If true, this is the beginning of the end of ADC.

Atiku must be working for Tinubu. grin

When we tell them it can’t work they didn’t agree with us, Atiku is greedy with power, Obi is clueless.

No party will open its card before d game, primary election will b by mid next year especially for ADC, they will delay so the agulu fraud won't run away like he did in PDP in 2022
Anything can rule Nigeria apart from that thing in APC. I support even cow to take over than APC again

SmartPolician:
If Atiku insists on contesting, it's his constitutional right. However, he should know that he cannot win the election without a strong candidate form the South. That's why he needs to work with Peter Obi.

Atiku is more likely to spend just one tenure in office because he will be 80 years by 2027 and canvas the north to vote for a Southern candidate after his tenure.
Canada which North to vote Southern candidate after his tenure? You lied on this again
Re: Atiku Rejects Southern Call To Step Down, Demands Open Primary by Softmirror:
That is what Atiku always does. He doesn't invest in any party, all he does is wait for primaries and spend heavily to win.

I saw one Obidient wrote somewhere that Atiku should take a vice position to Obi. Comment left me wondering what those people smoke in they camp.
Will he die if he deputises Obi?

As if he has ever won the presidential elections despite his serial aspirations.

Atiku's singular presence is the very reason why ADC will fail woefully.

Ayuku is clearly working for Tiunubu if he is clearly serious about this coalition stuff he should step down for obi and ameachi to battle


Ariku is an Evil man
Re: Atiku Rejects Southern Call To Step Down, Demands Open Primary by oglalasioux(m): 8:30pm On Jul 09, 2025
Obi and his supporters will not accept Obi being a running mate. Atiku will not give up his life long ambition of being president.

Dilemma of a ghost.

That’s all Tinubu needs to coast to victory.
Re: Atiku Rejects Southern Call To Step Down, Demands Open Primary by favour32(m): 8:32pm On Jul 09, 2025
ADC must be an orphan if Atiku force himself to contest.
Tinubu go get landslide victory.

What about Obi's desperation? That one n ko? They are both desperate sore losers.
Re: Atiku Rejects Southern Call To Step Down, Demands Open Primary by Baawaa(m): 8:32pm On Jul 09, 2025
He knows Obi is weightless politically,Obi will lose the primary election,he will now be crying like a baby
Re: Atiku Rejects Southern Call To Step Down, Demands Open Primary by OBALUJONES: 8:33pm On Jul 09, 2025
I blame PO for joining the coalition group, concrete agreements supposed to have been met before coming together, Atiku never want to accept and recognize zoning between north and south, while will buhari completed 8 years under APC and Atiku is having mind of hijacking the ADC ticket, to me ,I see Atiku as instrument to destroy ADC just the way he destroyed PDP. You can't come to power by force, allow OBI to be given the ticket and receive the glory

ADC presidential candidate in the last election, Dumebi Kachikwu has thrown an open challenge to the coalition to come out and tell Nigerians they are not planning to make Atiku the presidential candidate. If they do, he will support the coalition and withdraw his litigation. Since last week, they have not been able to come out to respond to him 🤣😂🤣
This "Obi or nothing" approach is not only undemocratic, it is outright tyrannical and smacks of strongarm/ blackmail tactics. It is also very likely to destroy the coalition and ensure victory for BAT.

Before n ko? Tinubu will win anyway even with the Agulu Conman as their candidate.
Re: Atiku Rejects Southern Call To Step Down, Demands Open Primary by LCling: 8:34pm On Jul 09, 2025
Atiku is working for Tinubu. ... Same one mans ambition that destroyed PDP, it's southern term or congratulations Tinubu

Only President Tinubu enjoys support across North and South regions.

Give Atiku the ticket. Tinubu wins South West, South South, North Central and gets significant votes in North East, North West and South East zones.

Give Peter Obi the ticket...Tinubu loses South East, share votes in South South and North Central, wins North West, South West, and North East.

No formula will defeat Tinubu in 2027.
grin grin grin angry angry grin grin grin grin Tinubu will always win with bullion vans not by merit.the guy is just a grabber with nothing to offer

Obidients no sabi politics grin
Re: Atiku Rejects Southern Call To Step Down, Demands Open Primary by GreatrAnalyst: 8:36pm On Jul 09, 2025
Primaries that will be dollarised right as usual?

Atiku needs to be studied for the very motives and reasons he wants to be a President. Not only him, but also all these oldies and geriatrics.
Is it a do-or-die affairs?
Re: Atiku Rejects Southern Call To Step Down, Demands Open Primary by Basic123: 8:37pm On Jul 09, 2025
Till today!...I still don't know why Igbo hate TINUBU and WIKE than ATIKU!


ATIKU gave them LAMBA that it was WIKE that prevent micro zoning to Southeast,they believed him and they started hating wike.

Now wike is out of the way,what stopped him from doing what wike prevented him from doing in 2023huh?

Do not expect a vote then from Christians from the South and the North.
We cannot have Muslim presidents ruling back to back .
So start calculating now how to get your votes to achieve the spread .

If OBI is not desperate for power ,why is he begging for ONE TERM that his slaves are mocking TINUBU with??

They are all desperate!
If he is not desperate,why is he running away from primary elections?

OBI HAS NEVER PARTICIPATED IN ANY PRIMARY ELECTION IN HIS LIFE.YET HE CALLED HIMSELF DEMOCRAT
Re: Atiku Rejects Southern Call To Step Down, Demands Open Primary by Jahwinaboy(m):
