2027 General Election: I Never Rejected To Become Atiku’s Running Mate – Peter Obi
Former Anambra State Governor and Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) Presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has said he never rejected an offer to become the running mate to the former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
Asked whether he had ruled out becoming Atiku’s running mate, Obi, who spoke on Arise Television on Thursday, said no such offer had been presented to him.
“Now, how do you say? You mean now? You mean this election, or are they offering it through you?
“No. I wasn’t even in a position where that was being offered, and I refused.”
Obi’s comment comes amid ongoing political realignments ahead of the 2027 general elections, with opposition figures exploring possible alliances and coalition arrangements.
