Obi Should Start Building LP Structures Even When He Loses by seborrhic: 8:35am On Feb 26, 2023 |
The typical Nigerian politician's mindset and the operating stereotype in Nigeria is that once they lose elections after contesting under a minority party,even if the party does appreciably well and wins some seats,is for them to go quiet till the next general elections,or decamp to the ruling party at the earliest opportunity. The Labour party,primarily because of the dream that Peter obi brought,has done marvellously well in these elections,though it fell short of general victory. LP is likely going to win significant number of seats in the senate and HOR and its presence would also be registered even in areas in the North it didn't do well. That is why it's now incumbent on Obi not to do any of the following: Despair and go quiet politically Decamp to the ruling party or back to the PDP,unless to form a major alliance with it. Allow the LP to become a voiceless,timid opposition,rather than the one that would hold the incoming government of Tinubu to account for its policies.The LP should become the active voice of the Nigerian people,lest the same pains and ignored cries people suffered under the Buhari government persists. Obi should also start to form the structures of the LP using its elected members and ensure or find a strategy that ensures that those that won elections under the party, primarily due to Obi 's influence,don't decamp to the ruling party. He should not become like an Agbaje who only becomes active during Lagos Guber polls or an Atiku for example,who only thinks and plans for the presidency towards the tail end of a government. He should learn from what Tinubu has done and build on it,building structures, alliances,only that his own alliance should be with honest,determined individuals with the same mindset to grow the LP to a formidable force that will give the then ruling party a tougher fight on all fronts,come 2027. 8 Likes |

brown3:If you say so. But it's not looking like it from the overall results by local governments I am seeing coming from the far North. He may even eventually lose Lagos that showed a lot of promise when early polling unit results started coming in |

There is no structure to build. LP was an abberation. Obi should apologize and return back to the PDP then build a formidable structure within. But he has caused so much damage to himself and PDP. I'm not sure both can even recover. 1 Like |

seborrhic: You're disturbing yourself. The north will not vote for an igbo. If him like make him for atomic and molecular structure, him no go win. BTW, by 2027 he will be 65, i'm waiting to see the kind of lie he will tell the gullible youths. If Asiwaju perform excellently (I've faith he will), he's coming for second term. Then Obi's presidential ambition is over. I'm waiting for Soludo to see the kin of magic he will do with APGA. An igbo who will successfully align with the south will become president. 2 Likes |

seborrhic:The only structure OBI doesnt have is a good network of thugs, corrupt police, corrupt INEC staff, judges, military men etc.... All of these are barbaric structures. The structure Tinubu has is just the network of thugs snatching ballot boxes and disrupting elections around Lagos, Rivers state and others. Also the network of compromised INEC staff who bluntly refused to upload election results with hope of changing numbers overnight and the network of policemen / soldiers who the aid, abet and secure the riggers. 8 Likes |

Hopium:Soludo is looking like an option further down the line. But by 2031,if Tinubu wins and completes 2 terms,the North would say it's their turn and a Tinubu would be obliged to put his structures behind a consensus northern candidate. An Ibo presidency,by that scenario,can only be feasible by 2039! My only grouse and fear about a Tinubu presidency,as it's likely now,is that he is surrounded and supported by same crooks ,in different spheres,that a system should do without.His mental capacity due to age is also another fear,lest we go back to the same situation now,where a small clique of family members and cronies,rule in his name. Otherwise, ordinarily I see Tinubu being a better president than Buhari |

But LP never had party agents in thousands upon thousands of polling units, LP don't have cà ndidà tes to feature in most states of Nigeria, that's the structure, those cà ndidà tes are what will influence votes in his favor outside the influence of social media. obailala: |

seborrhic:You don't know Soludo so how is he a better option? Look bro, easterners just want a good leader. Did yaradua receive any attacks from the east? NO. Give us a conducive business environment and we're good to go. Then respect federal character in your appointments. You can bring presidency in 2080 if you like. 3 Likes |

KalakutaRepub:As at now Tinubu has won 10 LGA in Ekiti out of the 16 or thereabouts, LP don't have a chance of 25%, PDP is definitely getting 25%. It's obvious what u have been saying are all Iîes. |
