₦airaland Forum

A professor of Political Science at the Osun State University, Prof Omitola Olumuyiwa, said Nigerians should watch out for Peter Obi in the 2023 Presidential elections.

Prof Omitola spoke to the Punch Newspaper on Friday concerning the chances of the four leading political parties - APC, PDP, Labour Party and NNPP.

He said, “All of them have unique strongholds; Kwankwanso will only have votes in some places in the North, maybe in Kano and a few places, because of the Kwankwasiyya movement, but he does not have a national spread.

“Obi is someone to watch out for, but the problem with Obi is that I don’t see people from the South-East voting for him. They are likely to go the way of Atiku. People will look towards Atiku because he has a better chance than Obi. However, the way Obi is going, you will be surprised that people from the South-West, the North and the South-South will vote for him. He is seen as a kind of departure from the norm.”

Peter obi is a Nigerian project , The man has been endorsed by almighty allah

We will give him all the maximum supports that he needs to win and steer this country to the path of prosperity

It is Peter Obi or nothing

Tinubu is loosing grip of his political influence in the Southwest

Money influence

Olodo professor, doesn't know south East at all. If atiku get 100k votes in South East will deactivate my account.

If you like open one billion threads on him on the social media, the reality on groumd is that he is going nowhere.

Opening threads and typing on social media is so easy to do that a single individual can open multiple accounts to post multiple threads but it is just plain stupid to think it will translate to votes especially in the rural areas and among millions not on social media or can not understand English.

He will get an equivalent of the votes to win Alimosho LGA in Lagos state.

Probably a distant 5th position in the Presidential election after Asiwaju, Atiku, Kwankwaso, Sowore if he does not quit before elections to join Atiku

There is no polling centre online and to win elections, you need structures in every of the wards in Nigeria not every social media.

You are all wasting your time and it is quite unfortunate.

Come to think of it . Take off tribe and religion . Can Peter Obi win 2023 election? It’s a big yes .

But with the present Nigeria and the real voters . Mehn . You can’t take off tribe and religion

OBi is a movement.. he should do more in the Northeast and northwest.. the locals need to catch his vibe .
North central is gradually been taken ..


Atiku 2023
Power to the people
North 2023

No abuses please..

We look forward to a new Nigeria devoid of abuses based on tribal, ethnic, religious or political inclinations.

Obi is someone to watch out for, but the problem with Obi is that I don’t see people from the South-East voting for him.

Prof i think you missed something here....is a joke for saying that south easterners will vote for Atiku

The professor that spoke is on ground, not online..

You can trace him to Osun State University.

The massive online support for Peter Obi is gradually being replicated on ground... We still have a long way to go though..

Peter Obi Nigeria walks with

They always linked his region to irrelevant.

Wike being a true PDP member thought that it's done by gra gra.....to him, "I'm greater than Peter because I've been in PDP since 1999".

Now peter Left their party jejely.

Today...... who's consulting who??.??

Brethren, in this life,please know your worth..... very important!!!!

Peter Obi must not be deterred. He must not listen to Atiku but go ahead to participate in the election to prove that Ibos are not slaves like northerners take them to be


PDP like using Ibos to achieve northern agenda. Peter Obi must refuse to be used again this time. Atiku should step down for Obi to replace him if PDP are serious with Ibos

Looking at the 3 aspirants,

I think ......... ...
