when u want to remove a hopeless incompetent incumbent government u don't have the luxury of building a party.

But I do agree Peter should have done better to build Labour party.

tesseract:
Go and ask your grandfather.

There is no need to be combative... Let me rephrase the question.

Hypothetically speaking, if Obi becomes the president is he not going to use the same army and police and other existing security architecture?

What is he going to do differently that is not being done?

While this is a figment of APC’s imagination, Nigerians will follow Peter Obi to any political party he goes.

Nobody prefers the current level of insecurity and failed economy to Peter Obi except people benefiting from the current system

The current system that Obi made possible by his clueless abandonment of PDP’s deregulation and privatisation policies for communist LP labourers?

Who do you think Tinubu has in mind for his reelection since Utomi can’t do it again

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.

Where is the lie in what Morka said?

I'm not surprised an Obi supporter talking about imagination. That's what you guys do best. Imagining all sorts of scenarios and hoping it will come to reality. And when reality hits you, you hurl insult, bully, threaten, and cry victim.

I find it funny that APC and Tinubu speak more of Obi rather than the insecurity in the nation or what Tinubu actually did

Legitiscool:
He has met his Waterloo

Deadline to change party would meet him in adc

That's why he has shifted to begging kwankwaso to help him with the pedigree he lacks in primary

Yet atiku don first beat kwankwaso for 2018 pdp primary

Which ADC are you talking about?

The one that Amupitan of INEC and Wike’s judges have locked out of 2027

Wike Boasts Of Helping APC Use Judiciary To Kill Osun LG Funds Case, Warns Party Leaders Against Ingratitude

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has openly boasted that he assisted certain elements within the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in deploying the judiciary to frustrate the Osun State local government allocation lawsuit.

In a video now circulating widely on social media and obtained by SaharaReporters, Wike made the claim while addressing a crowd in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

The former Rivers governor accused the APC National Secretary, Senator Ajibola Basiru, of benefitting from judicial actions against the Osun State Government without knowing those who did the work behind the scenes.

The suit in question led to the withholding of local government funds in Osun State, a development widely seen as targeting the administration of Governor Ademola Adeleke as opposition in the state.

Wike, who spoke angrily, suggested that the court action supporting the APC’s position against the Osun government did not happen by chance, boasting that powerful political forces worked quietly to ensure the outcome.

“Don’t take our support for Mr President for granted,” Wike warned, in an apparent message to APC leaders defending Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara. “You have to be careful about the statements you make. You have to be very careful.”

He accused Basiru of political ingratitude, claiming the APC was enjoying in Osun State without understanding who engineered their advantage.

“Today, you are enjoying in Osun. You don’t know those who did the work,” Wike said. “You are opening your mouth to talk about Rivers State.”

Minister Wike has warned the National Secretary of the APC, Ajibola Basiru to stay clear of Rivers State.

I’ve asked you before, who’s your candidate? Let’s examine his antecedents and see how perfect he is compared to Obi

Peter records are better than tinubu so Nigerian prefer him anyday.

There’s no comparison between Obi and the hell people are facing under Tinubu. You no get shame to still be talking about the hardship and insecurity people have experienced under Tinubu

He is a lazy politician that has nothing to sell that is why he is afraid of primary like a real man but looking for monkey dey work baboon dey chop party where he will act like Emperor.

Hin eyes go clear soon.

Igbos will soon blame a Wike for Obi effeminate attitude.

Tochitee:
Peter obi Yash has opened ! He needs to go and learn politics from sanwo olu and soludo etc

It's not an exercise in futility if you learn how to liberate your people from poverty.

This is not a problem at all. Its now left for Nigerians to decide if they want to continue with tilumbu or change the most wickedest regime in Africa. Where the citizens you're leading will be slaughtered like sheep and you kept quiet, where you will be causing pains on the citizens with nonsense policies without any results, borrowing billions every 2 months without doing anything reasonable and tangible with it. Sharing the country's commonwealth with your seven hooligans and family while killing the citizens with taxes. Nigerians, its up to you people! Obi is a made man; he got nothing to lose in Nigeria

No
Kwankwanso beat Atiku in the first APC primaries in 2015. Kwankwanso came second after Buhari and atiku came third

You people can keep deceiving Obi. His eyes will soon clear. Unfortunately, he will claim the election is rigged but as usual, no evidence.p

If he likes let him contest under LFC, I, my family and my friends will still vote.
No form of gimmicks from APC and their begging cronies will deter us

Morka feigns ignorance of Nigeria's skewed and lopsided political structure with 20 federating units in one northern region but only 17 states in the southern regions and just 5 states given to Obi's southeast zone.
The political structure screens out the Obis in popitical primaries of the major political parties in Nigeria.
Useless stomach politician.

Bola Tinubu won the APC primaries because he was the strongest contestant politically, no argument.

Please go & ask for your deposit back from the CBN.
