Oga rest! The north may not trust but other regions does not align with that mindset. Nigeria has seen what the north gave in it over 65 years old forced but failed nationhood.
Kiss the truth! No be by fight.

TimeManager:
From observation, the north are even the biggest critics of the coalition. They speak not only from the point of facts but also from sentiments. Atiku and Obi are different sides of the same coin, the sentiments against Atiku in the north is as much as the sentiments against Obi in the south. There's no pathway to victory for either of them whether they run on a joint ticket or individually.

-Kiss the truth!
Truth kisser. Why are you too desperate to twist the real story?

PDP will support APC this time around to bury any threat coming from the coalition.

Apart from that Atiku has not demonstrated smartness in any of activities in the past either as a part of government or as a party leader.

It would be disastrous to vote someone who is unable to resolve ordinary party squabbles.
When the key members of PDP are moving to the coalition!! Oga stop trying to cover the real thing happening.

If you tell some people on Niaraland that we might have probably stucked with Tinubu till 2031, they will quickly tag you as his supporter. Every good political analyst know that the present political arrangement does not favour coalition at all.

Atiku/Obi ticket, southerners and North Central will most likely align with Tinubu second term, not because they like him but because of Atiku a Fulani after 8 years of Buhari( another Fulani man).

Obi/El rufai, with this ticket Tinubu doesn't even need to campaign again. He will get enough votes from the North and entire South (except south east).
Why are you people too desperate alter people's opinions and prevent people from knowing the truth?

Lol, I dey laugh, the kolision of confusion think they can be like APC merger of 2014 😂. I have never seen a coalition that is facing more backlash like this one. Coalition of political Idp.

That is what the across niger boys don't know. Pdp is divided, Atiku and some left for ADC. Tinubu will reach out to the other faction and made a promise to them and they will end up adopting him. Politician like that Sanni knows what he is talking. No pdp governor is willing to join unlike in 2015.
PDP is not divided, they have all moved to ADC. There is no structure left in PDP anymore. So there is nothing for Tinubu to reach out to.

As for governor joining, it will shock you how some APC governors will port to ADC in 2027.

The big question are

How many northerners have died due to insecurity since Tinubu took over

How much was Mr sani paid to peddle propaganda for the ruling party just like the Renos and bwalas of this country

Is there any other thing that can come out of Tinubu aside Hunger, bigotry, corruption and poverty
how many northerners died due to insecurity during PMB, GEJ and OBJ years in power?

This is the brutal truth cc penguin, Fergie,svoboda,Aminda
Oh, its not brutal truth that, despite spending so much on campaigns, the samefaith ticket arrangee, inducement of voters in the north, tinubu still couldn't pull the northern vote convincingly? Dey play. I just pray atiku steps down and Obi is supported for the ticket cos atiku will lose again, should he come out. North can't rescue him as south must complete 8 years whether they like it or not. Elrufai will do the needed little job in the north cos that's all obi needs to win convincingly even if the inec seeks to favour tinubu same way they did in.2023, the effect won't be much felt. All odds are against tinubu right now cos ahead of the 2023 elections, some people saw him.as Mr magician and the older architect of lagos as she had claimed so, it won't be business as usual.

The question all of you guys should be asking is, why is there so much noise about Obi and not atiku and others? Think about it.
Re: 2027: North Doesn’t Trust Peter Obi, Atiku Can’t Defeat Tinubu – Anthony Sani by Inosky: 6:35am On Jul 18, 2025
Obi has more relevance than Atiku even in the north, especially among the enlightened people of the north. He's also most popular person in the entire south. I see no reason if we make sure Tinubu's thug don't infiltrate our polling boot and INEC don't rig the election for Tinubu, how Tinubu is going to win the election. Well, Hunger and broken dreams never tire a lot of Nigerians...lobatan.

Am not tribalistic. But,what I noticed since I have been a kid is that the hausa/Fulani feel comfortable with the Yorubas than the Igbos.

Also, the Igbos don't feel comfortable with any other tribe other than themselves in everything.


It's really difficult for anyone from d region to sell Nationally. Obi should settle for VP to build the trust.

