I should be the one asking you for your age, if you ever think that Obi will surely contribute anything positive to a new Nigeria where political vampires like David Mark and Atiku is, then you are an indomie generation by birth.

David Mark have been in the corridor of power immediately after the Nigeria civil war.
He was military governor, former Minister of communication under the military, spent 20 year's in the Senate from 1999 to 2019.
Serve as 2 time Senate President.
From 2011 to 2015, Mark was the second most powerful politician in Nigeria, yes you heard me right. Mark was more powerful and influencial than Namadi Sambo your then Vice President.
Infact in Abuja then, After Jonathan it was Mark.
Go to his village at Otukpo in Benue South, there is nothing to show for that a 2 time Senate President is from that Axis.
You expect such man to change Nigeria? Now that he is 77 years old.

If I talk about Atiku, tomorrow will come.
Obi will go into political oblivion by uniting with these men who have dark and failed political past.
Good you are also old person that means at this point I aspect we to discuss with wisdom or sense rather than sentiment or emotions. Both of us should know that Obi will never win an election presently due to the system we have.
INEC will not change nor will the electorial acts favour him.
If he dwells alone it will still be same or infact worst because this time the rigging will be so great against him. As it stand Obi only have South East votes not South South vote anymore. The PDP governors that don't know their left from right will ensure they rig for Tinubu. When you look at the coalition currently you will see that it's more of the Northern then South, so because of the force coming from the North they can persuade even APC governors to back an Atiku candidacy. So right now Atiku has better chance to win this election due to the regional politics Tinubu is playing by rallying the South for himself.
Atiku/Obi is the best combination if will really want APC out of the office.
Obi as a candidate on his own party is dead on arrival.
Same fate awaits him.

One APC Stewart told me last year that it's only coalition that can remove them from power.
Thats how they got power and that's d only way it can be taken away from them.


Only Wike will line behind Tinubu. It's over for him. Fubara will decamp to ADC and win second term.

Wike has no relevance again.
But this ADC is not really a coalition like APC. ADC has been in existence for over 20 years, so what Atiku, Obi, Amaechi, El Rufai and others have done is ordinary defection.

When serving governors were defecting to APC, people on this forum made us believe that they have only their single vote. Can we say the same for the ex-governors in the new coalition party? wink just asking for a friend
Yes nau, both serving and ex-governors have one vote.

The masses will determine the outcome of the election, which obviously will not be in favour of the useless government in power,just that you are too blind to see.

Dear Story Spinner/Publicist/ Propagandist and N10k data Boi,

The energy, skill and time used in composing this epistle is enough to write an IT code that generates over $1,000 per time.

Nigerians have moved past these stories, be productive sir.








rhythyson:
What Change are the followings bringing ⁉️

1. Atiku, after being the VP under PDP for 8 years and he started fighting his boss using PDTF money to buy cars for concubines. He has been in contest since 1993. What Change is he bringing under ADC ❓

2. El Rufai was in PDP under OBJ for years, later became a Minister and moved to join Buhari in APC and was Governor of Kaduna under APC for 8 years. He struggled to become a Minister under PBAT, under APC. What's the change that he is bringing under ADC.❓

3. Rotimi Amaechi was under Dr Odili as the Rivers State House Assembly Speaker for 8 years, Rivers Governor for 8 years before moving to APC under Buhari as a Minister for 4 years, so, what change is he bringing under ADC ❓

4. David Mark was in NASS for donkey years including being the Senate President under PDP, what change is he bringing under ADC ⁉️

5. Rauf Aregbesola was under Tinubu since 1999 under the Progressive including being a Commissioner under Tinubu for 8 years, APC Governor in Osun State for 8 years, Interior Minister under Buhari APC for 4 years. He was a leading figure shouting CHANGE in 2014 and Jonathan was chased out, what Change is he bringing under ADC ⁉️

We are watching oooooo ‼️

.. what positive change has Tinubu brought since he resume office in May 2023....but just putting Nigerians in poverty, hunger, hardship, inflation, high costs of living, high rate of unemployment, insecurity and destroyed the economy and country

An Atiku-Obi 2027 joint ticket is POssible. That's what the former LP Presidential candidate is indirectly saying.

Now come dillema of Obidients. Obi will now settle for VP position, a presidential candidate now struggling to get VP position in a party that winning is not guaranteed.
I think he is banking on getting them to agree on his one term proposal. If Atiku can step back for Obi and just play Godfather, Obi has a shot at the throne. He has the south east in his pocket 100%, and a large amount of youths from every tribe. If he can get solid northern votes, he can beat Tinubu.

Politics and ethnic jingoism aside, we, the people of Nigeria need to give Peter Obi a chance.

He will run Nigeria like a "Trader" which he said he was. This means no wastage and every kobo will be accounted for.

Corruption is the weakest link in the development of Nigeria. Obi can handle that because " Him no dey give shishi" apologies to Father Mbaka.
I will like to give him a chance too. I feel he will be unstoppable if Atiku can step aside and let him get the presidential ticket under this new party.

