Atiku/Amaechi is not an ordinary ticket. It is going to be a rugged ticket. Amaechi represents the Buhari faction of the APC and Atiku represents the old PDP and the whole of the North. Amaechi is a battle tested politician. I think the ticket will excite Nigerians.
“Elections are rigged in Nigeria because Nigerians want it to be rigged. I will do whatever is possible to protect votes come 2027 election, but it is now left for Nigerians to decide if their votes will count. Because if you vote and stay in your polling unit and insist your votes must count, it will be counted. But some Nigerians would rather vote and go home, then hours later go to night vigil to start praying, because they think they are the only ones God created. The problem of Nigeria is leadership”.
-Mr. Peter Obi, NDC presidential candidate on his recent visit to Washington, D.C.
SWEET NEWS FROM ABIA STATE.
Two persons were kidnapped in Umuawa-Alaocha community in Umuahia-North local government area by Fulani bandits. A male and a female. The kidnappers called the family of the female victim, and demanded for ransom, or else they will kill her. After much negotiation, they brought the ransom to 10 million naira last. Youths from the community felt challenged since the police or the military was not going to act, and their people are just suffering in the hands of kidnappers. They mobilized themselves in their hundreds to comb the forests around umuahia-north to rescue their people
They entered the forest from different directions in groups and in large numbers. Lo and behold, they spotted the kidnappers, rounded the 6 of them up, and rescued the two victims.
They have reunited the victims with their families and also handed over the 6 kidnappers to the police.
Your outing was woefully unfortunate. You appeared like a disgruntled and jealous competitor of the presidential candidate of your own party.
You didn’t, even by mistake, SELL your presidential candidate to the electorate. You didn’t even say anything complementary about him. You sounded like it ought to have been you flying the flag. And you went on to then say so directly.
You failed at your one and only job at that interview. SELL YOUR CANDIDATE. And, what this reveals is no longer deep. You don’t believe in their ticket. You think it ought to be you. You said you did them a favour.
Nearly an hour long interview and you could not sell your presidential candidate even with half a sentence. You also conveniently had ZERO words about the incumbent misgovernance happening in the country or any words to criticize the ruling govt for the state of the nation.
All anger, tension, snide remarks, vituperation, everything reserved for and directed at your own presidential candidate and his organic supporters.
@PeterObi should know he doesn’t have a strong ally in you. And we know he knows.
Fellow Nigerians
Today, we celebrate democracy and the enduring Nigerian spirit. For 27 unbroken years, since May 29, 1999, Nigerians have chosen their leaders through the ballot, witnessed peaceful transitions of power, and resolved disagreements in courtrooms and legislative chambers—not through violence. We have experienced the longest stretch of civilian rule in our history. Our democracy is not perfect, but it is ours, and we must continue to defend and strengthen it.
“President Tinubu has done what no Nigerian president has done in over 40 years.Nigerians must support him to do more” — political analyst,Obafemi George
Quick advice! Drop that Old politician ego… it doesn’t work in the new Nigeria these young people are trying to build. Atiku is where he is today because of his ego. You will go far without it. Thank you.
To those Obidients trying to be politically correct after that nonsensical communique, Theo’s appointment and the Seriaki Dickson Arise News interview.
I have one question for you:
have you ever seen or heard that a party leader went on national news(in election season) to tell the world that he is more qualified to contest than the presidential flag-bearer of his party?
Meanwhile, Obi has never disrespected him in anyway.
Please miss me with that political correctness
The Dickson guy,why e no run for the president or indicate interest first,which stupid chairman of a party will go to an interview to be talking thrash
Instead of other political parties to focus on their candidates or direct their vim to the current government but no, it's OBI Morning, Afternoon and Night.

Dear Senator Henry Seriake Dickson @iamHSDickson
While I take my time to properly address your allusion of me not playing by the rules which I consider very disingenuous seeing how I followed the process and even when you had insisted there would be no primaries for senate I let things go and asked my teeming supporters to focus on the bigger picture, I toured the FCT pacifying my supporters and party people who rightfully felt disrespected as they were all waiting at their respective headquarters for primaries that never happened. (I played field politics, I never waited for anyone to give me ticket), I would like you as the National leader to watch this video again!
This part of the interview was so painfully appalling to watch. It looked as if you were insecure and in competition with your Presidential Candidate. Your first one on one interview after primaries and instead of selling your candidates and giving confidence to people on how set the road to winning the 2027 election was, you made it about yourself.
With all due respect sir, it looks as if you consider the NDC a Special Purpose Vehicle whose aim has been achieved just by being registered instead of a Political Party whose aim is to win the 2027 General election decisively!!!! The registration of NDC should be a means to an end and not an end in itself.
As a leader of a Political party, your number one job in that interview was to pacify aspirants many of whom are rightfully aggrieved and secondly to call on supporters to bear with the party and support it but you ended up antagonising the very people you would need to win election. Every vote counts! A leader must stoop to conquer!
No one can take away your leadership of NDC, no one is interested in that! The focus is on Nigeria is winning the 2027 election!
It looked as if you are fighting a war no one is waging with you. You don't have anything to prove to anyone, just lead! It is also interesting how as a leader i see you shifting the blame with any process that doesn't go well or is called out. Even in this statement below, you did! Take all responsibility! The party is young. It was overwhelmed. Mistakes will be made. Accepting the mistakes and being accountable is how the party will get better.
There is a whole battle ahead of us. Rescuing Nigeria from the current state it is in, should be the main focus not people's fragile ego!
Let me round up with some words from Jim Rohn: IF WHAT YOU DID YESTERDAY IS STILL LOOKING BIG TO YOU TODAY, THEN YOU ARE NOT DOING ENOUGH!!!
