ABUJA: Presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 Presidential election, Peter Obi, has assured his supporters at home and abroad that he will be contesting the 2027 election and is willing to do a single four-year term as president. He also dismissed speculations that he had discussed or had agreed to a joint ticket with former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.

According to a statement signed by the Spokesman of the Peter Obi Media Reach (POMR), Ibrahim Umar, in Abuja, on Monday, Obi expressed these views while speaking on Sunday night, when he appeared on X space to answer questions from his numerous supporters.

According to him, Obi acknowledged being involved in coalition talks because of his desire to rescue Nigeria from the drift by aligning with all patriotic Nigerians.

Obi said, “If the coalition is not about stopping the killings in Benue, Zamfara, how to revive our economy, how to make our industries productive, how to put food on the tables of Nigerians… Count me out. Nigeria is currently at war. We need to do something about it...

lol.

If Atiku is in the coalition, Atiku will be the candidate.

Atiku is the PDP wing of the coalition, Amaechi and Elrufai will be gunning for VP position /influencer. Obi may loose both ways or stay put in Labour Party

Before nko? Obi you like it or not you must contest 2027 presidential election

Customer daada ni. We are yet to know which story you or your supporters would tell Nigerians that they will buy

Peter Obi is casted already

lol.

Atiku is the APC wing of the coalition, Amaechi and Elrufai will be gunning for VP position /influencer. Obi may loose both ways or stay put in Labour Party

Peter obi will then run under Lp which will be a spoiler for them Atiku should chill first

This man doesn't know when to talk and when to keep quiet. Anyone can contest election in Nigeria provided you are a citizen, is your right. He keeps talking too much and people who talk too much lie too much.

Peter Obi should not let APC win the elections again like he did let by breaking up the opposition last time. ?Only a united opposition has the chances of beating APC's rigging machine in the next elections.
As for me I hate politicians. I hope someone credible and different from BAT, Atiku or that man from Agulu becomes the president of Nigeria.

Go Peter!

We are solidly behind you every step of the way!

Congratulations President Bola Tinubu
4+4=2031
God Bless President Bola Tinubu
God Bless Federal Republic of Nigeria

The people’s president, slayer of agba boys

The entire APC members dream and wake up thinking about you. They wish they will lace your shoe but NO, you are such a humble man..

Thanks for giving us hope that a better Nigeria is POssible

Good or bad 😞
Won or lose
Success or failure .

Just try your best

You will contest and lose like you did in 2023.

People are telling you to form alliance with Atiku, you are forming strong head.

Shey after you lose in 2027, you will go back to Agulu and keep quite forever except you want to be dragging presidency with the northerners in 2031.

Mob Don threaten am overnight... U must run for bola to win

Before nko? Obi you like it or not you must contest 2027 presidential election

Don't promote shady investments like HYIP, MLM on Nairaland.
18. Don't spam the forum by advertising in the wrong places or posting the same content many times.
19. Don't use alternate accou

This is well expected. There's no two ways about it. Considering his numerous supporters there is no way he wouldn't have been in the race

Peter Obi is coming
