On Thursday a group of aggrieved members of All Progressive Congress (APC) purportedly from northern Nigeria and led by a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Mr Lawal Babachir, formally endorsed Mr Peter Obi of Labour Party for the 2023 presidential election. The group hinged their decision on not backing the candidate of their party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, over his decision to pick Senator Keshim Shettima from as running-mate. The decision not to back their Party's candidate was based on the fact that both Tinubu and Shetima are Muslims from the South and North respectively.

While I, like many others, commend the Babachir led group for turning their back on the divisive Muslim-Muslim pair of APC, I find their decision to support Mr Peter Obi as morally unjust and in conflict with the group's position on Tinubu/Shetima pair.

It is an open secret that Obi picked Senator Datti Baba-Ahmed, a Muslim from Kaduna State as running-mate, yet, he strategically schemed out Northerners and Muslims from strategic positions in his Presidential Campaign Council. Without mincing word, Obi's Campaign team is heavily "Anambranised" and "Christianised" (if I must use both words) - which is as dangerous for the country as Muslim-Muslim pair of APC if allowed to occupy the position he is running for. In other words, the APC Muslim-Muslim pair and pan-Anambra/Christian team of LP Campaign are same coin of different sides.

In the LP's Campaign Composition, Peter Obi, a Christian from Anambra State, is the Presidential candidate, Julius Abure, a Christian from Edo State is the Chairman of the Advisory Board and the National Chairman of the Party, Chief Clement Ojukwu, a Christian from Anambra State is the Secretary of the Campaign, Dr. Doyin Okupe, a Christian from Ogun State, is the campaign Director-General, Chief Oseloka Obaze, a Christian from Anambra State is both the LP PCC Campaign Manager and Deputy Director-General of the Campaign, Mr Valentine Ozigbo, a Christian also from Anambra State is a Senior Campaign Advisor to Peter Obi and so on. The only top positions ceded to the North and Muslims are the positions of LP's running-mate (Datti Ahmed) and Campaign Council Chairman (Mr Mohammed Zarewa).

From the aforementioned, Peter Obi shut out not just Northern Muslims but also Southern Muslims and non-Anambra Christians (Save Okupe and Julius) from strategic positions in the LP Campaign Council. This clearly shows that Obi and LP are as guilty as APC in sectionalism in the composition of their team. To make matter worse, Peter Obi denied LP' National Secretary Alhaji Umar Farouk Ibrahim, a Muslim from the North, who ordinarily should be the LP' PCC Secretary, and gave the position to Clement Ojukwu, a Christian from Anambra State, who is the Party's Organising Secretary.

If Babachir could listen to the voices of majority Nigerians who are aligned with the candidature of Atiku Abubakar and Ifeanyi Okowa, the Presidential and Vice presidential candidates of Peoples Democratic Party respectively. This is because only the pair represents Nigeria's diversity and unity in terms of zoning, religion and region.

In the PDP Council, the Candiate, Atiku Abubakar is a Muslim from Adamawa State, the running mate, Okowa, is a Christian from Delta State, the Campaign Chairman is a Christian from Akwa Ibom State, Campaign DG is a Muslim from Sokoto State, the Party National Chairman, Dr. Iyorchia Ayu, is a Christian from Benue State, the Party Board of Trustees Chairman, Sen. Adolphus Wabara is a Christian from Abia State, and so on.

Perhaps, Babachir saw these yet aligned with Obi Campaign Council that is even more sectional than that of his party while sidestepping the Atiku-Okowa team that represents Nigeria's ethnic and religious
diversity in its composition due to mischief and hypocrisy. Maybe Babachir's public endorsement of the sectional Peter Obi Campaign is a strategy by Asiwaju Tinubu to ensure balkanisation of opposition votes to pave way for his victory knowing that majority of Nigerians are against his candidacy. This may be true when one take into account that same Tinubu was instrumental in the nomination of Babachir as SGF and same Babachir almost singlehandedly purchased APC Presidential nomination form for Tinubu.

