2027: Peter Obi now only true opposition voice in Nigeria – Fayose

Former Ekiti Governor, Ayo Fayose, has described the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, as the only remaining opposition voice in Nigeria.

Fayose made the assertion during an interview on Channels TV’s Politics Today, which was monitored by TRIBUNE ONLINE on Wednesday.

The former governor, however, maintained that no one would be able to defeat President Bola Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 presidential election.

“Tell me, who will defeat the APC? The only opposition that I know in Nigeria — let me tell you now — the only opposition, I didn’t say the opposition can win Asiwaju, but the only opposition that still has traction is Obi, no other one,” Fayose said.

The former governor added that the former Anambra State governor remains the only political figure still resonating with Nigerians despite not being in government.

“The only voice that has traction, that is still talking, that is everywhere despite not being in government, is Obi. I give it to him.

“But let me tell you, all others are just filling the gap. Atiku is filling the gap, and all the others too, because people don’t listen to them anymore,” Fayose stated.
