This is good news for Tinubu. No wonder some people believe that Peter Obi is seriously working for Tinubu to destroy Atiku's political career.

2023: Atiku wins; Obi is VP

2031: Obi contests for presidency with full backing of Atiku and the Northern bloc

This is how it should have been. Atiku and Obi missed a golden window. Their destinies were tied together. They were too naive.
Exactly!
I wonder how both of them didn't see it that way..... its now quite complicated for both of them, either running independently or as a team, so so complicated. Only those who apply pure emotions and not being pragmatic will feel otherwise.

Kwankwaso is waiting for PO confirmation before he defects for the VP position.
Deluded OBIDIENTS are everywhere.

Kwankwaso will never deputise for Obi. Kwankwaso has not even agreed to join the ADC and OBIDIENTS are already claiming he will deputise Obi

That's the hurdle.

If Obi wins ADC coalifusion primary, which would be shocking, don't expect full commitment from Atikulooter and Ameachi.

Always remember that no one, not even your biological child, can be trusted with power.

It's not written anywhere that Obi would not pull the rug off the feat of Atiku or Ameachi tomorrow. As president he would need to establish himself and take charge of his government at the expense of his benefactors. That's how life is.

Odili fought Ada George
Ameachi fought Odili
Wike fought Ameachi
Fubara fought Wike
Kwakwaso fought Rimi
Yusuf fought kwakwaso
Oyetola fought Aregbesola
Aregbesola fought Tinubu
etc
Political actors are very mindful of their choice of support.
two raised hands for you....Spot on!

Obi, just do everything humanly possible to be the presidential candidate of any party you are sincerely joining because this could be your last chance at doing this Jamboree again. It's often say that "Thunder doesn't strike twice at the same location, but I don't want to believe that in your situation, it's likely thunder might strike but hoping it wouldn't be to destabilize the location.....

Re: 2027: I’ll Run As Presidential Candidate – Peter Obi Rejects VP Role by epainos:
Everything is playing excellently for Tinubu to win again. I can see two possibilities that can dethrown Tinubu:

1. The best is Atiku - President, Obi -Vice President.
2. Very Good - Obi - President, Any northern candidate approved by Atiku, and solidly behind them.

Option 2 is very slim to happen because Atiku will buy over 85% delegates again.

And Option 1 is a mistake for Obi because it will be the end of his political journey like Osinbajo.


I believe Obi should have switched to another political party instead of ADC to keep his card, and then nominated a loyal VP for Atiku. He should have worked with Atiku from another party and encouraged supporters to vote for Atiku - Tinubu's strategy. This will make him the number SE presidential candidate (no rival), but he wants to be the president now. This is the reason I respect Tinubu because he was so patient until he was sure of winning.

Better. Good for Atiku to retire if ADC wants to make headway

SpaceX:

There is no element of surprise anywhere, though there's nothing God cannot do, but realistically and all things been equal he has NO chance except is just helping Tinubu to continue till 2031.

That's why Tinubu is more matured than most other politicians. He sacrifice his ambition in 2015 of being VP by relinquish totally just for them to grab power because that's most important. Obi to presidency can only occur thru deputize northern candidate first and hope to use that as springboard to Aso rock. He doesn't have the math, because I tell you northerner will rather endure more "4 painful years" than entrusting presidency into Obi.

If he misses his chance in 2027, forget it in 2031 the power will go back to north till 2039 and by then Obi would have become another Atiku wannabe.

Truthissupreme:
The thing is was the south east and south south not voting before obi started contesting?

If obi is not even on the ballot at all it's still a plus for Atiku

Atiku just needs like 30% of the same traditional voter base who would not vote Apc

Just like 2Million max to his 6million

I am even generous to the obi mob that says 100% of his voters are first time voters that have never voted for same atiku before

which ambition he sacrifice he clearly knows obj from d west has rule full 8yrs he knows is the time of the North he use Buhari to ride into power if tinubu had face Johnathan 2015 Goodluck would had beat him blue black on a normal day 2023 is suppose to be Igbos turn naturally cause they are d only tribe yet to produce presidency since democracy but ojukwu spoil things. So bro tinubu did not sacrifice any ambition he is just a good political calculator he knows when to come out unlike Atiku who comes out after another Fulani has just finished good 8yrs. Naturally he would had waited 2031 then back obi against tinubu. Am not a tunubu fan but I want him to finish is 8yrs an obi winning or Atiku is back to square one again

Exactly what I thinking too...

But if the old man decides to contest the primary, then Obi will likely not win the primary.

Somebody that couldn't recover a tiny party (LP) from the damages done to it, but jumped ship at the first sight of trouble is whom you're advocating would solve a gigantic problem like Nigeria? You lot should just limit yourselves to watching skits online. Logical discussions are not meant for you.

Re: 2027: I’ll Run As Presidential Candidate – Peter Obi Rejects VP Role by lapintoz: 8:44am On Feb 03
This is Obi playing to the gallery. He is begging privately to be vice to Atiku. But to satisfy the mumu ism of his followers, statement like this is being issued.

Last last, he will settle for VP and beg zombidients to accept their fate.
