Statistics don’t lie and sometimes, na statistics we go chop.

When you examine the numbers closely, it becomes immediately clear why the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and President Bola Tinubu’s political handlers will do everything and anything possible to ensure that a political reunion between Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi never sees the light of day.

In the 2019 general election, when Atiku Abubakar ran under the PDP with Peter Obi as his running mate:

PDP (Atiku/Obi) secured 11,262,978 votes. But APC (Buhari/Osinbajo) won with 15,191,847 votes

Now compare that with Tinubu’s 2023 victory.

APC (Tinubu/Shettima) won with just 8,794,726 votes. That’s 6.4 million fewer than Buhari's tally in 2019

Meanwhile, Atiku (PDP, 2023) still managed 6,984,520 votes amd Peter Obi (Labour Party) secured 6,101,533 votes.

That’s a combined total of over 13 million votes, nearly 5 million more than Tinubu, even while Atiku and Obi ran on separate platforms.

Let’s be honest: Tinubu didn’t win with a mandate, he won with mathematics.

He won simply because the opposition was fragmented between Atiku, Obi, and Kwankwaso.

Tinubu knew in 2023 that he could never cross 12 million votes, not in a post-#EndSARS Nigeria where the youth were still reeling from pain, anger, and distrust. He knew that a united Atiku–Obi ticket of likely over 12million votes could crush his chances.

So he split them.

That division was not by accident, it was a political necessity for survival.

Now add the fact that:

The North is disillusioned with Tinubu’s administration: Inflation, insecurity and lopsided appointments have left many northerners feeling betrayed and excluded. Buhari’s legacy vote bank of over 12 million is now up for grabs.

If Atiku can reclaim even half of that northern base and Obi mobilizes the southern youth, they’re looking at 12 to 15 million votes in 2027. The number Tinubu can never reach, considering his performance.

That number would obliterate Tinubu’s 2023 scoreline and turn the next election into a referendum against a failed presidency.

Now that the North is murmuring and agitating, Tinubu’s 2023 formula won’t work in 2027. His voting power in the North has dramatically dropped and he knows it.

So what’s the new plan?
Enter Rabiu Kwankwaso, the “anointed pawn”.

All signs suggest Tinubu’s camp may try to push Kwankwaso as a northern counterweight, a spoiler to split votes from Atiku and minimize the northern swing against APC.

But it’s a dangerous gamble.

If the North senses it’s being played, and the South regroups behind Obi, the result could be a historic backlash at the polls.

This is why there's a quiet but strategic effort to lure Peter Obi back into the PDP not to empower him, but to neutralize him.

A Peter Obi + Atiku Abubakar ticket isn’t just a political comeback, it’s a revolution of numbers, energy, and regional balance.

The numbers prove one thing:
They didn’t win because they were strong. They won because the opposition was divided.

And if the Atiku–Obi combo reemerges with better strategy, a stronger ground game, and national discontent on their side, APC’s worst nightmare may finally come true.

Lol... Terrify, terrify terrify... Una nogo let us hear word?

Will you guys wait till 2027 first?

Clowns,

Old age is not a disease. He’s not running for a sprint. Unless you can prove that his mental capacity can not handle post.

You guys just like to be making noise always. Bring your Atiku/Obi in 2027. The beating is patiently waiting for them

But according to you people, president Tinubu is too old to lead Nigeria.

Atiku /obi is the surest way to defeat Tinubu

axis of evil, abi na weapons of mass destruction?

ibabz:

he stands no chance whatsoever in 2027, & the north will discard him in 2031.

They are both wasting their time, but somebody has to ply the role, so I don’t blame them.

Let me assure you something, Obi will never run as vice president especially because he is the best among all the aspirants including Tinubu

Obi will never run as vp again.

Obi-El Rufai and Obi-Tambuwal is surer than AtikuObi

mrvitalis:
Atiku /obi is the surest way to defeat Tinubu

I just love the fact that you are suffering from self delusions

People that are afraid and restless are the ones opening threads upon thread projecting their fears on others, this life is funny! The number of able men is more than delusion men’s roaming around now.

The fear should be in Atiku's camp.. reason being that if peradventure that combo wins (just an assumption cos they can't and won't win), it's either Atiku surrenders his role to Obi or Obi's people will plan coup to oust him and takeover.
Atiku should not underestimate the SEners.. erin won o de nu.

Who is more mentally stable and conscious between Atiku and Tinubu?

Let’s engage in intellectual discussion, if you have the capability. Why is everyone in APC fighting for the southern candidate? Wike and the likes of Reno have repeatedly kicked against the combo of Atiku and Obi. What are they afraid of? Why are they more concerned with who the opposition picked than how to solve the national crisis?

You are entitled to your opinion and I respect that, but disagree. But I still love you as a brother. I have said this before, I’m proud to be an African man not because I’m a Yoruba man, but because I’m a Nigeria. The name Nigeria is more respected anywhere in the word that the Yoruba. The day Nigeria ceased to exist the day i ceased to be an African man, trust me I have that option available.
