I Have Been Part Of Coalition From Day One; Attended All Meetings - Peter Obi by Penguin2(op): 1:00pm On Jun 30, 2025
Speaking on Parallel Facts X Space yesterday, Peter Obi stated that he has been part of the coalition from the first day and has attended all meetings of the coalition.

They don’t know what is coming .

Former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Mr. Peter Obi, has said he cannot tell for now what his next action would be if the proposed political coalition fails to adopt him as the presidential candidate.

This is even as he allayed the fears of his supporters concerning his role in the proposed coalition, saying he had never done anything in politics without consultation.

Obi stated this on Sunday while answering questions during a media space hosted by ParallelFact on X.

DAILY POST reports that the proposed coalition is being led by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, ex-governors Nasir El-Rufai, Rotimi Amaechi, among other political leaders.

During the media space, the former Anambra State Governor was asked what would be his next action if the proposed political coalition fails to produce him as the presidential candidate.

However, Obi said it wasn’t yet time to disclose what his next line of action will be, adding that the coalition was yet to adopt a party.

Obi said: “From day one, I have always attended every meeting of the coalition unless I travelled. Whenever I have issues, I always discuss with them. I can’t tell you the coalition is the one going to produce Peter Obi. When we reach to that stage, we discuss that.

“But the coalition is us coming together to save the country. We haven’t reached the stage we say it’s going to be this person. I believe that people who are coming together are decent people that want to work for the interest of the [country]. That’s my belief.

“And if that’s the case, I believe there will come a time all of us will sacrifice for the country. That’s how I see it. At that time, we will ensure that the best among us emerges as [candidate].

“The coalition wants to adopt a party. And we are going to do that very soon. Other parties will still join. The reason other parties have not joined is because there’s problem in their parties.

“I wish I can answer you that question, but unfortunately for now, I can’t. I know I have told you the coalition is not talking about who will be this or what. I will do what’s in the best interest of the country and what those I lead and are following me want. I don’t discuss such things on my own.

“Few times leaders have acted as if they were alone, without consultation. It’s not yet time. Now we just want to come together. For me, when that time comes, you will see, and I will consult. I will then tell what I am going to do. I have never done anything without consultation. If you were among those close to me, you would know that I consulted before I left the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP. I didn’t just wake up in the morning and say I will do this. And if I become President, I wouldn’t just go around announcing things without consultation.”

Alright, it’s better he makes his intention known.
He claims to be all out for the coalition, will he abide by the outcome of the coalition and remain with them either he is given the presidential ticket or not?

This coalition is a bunch of strange ambitious fellows hoping that other members will step down for them to contest against Asiwaju. We all know that Atiku will not step down for Obi, and if Obi steps down for Atiku, they will lose the support of the Obidients.

This is a failed coalition ab-initio.

You wish!

We know you want the coalition to fail so your Tinubu can stand a chance.

But the coalition will work and you won’t see them coming.

The coalition drivers know.

APC knows!

Tinubu knows!

You know!

We all know that if Peter Obi is not made the coalition candidate then Tinubu should prepare his second term victory speech.

But I won’t be the one to stop you from exciting yourself with whatever helps you sleep well at night.
Re: I Have Been Part Of Coalition From Day One; Attended All Meetings - Peter Obi by Gentledove2001: 5:07pm On Jun 30, 2025
I'm desperate to make Nigeria work not desperate to be president. Mr lamba, he will scarter the coalition the way he did with APGA, PDP and LP. Saint the lying machine. If them no give am ticket, he will still run away to another mushroom party. Desperado.
Re: I Have Been Part Of Coalition From Day One; Attended All Meetings - Peter Obi by id4sho(m): 6:17pm On Jun 30, 2025
The only man that can knockoff Tinubu, no time. Only if all gladiators will calm down . I foresee Southeast -Northern alliance like Shehu Shagari- Alex Ekueme Ticket (NPN) 📌👌💯
Re: I Have Been Part Of Coalition From Day One; Attended All Meetings - Peter Obi by Lanruze:
There is a detailed, planned, deliberate and well funded objective to de-market Peter Obi especially on Social Media.

In all the Opinion polls conducted by independent content creators and credible sources on X which had Peter Obi, Kwakwanso, El-rufai, Atiku, Goodluck Jonathan, Amaechi and PBAT.

Peter Obi and Goodluck Jonathan had a majority overwhelming vote score above other candidates.

Fast forward that to reality, PBAT will be given a run for his money in 2027. Unfortunately for the APC his (PO) followership is organic without the money politics type of followers.

Check all social media platforms with a huge youth adoption, it's all Peter Obi.

The major threat Obi poses are his "die-hard never say die supporters" who have stuck with him like lice in the hair without backing down.

Atiku Abubakar will play a bigger role with PO as forebearer.

THIS GUY IS DIRECTLY WORKING FOR PA. AMODA SANGODELE.

IF NOT, TELL ME WHY HE CANNOT UNITE WITH THE COALITION. INSTEAD, HE PREFERS TO SCATTER OPPOSITION VOTES LIKE HE DID IN 2023.

Keep them guessing, it's best that way to shh until it's time.

papyjaypaul:
If the coalition wants to succeed, they better take Tinubu's approach of keep them guessing. Make it look like you are confused for now, give us different fighting news and when election time comes for primaries, organize. Distract your enemy. Confuse them.
