As the 2027 general elections draw closer, a renowned Pentecostal cleric, Rev. Dr. Jerry Nwachukwu, has cautioned the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, not to consider deputising anyone, but should run for presidency.
Nwachukwu asserted that Obi, a beloved national figure, could win the presidency under any political platform.
The cleric also predicted how Obi could defeat President Bola Tinubu with strong regional backing. …CONTINUE READING
The cleric warned that Obi would be killing his political career if he decided to play the role of a running mate to anyone in the 2027 presidential election, as his supporters worldwide would dump him.
Obi, who has allegedly joined the coalition to unseat President Tinubu, has reportedly been urged to step down and become Atiku Abubakar’s running mate in a single-term presidency.
Many concerned Nigerians, including the Obidient Movement, have, however, insisted that Obi is being positioned for the presidency.
But Dr. Nwachukwu suggested that Obi, being a notable and admirable political figure, could be supported under any political platform, but would be rejected by Nigerians if he deputised any other person.
In an exclusive interview with TheTalk correspondent in his church at No. 19 Ezendu Street, Nkpor-Agu, Idemili North local government area of Anambra state, Nwachukwu said:
“In 2027, Peter Obi should never accept to deputise anybody under any circumstances.
“Any political party he joins, Nigerians will still vote for him. But instead of being a running mate for anyone, he should not run at all, because, well-meaning Nigerians, especially the Obidient Movement, will reject such a ticket.
“Accepting to be a running mate will be the worst political decision he has ever made, no matter the promise attached to it. Instead of Peter Obi accepting the role of a running mate, and disgracing himself at the polls, he should allow President Tinubu to go for a second tenure and complete the slot of the South.
Rev. Nwachukwu also predicted that if the major opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) should accept to make Peter Obi their concensus candidate, and other political parties also adopt him as their concensus candidate – with strong supports from the North, Southeast, and other places, he would defeat President Tinubu and the APC.
He, however, suggested that Obi should accept to be president for four years only, and then hand over the baton.
Am interested
I know Tinebu may not win again for he didn’t win before
The North will really vote for sdp whoever sdp adopt as their presidential candidate come 2027
You pastor should leave politics and face the calling of God for your life, revival is dying, things are turning upside down all the word, instead of showing concern for the perishing souls you are busy with politics. You fail to tell them the truth that judgements of God in hell is awaiting them if they fail to repent and turn their way back to God because of what you will eat. It is unfortunate that the that sinneth shall die and those pastors and clerics that has opportunities to tell them the absolute truth but failed.
The North will really vote for sdp to do away tunibu whoever sdp adopt as their presidential candidate come 2027
Well said
How do you intend to win APC/INEC in their own organised election and with about 32 state governors already joined with APC to protect their loot. Am waiting to see you do the impossible. I don’t lie to myself
Your prediction is only a tactics to give the incombent president another chance to win a second time Mr. Pastor if you really mean good for Mr. Peter Obi their split votes could have displaced APC by very great margin. So think twice if you actually have your members at heart and wish they get relief of these Borden we all going through.
Yes we will dump him.
Tribalism predictions and not divine predictions. Peter Obi can never be President of a united Nigeria. This is just common sense of what is real.
The cleric predictions can come to reality, if Peter Obi can put God first, follow its political manifest and do all needful things inrespect of policie/decision making.
Obi for president nothing like deputy, anything can happen.
I just dey laugh those of us wey still dey Nigeria the way hunger go take flog us if we by any means put APC again into power…… again it high time Nigerian stops all dis new road construction and start maintaining the old ones to standard then invest the money into manufacturing and production secondly give Nigerians quality education
