Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Nyesom Wike has expressed doubts about former Vice President Atiku Abubakar securing the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential ticket for the 2027 election.

Speaking in a live media session on Wednesday, Wike argued that Nigerians have repeatedly rejected Atiku’s proposals in past elections.

Wike referred to Atiku’s recent comment that he would have handled Nigeria’s current challenges differently than President Bola Tinubu. In response, Wike remarked, “Nigerians have already reviewed his blueprint and made their decision.”

President Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, has sent a strong message to Peter Obi, cautioning him against forming a joint ticket with former Vice President Atiku Abubakar ahead of the 2027 elections. Onanuga believes Obi would not enjoy the same level of passionate support he had in 2023 if he decides to play second fiddle to Atiku.

According to him, many of Obi’s supporters were drawn to his individual candidacy and would likely not back an alliance that makes him a running mate. Speaking during an interview on Arise Television’s Prime Time, Onanuga maintained that the APC remains confident going into 2027. He said Tinubu’s work in office will speak volumes when it’s time to campaign again.

He added that while opposition figures like Obi, Atiku, and other political players are busy testing out alliances and strategies, the ruling party is focused on governance and delivery, which, he claims, will keep Tinubu in power beyond 2027. Obi and Atiku are currently involved in a political coalition that recently adopted the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as its platform.
