@LsholaSodiq

Peter Obi didn't see the vision; he was afraid to be defeated. He knew he could not face Atiku in the primary election. Atiku has a better structure to win. No be by online noise.

@E62943Ekene

Peter means rock. Obi means man. Therefore, Peter is a man and his rocks.

@kokoetim

Staying ahead of the game is how Peter has survived till now. From the ruling party not wanting him on the ballot, to being lured into a foreclosed alliance that was meant to throw up Atiku. All the others were just props to swell the ranks of the ADC for Atiku.

@Saliu_ade

The party that was supposed to be different is running the same script. Nigeria has been watching this same movie since 1999, and we keep buying tickets hoping the ending changes. It never does.
