Peter Obi and Atiku Abubakar.
Former Labour Party vice-presidential candidate, Datti Baba-Ahmed, has explained his recent statement that Peter Obi and Atiku Abubakar lack the capacity to fix Nigeria if elected president in 2027.
Baba-Ahmed said his comments were made in the interest of fairness, arguing that he did not want to give any of President Bola Tinubu’s major challengers an undue advantage by asking the president to step down.
He made the clarification while speaking on the Naija Unfiltered Podcast, following criticism over his recent interview with Seun Okinbaloye.
In the earlier interview, Baba-Ahmed had said Tinubu should step aside and that none of those seeking to replace him in 2027 had the capacity to improve Nigeria.
