Social media activist Martin Vincent Otse, better known as VeryDarkMan, has expressed that the Labour Party’s presidential candidate in the last election, Peter Obi, has a very slim chance of winning the presidency in 2027.
He also remarked that the presidential candidates from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), Atiku Abubakar and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, respectively, also have little to no chance of attaining the presidency.
He, however, noted that the opposition supporters are underestimating the strength of the incumbent President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The activist made these comments in response to reports suggesting that Obi’s recent visit to Atiku might signal a potential merger of opposition parties.
VeryDarkMan asserted that even with such a merger, it would be challenging for the opposition to unseat the current president in 2027.
“I’m sick of seeing the news of Peter Obi and Atiku planning a merger ahead of 2027 in bid to take over the presidency.
“But the truth is, Peter Obi, Atiku or Kwankwaso cannot smell the presidential seat in 2027.
“The problem with the opposition is that they underestimate the incumbent president, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
“With time, you will realise that Tinubu is actually the greatest politician of all time. I hate to say it but it’s fact.
“The man is smart, intelligent and desperate. He knows how to get what he wants. Don’t joke with him. He will remain in office till 2032.
“The opposition should give up on the merger plans. Peter Obi 2027 is not possible,” he said.
