Political War Declared: All Progressives Congress Vows To Crush Peter Obi’s Growing Influence

Speaking during an interview on Channels Television, Nwoye stated that the APC is prepared to engage politically and strategically to secure victory.

He acknowledged the strong impact of the Obidient Movement during the last election and admitted that the party cannot afford to underestimate Obi’s political strength.

According to him, Obi recorded significant successes in the South-East during the previous elections, including victories across several legislative seats. He also noted that Obi’s influence extended beyond the region, citing wins in states such as Delta, Edo, and Lagos.

Nwoye warned that with Obi actively involved in politics and backed by both the Obidient Movement and the African Democratic Congress (ADC), every vote will be crucial, adding that the APC is prepared to compete vigorously.

He also indicated that the ruling party anticipates its toughest competition will come from southern Nigeria in the 2027 elections, where multiple strong contenders are expected to emerge.

Nwoye mentioned that aside from Obi, other political figures such as Rotimi Amaechi are also positioning themselves for the presidential race, further intensifying the political landscape.

Peter Obi, who contested the 2023 presidential election under the Labour Party, is currently aligned with the ADC and is reportedly seeking its presidential ticket for the 2027 elections.
