Atiku would’ve won 2027 presidency if he backed Obi in 2023 — Datti Baba-Ahmed

Former Labour Party vice-presidential candidate Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed has claimed that former Vice President Atiku Abubakar could have positioned himself to win the 2027 presidential election if he had supported Peter Obi in 2023. He argued that Atiku missed an opportunity to build long-term political goodwill by not backing Obi. Baba-Ahmed cited President Bola Tinubu's patience and strategic alliance-building as an example. He also criticized opposition coalition leaders for ignoring his warnings.
