@O_basslet He won't. His political career is over.
His candidates can't win any state election.
If anyone wins NASS or Reps election cause of his wave (which I doubt still exists) they will defect to other parties.
So what exactly is Obi relevance after 2027?

@dondekojo @emmaikumeh This is like saying why would a dog enter a library only to bark?
It's in its nature. The question should be why would a library allow a dog to come in in the first place.

The next cloud you look up at weighs around 1.1 million pounds. Heavier than a fully loaded Boeing 747. The water inside it weighs about as much as 100 elephants. And it just floats over your head all day. Two pieces of physics keep it up there.
First, the cloud is lighter than the air around it. Air full of water is lighter than dry air. Water molecules weigh less than the nitrogen and oxygen molecules they push aside. So the cloud sits on top of the heavier dry air below. Same way a wooden plank sits on top of water.
The US Geological Survey calculates the weight using two numbers. A typical puffy cloud is shaped roughly like a cube about a kilometer wide on every side. Inside it, each smaller box of air one meter on a side holds roughly half a gram of water. Multiply it out and you get 1.1 million pounds.
Second, the water in a cloud is broken into droplets so small they hardly fall at all. Each one is about a hundredth of a millimeter wide. Way thinner than a strand of your hair. A droplet that tiny falls about one or two feet per minute through still air. So slow you would barely see it move. The warm air rising up through the cloud pushes back faster than gravity can pull the droplets down. The droplets are falling the whole time. The rising air just wins.
Most of what you see when you look at a cloud is air. More than 99.99% of it is air by volume. The white, solid look comes from light bouncing off all those tiny droplets. Walk through one and you would feel cold dampness on your face and not much else.
A thunderstorm cloud is in another category entirely. Researchers at the University of Reading calculated that a single one holds around 2 million tons of water. They can stretch ten kilometers up into the sky, with droplets packed much more densely than in a fair-weather cloud. Those clouds only stay up because the storm keeps pulling warm air upward to feed itself. The moment that air stops rising, you get rain.

the average cloud weighs 1 million pounds. and yet they float

Fellow Nigerians, good morning.
I woke up this morning after my church service with a deeply reflective heart, and despite every constraint, I felt compelled to share these thoughts with you.
Many people do not truly understand the silent pains some of us carry daily—the private struggles, emotional burdens, and quiet battles we face while trying to survive and serve sincerely in difficult circumstances.
We now live in an environment that has become increasingly toxic, where the very system that should protect and create opportunities for decent living often works against the people—a society where intimidation, insecurity, endless scrutiny, and discouragement have become normal.
More painful is when some of those you associate with, believing you would find understanding and solidarity among them, become part of the pressure you face. Some who publicly identify with you privately distance themselves or join in unfair criticism.
We live in a society where humility is mistaken for weakness, respect is seen as a lack of courage, and compassion is treated as foolishness—a system where treating people equally is questioned simply because you refuse to worship status, tribe, class, or power.
Personally, I have never looked down on anyone except to uplift them. I have never used privilege, position, or resources to oppress others, intimidate the weak, or make people feel small. To me, leadership has always been about service, sacrifice, and helping others rise.
Let me state clearly: my decision to leave the ADC is not because our highly respected Chairman, Senator David Mark, treated me badly, nor because my leader and elder brother, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, or any other respected leaders did anything personally wrong to me. I will continue to respect them.
However, the same Nigerian state and its agents that created unnecessary crises and hostility within the Labour Party that forced me to leave now appear to be finding their way into the ADC, with endless court cases, internal battles, suspicion, and division, instead of focusing on deeper national problems and playing politics built more on control and exclusion than on service and nation-building.
Even within spaces where one labours sincerely, one is sometimes treated like an outsider in one’s own home. You and your team become easy targets for every failure, frustration, or misunderstanding, as though honest contribution has become a favour being tolerated rather than appreciated.
And when you choose to leave so that those you are leaving can have peace, and you step out into the cold, you are still maligned and your character is questioned. Despite all your efforts to continue working for a better Nigeria and engaging people with sincerity and goodwill, those who do not wish you well continue to attack your character and question your intentions.
There are moments I ask God in prayer: Why is doing the right thing often misconstrued as wrongdoing in our country? Why is integrity not valued? Why is the prudent management of resources, especially when invested in critical areas like education and healthcare, wrongly labelled as stinginess? Why are humility and obedience to the rule of law often taken to be weakness rather than discipline?
Let me assure all that I am not desperate to be President, Vice President, or Senate President. I am desperate to see a society that can console a mother whose child has been kidnapped or killed while going to school or work. I am desperate to see a Nigeria where people will not live in IDP camps but in their homes. I am desperate for a country where Nigerian citizens do not go to bed hungry, not knowing where their next meal will come from.
Yet, despite everything, I remain resolute. I firmly believe that Nigeria can still become a country with competent leadership based on justice, compassion, and equal opportunity for all.
A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Lol.
I told you guys this thing on Friday before the news began filtering out.
I want to congratulate you @PeterObi for helping us re-elect President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to a second term.
You can now rest easy knowing you've played your role.
See you in 2039, or not. 🤣

I told everyone in his camp when they were flying all over the world meeting with him, he did it before and will do it again
ALI@Saifthesage
You know I blame AA. This is why I can’t and won’t vote for him. The lack of foresight, the refusal to see people for who they are, and hubris to think someone who betrayed you won’t do it again is unacceptable. I refuse to reward this behavior.

PROCEDURE FOR NOMINATION OF CANDIDATES BY POLITICAL PARTIES
For the avoidance of doubt, the Electoral Act 2026 in Section 84(2) recognizes only two procedures for the nomination of candidates by a Political Party:
1. Direct Primaries: where members of the party who appears in the official register of members directly votes who becomes the candidate
2. Consensus: where the leadership of the Party meets and decides on a candidate subject to the ratification of other aspirants for that position.
In fact, section 87(1) ensures that where there’s a consensus, the Party must secure the written consent of all cleared aspirants for the position indicating their voluntary withdrawal from the race. They must also endorse the consensus candidate.
Where the Party unable to secure the written consent of all cleared aspirants for the purpose of a consensus candidate, it must revert to the Direct primaries system to decide on a Candidate.
So, where a candidate has reservations on the choice of consensus, all they have to do is to reject the consensus candidate and insist that a direct primary be held. A Political Party cannot validly nominate a candidate via consensus unless all the aspirants agree to it.
P. S. The delegate system has since been abolished my the new Electoral Act. The delegate system is the system where selected members of a Party vote at the party convention to determine the Candidate of the Party. This particular system was the “dollarized” system
