2027: Your recent political moves lack direction β APC mocks Peter Obi


The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has taken a swipe at Peter Obi, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), describing his recent political activities as lacking direction, principle and consistency.
In a statement issued on Thursday, August 28, APCβs Publicity Secretary, Seye Oladejo, said Obiβs political influence is fading, while the Labour Partyβthe platform he contested on in 2023βhas become fractured and visionless.
βIn 2023, Mr. Obi emerged as a digital-era phenomenon, buoyed by youthful frustration and social media fervour. He campaigned on the promise of a new political orderβone that would challenge the status quo and deliver a βNew Nigeria.β Today, however, we must ask: Whither Peter Obi? Is he now politically stranded or ideologically orphaned?β the statement read in part.
Oladejo argued that Obiβs recent alliance with the African Democratic Congress (ADC), described as a βstill-born coalition,β only portrays him as a politician wandering aimlessly, driven more by ambition than ideology.
βIndeed, Mr. Obi may now be reaping the bitter fruits of political prostitution,β the statement continued. βHaving, at different times, been in bed with the PDP, seduced the Labour Party, and now romanced the hollow structure of the ADC, he has left behind a trail of alliances formed not on principle but on convenience.β
The APC further dismissed the once-vibrant βObidientβ movement, claiming it has fizzled out without structure or lasting impact.
In contrast, the party praised its own record, insisting that under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the APC is delivering pragmatic governance focused on economic revitalization, policy reforms and national unity.
βAs we look to 2027, the question is no longer whether Peter Obi will contest,β the statement concluded. βThe real question is: does he have a home to contest from? Or has he finally become what many fearedβa political drifter, orphaned by the very movement he failed to consolidate?β
