Nigerian activist, Deji Adeyanju has stated that it is possible for Peter Obi to win the 2023 presidential election against the Peoples Democratic Party and the All Progressives Congess.
According to Adeyanju who is the Convener of Concern Nigerians movement, Obi might win the 2023 presidential election if the Peoples Democratic Party and the All Progressives Congress field Northern candidates.
Adeyanju in a post on his Facebook account wrote, “The only Southerner who can defeat Atiku in APC now may be GEJ but if APC & PDP both pick Northerners and Nigerians with sense vote Peter Obi, the two Northerners may end up dividing their votes and Obi wins.
“PDP and APC are twins. Many Northern leaders will support GEJ because he’s doing only one term. When I analyze any situation, I consider circumstances.”
Recall that Obi dumped the main opposition party last week for the Labour Party.
Obi while giving the reason for joining the Labour Party said, “I have chosen a route that I consider to be in line with our aspirations and my mantra of taking the country from consumption to production; and that is the Labour Party which is synonymous with the people, workers, development, production, securing and uniting Nigerians as one family.”
