Members of the pro-Peter Obi group, known as Obidients, have called on former Vice President Atiku Abubakar to step down from the 2027 presidential race and support Obi to secure the African Democratic Congress (ADC) ticket.
“The move by the minister is to stave off competition for the ticket of the PDP,” a party source said.
“Peter Obi is our product and the PDP indeed wants to get him back… any political party that will have him will be to their advantage,” said PDP’s Ibrahim Abdullahi.
The trio, alongside other prominent figures including ex-Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha, were seen offering prayers for the repose of Buhari’s soul
“There shall be primary elections in the Labour Party, and no aspirant will be favored this time around,” Arabambi stated.
“What we have agreed is that whoever comes out of an open primary will enjoy the support of all,” Amaechi stated.
“The ADC has no preferred or favourite presidential aspirant. We have set out to first build a platform that would be attractive and acceptable to the majority of Nigerians…”, ADC leaders said.
Obi also confirmed his intention to run for president again, saying, “If anyone asks, let them know I am in the race, and no one does it better than me.”