Meanwhile, in all fairness and equity, it is just for all Nigerians to reject Muslim-Muslim ticket of the ruling party as well as the 'Anambranisation and Christianisation' schemes of Labour Party. Our diversity must reflect all that we do - this is the only way we can #RecoverNigeria. This is the reason majority of Nigerians are aligned with Atiku-Okowa presidential ticket.

God Bless Nigeria

So shameful, Atiku & PDP have lost the election.

Even Your own state of origin, won't deliver for Atiku and PDP.

A party without structure or plan cannot rule us again, we refuse to go back to another 8 years of suffering and insecurity.
Atiku/Okowa 2023 is the only candidate with recovery plan

Obviously, Babashir endorsement of the LP candidate is the handwork of the APC to further pave way for APC's victory, both Babashir and the LP Presidential Candidate are working for Tinubu's victory

Point cleared atiku and PDP makes absolute sense when it comes carrying all nigerians along, without any tribalism

The chronic Igbo hater with no principles except dancing for a morsel of food.

Putting sentiment, ethnicity, religion aside People's Democratic Party reflect True Nigeria Symbols in her composition of appointments towards 2023 General Election.

So therefore Nigerians should choose the best and right candidate at the poll, without mincing a word AtikuOkowa Team of Unifier represent good governance and rules of law.

Fellow Nigerians Vote Wisely and Vote for Tested, Trusted, Accountability and Integrity.


#RecoverNigerià

Nice write up and true to the spirit of our Federation, it is only right that these appointments reflect the true spirit of nationhood.
Kudos Tonye

Trash from another PDP 2.0

Lol see PDP miscreants everywhere

Babachir Lawal and his other APC aggrieved Northern christians should have back Atiku/Okowa. They are the only candidates with inclusiveness from all religions

I don't even know why Obi haven't realize that he's just doing campaign for nothing, there's no higher chance of winning for him at all.
Believe me, Atiku has more higher chance than any other party.
Atiku wins In Sha Allah.
#RecoverNigeria

AdamawaLastBon:
Sometimes I wonder how elder David Babachir Lawal reason to be honest. Obi's aspiration doesn't represent the interest of Nigeria and Nigerians everything about Obi and Labour Party is lopsided so I don't get how Babachir can justified his decision to support Obi instead of a well balanced ticket that has Atiku and Okowa on it. Atiku is the best choice to fight the APC with because he is the only one who can defeat the Muslim Muslim ticket.

Which Atiku, after 8yrs of MBuhari, a fulani man handing over to another Fulani man of same tribe a section of the country,. Does that make any sense of fairness, justice and equity to you?

Coming from a PDP supporter that supports Atiku who was apologizing to Islamist extremists over the death of Deborah.

Atiku is seeking votes from killers and Peter Obi is your major problem, can't you see how stupid you sound?

Teebouye995:
That doesn't still change the fact that the campaign counsel is heavily loaded with Christians & South Easterners.

Are Muslims no longer part of Nigeria?
Are people outside SE no longer part of Nigeria?

These are the questions you should ask yourself

PDP Campaign Council

Chairman - Gov. Udom (Christian)

Vice Chairman - Gov. Seyi (Christian)

BOT Chairman - Wabara (Christian)

Presidential candidate - Atiku (Moslem)

VP candidate - Okowa (Christian)

National chairman - Ayu (Moslem)

DG - Tambuwal (Moslem)

Deputy DG Operations - Liyel (Christian)

Deputy DG Admin - Adewale (Christian)

Deputy DG Technical - Raymond (Christian)

PDP is hypocrites and a bittered ex.

This article is a fact and it perfectly explains the lies and attitudinal error of Lawal. Atiku is the only one with a nationalistic appeal. If Muslim Muslim is a no Christian Christian ticlet would be an error too.

PDP is the only party based on equity , fairness and justice ... We must do away with sentiments and hypocrisy only truth will save our country ... Atiku is the only pan Nigerian candidate we have for 2023 , together let's #RecoverNigeria

Dogara and rest already denied Babachir decision .I believe he will rethink about his decision

PDP is the only National party with everybody's interest .

