Confused man! You don't want to be running mate but you join coalition, you expect Atiku to step down for you? Atiku that is ready to die to become president.

LOL.... The guy sabi tweet their head. He is always answering off topic then he supporters will use his vague answers to make up anssers for him.

Ofunaofu:
OP, where did Peter Obi say he won’t be a running mate to anybody?


You're all afraid of an Atiku/Obi ticket that’s why you've been spreading propaganda.

Don’t worry, you’ll cry waaaaaaaaa

Another sellable candidate to replace obi should be sought after. Enough of this prideful outburst. Other names should be called up.
Who do you think is more sellable than Peter Obi?

I have searched the entire coalition structure and it feels obvious that Mr. Obi is their greatest selling point.

I don't think too many people have confidence in Atiku, Amaechi or El-Rufai.

Re: 2027: I Will Not Be A Running Mate To Anybody - Peter Obi by Henix(m): 9:24pm On Jul 06, 2025
I don't see Obi defeating Tinubu. Left for me, I will advice him not to split the opposition votes again in favor of Tinubu, as he did last time .

Atiku doesn't believe in rotation of the presidency between the north and the south. That's why he has contested every presidential election right from MKO Abiola time.
He doesnt believe but he rebel against Jonathan in 2015 raising his dick that it was the turn of the North that Jonathan should respect zoning?
Re: 2027: I Will Not Be A Running Mate To Anybody - Peter Obi by Nozarashi: 9:25pm On Jul 06, 2025
Lol.
Joining a coalition where everyone wants to be the presidential candidate without any guarantees.
6 months to the election, he'll run to another party without structure and then lament when he loses again.
A stitch in time.
Re: 2027: I Will Not Be A Running Mate To Anybody - Peter Obi by AfonjaPriest: 9:26pm On Jul 06, 2025
Atiku should rest.
For now, he's not Peter Obi's mate when it comes to running any race.
The only way he can beat Peter Obi is by using Bobo Chicago's style - grab it, snatch it and run with it.
That's fraudulent - a hallmark of a regional lifestyle.

That is why I say the coalition is not ready. They should have come up with a consensus candidate by now like APC did in 2015. Immediately APC formed, they already knew they would give Buhari the presidency (horrible decision) but then they knew what starting on the front foot would mean. If ADC had chosen a consensus candidate, their campaign will be so much easier. Obi has the ears of the people not the delegates. Hopefully they mount a credible challenge

And just like that they handed our dear Jagaban victory on a silver platter. I'm suspecting it'll be way easier this time because the Obidients will be more focused on Attacking Atiku Al Camerooni than Jagaban. All that energy they dissipate against the President will be redirected.

I hope Amechi contests as well. wink
How can Tinubu win when the north is now tired of him? Only Yorubas will vote for him and it wouldn't be enough to guarantee victory.

The people's president, we salute you!


Our serial contestant should bury his head in shame their tricks will not work this time. They want to use your name to populate ADC then they will come with a charade of a primary where Atiku and of course Amechi will roll out their stashed dollars, Atiku wins at the end and they will begin to persuade you to support the winner. From this development, Amechi will come in as VP candidate. The truth is this avaricious ambition of these two will and has failed. We are with you whether in Labour party, ADC or anyother party. You have enough time to sell yourself to Nigerian youths.

For those Agbadorians who attack you here daily, can someone tell them that the approval rate of Tinubu throughout the country has declined by 85% in the recent surveys. Most of his own people who voted him cos of tribal sentiments have come back to their senses. He will not get up to 4 million votes this time.

