Former Ayodele Fayose has cautioned that the African Democratic Congress (ADC) risks losing the 2027 presidential election if former candidate Peter Obi is not included on its ticket.
Fayose made the remarks while assessing the performance of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu during the PDP national convention in Abuja on Sunday. He gave a mixed review of Tinubu’s administration, saying, “I’m happy with what Asiwaju is doing. You don’t have to have 100 percent of any issue before you are said to be doing well, but when you relate our past with our present, he is not doing well.”
On the opposition, Fayose stressed that ADC’s success largely depends on Obi’s participation. “I told you that if Obi is not on the ballot of ADC, that is the end of ADC. It looks like now that Obi will not; Atiku Abubakar will get the ticket,” he stated.
He also expressed doubts about Obi’s political prospects, adding, “It’s impossible for him to go back to the Labour Party. Obi is a good guy, he’s a fantastic guy, but to become the president at this time is difficult.”
