Atiku, Obi birds of a feather and their vaulting ambitions

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar criticized Peter Obi in a recent interview, labeling him an ethnic aspirant with a narrow political base. Despite his attempts to form a coalition, his disparaging comments may undermine his presidential ambitions. The entry of Obi and Kwankwaso into the Nigeria Democratic Congress after their exit from the African Democratic Congress could strengthen their position ahead of the 2027 elections.
