ADC: The Only Reason Obi Should Accept VP To Atiku by Amitex(op): 4:10pm On Jul 05, 2025
If Kwankwaso is not joining coalition, let Peter Obi deputize Atiku, but the Caveat that Atiku must rule for a single 4 years term. NOT NEGOTIABLE!

My reasoning is simple. If Kwankwaso joins APC, Peter Obi as presidential candidate cannot defeat them. Not that people would not like to vote for him, but APC will use Federal might and presidential might to create voter aparthy in the South through intimidation, ballot box destruction and BVAS machine snatching. From Lagos to Rivers, it would be war, with many fearing to go out to vote. The Police and army will look the other way while election materials are being destroyed. Tinubu will make sure Peter Obi does not win Lagos. The Yorubas will activate Oro and clamp down on Lekki and Amowo-Odofin areas. Even in Alimosho, where Aregbe has a big grassroot support will not be soared.

The outcome would be a lot of polling units results cancelation, while the Northern votes will be 60:40 to APC.

If Kwankwaso joins the coalition, Peter Obi should contest, he will be syre to win and be ready to leave the North to chose their candidate in 2031. That way, Tinubu would be far gone.

My friend, the North will vote for Peter Obi, but I can bet you that he cannot defeat a ticket that has Kwankwaso on it in the North. The only person that can floor Tinubu/Kwankwaso ticket in the North today is Atiku Abubakar.
An Atiku-Obi ticket will win the election by 10.00 am. Infact the APC will give up ten days to the elections because, Atiku will clear the North, whether Kwankwaso or not, while Obi will white-wash Tinubu in the South.

Obi should just accept VP for now if not the coalition will fail.

It's easy to tout the words "work for" but what does that really mean? Unless you expect them to rig the elections for Obi like Wike did in Rivers for Tinubu, then there's only so much they can do. Elections are almost impossible to rig in the North but the people have to be conversant and familiar with whom they are voting for in order to be fully invested.

In 2023, Northerners gave Tinubu 5.6m votes out of his 8.3m inspite of their son Atiku being on the ballot. The number could have been more if not for naira and fuel scarcity. It was a payback to the South for the favour done to Buhari. Unfortunately, Tinubu won, turned around and casted northern allies like Elrufai aside and betrayed northern interests in an arrogant manner.

A good way for Obi to introduce himself to the North will be to deputise Atiku. By 2031, Atiku will be too old to run anyways and Northerners would have familiarised themselves with Obi enough to return the favour and vote him in as president. It's a thing of pride to a Northerner and a religious obligation to keep one's word which is also why they pay back betrayal with equal fierceness. This is not an emotional analysis. It's reality.
Re: ADC: The Only Reason Obi Should Accept VP To Atiku by AMINDA: 4:35pm On Jul 05, 2025
Elections cannot be rigged in the North, not when the candidate is unpopular. What Wike did in Rivers can only happen in the South. Tinubu is already buying out all the Southern governors so as to replicate the Rivers template.

This is why all APC handles are expecting Peter Obi to be the ticket holder so he can be rigged out while the North looks on with indifference. Southerners will not defend his votes. The North has the advantage of numbers and they are willing to die defending their votes. Peter Obi knows this fact too but I don't think the Obidients know it yet.

And agreed on these things before agreeing to join and form this coalition!

If Obi won't emerge the flag bearer then let Tinubu continue. After all we survived Buhari's 8years, so the North should also endure what they foisted on us all.

Even all the other so called political heavyweights combine their resources together, they cannot match Atiku's dollars at the primaries. Even Wike could not match Atiku's dollars in 2022. Is it Peter Obingo, Kwankwaso, Rotimi that will now outspend Atiku in buying delegates at the conventiion?

It is because of brashness like this that made Obi hide the fact that he was in discussions with the coalition from the Obidients until the final moments. The coalition will not just handover the ticket to Obi on a platter of gold. The coalition is not solely a special purpose vehicle for the actualization of Peter Obi's ambition. Obi is not even the convener of the coalition so why Obi and why not Amaechi? Members of the coalition will weigh all factors and then make their final decisions via the conduct of a free and fair primaries.

If such a process is not suitable for the Obidients, they can go ahead to vote Tinubu. I know Obi himself will not leave. He will invariably be on the ticket whether as President or Vice. Politics is not a game of emotions or threats.
Re: ADC: The Only Reason Obi Should Accept VP To Atiku by deantimes(m): 5:17pm On Jul 05, 2025
When you finish your ranting, you will accept the truth that's on ground.

