TAMBUWAL BREAKS SILENCE: DECLARE SUPPORT FOR OBI | ACCUSES APC DON’T WANT OBI ON THE 2027 BALLOT

Описание: Nigeria’s political landscape is heating up after a surprising move by Aminu Tambuwal. Just days after defecting from the Peoples Democratic Party to the African Democratic Congress, the former Sokoto governor made a bold declaration of support for Peter Obi ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
Tambuwal, who is among nine senators that recently moved to the ADC from different political parties, also made a shocking claim. According to him, powerful forces within the ruling All Progressives Congress are afraid of Peter Obi and may attempt to stop him from even appearing on the 2027 ballot.
His statement has sparked serious debate across Nigeria’s political space. Tambuwal argued that the growing support for Obi among ordinary Nigerians is one of the reasons he believes Obi represents a strong option for the country’s future.
What makes this endorsement even more surprising is the regional political dynamic. Tambuwal is from the northern region of Nigeria, the same region as former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, who has previously expressed opposition to the zoning principle in Nigerian politics.
The zoning debate is already creating tension within opposition circles and even inside the African Democratic Congress. Many political analysts believe the presidency should remain in the south after the victory of Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2023, which makes Peter Obi a major figure in conversations about the 2027 election.
With nine senators defecting and new alliances quietly forming, questions are now being asked about the future of Nigeria’s opposition politics and whether a powerful coalition could emerge before the next election.
Is this the beginning of a major political realignment in Nigeria?
Watch the full breakdown of Tambuwal’s statement, the ADC defections, and what this could mean for the 2027 presidential race.
