Bashir Ahmad Warns Obidient Movement on 2027 Election
On Saturday, Bashir Ahmad, a former media aide to the late ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, warned members of the Obidient Movement against the belief that Peter Obi, the presidential candidate for the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC), would finish second in the 2027 presidential election. Ahmad characterized such beliefs as delusional, asserting that those who hold them do not grasp the current political dynamics.
He stated, “Sentiment and online enthusiasm are not substitutes for a serious assessment of the numbers, structures, regional calculations and electoral realities.” In the 2023 presidential election, Peter Obi, who was the former governor of Anambra State, finished third, trailing behind Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Bola Tinubu, the eventual winner from the All Progressives Congress (APC).
