OBI OR NOTHING IS NOT A TICKET.

They want an Obi vs Atiku war because it achieves four dirty objectives at once: it splits the opposition, weakens coalition discipline, gives APC fresh oxygen, and turns serious politics into fanbase wrestling.

Atiku 2027 terrifies them, that is why they want him out of the presidential race, ko jo.

We will not play into their script. We will engage tactically, stay strategic, and position ourselves for victory.

And let us be honest, beyond the engineered trap, there also exists some real Obidients who genuinely believe that by shouting “Obi or nothing” loud enough, they can bully history into handing Obi the ADC ticket. That is not politics, that is emotional blackmail. A presidential ticket is not awarded by noise, hashtags, or fanbase pressure.

No such noise can circumvent Atiku becoming President of Nigeria in 2027. It is high time they stop projecting false hope, stop selling fantasy as strategy, and stop misleading loyal supporters with propaganda that cannot survive reality.

The intention remains crystal clear: pitch Atiku against Obi. Our responsibility is to correct negative impressions and dismantle false narratives engineered into their agenda, not to attack Obi.

As the Yoruba would say, a wise hunter does not destroy the hide of an animal while taking it in the bush, because beyond the meat, the skin still has value.

Atiku will win the primary, even APC spin doctors know this. Their real strategy is to frustrate Obi, provoke displeasure, and push him to walk away. They fear the political potency of a consolidated ticket, so they are working to rupture cohesion, manufacture tension between Atiku’s base and Obi’s camp, and create a chaotic atmosphere where there can be no meeting point.

Some of them, particularly from the South-West, are even adopting Igbo names to launch pseudo-attacks on Atiku. Their aim is to bait us into demonising Obi, so that after the primary, he leaves in anger, and the coalition collapses into fragments.

We must remain disciplined, calm, and strategic. We respond with intelligence, not emotion, with strategy, not rage.