When obvious truth are laid out , their are people that will defend the aberration and consider it normal and just. "He who comes to equity , must come with clean hands" He is not Obi is not a sincere Politician and do is the emergence of of his PCC sectionalism. However, the endorsement by babachir Lawal shows the level and backwardness of politicians who preach a thing and practice another.

Since Babachir Lawal lost the vice-presidential ticket of the APC, he has been running his mouth.

He is APC's version of Wike.

Now he has endorsed Obi.

I hate politicians who rock the boat of their parties whenever they don't have their ways.

It is puerile. It is childish.

And now, Obi supporters are healing him him.

He is no longer a corrupt SGF who used billions to cut grass and used his private company to siphon public funds.

Atiku is the next president.. inshallah

The only balanced team without ethnic sentiment or religious bias is PDP and Atiku. To allow equality, justice AMD fairness, Vote Atiku

In the LP's Campaign Composition, Peter Obi, a Christian from Anambra State, is the Presidential candidate, Julius Abure, a Christian from Edo State is the Chairman of the Advisory Board and the National Chairman of the Party, Chief Clement Ojukwu, a Christian from Anambra State is the Secretary of the Campaign, Dr. Doyin Okupe, a Christian from Ogun State, is the campaign Director-General, Chief Oseloka Obaze, a Christian from Anambra State is both the LP PCC Campaign Manager and Deputy Director-General of the Campaign, Mr Valentine Ozigbo, a Christian also from Anambra State is a Senior Campaign Advisor to Peter Obi and so on. The only top positions ceded to the North and Muslims are the positions of LP's running-mate (Datti Ahmed) and Campaign Council Chairman (Mr Mohammed Zarewa).

From the aforementioned, Peter Obi shut out not just Northern Muslims but also Southern Muslims and non-Anambra Christians (Save Okupe and Julius) from strategic positions in the LP Campaign Council. This clearly shows that Obi and LP are as guilty as APC in sectionalism in the composition of their team. To make matter worse, Peter Obi denied LP' National Secretary Alhaji Umar Farouk Ibrahim, a Muslim from the North, who ordinarily should be the LP' PCC Secretary, and gave the position to Clement Ojukwu, a Christian from Anambra State, who is the Party's Organising Secretary.

If Babachir could listen to the voices of majority Nigerians who are aligned with the candidature of Atiku Abubakar and Ifeanyi Okowa, the Presidential and Vice presidential candidates of Peoples Democratic Party respectively. This is because only the pair represents Nigeria's diversity and unity in terms of zoning, religion and region.

In the PDP Council, the Candiate, Atiku Abubakar is a Muslim from Adamawa State, the running mate, Okowa, is a Christian from Delta State, the Campaign Chairman is a Christian from Akwa Ibom State, Campaign DG is a Muslim from Sokoto State, the Party National Chairman, Dr. Iyorchia Ayu, is a Christian from Benue State, the Party Board of Trustees Chairman, Sen. Adolphus Wabara is a Christian from Abia State, and so on.

Perhaps, Babachir saw these yet aligned with Obi Campaign Council that is even more sectional than that of his party while sidestepping the Atiku-Okowa team that represents Nigeria's ethnic and religious
diversity in its composition due to mischief and hypocrisy. Maybe Babachir's public endorsement of the sectional Peter Obi Campaign is a strategy by Asiwaju Tinubu to ensure balkanisation of opposition votes to pave way for his victory knowing that majority of Nigerians are against his candidacy. This may be true when one take into account that same Tinubu was instrumental in the nomination of Babachir as SGF and same Babachir almost singlehandedly purchased APC Presidential nomination form for Tinubu.

Meanwhile, in all fairness and equity, it is just for all Nigerians to reject Muslim-Muslim ticket of the ruling party as well as the 'Anambranisation and Christianisation' schemes of Labour Party. Our diversity must reflect all that we do - this is the only way we can #RecoverNigeria. This is the reason majority of Nigerians are aligned with Atiku-Okowa presidential ticket.

God Bless Nigeria
