Peter Obi has Withdrawn Presidential Ambition – Bwala

Daniel Bwala, spokesman for President Bola Tinubu, announced on July 7, 2025, that Peter Obi had practically abandoned his 2027 presidential aspiration to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar inside the African Democratic Congress (ADC) alliance.  According to Bwala, Obi has been reduced to a secondary position and is now apparently contesting for the vice-presidential ticket against former Minister of Transportation Rotimi Amaechi, also a member of the ADC coalition.


 Bwala added that Obi had accepted the role as Director-General of the ADC campaign, signaling a planned sequence where Atiku will serve a single presidential term before Obi possibly takes over.  He branded Obi as "a non-starter" for the presidency and stated that Obi’s aspirations had been downplayed in favor of Atiku’s candidacy inside the alliance.


 However, this story drastically conflicts with Peter Obi’s public pronouncements.  Obi has continuously maintained his ambition to run for president in 2027, denying speculations that he may take a vice-presidential seat under Atiku or any other contender.  In interviews, Obi highlighted that no negotiations about his becoming a running mate had taken place and that he remains a vigorous member of the Labour Party, while simultaneously engaging in the larger opposition alliance under the ADC platform attempting to remove President Bola Tinubu.


 Obi has established a clear vision for his presidential candidacy, vowing to provide stability and excellent government within a single four-year term if elected.  He has questioned the present administration’s handling of the economy and government, pledging to lead with compassion and choose competent people.


 The ADC alliance, which comprises notable opposition personalities including Atiku Abubakar, Obi, Rotimi Amaechi, and others, was created to unite opposition power against the current president in the 2027 elections.  The alliance is utilizing the combined electoral power of Atiku and Obi, who together garnered over 12 million votes in the 2023 election, exceeding the votes of the current president.


 Political experts and watchers are intently following the dynamics inside the ADC, especially the issue of who would stand aside for whom as the coalition finalizes its presidential ticket.  Despite Bwala’s comments, Obi himself has stayed solid on his presidential aspirations, confirming his resolve to seek the 2027 election as the major candidate, not as a running mate.


 While Daniel Bwala claims that Peter Obi has conceded his presidential ambition to Atiku Abubakar and is now vying for the vice-presidential slot within the ADC coalition, Peter Obi has publicly denied these claims, maintaining his intention to run for president in 2027 and rejecting any notion of being Atiku’s deputy.  The scenario reflects continuing talks and power maneuvers among the opposition as they prepare for the approaching election.
