I think it is a strategic move to defeat the ruling APC. Atiku has captured the majority of the electorates in Northern Nigeria. Tinubu will struggle in the North. The elites of the SE particularly will try to rig for Tinubu in the East if Obi is not on the ballot (especially as the Presidential candidate). Therefore, if Obi refuses to deputise Atiku as VP or not given the VP slot, then it becomes a smart move to ensure that SE votes do not go to Tinubu. SE votes will most likely decide the winner between Atiku & Tinubu. If A cannot get it, A prefers that B also does not get it. I suspect that Kwankwaso is actually working for Atiku. Recall Atiku's recent visit to Kwankwaso in Kano. Also note that Kwakwanso said he would never deputise Obi before now. What changed? Despite Kwankwanso on the ballot as VP to Obi, the North will not vote the ticket but use the ticket to lure away SE votes from Tinubu. In all these, the SE must avoid emotional politics to avoid loosing out again. They have to make a strategic decision and I think aligning with APC now holds the best opportunity to clinch presidential ticket in the future. SE's path to presidency lies (for the foreseable future) in the alignment with SS, SW & MB. NE & NW are no go areas due to religious differences and historical hostilities. 10,000 boreholes, billions in donations and even bigger project cannot do it.

Obj is the only reason sane minds like us still believe Nigeria can work.
Remove him from the equation and the election will be boring

What did Obi and his obscure communist LP labourers achieve three years ago, apart from helping Tinubu get his own turn to worsen APC extreme poverty shege unleashed on 200 million Nigerians since 2015

How you all discountenance 6 million votes from a structure-less organic candidate is laughable. None of you gave him that chance and rather than acknowledge his accomplishment you all hypocritically hound him. Who outside the two major parties since 1999 has ever secured 6m votes at Presidential level? In fact prove 3 million sef to me and I'll send 500k to your account.

Seriously YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND POLITICS AT ALL

They're better together (all opposition) in one party than this. They'll devide their votes again and make it more easier for Tinubu to emerge victorious, just watch and see.

APC is never counting on SE votes and Atiku did not even captured his homestate Adamawa not to talk of the entire Northern Nigeria.

We’ve heard this arguments before chiefly and it’s mainly from the APC and Pseudo APC PDP supporters. Those whose whole motivation in the ballot revolves around tribal cum religious sentiments. If you want to support the APC or the PDP, do it with your full chest.

What’s stopping Atiku from towing the statesman’s role and forming a formidable alliance with an Obi who’s seen by many as the most sellable candidate?. Why haven’t you seen it that Atiku is the one who’s giving the APC and Tinubu a pathway to power by his grandstanding?.

Please! Don’t tell them!

Let them keep hoping for impossibilities!

The biggest winner after Peter decamps is His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR)

Tinubu dan win again... Atiku and Obi votes splitted which favors BAT...
Atiku should just step down and support them. Else, we are back to square one again

garykoeman:
Make some people no complain later.

..you have started again..which court order

Dey are paving way for tulumbu.

helinues:
With the way the opposition already divided their own votes even before the election, the national assembly should make a law that anyone that shout rigging after the 2027 election should be sentenced to minimum of 1 year in prison

You can only enact that law if election is free and fair. You know vividly that your party APC will rig the election.

. Atiku might also defect to NDC for ADC still has court issues to resolve.. supreme court told ADC to go back to federal high court to conclude their matter or court case

Thrash! Everyone has turned to political analyst because of Obi, even those who don't have voters card.

Oga abeg make una rest.

Tinubu is still the favourite then if you check how Nigeria works..... it'll take something like a miracle to unseat him.

person done lost Kano votes, Lagos , prot Harcourt votes this time around favorite kor

He should not step down. Let him be disgraced badly this time around. No governors to help him win some states easily. He will not get half of the votes he got last election.

bluefilm:
Something tells me NDC will soon start facing so many (manufactured) internal crises and ruggles...

It's just a matter of time...

Jagaban's touch.

Interesting.

I feel that something unexpected is about to happen. If Obi/Kwankwaso secure the presidential ticket for NDC, they will have to spend billions for mass orientation and publicity.

Atiku might withdraw eventually if the OK ticket gathers much momentum. Just to make sure Tinubu does not come back.

HacheNoire:
In 2026, you still blaming His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) for the incompetence of other party’s.

Let’s even imagine he planted a mole in ALL party’s, is it still not the incompetence of those party not to be able to detect and expel those moles?

Imagine Tesla blaming BYD for the drop in sales because his OWN R& team has been infiltrated. Does it sound sane and responsible?

At least it sounds more sane to get the correct spelling of the word 'parties'

Mr. Tinubu's defendant, what has your Pampers President achieved so far in the interest of the Nigerian People after cunningly getting the seat?

Toluabigr8:
Political prostitute..abeg shift

If political prostitution will give us a better Nigeria, every good leader should join the bandwagon and decamp to wherever, as many times as possible.

naptu2:
I would add it to my list.

Yesterday the OK Movement had a summit and someone (a supporter of Atiku) asked where they got the money to organise the summit and another person replied that Tinubu sponsored them.

Some minutes later I saw a member of the OK Movement claiming that Bola Tinubu sponsored Atiku to divide the opposition.

So this Naptu is so petty.

This tinubu government don expose a lot of people.

Is NDC also planning to conduct transparent primary or give peter OBI the consensus he is looking for ?


You claimed you ran away from consensus in ADC only to be made consensus in NDC.


This one is just using his supporters brain

Tenses:
So this Naptu is so petty.

Aha! One of my entertainers has arrived.

Enjoy your block.

helinues:
All the best to them.

Official early congratulations to president Tinubu for his reelection

That Atiku and Kwankwanso will be in the same party, I said it won't be possible and should that happen, 2023 votes sabotage will be repeated. Now add the factor of Obi also living ADC

Even with the united opposition, Atiku, Obi, Kwankwanso, Amaechi and co can't still defeat president Tinubu not to talk of when they are scattered into pieces.

Will votes count?
Will they allow Nigerian voters to vote without intimidations and thuggeries?
Will they stop voters inducement on election grounds?
Will INEC and security agents be independent?
Will they allow the election to be void of violences?

indigenous234:
If Obi could do what he did in 2023 with an underwhelming Datti Baba Ahmed and an obscure Labour Party in such a short time frame, the possibilities of what could happen with a Kwankwaso is left unexplored

Tinubu was not president then...

Now he is president!

Rigging machines activated for Tinubu to win.
Organically,most Nigerians go vote out Tinubu.
If e do well,e for relax.

It is now anyone’s election.
Atiku will sweep majority of the core North with Tinubu coming second and Obi winning Kano.
The middle belt will learn heavily towards Obi but divided by Atiku and Tinubu .
South West outside of Lagos will go to Tinubu but Atiku will do well in Ondo and Oyo.
South East will go to Obi
South South is uncertain .Tinubu/Obi to share .
No one can predict who will win .

Mention any politician that is not desperate for power?
Well, you have to work for what you are being paid for. This hardship and insecurity nor reach where you dey.

After 2027, Mr Peter Obi will move his luggages to camp APC....

That's a prophecy. 😎
