Tinubu has sent him. It's a game plan.

Obi should move into PDP becomes the presidential candidate while Atiku blessed him. Look for a younger and smart candidate to be a vice president.
God bless you

If there is no merger, Tinubu's second term is assured.
Having 3 party candidates gave Tinubu a narrow win in 2023, having 4 candidates
will guarantee a massive win.

If Elrufai maintains his stance, it would mean he is indirectly working for Tinubu as
a spoiler just like Kwankwaso did in Kano for unknown reward.
It will be surprising if el- Rufai is not working for Tinubu. His moves are so clear. To start with, who owns SDP. He just took over and controlling the party and the people he met there never said a world. We are happy to watch this game in HD

That BBC Hausa interview will continue generating ripples in the political spheres shocked. Elrufai called for joining SDP or coalition. It's a short interview but very interesting. The BBC journalist asked hard question and Elrufai did well by answering him. Elrufai also blasted the so called northern elders who are known for stomach infrastructure and he knows them through the political eyes 🔥. I will likened it with Nedu's Honest Bunch Podcast.
Elrufai also called on the voters directly
APC is in disarray presently.

Rapt Hausa listeners will enjoy it more. Elrufai is a born Rebel. Tinubu has not spent two years in office but the heat is too much. They are already dragging him into campaign 😅😂🤣. Let's see how the master strategist and tamer of the Atlantic ocean 🌊 calm the situation. Bobo Chicago should come out with better policies B4 trailer will hit him, he needs to redeem his battered image because the attacks won't stop coming. Northern Islamic clerics are next to come out hard on Tinubu . Expect political attacks on VOA Muryar Amurka (USA), BBC Hausa (U.K), RFI (France), DW Radioñ Jamus(Germany)
if tinubu start campaign, nobody will hear abou6el rufai ur new Lord again, just know every region is fighting his battle, dey there dey clap for North, that's the reason igbo will never rule Nigeria

El rufai is not in full control of SDP yet until the national secretary issue is resolved.
This is why I think his move to SDP may be organic even though Tinubu might be the major beneficiary.

Contrary to popular belief, Tinubu does not own SDP.
Are there compromised pro-Tinubu people working in SDP, absolutely
but that is the case with such parties.
They exist to profit from government in power, defecting politicians and
engage in internal sabotage when encouraged to do so.
Re: El-Rufai Asks Atiku And Obi To Move To SDP by Smartwave: 9:52am On Mar 16, 2025
El-Rufai claimed he had worked hard for the emergence of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2023 due to his antecedents as governor of Lagos State, hoping the president would replicate his achievements in Lagos for Nigeria, and argued that the present administration has failed.
What's El Rufai antecedents in Kaduna Statehuh?? 8 years of Southern Kaduna blood

Soludo’s prophecy was spot on.

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.

As you are happily watching, the politicians are increasing your sadness by quietly squeezing out your meagre money to get more luxuries for themselves while failing to employ civil servants who will provide common services, facilities maintenance, utilities like water etc

How is that a sensible thing to do, instead of being engaged in the political and governance processes through various forms and advocacy huh

“The worst illiterate is the political illiterate, he doesn’t hear, doesn’t speak, nor participates in the political events.

He doesn’t know the cost of life, the price of the bean, of the fish, of the flour, of the rent, of the shoes and of the medicine, all depends on political decisions. The political illiterate is so stupid that he is proud and swells his chest saying that he hates politics.

The slowpoke doesn’t know that, from his political ignorance is born the prostitute, the abandoned child, and the worst thieves of all, the bad politician, corrupted and flunky of the national and multinational companies.”

Just make sure you are not unwittingly adding your own vote to make it easier for T-Pain to have a second term, which is what Igbo people did with almost 100% votes for Pandora Bitter Obi, in their five south eastern states!D

If they are all sensible, should they not be doing restitution for cluelessly making ebilokan continuity of APC shege possible?

I’ve told ibos this but they don’t understand. It’s not what ibos think about Obi that matters, it’s what others think of him because it is others that can make him the president not ibos. Even Orji Kalu said it that ibos have to present a candidate that is acceptable to other regions. No one can rule Nigeria without acceptance by he other regions. Obi is unacceptable by other regions and so the ibos are wasting valuable political capital and time queuing behind Obi. He is DOA!

Truth be told the APC is jittery. Any thing that allows Atiku, Obi, Kwankwaso, El Rufai to be in the same party will spell doom for APC.

APC and Tinubu cannot defeat them if they’re together.
They can not be together because, no one will submit to one another, they all want to be president, no way Tinubu will not be re elected