Must Atiku run with Obi? Let Atiku pick the ADC ticket and let him run with Amaechi, let's see where the both of them will end.

Bro, if your brashness didn't get you to Aso Rock in 2023, it won't even in 2027. If Obi is not getting the ticket, then let Tinubu continue, the former Anambra governor won't die if he isn't the president, Period.

Re: ADC: The Only Reason Obi Should Accept VP To Atiku by AMINDA: 5:21pm On Jul 05, 2025
After buying off all the Southsouthern governors, Tinubu is already working on causing voter apathy in the East by releasing Nnamdi Kanu. So where would Obi's bloc votes come from? If Nnamdi Kanu reaches a deal with the FG to start threatening "No referendum, no election". Can any Easterner dare him enough to come out to vote? The Northerners have an actual axe to grind with Tinubu and Tinubu holds little to no leverage over them. They just need the right motivation.

It's Obi or nothing. Atiku should go and rest. They did not plant his placenta and umbilicus in Aso rock. Must Atiku contest? Did they write his name in Aso rock? Atiku should rest Biko. Even if Tinubu like, let him release Nnamdi kanu, it's Obi or nothing

Please don't quote me again with your aggressive language. Go right ahead and do whatever that pleases you. Even if the elections become North vs South, the North will still have the advantage. That's a bitter truth. Tinubu won 5.6m votes from the North. He has since lost more than 80% of those votes and he has largely lost it to Atiku. In 2023, there was huge voter apathy in the North so that is not even the real voting strength of the North. On the other hand, no region ever won an election without alliances. Obi will remain in the coalition, you can go ahead to vote Tinubu.

No one has even said Atiku needs to run with Obi. The coalition can still proceed without Obidients. Infact, a repeat of the 3-horse race in 2027 will see Tinubu coming a distant third. This is because Obi will defeat him again convincingly in the South while he will lose majority of the 5.6m votes Northerners gave him in 2023 to Atiku. The Southwest alone cannot make Tinubu win the election but neither can Obi but Obidients are free to merge their votes with Tinubu. On the other hand, the impending release of Nnamdi Kanu means that Obi and the Southeast actually needs the coalition more than the coalition needs them. No one is in a position to be issuing threats.
Bye!
Re: ADC: The Only Reason Obi Should Accept VP To Atiku by EmperorIsaac(m): 5:50pm On Jul 05, 2025
President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu contested against a sitting senate president, he contested against a sitting CBN Governor, he contested against his party chairman, cabals in the presidency worked tirelessly against him, all efforts were made to make him lose the election but he came out victorious. Now, the same man is the sitting President and some politicians who cannot win their ward for their party feel it will be easy to send him packing? They’ve made all their moves, the master is watching and smiling. The next move by the master strategist will throw them into a total confusion. As far as I’m concerned, 2027 will be easier for PBAT than 2023. We are all here!😁

Nigeria does not belong to the north.

If others are not allowed to govern it will be better for the country to divide so north can go and form their arewa country.

Atiku sold almost all the government properties to his cronies under the guise of privitazation and u re wishing for someone like that to comeback and sell the whole country.

Either obi or tinubu we are ok for now, but never Atiku.

Your username says it all. Tinubu used religion to win election in 2023 and now attempting to use region to win in 2027 but it won't work. You don't care about the South, you just want to see your nepotistic Yoruba brother continue in power.

Please divide the country anytime you're ready. The best time to do that was yesterday and the second best time is now. If you fail to do so before Tinubu is voted out, do not even start with the agitation for Oduduwa Republic because you all will be jailed and forgotten.

Campaigning for a privitazation thief to come back and loot the remaining govt property.

A thief who promise to sell NNPC to his cronies.

A desperate 80 yrs old Cameroonian.

Did Atiku clear the North in 2023? Atiku is overly overrated even though he contested against a Southern Candidate(Tinubu) in 2023, the only states among the 19 states in the North he won convincingly were Adamawa, Gombe, Kaduna, Taraba and Bauchi.
Peter Obi despite the fact that he had no support of any governor or an existing political structure, he won all 5 South East States convincingly and 3 States in South-South like Edo, Delta, and Cross Rivers.
In North Central, Obi won Plateau, Nasarawa
and FCT.
The North does not like Atiku and Obi was the only candidate that won all the states in his region in the last Election.
For Kwankwanso, he is only popular in Kano because nobody in the North has the kind of influence Buhari has.