PDPdestroyer:
Bros why you wicked like this? Truly Mikel Obi will be a good replacement grin
The only problem is that Obi rarely keeps his word, he can get advice from his m@d m@n special adviser again to be Atiku’s VP

But on a serious note, why are Obidients scared of Obi facing Tinubu alone? He defeated him in Lagos and I believe he will do it again, many are ignorant of a clause in our constitution that a candidate can become president without winning the majority votes if he beats the top candidate twice in Lagos. That’s where we should all send our PVC like we did in 2023 to send Tinubu packing
no clause like this in the constitution at all. Na wa

ResidentSnitch:
APC always giving Peter Obi free promo.
The more you seek to bring him down instead of focusing on what Tinumbu has achieved ( if any), the more more Nigerians find out that he's the right man for the job.
I watched the interview on Channel TV and you can visibly see that Obi has no answers to the problems of Nigeria. If you do the right thing all the problems of Nigeria will go, very vague answer to a critical issue
No.1 the interview was boring, maybe because it was edited,
No 2. I see a man who is tired and looks like a drowning man politically looking so desperate for the post.
It's obvious the coalition is dead on arrival, nice try.
Re: 2027: I Will Not Be A Running Mate To Anybody - Peter Obi by obi4eze(m): 9:35pm On Jul 06, 2025
Why is APC so worried about Peter Obi?

Is it the paranoia of failure?

If their oga performed excellently, would we be talking about kicking him out?

shouldn't you be happy that your dear jagaban has been handed an easy victory instead of this sorry sob?

You guys that said he won't get 1 million votes in 2023 are saying now he divided opposition votes. Who told you I will vote for Atiku if Obi quits the race?

Atiku was the person that divided the vote.
Re: 2027: I Will Not Be A Running Mate To Anybody - Peter Obi by yemre: 9:41pm On Jul 06, 2025
Hmmm....this PO's statement here is highly political! He didn't expressly state that he would not be a running mate to anybody. He only said that "that is not in play, nobody has ever discussed that with him. People only assumed" (if I quoted him correctly).

Technically, I take it to mean that if it is discussed with me, I might consider it provided we have a good chance to win!

Again, a vibrant member of LP and a active member of ADC all in one election - presidential...and same position in the two parties in one day!!!

Maybe Nigeria will be the first country to ever experience this because I've never heard of that in the world history.

What an interesting time ahead......... It's an interesting season film.

Believe Obi at you own risk.

I don’t know what he did for me o, I don’t trust him for once but I do not hate him either. I just don’t believe in him.
Re: 2027: I Will Not Be A Running Mate To Anybody - Peter Obi by hotseat:
This man speaks from both sides of his mouth.

He can't be both a bonafide member of the LP yet, seeking for endorsement/power from another party - the ADC.


So, assuming the ADC wins the 2027 presidential election, how does it benefit the LP which he claims to belong in words but not in spirit/action?


Again, he's trying to be too clever by half by subtly telling Atiku and others in the ADC that "it's either you guys adopt me as the presidential flagbearer or I quit the coalition".


Atiku would rather drop dead than become a Vice to PO.


This their so-called coalition of power-seekers may crumble even before the election proper.


Tinubu just dey take corner eye dey look dem.


Association of OTP applicants!



Una wehdon!

Why do you like to Deceive Yourself because of your Northern interest?
Did you hear from Obi, saying he wants to be Atiku's Deputy?
Is this Atiku that the OBJ Book of ' My Watch' is down to earth freigtening that when you read the Facts,then you wouldn't mention Atiku in any Politics again!

Let Peter Obi go and rest, we in the north here do not believe in Peter Obi as a national leader, he is too pro Biafra to be entrusted this fragile nation to at this point in time, let the Igbos look for a more liberal candidate with a national appeal and present, Uzor Kali, Amaechi, Okorochas, etc

If Atiku gets the presidential ticket of the coalition and Peter Obi leaves to contest on another platform, I see Atiku winning the presidency because Obi will certainly divide Tinubu's votes in the south. Tinubu's chances in the north are already dead on arrival except he rigs it so fantastically well. Outside that, Atiku will have a field day in the north, especially with the common hatred the north now has for Tinubu
President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu contested against a sitting vice president, senate president; he contested against a sitting CBN Governor, 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!😁

Except, of course, he chooses not to run.
