Atiku, Peter Obi Failed Together With PDP Ticket In 2019, They Can’t Win Individually In 2023 – Oshiomole

Former Edo State governor and a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Adams Oshiomole has said what the presidential candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party and Labour Party, Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi failed to get together, cannot be attained by either one of them.

 

Atiku and Obi were respectively the presidential and vice-presidential candidates of the PDP in the 2019 election, which was won by incumbent President, Muhammadu Buhari.

 

Oshiomhole said since they failed together in 2019, it is sure that they will fail individually in 2023 now that they are presidential candidates of separate parties.

 

The former governor during an interview on Channels TV on Wednesday said Atiku is more favoured in the South-South and the Southeast than in the northern part of the country.

 

“Just four years ago, his excellency Atiku Abubakar and my very dear friend Peter Obi, the former governor of Anambra, they had a combined ticket, and that combined force challenged the APC and Buhari. And unlike in 2015, Buhari scored more votes against the combined ticket of Atiku and Peter Obi.

 

“Together they failed, how can they possibly win divided and their constituency is the same? If you check Atiku’s votes, you will find that he got more votes in the South-South and Southeast than he got in the entire North, so he was more favoured in the South than in the North,” he said.

 

He added that Buhari lost in the South-South and Southeast in the 2015 and 2019 elections.
