ViceGovernor:
This man no go let hausa people play you......6 million votes last election is what theyre after this time around and now they are planning to give you vice president position and trap you in that party.
Would you rather have him decamp last minute to get consensus ticket in a party that Tinubu has set up for him huh

Who do you think will play the role of Utomi this time around? Interesting that ADC was the first party Utomi used in 2007, before he started jumping to different parties like an unprincipled politician.

The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.

The governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in Oyo State, Tawfiq Akinwale, [/b]on Wednesday [b]stated that the “President-elect” Bola Tinubu asked popular economist, Prof Pat Utomi to step down for Peter Obi in the buildup to the 2023 general elections.

Akinwale made this revelation while he appeared as a guest on a radio programme on 101.7 YES FM, Ibadan, Oyo State, while alleging that Obi received campaign funds from Utomi, whom he described as Tinubu's "son."

The LP aspirant, who spoke in Yoruba language, said "In the buildup to the 2023 elections, Obi who had purchased the nomination form of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), suddenly announced his exit from the party.

"Initially, Pat Utomi had secured the LP's presidential ticket, but when Peter Obi said he resigned from the PDP and joined the LP. Bola Tinubu, a master political strategist, quickly told Utomi, that everyone knows to be his son to step down for Obi.

"The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.

"What Peter Obi didn't know is much more that what he knows, he started collecting campaign funds from Utomi, while Tinubu was giving the money to Utomi.

"This went on until Obi's presidential campaign got to a stage it went beyond target. Obi was used without him knowing," Akinwale said after announcing his departure from the party.

Obi defected to the LP after resigning his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and also withdrawing from the presidential race under the party.

The former governor consequently joined the race for the party’s presidential ticket, while Professor Pat Utomi, in June 2022 stepped down for him to emerge as the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, unopposed in Asaba, Delta State.

How do you know that Atiku is not working behind the scenes, and that he is the one who sent his 2019 running mate to Bauchi for optics, after doing the legwork huh

The man who Atiku revived his dead political career after Obiano kicked him out of APGA five years earlier.
Well, I just hope, he is behind the scene.

Nevertheless, Obi is a politician with touch of technocracy.

Bala Muhammed is a scammer and opportunist.

He had a closed-door meeting with Tinubu weeks ago and was just minutes away from signing up to APC FC.

I guess he wasn't given what he asked for, or failed medicals

That's why he is with ADC today.

Don't trust that man,

Same with Kwasogbu

Atiku Abubakar is calling Bola Tinubu a thief and Bola Tinubu is also calling Atiku a thief. Both Atiku and Tinubu have not called Peter Obi a thief for once. Thief knows thief ~ Dele Farotimi

So Peter Obi is now meeting directly with Northern Governors.

I thought they called him IPOB. BIAFRA, .....so the North no longer buys the narratives pushed by Tinubu supporters...

Hmmmm....how will TINUBu campaign in the North with virtually all aspects of life against him?

Physical Man and even Spirits have rejected him and some persons will want to cast a false representation of fact to feed the gullible?

Hunger and insecurity killed TINUBUs Government.

People must NOT be like the people below...NIGERIA is NOT LAGOS STATE, where APC appointees are taxation,propaganda and agbero specialists.

Tinubu is GONE..and No JUPITER will bring him back...NONE at all

Yes now
Northerners are deceiving Tinubu but they are not deceiving peter OBI grin

Sadly the northerners will play him....
Based on history and political equation of this country, northerners will not queue behind an Igbo man.... They will never play a second fiddle to an Igbo person.... It's the reality!
It's either they support their own, where and when possible or they strike a deal with a Yoruba person...

You can argue with me or say whatever you want.. it doesn't change the settings of things or my assertion....

Jagaban of Borgu is going nowhere.

He is looking beyond 2027, to his 3rd term agenda for life president. Something that Obasanjo failed to achieve in 2007, with Atiku leading other democracy heroes to kill the bill despite Ghana must go bags.

Tinubu has Amupitan’s INEC and Wike’s judges to ensure no serious opposition to his plan.

But why doing all these things just prepare your mind against any form of heart break when Obi won't become ADC presidential candidate.

Bala Muhammed that was rejected in APC. The man has a serious case, the only thing saving him so far is the immunity he is enjoying.
His Commissioner for Finance has being denied bail and is currently in Prison for terrorism financing.
$2 million was given in cash to a person or group of persons linked with terrorists.
I believe that's the reason APC was not deposed to having him around.
Other cases are understandable, but this one is something different entirely.
Obidient should be fully aware of who they are dinning with
You think those lots and their principal cares about? They don’t mind partnering with terrorists or even the devil to attain their aim. But what they fail to understand is that their desperation is obvious to the average voter.
Re: Peter Obi Meets Bauchi Governor Mohammed Behind Closed Doors Amid Defection Talk by Daddyk87(m): 8:05pm On Apr 23
Bala had no where to look.
APC rejected him.
He is a very bad market

Atiku is a big guy. He sends his boys to do the errand for him. Obi is a boy he has to do the errand himself.
