UNSEEN POWER BROKERS CONSIDER PETER OBI, EL RUFAI JOINT TICKET IN 2027

According to insider sources, dissatisfaction with Tinubu’s administration has fueled discussions among unseen power brokers, who are now considering a joint presidential ticket featuring Peter Obi and Nasir El-Rufai.

These Unseen Power Brokers are considering Peter Obi and El-Rufai Ticket to Challenge Tinubu in 2027.

With the 2027 presidential elections looming on the horizon, where ambitions collide and alliances shift like desert sands, a new political narrative is emerging, with power brokers in the North reportedly mulling over a strategic alliance to unseat President Bola Tinubu.

The rationale behind this proposed alliance stems from a belief among the power brokers that Peter Obi, the former governor of Anambra State, is renowned for his widespread appeal and political strength across various regions of Nigeria, including the Southeast, Southwest, South-South, and parts of the North Central.

However, his reach into the Core-Northern states, according to sources familiar with the situation, is deemed insufficient without a strong partner from the north.

According to PIDOMNIGERIA’s findings, the Obi and El-Rufai partnership is viewed as the most potent force capable of ousting Tinubu from power in 2027.

PIDOMNIGERIA wrote: “In Nigeria’s politics, there are unseen power brokers. They check the strength and weaknesses of candidates before forming alliance.

“From a very reliable source, as i was informed, the Obi and El-Rufai combo that is being proposed is the only formidable force that can flush Tinubu out of power in 2027. That is why it is being considered at the moment.

“According to what I gathered, the power brokers believe Obi has a cult followership, general love, acceptance, and political strength to pull massive votes around SE, SW, SS, and around some North Central states. But he needs a formidable force to sell and drive his candidacy into the Core-Northern states.

“Firstly, a hard-line Muslim with political strength to market Obi around the KKK states in the north so he could be accepted.

Secondly, someone who is well educated and smart enough to checkmate Peter Obi because of trust issues between both regions.”

“Thirdly, someone who will automatically succeed Peter Obi to become president, banking on Peter Obi’s political support.

They found that person in Nasiru El-Rufai. The plan is to adopt another political party and see to the reality of this plan.” “It is left to both men to either accept or reject the proposal.In 2023, the Obi/Kwankwaso combo did not work, as both men want to be president. Kwankwaso refused to be a vice presidential candidate to Peter Obi.”

    LAGOS LAWMAKERS IMPEACH SPEAKER AMID MULTIBILLION-NAIRA FRAUD ALLEGATIONS Members of the Lagos State House of Assembly on Monday impeached Speaker Mudashiru Obasa, accusing him of multiple statutory and financial infractions. Mr Obasa was subsequently replaced by his deputy Lasbat Meranda. Mrs Meranda, who represents Apapa Constituency 1, was also a former chief whip of the House. The removal came days after The Gazette reported how Mr Obasa oversaw the withdrawal of N43.5 billion for back up vehicles for lawmakers, as well as other controversial activities. Mr Obasa was in Atlanta Unuted States of America, when he was impeached. Mr Obasa, 52, was first elected Speaker on June 8, 2015, resuming office alongside former one-term governor Akinwunmi Ambode. Repeated charges of fraud and political thuggery have marked his speakership. In 2020, The Gazette published a series of investigations detailing how Mr Obasa diverted Lagos funds to his personal firms and bank accounts. Sahara Reporters at the time also uncovered Mr Obasa’s assets across Lagos. He was invited to be questioned by the EFCC after the anti-graft office became overwhelmed by media reports of Mr Obasa’s mismanagement. He denied all allegations, and no charges were filed after he met with detectives.
