The presidential candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 election, Atiku Abubakar and Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, are in talks to adopt a new political party ahead of the 2027 polls.

Sources told The Africa Report that Abubakar and Obi met recently, where they discussed plans to adopt a new political party in preparation for the 2027 elections. Both men will meet again in Yola, Adamawa State, this Saturday, November 30, where the former Anambra governor will be the keynote speaker at a ceremony in honour of the former vice president’s 78th birthday.

A spokesperson confirmed that the option of a merger remains on the table but did not provide specific details.

Since their loss to President Bola Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2023 election, Atiku and Obi have been having conversations on an alliance and the Founder’s Day which Obi would attend Saturday at American the University of Nigeria (AUN) owned by Abubakar, was organised to show that the friendship between both men remains strong.

The talk of an alliance or merger between both men is also hinged on the fact that the PDP has been in a prolonged crisis from 2023 till date and the current national chairman of the party, Umar Damagum, is a loyalist of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Nyesom Wike, who has staunchly opposed Abubakar’s presidential ambition and who openly ed Tinubu in the 2023 election. The situation in the Labour Party is no better as the national chairman, Julius Abure, has fallen out with Obi.

The report says that with election season expected to commence in just 13 months, discussions between Obi and Atiku are said to have entered an advanced stage, and former governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State is said to be part of the discussions.

If they're setting up a new political party in 2025 then their target should be 2031, not 2027. There's no way a 2yr old party is going to defeat an incumbent, corrupt party in 2027. It's just not realistic.

I believe due to wikes hold and influence on PDP they are looking at starting afresh, but they need either time or major opposition strategies to create awareness and be strong contenders to APC.

Tinubu will send some moles to infiltrate that new party again just like he is orchestrating that In PDP and LP. It's hard to wrestle power from a man like Tinubu who is ready to fight dirty to retain power unlike a refined gentleman like Jonathan.

I didn't vote Tinubu to start with and with his current performance, I doubt anyone with a functioning brain will honestly vote him.
Actually the worst mistake NIGERIANS made was handing power to a man like Tinubu who know how to wield power. At this point,only a military coup can oust Tinubu and I doubt our military are interested in that.

You guys overrate Tinubu so much honestly

Take out el rufai Tinubu would never get APC ticket

If Buhari had made a decision on a candidate Tinubu would never have gotten the ticket

Thinking Tinubu unless he wins people over to him I don't see the rigging that would help him

I really wish Obi can step aside because obi contesting is what's still given Tinubu some assurance

Let the El rufai removed him cos he is not even powerful in kaduna again. Stop making noise, am not a fan of Tinubu but he is a political juggernaut and a desperate politician who will do anything or go any length to get what he want. With kaduna governor and now Shehu Sanni, you think El rufai can't deliver his state to any party he before 2027. The only candidate that can win Tinubu is former president Jonathan. Even if Atiku and Obi ran on t ticket, they will still lose. Many people in south south and south west who voted for Obi, will see him as a desperate and not good person he claims to be. The Northerners will still vote for Tinubu because the governors expecially will want to be the beneficiary in 2023. Only Jonathan will command votes across all board. I don't even seeing him contesting again and with is closeness to Tinubu it will be difficult.

Have u ever lived in the North? ... It's impossible to rig in the North if you are unpopular no matter what

Try it and instant death... No inec official would even take that risk... Ask OBJ

Tinubu is so unpopular in the North today unless that changes he won't get 25%

Wisdom is expensive! That Tinubu could sway El Rufai who had been campaigning against him since 2020, to his side is enough to make you know that Tinubu is even underrated.... Saraki messed with him and hes trying hard to not to remain a history today...

Same Rufai is currently in moribund...

He (Tinubu)totally destroyed LP.

HE knows what Nigerian politicians want which is money and power and he knows how to lured them with it...

No strong politician without loyalists... and you must know how to gain your loyalists...All these qualities and many more, Tinubu possesses with a high touch of maverick, smartness, and sagacity with alot of brute and ogbaa in readiness to give WHATEVER it takes to get his mission accomplished... and you think any party or politician will remove him without the approach better than his paraded by all these weak and unintelligent Obi, ATIKU, of the almost extinct PDP, non existent LP and a new party that will surface at the 11th hour..


grow above your wisdom to embrace other peoples views boy

Tinubu's performance so far has shown he won't be getting massive vote and will only be relying on rigging. He is hell bent on winning all state for APC. It's those APC governors that will do the dirty works.Im hoping Tinubu won't get elected for the second time but I just have to realistic as well bro.

U are still thinking in the past.

I am currently in the north,u see many northern politicians would not be re-elected come 2027 if they chose to remain in APC.
The hate for APC in the north is so much that,I doubt if there could be anything that would swing the vote for
them.
If u mention APC any where in the north,u might be injured especially if u refer to Tinubu.

They will lose terribly ..this is what Tinubu and Wike has been looking for . They know people will leave PDP due to Wike meddlesome behaviours and definitely some will leave APC . Most likely those who leave these two parties will form another party which makes it 3 big parties . And don't forget Wike PDP wil also bring out their own candidate . By the time 3 big candidates contest against a president like tinubu, the elections is as good as won by Tinubu from the very first votes