Now Shetima stake is high Nationally. He has shown d calmness and maturity. Have begin to like him though their government perform poorly.
Re: 2027: North Doesn’t Trust Peter Obi, Atiku Can’t Defeat Tinubu – Anthony Sani by heysquare(m): 6:46am On Jul 18, 2025
Not only Obi including the entire Ibos! They will rather go with the South South than the Easterners. Ibos only love themselves and still want or demand love from other tribes while hating them. They only pretend to love you when they need you or supporting their ideology. The moment you're not in the same page with them they start attacking you. Except Ibos change their attitude for real it will be very hard for them to produce a president.

Re: 2027: North Doesn’t Trust Peter Obi, Atiku Can’t Defeat Tinubu – Anthony Sani by fineboynl(m): 6:49am On Jul 18, 2025
Atiku is a big problem. He blows the chance of pdp last election. He doesn't respect zoning nor does he know how to make calculations.

Even if obi run as vice with atiku. The ticket will not sell in the south as it should be.

Saying that obi should be vice in last election is the same thing the north did to Jonathan.

lionshare:
Even if they merge on a ticket, can they win Kwara state in 2027? I’m almost certain they can’t, and for obvious reasons. By the way, it appears whoever wins that state tends to win the election. Besides, what’s their chance of winning population centers like Lagos, Kano, Kaduna, Katsina, Oyo, and Rivers? Lastly, the religious sentiment that attracted North Central and Christians to the Labour Party is off the table because it’s quite obvious, even to the blind, that the current APC leadership is more pro-Christian than even some Christian-led administrations.
The issue on ground isn't about religion but sufferings of the masses. Things have never been so bad in Nigeria, except you want to lie to yourself. Even those who supported tinubu in 2023, thinking he'd perform magic have been disappointed. Obi doesn't need to win kwara. the 25% is fine, which he can easily get. Quote me later. Without Makinde, tinubu would have lost Oyo woefully. Makinde worked so hard for him there. I don't see that happening again cos there's nothing he or any oyo politician can use as a campaign tool for tinubu as it stands. Obi did well in oyo, go and rewind the scenes. He will do much better this time and generally.

Did you hear what the CPC bloc are saying right now? Read the news.

Honestly Atiku not picking Wike was where I confirmed he is dumb. To make matters worse he picked Okowa, okowa for what exactly...how many registered voters are there in delta state to start with. That man Atiku is a clear example of big money no strategy no plan. The only strategy is just to pay to pay your way out of everything

KEVIND:
Oga Buhari is dead & gone. Nothing like Buhari’s supporters will support Tinubu because they would not like to betray Buhari. The core North don't believe in that philosophy.

One thing you need to know is that the core North will never be patient for Tinubu to Finish is second term. They had never & will never trust any region, whether its South east, South South, North central or South west.
If they have their way , they'll want to rule Nigeria forever.
They believe they're born to rule OTHERS.
The North is not monolithic.

Atiku is despised in the North West and North Central. Even in his North East, politicians there are fed up of him blocking and delaying their path to Presidency, he has to pay a lot of money to continue to fuel his campaign.

I also think Peter Obí and his overwhelming Ndigbo votes last time out has been noted by other geo political zones and might be used against him in whatever ticket he is part of in 2027. That albatross around his neck needs shifting.

This one is still stuck in the 1970s political permutations, will I blame him? No! Because he is of the old era and so he lacks the indepth knowledge of the new era politics of today.


Atiku has already been adopted as next Northern political Messiah after Buhari.


Atiku-Obi will defeat Tinubu hands down.

Obi-El Rufai can still work but 2027 Presidential election is not just about winning at the polling units, it's beyond that, after people have voted for you to win, can you defend and protect their votes against an incumbent President's rigging mercenaries until the results are announced? That is where I have issue with Obi being the flag bearer of the coalition ticket.


Peter Obi that I know is a man of peace and obeys rule of law to the core, his Obidient Movement supporters are enlightened youths who just want positive change in Nigeria's leadership and most of us are fully engaged/employed, we don't have time for physical street fight and thug war, Igbos another Peter Obi's support base are too refined, enlightened and republican in nature to engage in street fight or confrontation to protect Peter Obi's electoral victory at the polling units, that was the same reason Obi got rigged out in 2023; nobody to fight and defend his victory, so the incumbent government via INEC then helped Tinubu to carry the day, and Supreme Court upheld the electoral robbery.


