That would be a masterstroke.

I pray he’s the presidential candidate

And not running mate.

An Obi/Kwankwaso ticket would be a bomb


And you think that Kwankwaso is that daft to hand his presidential party ticket to Obi Pandora? Wake up from your hallucinations pls

You cannot blame him he is the only one who saw what he saw before he resign. Our politics is not as easy as you normally say it here on nairaland. People have been telling you this but you thought otherwise

But if Tinubu happens to be the one that resigned from APC will that your opinion still be the same?

before Obi left, If PDP were to win, at best, i.e via a miracle they would win by 55%-45%....thats like a landslide which was never going to happen! However by leaving and contesting under another party, Obi has removed his supporter's votes from the PDP column as they will vote for him in the new party.... since Obi's resignation has no effect on APC votes and PDP and OBi's new party will have to share the 55% the net result is canibalise PDP votes and to hand victory to APC.
Wake up from your slumber...all he has is just online supporters which majority of them don’t even have their PVCs

No. Obi did not miss calculate. A lot of work has gone into this. By the Grace of God, Obi will be the presidential candidate and Kwakwanso Vice in Kwakwanso's party. A political earthquake is about to happen in Nigeria

Wake up from your hallucinations, in your wildest dreams you think Kwankwaso will hand over his party's presidential ticket to Obi Pandora?

Please stop mentioning wike, as if wike can win election outside Rivers state, with all the money he pump into 2019 primary, is it just for support or to become VP? Atiku can never give him VP, his too toxic, and he lacks everything a VP or president should have.

As it stands now in Nigeria Obi is a force to reckon with the youths are aligning with him, mind you he left governance since ten year or more and still relevant,. Obi might not win this forthcoming presidential election, hear this, he would be definitely making a huge impact to his political career and popularity.

Please where is Umahi today With all his senses? How many people is even talking about him?

Obi will not win next year election as president or Vice President, neither will he be a minister.

Umahi WILL NOT escape president, Vice President, or minister.

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.
And what , pray tell will a thienubu urchin, know about a subject like this?

It's unfortunate that we find ourselves in this situation. The country will continue to suffer if we still believe only APC or PDP can win elections because of structure. The country is getting what it deserves because we have not done anything to deserve otherwise.

In 2015 the country made a statement, though a bad one, with the protest vote against Dr Jonathan,s government and what we got in return is this hardship for seven years and counting. The parameters then and now is enough prove for any sane human being (inflation 6%, interest rate 8%, Exchange rate N180/$, petrol N89/ltr, debt stock N18t, unemployment rate 13%, Per capital $3,000). Compare them with what we have now! The voters made a step but the country got hardship in return.

What structure has Gen. Buhari got than the coalition of hungry northern youths and political jobbers in South West who lead the innocent south Western voters to vote blindly not considering the competence of the candidate. As if the south western voters we under spell, they still allowed themselves to be mislead again by these jobbers to return an incompetent government. This is an attestation to the fact that the elites don't vote in the country. The bottom line is, the country will get what it deserves.

Only if the voters in the country can make another step by voting PO regardless of the political party (another protest vote) can the country get a return of economic prosperity, national wealth, competitive economy and ultimately, better life.
To me PO remains the man that understands the problem of this country and has the idea of how to fix it. He is a proven wealth creator, a politician with exposure and he is equipped with mordern techniques of governance, exactly what the country needs.

I wonder what PDP is up to with the crop of politicians left to them. Best among the pack, now that PO has left, is Sen Saraki and Alhaji Atiku. These are political journey men and jobbers that are not pragmatic that will still do the will of the cabal and "draw like okro soup in governance". PDP has lost its Lifeline.
PDP has not learnt anything from the 2015 election loss, if they have they will not afford to lose someone like PO, at this time, who came to their party from APGA. If they can afford to shrink now that APC is getting filled with politicians from other parties in the country then I wonder how one of them can boast of 11m votes anymore. Almost 5m votes from the 11m votes came from PO in the last election (south east). Their loss is imminent as there is no spark anymore in that party.

APC is a party of inexperienced, old fashioned politician that finds it difficult to come up with a candidate that can win election but rather wait for PDP to select a candidate before they will match the opposition.

It is time for the voters in the country to send these two parties to Extinction and breed a new and mordern political movement in Nigeria for the progress of the country.

God bless Nigeria!

So in your thinking, kwakwaso would labour to raise a Party and give it to a total stranger as president.

Let me remind you, kwakwaso is a Fulani man and he left PDP bcoz he doesn't want to be a second fiddle.

Re: Resignation From PDP: Has Peter Obi Miscalculated? by Nobody: 9:02pm On May 25, 2022
I think he made a wise decision. Obi is not desperate to make money from being president or closer to the government of the day else he would have remained in PDP.

NNPP is a northern party or dominated by Northerners. Obi is depending on the elite masses who majority don't have a voters card. If Obi gets the Ticket which I think he will, and with a strong Northerner especially NE then he will be a formidable force because he will claim SE and SS share N and SW.
Re: Resignation From PDP: Has Peter Obi Miscalculated? by casualobserver: 9:04pm On May 25, 2022
Obi is contesting under a new party, his letter of resignation from PDP was dated 20th may and he was tweeting about the million man march and still posting poster pictures of peter Obi for president on his twitter timeline as recently as 8.am this morning...after he had resigned from PDP!!!!! He has just killed PDP and handed victory to APC..unless ofcourse APC self-implode in the next few days.
