A former chairman of the Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC), Barrister John Nwobodo, has stated that it will not be politically proper for the former presidential candidate of the Labour Party in 2023, Peter Obi to deputise a northern candidate in 2027.

Nwobodo, a former governorship candidate of the Accord Party in Enugu State stated this in an exclusive interview with LEADERSHIP in Enugu.

He said instead of deputising a northern candidate in 2027, Obi should forget any presidential ambition.

Nwobodo insisted Obi has really created an impact in Nigeria’s political landscape, saying he does not think the former presidential candidate is a desperate politician who will run for political office at all cost.

“I do not think that it would make political sense for Obi to deputise a Northern candidate in 2027 instead of doing that he should not run.

“Mr. Obi has really created an impact in the political landscape of Nigeria. I do not think that he is a desperate politician who would run for a political office at all cost” Nwobodo stated.

He, however, warned that it will take extraordinary measures to defeat the All Progressive Congress (APC) in the presidential election in 2027.

Nwobodo said the APC is well entrenched in terms of membership and spread coupled with high network Nigerians in its fold.

“Without pandering to the political sentiments or emotions, it would take extraordinary measures to defeat APC in 2027. I say so because the party is well entrenched in terms of membership and spread coupled with high networth Nigerians in its fold.

“The problem of leadership in Nigeria is not one of the party nomenclature but a deep-rooted problem of lack of patriotism and the negative mindset of most politicians who see politics as a tool for aggrandizement of power and money.

“But returning to the question, I think the only kind of opposition that can wrestle power from the APC is the opposition that would field new breed promoted by an amalgamation or coalition of political parties and a well mobilized citizens. Any political arrangement that favours the old politicians would hit the rock.’ he stated.

Haha 😛

Okay o

The appeal of Obi was because he ran for President. If he runs for vice President he will lose that appeal because those who believed in him will see him as a fool

How can over 6 million people believe in you enough to give you their votes, only for you to turn around 4 years later and tell them that what you're worthy of is vice-president?

That's terrible, better not run at all

Bigoted confused bingo

Why are you meddling inthe affairs of Nigeria when Nigeria is not your creation but the creation of the British?

DMerciful:

You don't need Atiku/Obi ticket to boot put Tinubu

Neither Obi nor Atiku needs to run before Nigerians decide not to vote Tinubu

The risk is too much to not make it watertight.

A second term of Tinubu will do irreversible damage.

The options are Obi - El Rufai or Atiku - Obi

Obi is a desperate politician for Aso rock. He will be glad to deputise Atiku, El Rufai or Kwankwaso.

Obi is that dumb and foolish

Obi can never be president or vice president. He is a gutter material

Are you ready to give him his Biafra because you are the one delaying the referendum.

Run along, this is above your intellect

Las las peter obi will settle for Senate

All these 30k boys..smh

You don receive yours? Me I never see o.

As the admin, look into my case

2027 will be the most easiest election Tinubu will win, reason being that

El- Rufai moving to SDP is strategic , his purpose is to gain momentum in the north and divide northern votes for anyone that thinks they can defeat Apc in the north

Tinubu owns wike, wike has the judiciary

Inec chairman is Tinubu errand boy

El- Rufai is a mole for Tinubu, he’ll be the next president after Tinubu…

Other political parties are about repeating the same mistake of 2023…

Tinubu owns the senate


So tell me how any body thinks he can defeat Tinubu



The surest betting option I have ever seen is Tinubu winning 2027… the thing sure die…


I only pity Nigerians that wants to vote Tinubu out, it’s just waste of time and waste of voting materials.

That way that someone will read his book for exam, only to notice the teacher sets what he/ she didn’t teach you… your reading last night becomes a waste

Keep the advice to yourself, anything to remove tinubu is okay by Nigerians

I am obidient n will vote tinubu

Did you vote Obi 2023?

bdon12:

I am obidient n will vote tinubu

Gutter advice

Pride before a fall nwobodo has forgotten atiku contested for d prisendecy 1993 and still brought himself down to be Obasanjo deputy

What will obi gain if he repeats the 2023 feat by contesting and failing again in 2027? Nigerian politics is very complicated no southern politician can will win a presidential election without strong northern support.

If Obi runs in 2027 and loses, assuming elections are free and fair, then it means that Nigerians don't want him. The man is not desperate to be President. All he can do is put himself foward and let Nigerians make their choice

APC moles on the move , obi shud deputize atiku if need be

You have to wonder where Tinubu's vote will come from. The North are tired of him, the SE don't like him, he is weak in the South South. Where will Tinubus vote come from except SW?

The Agulu man is not that bright.. he will deputize Atiku or even El-rufai in 2027 since he knows he stands no chance against PBAT.
The way Northerners are caressing Obi and his followers shows it's a done deal.

They should come to terms with the fact that there's no vacancy in Aso rock till 2031.
