Whether Atiku or Obi, Tinubu's exit is non-negotiable
Penguin2:

The masses will think like that but southern powerbrokers will think otherwise. And believe me, as much as we are hoping that hunger has taught the masses enough lesson for them to want to decide their political future independent of any sentiments, you can’t rule out the influence of these stakeholders on considerable chunk of the masses.

But with Peter Obi, these southern powerbrokers will be split in two, at least, while the fate of Tinubu and Obi will then be decided by where North aligns.

Calculate!

All what you listed have been there before Apc .

Muslim Muslim ticket fear which got Obi reasonable votes is no longer there

President Tinubu not healthy, can't handle Nigeria has been dismantled

While the narration which mostly were fed about Peter Obi being a saint, did wonders as Anambra state governor while in reality, he had a terrible tenure. Those who swallowed that initial narration now know better

Inability of some Obidients to separate individual/group from a whole tribe will cost Peter Obi a lot

I’m going to try to be brief.

In the run on to the 2022 PDP National Congress, Obidients organized a nationwide march demanding PDP to adopt Peter Obi as their candidate and leave the rest of the fight for Nigerian youths, but many people in PDP weren’t convinced at all. Their reason? Obi cannot win a national election.

To the naysayers in PDP then, they insisted an Igbo man cannot win a National election for their party. They were certain Atiku will win them the election by 12 noon on Election Day.

Peter Obi saw the signs and left the PDP to Labour Party. A party that was just there. People laughed at him and those ing him. They said Labour Party had no structure. Some swore Obi will not win a single Local Government. Others swore he won’t score up to 1million votes. But in less than 8 months, Obi was able to galvanize his ers and went into the election and came out with 6.1million votes officially allocated to him by INEC. By that result, he was just 800k behind the Atiku they swore would win the election even with all of PDP’s structure, Governors, Senators, House of Rep and others. The country is still in shock till today.

Now, as the preparation for 2027 elections heats up with talks of coalition ongoing, the naysayers against Peter Obi have started their usual rhetorics. They are swearing Peter Obi is not a match for Tinubu; that only Atiku can face Tinubu and win. And I can’t help but laugh.

So I ask, who do you think will pose a tougher challenge for Tinubu in 2027? Is it Atiku or Peter Obi?

THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND

Keep in mind that should Atiku emerge the coalition candidate, it would truly be the battle of South vs North. No matter how hard anyone tries, that sentiment will rally the south behind Tinubu. All that will be needed will be the votes of some northern Christians, who mostly vote in same direction with the south, and Tinubu returns to power.

But with Peter Obi?

With Peter Obi as the coalition candidate, the Southeast and Southsouth will be locked down. Tinubu will be restricted to the Southwest (some Southwest votes if you like).

In the north, the northern Christians will always choose Obi over Tinubu any day and time.

And then all that will be needed will be for Atiku, Elrufai, and their men to deliver the core north and the election will be won by noon day on Election Day.

But these are just my own thoughts. What is yours?

Who do you think will pose a tougher challenge to Tinubu in 2027, and why?

This post should be meant for 2031 election not 2027.

Can't u read the signs or the handwriting on the wall.

APC already won the election even before it started.

APC is winning the next election with at least 11m to 12m votes.

Save ur energy for 2031 poll.

Sharia is now cutting people’s hands in Oyo and you think people are not seeing the side effect of the Muslim Muslim ticket?

Saying people no longer have fear of Tinubu’s health and inability to handle the economy, has he done any better? Is the economy better?

And talking about these problems having been there before APC is a big joke.

How much was a bag of rice before APC?

How much was a bag of beans before APC?

How much was a litre of fuel before APC?

How much was a pack of spaghetti before APC?

How much was a paint of Garri before APC?

Whether Obi or Atiku, the south will never rally behind Tinubu. There will be nothing like southern sentiment if Atiku emerged as the coalition candidate






Honestly , it will be a miscalculation if Atiku emergency without honouring zoning and Atiku has strong enemies in his party too.
Obi/El- rufai will get the job done before noon.
It will be a major political shift in Nigeria history considering Igbos grumble of marginalization and having El rufai and Atiku backing it up and Obedient movement on the move, Tinubu will come 3rd or 4th position in the election.

The same Buhari that violated the electoral law by openly displaying his ballot paper showing he voted for Tinubu on national tv?

Very funny...

So Obi needs Atiku, Elrufia and their men to deliver the North for him.. ?

But you don't want him to be VP to Atiku Abubakar...

I thought Peter Obi was very popular and can win the election without Northern

Free and fair either Obi or Atiku can easily defeat Tinubu. It would even be easier for Peter Obi than Atiku.

The only caveat is if the agbero will not snatch it, grab it and run away with it.
