Nigerians Not Ready For Peter Obi Presidency – Babangida Aliyu

 

Babangida Aliyu, former Governor of Niger State has said Nigerians are not ready for a Peter Obi presidency.

NAIJA NEWS NG reports that Babangida Aliyu said this on Channels Television’s Political Paradigm. He added that his party the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has been rooting for Peter Obi to run with Atiku Abubakar

He added that Peter Obi won’t win the 2023 election even though he is loved by the youths but might win the 2027 election .

“Peter Obi is my good friend and a former member of my former Governors forum,” Aliyu said.

“A very excellent person. His candidature, in terms of the Presidency, – I think he will make some name now. But he may be able to make it only in 2027, 2031. But 2023? Too early.

“Even though the young people might go for him, the name is not dropping everywhere else. I doubt if Nigerians are ready for him now as a presidential person.

“I would have loved him as a Vice President. Many of us were rooting for him to be Vice President to Atiku again.”
