Efforts in futile. No criminal from northern part of the country will smell that seat in the next 23 years.

If the opposition does not unite, we should know that they are not serious and no one should complain when the frog wins again.

Nigeria's former President Olusegun Obasanjo has quit the ruling People's Democratic Party (PDP) ahead of the 28 March elections, tearing up his membership card in public.

You are a wiseman.

If PDP can’t unite behind a strong candidate, then we are back to the same old scenario that led to ebilokan continuity of APC shege since 2015.

jameshankss:
Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, has said he is sure the candidate of Labour Party (LP), Mr Peter Obi, would lose the 2023 presidential election. Soludo said he would not submit to the bullying of Obi’s supporters, who recently descended on him for addressing issues in the state.

The governor made the comments in a lengthy write-up personally authored, with the title, “History Beckons, and I Will Not Be Silent (Part 1).”

Soludo said Obi was inadvertently making the pathway to victory much easier for the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, and at the same time, toying with the destiny of millions of Ndigbo.

But the chief spokesperson for the Labour Party Presidential Campaign, Yunusa Tanko, accused Soludo of being sponsored by some unknown persons to weaken the base of the party in the South-east.

The former CBN governor had been under intense attack for close to a week for dismissing Obi’s investment in the state as amounting to nothing, during a television interview.

Soludo said in the write-up, “My attention has been drawn to some of the tirades on social media following my frank response during an interview on Channels TV regarding the ‘investments’ Mr. Peter Obi claimed to have made with Anambra State revenues.

“Sadly, several of the comments left the issue of the interview to probe or suggest motives, inferred from my response on ‘investment’ that I am opposed to Peter Obi’s ambition and, therefore, committed a ‘crime’ for which the punishment is internecine abuse and harassment, even to my family.

“Everyone knows that I don’t follow the winds or one to succumb to bullies, or shy away from a good fight especially, when weighty matters of principles and future of the people are involved.”

Soludo said he had urged Obi to return to his former party, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), to actualise his presidential bid. He added that he had always told the LP candidate to his face that he was not capable of winning the 2023 presidential election, especially, under LP, which had neither a councillor nor a local government chairman.

Soludo said Obi was not just his friend, but also his brother, but despite that, they have their political differences.

He stated, “For full disclosure, let me state that Peter Obi and I are not just friends, we call ourselves ‘brothers’. But we have political differences: he left APGA for PDP after his tenure as governor, while I have remained in APGA since 2013.

“During the last two governorship elections in Anambra in 2017 and 2021, he led the PDP campaigns but APGA won landslide in both elections. By the way, in 2016, he visited and proposed that I defect to PDP and contest the 2017 election against the incumbent Willie Obiano, but I declined.

“After my victory in November 2021, he called to congratulate me, as I did to him in 2010. That is the Anambra way: we fight fiercely during campaigns but share drinks at the next social events. After all, it was the Great Zik of Africa, who taught us that in politics, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies but only permanent interests.”

Arguing that Obi’s presidential bid would only work in favour of Tinubu, Soludo said, “Indeed, if I were Asiwaju Tinubu, I would even give Peter Obi money as someone heading one of the departments of his campaign, because Obi is making Tinubu’s pathway to victory much easier by indirectly pulling down PDP.”

Obi, according to Soludo, would only deplete the votes of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and pave the path for an APC victory.

He stated, “The current fleeting frenzy, if not checked, will cost Ndigbo dearly for years. The South-east has the lowest number of votes of any region, but it is also the only region where the presidential race might be a four-way race (it is a two-way race in the other five regions) thereby, ensuring that our votes won’t count in the making of the next president of Nigeria.

PresidObi:
My own opinion is this, if they are aligning to give the presidential ticket to a man most Nigerians know that he has the capacity, the stamina and the good will and empathy to grow Nigeria into success, then the alliance should be encouraged.

But do you see any alliance that is being planned to snatch power from jagaba and give to another crook who is from a big power block and keep the country in this suffering, then I think it's a waste of time and energy. I will advice they allow Tilibu continue till he dies on the seat. No need replacing a mistake with a mistake.
only obodients talk like this. Obi or tinubu should continue.

Thats the very spirit that put us here.

Shallow and shortsighted

Tinubu will not win 2027 ,am sure northerns won't vote for him, and big shots in the country are trying to merge and remove him, unless he put back the fuel subsidy, that's the only thing that will save him, he still have 2years to do that
Bring back what subsidy? Something the political class across the divide agreed to. Obi and Atiku agreed to subsidy removal. When last did you hear any gov criticize Tinubu economic policy when they have benefited by it.? Even the only LP gov, Otti is fully in allignment with it. Its only the Masses that are against removal of subsidy, not the politicians.

Greedy and desperate like OBJ/Atiku, Yar’adua and GEJ who developed Nigeria’s economy to become the biggest in Africa?

That’s exactly the greed Nigeria needs right now
Re: 2027 Realignment: New Move Spells Out Role For Atiku, Obi, El-rufai, Kwankwaso by naijacann: 2:56pm On Feb 09, 2025
A Jonathan/Tambuwal ticket in my opinion, would be the best ticket for PDP. Nigerians will remember the good days of GEJ and vote for him. Offer Peter Obi, Kwankwasai and the rest of them formidable cabinet positions to help fix this country. In the next round, Tambuwal can take Obi as his deputy; afterwards, Obi can emerge as the Presidential candidate after Tambuwal.

Obi should contest...
Atiku too should contest.

Obi should never agree to deputize Atiku who would be 81 years by 2027.

The beignning of failure of any opposition merger is the fronting of a Northern Presidential aspirant to oust the incumbent Southern.

Though it happened before but before is not like the present.

Even deep down in their hearts, they know that nonadem can unseat that man.

They couldn’t defeat him when he was outside Aso Rock, tell me how they can unseat him as the man that wields the power.

Isn’t that clear cut clowneryhuh

The only political re-allignment that can oust Tpain and send him back to bourdilon is the coming together of Atiku, Kwankwaso, Obi, El-rufai, Fayemi, Amechi, Aregbesola and produce Obi as their presidential flagbearer and Kwankwaso as the VP. Or if Jonathan can make a come back with still Kwankwaso as the VP. If not Tpain till 2031.

Take it or leave. If don't get it, then forget about it.

What new things these realignment are bringing on the table, we all know the current hardship was cause by both fuel subsidy removal and floating of naira, which both Atiku and Obi promise to implement if voted for. Except they are returning the subsidies.

This is the best piece of news in our political space since the dawning of Y2025.

The collective task before well-meaning Nigerians from the North-West, North-East, North-Central, South-East, and South-South is to ensure T-pain vacates Aso Rock come 2027.

His kinsmen and paid political thugs have been bullying and intimidating opposing voices to the hardship and suffering brought upon Nigerians by his trial-by-error, Bolekaja economic policies, including insults on the highly revered Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, the Emir of Kano.

The "he built Lagos, he will build Nigeria" line is the biggest scam of the 21st century.

Anyways, he has just 839 days to pack his kaya and vacate the presidential villa, Aso Rock.