It will remove him. You can't rig where u are not popular. Those fake 2million votes for APC in Bornu is over. He can't win any core northern state. Even d middle belt are not happy with d security under him. East will follow Peter Obi to ADC, south south is divided. Their unpopular governors don't swing votes. The only place he can win in south west is Ondo state. As for Ekiti,once d present governor get second term,he will decamp to ADC.
What will he gain by decamping

Putinofrussia:
So some people want Tinubu to continue to bury Nigeria the way it was being done by previous govts by borrowing to pay subsidy on fuel and borrowing billion of dollars to maintain FX?
Not being able to pay workers,pensioners etc at and when due?

Only the insane will want us to go back from this temporary pain to a permanent pain one that might even cause another civil war because things are going to go very,very bad.

No institution will borrow Nigeria any money again.
FG won't be able to pay workers,pensioners,contractors etc again.
States will totally become comatose just like the FG.
There are too many horrible scenes for Nigeria and Nigerians if we continue the way Nigeria had been run for decades before Tinubu,depending on oil.

Today because of Tinubu's policies,a lot of governors are executing projects left,right and centre because they have more from FAAC.

Govs are paying their debts,some more than 80% of their debts.They are paying workers #70,000 or more without bail out except one or two that are greedy in which case NLC will give them wotowoto.

Yes,there is pain because of the removal of subsidy but it is called transition pain.
No sane mind will leave a temporary pain to a permanent pain,biko.
What kind of satinic propaganda is this ?

Which projects are they executing?


Well, your story is different from the reality on ground.

Go to any market square and say this if you won’t be stoned to death.

Am too is adopting ADC political platform because of you. You are a fresh wine that Nigeria will keep waiting for to taste it.

The biggest prayer is that this Coalition will adopt you as its flag bearer. Then election would be announced by 9am not 2am in the middle of dead night without no one jubilation.

They will still rugpull eachother towards presidential elections. When that happens , hope they won't accuse el rufai again of being a mole and working for Tilumbu.
Seems many desperate politicians that can't live their lives without being getting juicy money from government purse are the majority. When the time comes to choose the VP and the presidential candidates, if they choose atiku and obi (which happens to be formidable) respectively, that is when their true colours will come out. Best bet is for them to play a smart one against atiku because he believes no one is greater than him in that formation and will always get away with anything. Same with el rufai, but power play will still follow and many will be disappointed. Is it not Nigerian politicians? Very untrustworthy fellas.
Their method to win the next election will likely use students force and youths to instigate against the current regime and attack them in anywhere they campaign and to use their foot soldiers to destroy anything APC, but I don't think APC will release power easily like that. It will be master of all rigging and all of these collision will disintegrate easily if they fail. Then do they have matching money against APC that is in power.? Many citizens shouting now will still collect money from the highest bidder during the election and keep quiet. It's not gotten to their turn to get the piece of the cake. When time comes, they will change tunes.
This is Nigeria...Don't understand estimate the power of the governors and the local government chairmen during elections. Ex president Jonathan just allowed his own to happen because he was not a desperate politician, so they should not think it's gonna be like his own easily. Interesting times ahead.

https://x.com/PeterObi/status/1940658518060569072?t=Y3Hb963IpFDLs3EcjdMzkQ&s=19[/quote]Can someone please tell me, what ADC stands for, arre they a center left or right party?

What exactly are their core principles?

What kind of things would they focus on during their campaigns and in government based on the people they have?

Who are the young abd/or non-politicised people within their ranks that are part of the main principals of the party?

Which of Awo, Ahmadu Bello, Zik, Aminu Kano or Joseph Tarka are they disciples of?

I myself am keen on a strong opposition as PDP showed that without one, we the electorate are in trouble, however this ADC gang don't seem to be anything other than what we've had before.

Obi is now becoming too desperate.
He has forgotten his root in a hurry.
This is a man who got 6 million votes in the last election without any of these political vampires.
Why can't he stand alone, build his party and shake Nigeria again.
Desperation is not in Peter Obi’s character—what you’re seeing is strategic coalition-building, a proven approach in democracies worldwide. Winning 6 million votes was just the beginning; real change requires broader alliances to break the stranglehold of Nigeria’s failed political duopoly.

Standing alone against entrenched systems isn’t pragmatism—it’s political naivety. Even Obafemi Awolowo and Nnamdi Azikiwe forged alliances when necessary. The goal isn’t individualism; it’s liberation from the APC and PDP’s decades of decay. If collaboration weakens their grip, then it’s a step forward, not backward.

Obi’s focus remains clear: rescuing Nigeria. The methods may evolve, but the mission hasn’t.

I can assure you all that coalition will not give him the ticket. He is a minority in the party. Most of the coalition members are bedfellows and will choose among themselves. I see the coalition caving in because of ambition. This time, Atiku and Amaechi will outspend Obinto emerge victorious at the primary.
