Peter Obi Denies Joining PDP by TimeManager(op): 7:18pm On Jul 30, 2025
Peter Obi, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, has distanced himself from a statement purportedly issued by him, which claimed he was joining the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

Obi has reaffirmed his allegiance to the African Democratic Congress, ADC.

The former Anambra State governor made this known via a statement signed by Ibrahim Umar of the Peter Obi Media Reach, POMR, in Abuja on Tuesday.

The statement read in part: “Peter Obi has been unequivocal in his position in the ongoing coalition and didn’t need anyone to put words into his mouth.

“He has remained focused on his mission but would not accept anybody attributing a statement to him just to satisfy their devious agenda.

“The media office wishes, therefore, to urge the public to disregard any statement purported to come from him outside his media office or his official handle.”

Obi where art thou?

ADC or LP?

My best bet for Obi is to be VP to Atiku.

That's a guaranteed victory combination

Peter Obi knows that Wike is patiently waiting with a long cane in PDP, so he wouldn't want to go and collect cane. Meanwhile, he has submitted a proposal to Atiku for a one term Presidency. He's more likely to be the VP to Atiku than any hope of returning to PDP. And there's a little matter of Ameachi scheming behind the scenes who can snatch the VP slot from Obi with the backing of CPC faction. Obi might not really know the direction he's headed presently.

You can as well vote for Lord Lugard.

Anyone that thinks Obi will be running mate to anyone again is still a learner.

The last time they did, they failed. So much so, Obi was visibly missing in Atiku's posters in the North. The result will be the same nonetheless.

Re: Peter Obi Denies Joining PDP by shortgun(m): 7:29pm On Jul 30, 2025
Peter Obi the incoming president of Nigeria 2027 in Sha Allah. cool
He did it before, he will do it again
Re: Peter Obi Denies Joining PDP by gentlegenius(m): 7:31pm On Jul 30, 2025
Peter the Rock........
Let them keep spreading the lies....
You'll keep going higher...........
Meanwhile...
The Reno O'monkey that is attacking Peter Obi today, did worse to Tinubu. Yet today, he is praising and dancing around Tinubu, looking for crumbs that will fall from the table.
A time will come Reno will also praise Obi, after all, he already know Obi is the best.
Here are the past tweets of Reno O'monkey...

So much fuss about nothing.

We await the day things will turn around for good and better in Nigeria.
Re: Peter Obi Denies Joining PDP by emkz:
So where is Peter Obi now?

He is not exactly being courted by LP. They had threatened his expulsion before Datti attended their NEC meeting. He is also in limbo in ADC ad Atiku does not intend to relinquish the ticket to him. Rotimi Amaechi is also unlikely to allow Obi get the vice presidential ticket. Make no pretence, El Rufai doesn't like Obi either.

PDP has courted him, but Wike, Makinde, Saraki and Bala are unlikely to support him as they'd feel sidelined.

If Obi doesn't plan well, he might lose out in LP and ADC. That would be the end of his political experiment.

Assuming Peter Obi doesn't run or loses, would he continue his emergency philanthropy and serving food that received social media traction this year?

who doesn't know it was rumor?

he can't join Pdp while Wike is still there, it will be a miscalculation
Re: Peter Obi Denies Joining PDP by Shawarmagirl: 7:34pm On Jul 30, 2025
Peter Obi is not naive to join the same PDP APC control through Wike. Is not possible.
Re: Peter Obi Denies Joining PDP by SatoshiX: 7:35pm On Jul 30, 2025
A man with no principles. APGA, PDP, LP ADC, where next? 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

Pdp is a nogo area
Wike should get the ticket he always wanted, no more G5

I think if Wike wants it with Atiku gone, He will easily get it but I doubt he’s interested in it anymore. probably just positioning himself for the post of VP come 2031 either in APC or PDP
Re: Peter Obi Denies Joining PDP by Mrexcell(m): 7:42pm On Jul 30, 2025
If the pdp can micro zone their presidential ticket to the south east obi can then consider joining them it doesn't make any sense to leave the coalition at this point to join a pdp that's facing internal sabotage.
Re: Peter Obi Denies Joining PDP by Hemanwel(m): 7:45pm On Jul 30, 2025
Why would he think of doing such?

Tinubu did more philanthropy than Obi when he was a presidential candidate...
Now that he is president, is he still doing it?
How come nobody is asking this question?

They have resolved the matter; Atiku has been persuaded to let go untill 2031 but it wasn't an easy resolution; his conditions.....which was almost like co-presidency with Obi...was tough but Obi was also persuaded to agree.He signed,they signed,issues resolved.That's why ADC seemed to come back to Life again since Monday.

See?

grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

So Atiku was convinced to relinquish 2027 to Obi and then Atiku would run in 2031 because Obi agreed to do only one term?

Do you actually believe what you wrote?

Can you explain the concept of co-presidency?
