The Minister of Aviation an Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, says that ahead of the 2027 general election, any presidential ticket where Peter Obi is made the running mate to Atiku Abubakar will fail and can never unseat President Tinubu.
In an interview with Channels TV on Sunday, August 3, Keyamo said if such a ticket is floated by the African Democratic Congress ADC, the Christians will not give them their votes likewise the South East electorates who voted massively for Obi during the 2023 general elections.
“This so-called ADC, in 2027, what they are working on is to bring Peter Obi and Atiku (Abubakar) together to join those numbers and beat our over eight million votes. Let me tell you why it is wrong. If you make Peter Obi the deputy to Atiku, three demographic factors delivered Peter Obi in 2023, but the three will collapse.
The other candidates were Muslims, and so there was only one Christian candidate, and the Christians went to one candidate. The South-East felt cheated, so the South-East went to one point because of the Igbo man.
And the third demography, the Obidients, young Nigerians who felt they were angry, they wanted a younger person and all of that because the other candidates were older than him (Obi).So those three demography delivered the 6 million votes Obi had in 2023.
Once you make Obi the deputy to Atiku, the Christian demography will pull out of that 6 million votes. Don’t forget the President also has a pastor who is his wife and so that Christian demography will snatch some of them and increase our votes. Don’t forget too that that South East demography that supported him, once it is Atiku, they will pull out. They will not support him. The pastors cannot come out campaigning for an 80-year-old Muslim president. They will not do that”
