Peter Obi Dismisses Jonathan as Threat in 2027 Presidential Race

After a two-hour screening at the Nigeria Democratic Congress national secretariat, Peter Obi brushed aside talk that former President Goodluck Jonathan could undermine his 2027 bid. Obi said he remains focused on addressing insecurity, rebuilding the economy, fighting corruption and restoring national unity rather than worrying about potential opponents. He criticised a political culture that prioritises elections over governance and lamented that millions of Nigerians still struggle for daily survival. He described the screening process as “democracy in action,” emphasising that no consensus candidate has been decided yet.