If Peter Obi fly the coalition ticket, the same thing will happen because Northerners that have the street OT to defend their preferred candidate's votes won't put body since Peter Obi isn't from the North, the will be neutral expecting Igbos to lead the revolt should Tinubu attempt to rig the results.


But if Atiku flies the coalition ticket with Obi as running mate, it is game over for Bola Tinubu and APC and everybody including Tinubu knows this and that is what they will work so hard to ensure it doesn't happen by using different media publications and newspaper headlines like this to confuse Peter Obi not to deputize Atiku, Obi and Obidient Movement must not allow Tinubu and his political mercenaries to succeed. Swallow your pride, work with Atiku and let's unseat Tinubu first. I trust Atiku more than any other Nigerian politician after Peter Obi, Atiku won't be as horrible as the incumbent President now.
why didn't obi allowed the change when he governed anambra

you're analysing politics with emotions and ethnicity consciousness but politicking doesn't run like that


PDP stalwarts who have many supporters in north haven't decamp and might possibly stick with APC to get their reelections in the state and national assembly


Tinubu reelection is a field debate not online permutations again

It is why the north remains most backward.
Which leaders of their own in the most recent time, whom they trusted, emerging as the President, had done the whole Nigeria good? Yaradua was so promising, but he didn't live out his goodwill.

The north keeps voting based on religion and kinsmen when it comes to choosing a national leader. That's backwardness speaking loud. Most of their leaders did this willingly as a tool, using the youngest uneducated ones to perpetrate this ignorance. The herds effect is real.

This isn't about Obi nor about any southerner, Nigeria won't progress as one entity if a section keeps choosing the national leader just because he comes from their axis or of their religion, well and above competency, levelled ground and merit.
Nigeria of today, doesn't look like a singular country, it is too divided along so many lines of unrelated conflicts and interests

Is it tinubu who dribbled them with a muslim-muslim ticket they'd trust? Make una dey play. It Is his opinion though, which everyone is entitled to. Of course, tinubu is good at spreading propaganda. He will do anything to sponsor propaganda against obi, even among his people but will fail cos people are wiser now. All odds are against him now as well, unlike in 2023.You've started the fake narratives once again. How come you guys not saying obi is a social media candidate again? I guessed its become a stale song right?.

Obi won 2023 election but they slapped him by conniving with the inec. We saw those flaws after the elections as they didn't perfect the rigging well. With the same faith ticket and massive rigging, tinubu, still didnt win north convincingly in 2023. North doesn't trust obi but he secured the much needed 25% in adamawa and others. How many apc states did tinubu win in the north? He even lost in the fct despite the well-funded campaigns. Obi spent nothing rather, we donated for him and we will do it again, even bigger. He's the masses candidate.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Elrufai will take care of the core north for obi. All obi needs is a little, from the core north. North didn't trust tinubu ahead of 2023 and they are vindicated already. CPC bloc won't vote him and their recent outbursts have shown. Onanuga had even made things worse for him with the recent 12m votes controversy. Words are like eggs.
Obi won 2023 election but could only muster 25% in 16 states, while Tinubu got 25% in 31 states. shocked

Then, how come he won Nassarawa, Plateau, almost won Benue, Taraba, got significant votes in Kaduna, Adamawa, etc.

If not for the abracadabra they did there, there no way he won't clinch the presidency?

Look, the north are becoming enlightened and the enlightened ones does follow the crowd of confused ones, they vote the best of the candidates, and never allow any Mallam to decide for them.

By 2027 when reality now dawn on them and they fail, which is certain btw grin they will now start crying and wailing rigging which is a weak submission of defeat grin

Their is no way in hell where northerners will leave Tinubu a southerner which constitutionally have just one more term left and vote another southerner another yam ree for that matter grin the yes daddy religious bigot and an Atiku/obi ticket wont win it either because of the agreement on zoning , as the south would largely vote for Tinubu, the dynamic of 2027 election would be different from 2023, Tinubu is not Jonathan, let that sink grin
