people that have never passed Ore will sit in Ogbomoso and think they know us.

But make we leave them make dem dey mumu themselves sha.

Front0lane:
What is there to demarket about a pandora criminal caught looting N250 million to his house in Apapa on a Sunday frpm Anambra. Is this not same Obi that accepted appointment from the murderer Abacha while Abacha killed MKO Abiola winner of June 12, his wife Kudirat Abiola, Alfred Rewane etc

So, since 2022, the only thing you lots have against Obi is moving 250million naira and nothing more?

It’s only a robot 🤖 that doesn’t get tired of this sort of repetition. WTF!

aswani:
To answer your question, Rivers state in 2023 was a hard fought state that President Tinubu won handsomely and cleanly. To re-emphasise. It was hard fought and eventually won cleanly and fairly.

Kudos to him as Victor and commiserations to both Mr Peter Obi and His excellency Alhaji Atiku Abubakar for a worthy fight albeit one that ended in a painful loss.

SeeWahala and the few other people that bother to read his posts should note that my acknowledging of President Tinubu's victory in Rivers state by me does not suggest I ever have or will support him.

However of course, the aforementioned SeeWahala is free to believe whatever bunkum he wants, after all, this is a poster that wouldn't allow Mrs Obi any time on Peter's throttle with the way he monopolises it. What a shame.

So, if you were Tinubu’s strategist, you will be strategising for 2027 and boldly counting Rivers as one of the states he won in 2027?

benardtotti:
You guys underrated Tinubu when he was not in office , again you guys are underestimating him again now that he has power, intelligence report daily and most opposition members are joining his party , I will wait till after elections in 2027 to remind you of this post , tinubu has not lost a personal political battle since 1990 and you guys still underrate him ? Infact I don't know what else to say, SMH.

What I can tell you is that there’s always a first time.

Meanwhile, he lost in Osun.

Ikaeniyan0:
Whether you guys like it or not, Peter 0bi will never become the president of Nigeria

Na so!

We here you.

You would rather vote for Tinubu and queue for bread than vote Obi and be handed the bakery.

We know how bad the slavery is.

Veteran Nollywood actor, producer and director, Ugezu J. Ugezu has stated that accepting the job to demarket Peter Obi is currently the most dangerous job in Nigeria.

Well, I can’t help but agree. Even those doing it know that they are barely hanging on a thread.

Ask Reno and resident Nairaland corns na.

madridguy:
President Tinubu won Rivers state easily and successfully.

Okay then!

Tell Tinubu to work with that statistics for 2027.

You hear?

Ayo25:
How is Obi more popular than Tinubu in Tinubus region?

Una no dey read.

He said Obi is more popular in Southwest than Tinubu is popular in Southeast.

This expression shouldn’t be difficult to understand naaa!

Is it that bad?

Kwankwaso is more popular than Shettima by far!

And Kwankwaso’s state alone can almost cancel out what opposition candidate can muster in the entire Northeast (Shettima’s zone).

But the big question is, will Kano voters vote for a Tinubu/Kwankwaso ticket just because Kwankwaso defected to APC? Are Kano voters that daft? I guess not.

It’s like expecting Ndi Anambra or Southeast to vote for Tinubu because Peter Obi defected to APC. Because as popular as Peter Obi is, one wrong step will kill all of his popularity in the entire Southeast in 24hrs.

But maybe it’s not like that in Kano. Maybe Kano people are easily led by their noses and told where to thumbprint.

But all this simply betrays one thing - that Tinubu is scared to his pampers. While his supporters litter here saying things to excite themselves, Tinubu knows that the reality on ground says something different.

In 2027, those defecting to APC won’t attract much votes to Tinubu; especially in the Southsouth. You would be daft to think Tinubu will win Delta because the governor defected.

Sometimes when we are making projections, you will hear Tinubu supporters cite figures and facts that we know how they came about.

But it betrays reality. Because if they keep losing sight of reality then a shocker waits for them in 2027.

Because as the preparation for 2027 heats up, Tinubu supporters are already counting their strongholds or sometimes they count they bigfish that they have ‘signed’ who will replicate the “Rivers Template” in his locality.

But it’s funny because it’s like saying that after Arsenal won Manchester United through corner kicks, Manchester United will not prepare against Arsenal’s plan of using same cornerkick against them in their season opener in the oncoming season. That will be foolishness.

So, between us, we know Tinubu did not win Rivers but they conjured up numbers and gave to Tinubu. Same thing happened pan-Nigeria; even in Lagos where he barely scored over 100k votes but was later assigned over 500k votes. But I will not be the one to stop Tinubu supporters from exciting themselves by thinking the “Rivers Template” will be replicated across Nigeria in 2027 and Nigeria will just siddon dey look. I laff!

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

They will be pissing in their pants.

They swore the coalition will not work but over work dey worry the coalition like this.

I repeat what I’ve always said, in 2027, Tinubu will be smoked out of Aso Rock.

Coolgent:
I swear to God Kwankwaso will not garner any meaningful votes for Tinubu.
Northern Governors are really afraid to start marketing Tinubu to northerners for fear of unknown

Lol! I’m not a northerner but I know how their minds work. And that’s why I can say to some extent that Tinubu is done with in the north.

And it will be so bad that he can’t even buy votes.

Nonexisting1:
They don't pretend, they are only holding on to their mandate of BRING DOWN PETER OBI. The online cretins haven't been able to do that which is why Tinubu boys recruited a professional propagandist, Rino Omockery but he too has failed because Obi is frustrating him with silence. Peter knows that propagandist thrive on attention so he is really suffocating Reno.

Lol! That thing dey pain Reno eh!

And I do hope Peter Obi never replies him.

phemray:
Most people are making mistakes of comparing this coalition with that of 2014 when strong political parties were merged. Also, I can say it, that it worked then because jagaban was involved. Now let see wether all coalition can just work like that. Is the coalition with parties or coalition of Individuals.
Moreso, what exactly are they coming to do? To reverse all the APC policies and throw Nigerians to another crisis? Only the process will take another 4 years with legislation. It can't work.

We will come back to this by March, 2027.

Shall we?

Does Wike own PDP?
