Adesina would make a great CBN Governor. Leave the presidency for Peter Obi.

Adesina doesn’t have what it takes to rally over 6 million Nigerians in a tightly contested election. Peter Obi does and what he needs is a core northern alliance
Any politician could have used the devilish deceitful campaign against religion. Obi can't get half of the score in last election again. Very Conny man.

Nobody is in Atiku’s mind and there’s been no verifiable report anywhere that he wouldn’t want to step down his ambition for the candidate of the unified opposition especially with Obasanjo brokering the deal.

About Obi and far north votes…

The only reason Obi seemed to perform poorly in far north was because of his running mate in 2023 who was not popular with the talakawas of the north. Substitute Datti for Tambuwal with the backing of northern oligarchs who would dispatch Imams and their foot soldiers to campaign positively for Obi, and you see the sentiment change and his votes skyrocket.

Of course you know Southeast and Southsouth is Obi’s place any day, and even large part of MiddleBelt.

It will be in Atiku and north’s best interest to step down their interest for Peter Obi or Tinubu does his 8 years.
core north will never vote for Obi as presidential candidate in 2027, know this and have peace of mind. He has prove to be tribalist and religious fanatic. He hardly condemned happenings in south east but quick to do so in other zone.

Adesina is good but Peter obi has been tested in governance. I go with Peter
Adeshina was a superb minister of agriculture under Jonathan and that earn him the current position he his. In terms of performance, I will rank him higher than Obi anyday. Obi is just a Conny man. If he had performed as governor, why then some anambarians condemned him. They only supported him because of Igbo presidency project as the sole Igbo on any major party ticket.

The god of Politics is beyond all humans. Even when the former President Mumumodu Buhari and his cult group ganged up against JAGABAN using all state powers, he told them at the market square that he will be President, and it came to pass. If you couldn’t use the state’s powers to stop him, is it now that he is in control of power that you can stop him? This is the Kingmaker that made himself King.


As for the whole community cooking for him, even if the whole Africa cooks for him, he will finish the food.
Goodluck to Tinubu in 2027.

That’s the response I can give you.

As the race for 2027 gears up, alignments and realignments have continued to dominate our political space with leaders of opposition trying to unite and forge a common front to face APC in 2027.

Now, with Peter Obi’s showing in the last election coupled with the fact it’s the turn of the south, by Nigerian political convention, the pendulum seems to be swinging towards Peter Obi to be the candidate of the united opposition. Add the fact that Obasanjo seems to be sold out to the Obi project and Obasanjo is a big factor in the ongoing discussions for opposition leaders.

But the recent interview of the outgoing President of the African Development Bank (AfDB), Akinwunmi Adesina, talking about being available for any role in the future (with 2027 presidency clearly in sight) there seems to be a new bride who might be entering the race.

Ordinarily I would have taken Adesina’s interview as a no issue but knowing that he’s another guy President Obasanjo admires, I won’t be surprised if he becomes a surprise joker in the race.

But now I want to ask, who would you rather faces Tinubu as candidate of the united opposition, Peter Obi or Akinwunmi Adesina?

Re: 2027: Peter Obi Or Akinwumi Adesina? by Fiscus105(m):
IT SUPPOSED TO BE ADESINA OR IWEALA?

Adesina is far far far better than Obi, Obi only ridding on sympathy & protest Votes.( The same way the party faithful in APC compensated Tinubu, Tinubu won ticket on his past good gesture to politicians and not performance in office) Osinbajo is better than him any day any time.

Go and watch interview and achievements of Adesina, most especially the one Rufai Oseni conducted recently, you will know the guy is great leader unlike rhetoric and voodoo economy that Obi is selling to gaulible.

In the East, I will choose, Umahi Solido, Ngozi before thinking of Obi
Re: 2027: Peter Obi Or Akinwumi Adesina? by ogaemma: 3:03pm On Feb 11, 2025
I will go for Adesina.
Obi is no different from Tinubu and Atiku.
They are all the same.
Adesina cannot be qualified as a NIGERIAN politician.
Re: 2027: Peter Obi Or Akinwumi Adesina? by much123456(m): 3:03pm On Feb 11, 2025
I would prefer both of them to run. Obi for president while adeshina for vice. Of Muslim/Muslim can run why can't south/south run.

Nobody can defeat Tinubu in an election he will preside as GCFR. It was difficult to do even with Buhari as president not to talk of now.

Tinubu will rig and ask them to go to court where he will finish them off angry

To answer your question straight forward...

Peter Obi stands a better chance with the right alliances.

Adeshina is fresh and inexperienced in politics at that level. Obi already has a base he can build on.

But as for who is likely to be a better president I would pick Adeshina over Obi!
a base of not conducting local government elections arbi a base of health workers going on strike for 8 months... Which base grin

How can any serious person even compare Obi with someone like Adesina? Obi is a joke taken too far grin

With that said, Atiku dey kampe to play spoiler for all of una cheesy .

I guess it is time for Akinwunmi Adeshina to destroy himself!
He must be thinking very highly of himself because he is AfDB president!
He is welcome

So we have Adeshina before. Why bring Tinubu in the first place? So house's and igbo's will be mumu to vote another yoruba? As much as I love adesina, this is so not gonna work
