A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Ayekooto Akindele, has mocked former Vice President Atiku Abubakar over the possible refusal of Peter Obi as his presidential running mate.
Akindele said Atiku is desperately looking for a presidential running mate from the Southern part of Nigeria.
In what seems like a mockery, Akindele said Atiku’s options are now limited to Timi Frank, Bode George, Debo Ologbondiyan, Rotimi Amaechi, and Tom Ikimi.
This comes as Obi said his involvement in the opposition coalition was to fight against bad governance, hunger, and poverty, not personal political ambition.
He made this remark while reacting to reports of an alleged agreement with Atiku to serve as his presidential running mate in 2027.
According to the report, Atiku had agreed to serve for only one term and was willing to formalize the agreement in writing.’
