2027: ‘Peter Obi Is Just Struggling In Error, His Defeat Is A Fixed Deposit’ – Edo Commissioner

The Edo State Commissioner for Information and Communication, Paul Ohonbamu, has downplayed the political dominance of Labour Party (LP) 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, in the South East.

Naijaonpoint reports that Ohonbamu, during an interview on Channels Television’s Morning Brief on Monday, stated that Peter Obi poses no threat to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Edo State and will be defeated in the 2027 election.

While questioning his preparedness for leadership, the commissioner argued that the former Governor of Anambra State has no concrete plan for governance.

According to Ohonbamu, Peter Obi’s political agenda remains vague and lacks a clear vision for the country.

He reiterated that Peter Obi does not have influence in the South East, pointing out that the Labour Party controls only one state government in the region (Abia), while the APC holds Imo and Ebonyi.

He said, “Peter Obi is the least of our worries. APC can’t be threatened because of Peter Obi. Ask him what he will even do when he becomes president, and he’ll simply say, ‘Let me get there first. There is no clear-cut blueprint of what he wants to do.

“Enugu is governed by the PDP and Anambra by APGA. So where is his dominance? Peter Obi is the least of our worries. He’s just struggling in error. I can assure you, his defeat is a fixed deposit.”
