Six prominent Nigerians who’ve said Peter Obi cannot win 2023 presidency

Presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) Peter Obi has come under criticism over his aspiration to win the presidency.

Many have argued that Obi, who is faced with too many hurdles, lacks the alliance formation across political divides and standard political structures across Nigeria.

Some others mocked Obi and his army of independent volunteers - ‘Obi-dient Movement’ for leading in various polls on social media and online platforms instead of creating physical presence in remote areas of the country especially the north.

In all of these criticisms, some prominent persons in the country’s political circle have said the former Anambra Governor would never be president of the country in 2023.

Obi, seen as an ‘underdog’, will slug it out with candidates of the two major parties: Asiwaju Bola Tinubu (All Progressives Congress) and Atiku Abubakar (Peoples Democratic Party).
These are prominent individuals who have spoken against Obi’s candidacy:

Babangida Aliyu

Former Niger Governor Babangida Aliyu said Obi is a good candidate but 2023 would be too early for him to make it.

Aliyu said: “Peter Obi is my good friend and a former member of my former Governors forum. A very excellent person.
“His candidature, in terms of the Presidency, – I think he will make some name now. But he may be able to make it only in 2027, 2031. But 2023? Too early.

“Even though the young people might go for him, the name is not dropping everywhere else. I doubt if Nigerians are ready for him now as a presidential person.

“I would have loved him as a Vice President. Many of us were rooting for him to be Vice President to Atiku again.”

Ned Nwoko

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) senatorial candidate for Delta North, Prince Ned Nwoko declared Obi cannot win the 2023 presidency.

He advised the former Anambra Governor to return to the PDP and pick a ministerial appointment.

The former House of Representatives member said Peter Obi’s current party lacks the structure to produce the presidency despite his seemingly large support base.

He eulogised Obi, describing him as a very ‘frugal and conservative’ in his dealings while he was Governor.

“People Obi is a good man, I’ve known him for many years. When I did my Paris club refund for Anambra State, he impressed me.

“He impressed me because he will actually pick the phone to arrange my flight. He will pick his phone to book my hotel. And he was the governor.
“He actually came to London and didn’t come like other governors that came to see me, to give me instructions. He came alone, carrying his bag.

“We will like him back in the PDP. I would want to be one of those that’ll encourage him to come back to PDP. We can have him.”

But Chelsea later won.

Well, the six prominent Nigerians are not electoral umpires and only entitled to six votes.

Gone are the days when few self centered individuals will speak on behalf of millions of Nigerians.
