SlavaUkraini:
At least the Vice President can learn the ropes of the Presidency

Which Peter Obi really needs to learn before assuming the office of the President

in Nigeria politics a deputy governor and vice president cannot serve 8 years with his/her principal and come back to be a president,as long as you have served the 8 years don't bother thinking about being the president.

Only a delusional mind would think the so-called coalition is grooming Obi as its presidential candidate. The entire setup is a carefully crafted vehicle to drive Atiku back to Aso Rock — Obi is just the expendable pawn on the board. But as usual, he and his online noise factory are too busy echoing empty hype across social media to see what's coming. By the time reality hits, it’ll be far too late — again.

Obi should not run away from ADC, he should stay and go to the primary and test his popularity.

U wan kill the man?
He needs a party where the ticket will be handed to him.

Throughout his political journey All tickets had been handed to him on a platter of gold

Now you guys are seeing politics abi? Atiku, Obi, Elrufia, Amaechi and co will not decamp yet. We love the way they are confusing your camp and give them something to talk about daily.

so didn't you see ATIKU and ameachi resignation letter from their party ? Or you were just giving free bonus data to read news and post rubbish?

The so-called coalition is doomed from the start. If Atiku emerges as the flagbearer, it would be nothing short of betrayal — a slap in the face to the South, whose turn it is to lead. And if Obi stoops to deputize Atiku, he’ll pay a steep political price. Many of his supporters will see it for what it truly is — raw desperation. After all his grandstanding about fighting the “structure of criminality,” he would be aligning with the very same establishment he once condemned. That move alone would expose him as just another political opportunist — a serial party-hopper with a record of inconsistency — willing to sacrifice principle and regional justice for a seat at the table.

Now, flip the script — if Obi leads the ticket, don’t expect the North to rally behind him. There’s deep skepticism about his one-term promise. For the North, it’s politically wiser to wait four years than risk being locked out for eight. Supporting Obi now gives them no strategic advantage.

The truth is, this coalition is spinning in circles — politically stranded, morally compromised, and strategically lost. As 2027 approaches, reality will bite, and the chickens will surely come home to roost.

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!

And incumbent that is no longer Popular all over the country!! Except in some places in the SouthWest...due to Ethnocentric sentiments.

In 2023,Peter Obi with no structures contested against the incumbent....who is one and the same person..(the APC...and Buhari,and INEC,governors,are structures belonging to Tinubu...

But Obi defeated All of them in their enclaves; Buhari at FCT and Also Rock,Tinubu in Lagos,APC chairman at his State in Nassarawa.

A person described as a Political tsunami by the ooni of ife,is whom you're shy of showing respect.

Now with El-Rufai,Tambuwal,Shagari and Possibly Kwankwaso,he's secretly Plotting his structures to add to what's already got,and you think your "incumbent" stand a chance?

If you know what's coming,you'll shudder.

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.

What gibberish is this one saying? Why would Obi even coalate with ADC in the first instance after getting over 6 million votes in the last elections instead of consolidating. You are here making meaningless comment..This goes to show that Obi is not a politician. Did APC forced him to start romancing ADC?

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.

Daydreamer, your forefathers have been daydreaming since the 1960s and 70s, when one of them started a war that he couldn't win.
You will keep wailing, crying, and daydreaming till 2031. Then you will start all over again.

Come out of fantasy land. After the elections you all will start your usual lamentations. I am stating the obvious, and you are here painting some imaginary pictures. You think the northerners will hand ADC structure over to him? You must be a baby analyst if you think so.

It's either Obi settles for VP slot under Atiku in ADC or he returns to LP. By the way, are you talking about the same Tambuwal that helped edge Obi and Wike out of PDP ticket in 2023? grin

Wake up and smell the coffee. You guys should stop this self deluding

This was similar to what y’all said about obi when he contested for presidency in 2023, no structure yet he came first but was given third by a bunch of riggers and power grabbers. Now, y’all doesn’t talk about structures but yelling obi doesn’t have allies. I pity una for this country where people don’t say good about the good ones

PigTormentor:
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.

and d best governor of Lagos State that u support is doing very well in Nigeria now....u guys should keep fooling yourself and hiding under d cloak of ethnic bigotry the project ur packaged fraud now in Aso rock....if not for d power of incumbency and political rigging, Tinubu won't be president come 2027

[quote author=kedeojo post=136384341]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.

Go and get a life and stop responding to this kind of CONCOCTED STORIES pushed to forment trouble within the ADC RANK.
Every discerning mind knows the origin of this DISINFORMATION AND IT'S INTENT....AND LAUGHS OFF THE ATTEMPT.
Why can't APC and MASTER STRATEGIST just pay it's "digital boyz" to showcase their "ACHIEVEMENTS" ?...instead of going on this MISSION IMPOSSIBLE!!.🤪😜

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.

Nigga just want free ticket on the platter grin

His stooges are there blackmailing everyone to step aside for him. I don't know why he's so scared of primary 😂

Maybe we should introduce the concept of Joint Presidency or Co-Presidency from 2027.

Inec should just announce the 4 Co-Presidents as:

-Goodluck Jonathan (Foreign Affairs)
-Atiku Abubakar (Political)
-Peter Obi (Economy)
-Bola Tinubu (Admin)

So that we can have peace.

Another propaganda from Apc is this post….this is what we kill APC because the coalition and Nigerians are getting smarter than them in their propaganda….Atiku is not going to contest in 2027 so by the time Apc cannot use him as propaganda again …it will be over for them ….Wike is confused already because he already realized what he is fighting for which is Southern Presidency is what will be used against him and his enemy friend Tinubu ….only fools will say Wike and Tinubu are allie’s if not for selfish interest

Tinubu and his foolish supporters are opening their yansh for Nigerians and coalitions to see who they fear most out of Atiku,Obi and Jonathan…this is becoming very interesting as we all know Apc is not about governance but politics so Nigerians are ready for them …it’s like the fight against Abacha….Tinubu Apc is in a war against Nigerians obviously because all we see online and in the streets now is just about politics after 2 years of their government and about elections again not what will better the lives of an average Nigerian

It's said they 'leveraged on their early entry into ADC' while obi was busy being confused and not know what political platform to run on.
When Tinubu said u 'grab power and run with it' people were bashing him but the man was actually saying d right thing.
Power is earned and never given.
Atiku is busy positioning himself while obi is busy being confused.

Sincerely speaking, you guys just love to see the country in the wrong hands because they share dollars ..

Where is the country today? Tinubu who knows Politics knew his first priority are his friends and elites that gave him support, so he has to tend for them first ......

.even Atiku said the same, he will sell so many things and give contracts to his friends as well..
