So this clueless clown actually thought that he can win out over Atiku? He's been used but he's too slow to understand ths game.
Obi and Atiku are not here to wrestle power. Nigerians has one goal which is to send Pablo back to Irabeji or Lagos. If Atiku get the ticket, Atiku/Obi ticket is good for Nigerians. If Obi get the ticket, Obi/Elrufia ticket is good for Nigerians.

Be realistic instead of being optimistic. Those questions are genuine questions that's only if you guys are sincere with yourself
Stop drinking Panadol for another person's headache. You should be happy Obi is not getting influence in ADC. Face your thiefnubuu and leave Obi alone

The sincere questions that Peter Obi's supporters are not asking themselves are,

What's Peter Obi's stake in ADC?
Who are his allies in the coalition?
Who is bringing people to the coalition?
Whether Obi has a stake in ADC or not, face your front is non of your business.

I’m not sure Obi can win any party’s primary truth be told. He doesn’t seems to take politics seriously. Only trying his luck and banking on his Obidient supporters. Only a party that would give him the ticket unopposed just like LP did in 2023 would favor him.
Dude is very poor at politicking. In this current rugged political terrain, such lackadaisical attitude will only lead him nowhere. He will remain popular but never able to hold power.

Banking on popular support doesn't work in party politics, even at the state level. That's why Osibanjo lost the presidential primaries to Tinubu. While Tinubu was going about lobbying and promising governors heaven and earth, Osibanjo was relying on Buhari and his own popularity among the people. How did it play out? The tactical politician won!

Obi will not get ADC ticket. On the other hand, LP ticket will be crisis-ridden, if not useless, going by the way Abure is steering the party. Obi must double up. It's an incumbent you are contesting against this time around. It's a very tall mountain!

The fear and torment Peter Obi gives you guys make one wonder if he's the current President. If Obi cannot win any party primaries, that should be his business and not yours. Focus on your life.

obi and his igbo dominated obidients should know by now that he has no real stake in the so called coalition. Atiku has over 70% of his men already in ADC. Atiku don't even need to spend dollars cos it will be the easiest primary for him. Who are obi men over there. When they keep playing nzogbu nzogbu politics, this are the results. Power is not gotten freely. Obi should have take advantage of the popularity he got in 2023, even thou it was through propaganda and be the one to spearhead the coalition but he decides to be serving rice and donating for the camera and Atiku took the chances and called for coalition against Tinubu. Now obi is now begging for one term, what a miscalculation because he don't want to spend in a Worthy cause but want free ticket. Those eye service donations should have been channeled to spearheading a coalition and later he can still share money for his political gain. Atiku has already gotten ADC to his arm and he is not willing to step down for anyone cos at 78 and 80 in 2027, that he is last chance.
Your analysis is like when a jesteris talking

If it's only igbos that voted in 2023 for obi or its only propaganda he will not defeat tinubu in lagos and even come close 3rd

Ojukwu self no reach such level

Adc is a coalition against voodoo tinubu apc government, it's not the vehicle for obi to get presidential ticket

So use your brain always if you haven't sold it to tinubu for maize

Obi should not run away from ADC, he should stay and go to the primary and test his popularity.
The last time Nigerians check, Obi has never run away from any Primary election and he never said, he will not run for any primary. Na fear dey catch una.

Why is Pablo running away from Presidential Debates?

Peter Obi is not Battling for any Influence in the ADC..

The Script is written already.

Atiku Abubakar will win the ADC Primaries...

Peter Obi will be his VP candidate...

Some Obidient members will be unhappy about this move..... Like Penguin2 🐧 🐧 🐧 🐧

While others will still decide to support Peter Obi and respect his choice because they believe in his decisions.

The Atiku-Obi Joint Ticket is the way to go and kick out the APC out of power.

APC, your time is up..... The ADC is here
The vice president has no power in the Nigerian constitution. He is just a spare tyre. Only Jonathan is the Vice president that has ever made it to the post of a president in Nigeria. As soon as the election is worn, the Vice president is put where he belongs; ask Osinbajo, ask Shettima. This is no good news for the obidients

Today they project Atiku.

Tomorrow they resurrect Jonathan.

Next tomorrow they are digging up old shits on Obi.

But one thing is certain, Tinubu will not last in Aso Rock beyond 29th May, 2027.

And only a fool will believe Jonathan will stand for election again in Nigeria. Only bumbling fool would.
you people should just try to work on your irrelevance and stop drawing undue influence that is not deserved.just two months ago all of you were shouting coalition and now they have put your messiah in his bunk with all the organic followers…you have seen that there is no weight actually appart from noise.

Discussing political discussion can never be referred to as being scared.

You guys are not even consistent with your arguments. I thought una said we are making Peter Obi popular by talking about him

Make una be stable for once
Re: Obi Battles For Influence Within ADC Coalition As Atiku’s Loyalists Gain Ground by chukwubyk(m): 11:28am On Aug 08, 2025
People are very funny.
There's already an agreement between Atiku and Obi.
Atiku will support Obi to win the presidential election in 2027.
Mark my words.

Re: Obi Battles For Influence Within ADC Coalition As Atiku’s Loyalists Gain Ground by yemmit90: 11:30am On Aug 08, 2025
Atiku/obi like 2019 ticket must have been agreed on before they even came up for the coalition, it is only political novices that don't know this. Tinubu and APC has already knows this, reason they are trying to mop up all votes from SS, SW and NC. They will still get significant votes from NW and NE.

Meanwhile, Atiku/Obi ticket will definitely win NW, NE and SE. The winner will be determine by margin votes in entirely North.

APC still have upper hands here, because there is possibility of them winning entire South and North Central with a wide margin. They will also get substantial amount of votes in NW and NE.

The gentleman power rotation between North and South has already jeopardize the chances of coalition.

tribal bigot....Obi decides to contest he is Igbo and only Igbos want him....y not say d see for Atiku and Tinubu too since they are all part of d major tribes.....una hypocrisy stinks abeg
You want to deny the obvious fact that the vast majority of Obis supporters are Igbos. In fact z if Obi had been from another tribe z he would have been laughed off the stage a long time ago. He's biggest asset is that he's Igbo and Igbos are desperate for a Igbo president hence they will continue to support someone that thry used to call a failure and he's now called their messiah. Only desperation can bring that about.

Is Dolllarised and Money bag Party primaries a place of "testing popularity"?

Or is it a test of Immorallity,corruption and debauchry?

Is that the kind of Politics you're expecting Peter Obi to be part of.

You are just as delusional as Obi...keep deceiving yourself while reality is stirring at you in the face. Obi can never and will never get ADC presidential ticket, the best he will get is a Vice which if he dere accept it, the obidients mob will finish him.

You Igbos should learn how to play politics, it not by shouting online..
