Amaechi Refuses Peter Obi’s Appeal to Quit ADC 2027 Presidential Race

Former Rivers State governor and Transportation Minister Rotimi Amaechi has declined Peter Obi’s request to step aside in the 2027 presidential primary. Amaechi, Obi and Atiku Abubakar are all contesting for the African Democratic Congress ticket. At a weekend meeting in Abuja, Obi—joined by Achike Udenwa and Victor Umeh—urged Amaechi to support his bid. Amaechi insisted his ambition was serious and said he would not withdraw for any contender. An ADC chieftain confirmed he will back whoever wins the primary, and Obi’s camp had not yet responded.
