Nigeria: 2027 - Peter Obi Submits Single-Tenure Proposal to Opposition Coalition
- Earlier this month, Peter Obi submitted his single-term proposal to Nigeria's opposition coalition, as disclosed by Yunusa Tanko, seeking a four-year presidency ahead of 2027.
- Obi's proposal is rooted in calls for national unity and sacrifice, with Tanko emphasizing that four years are sufficient for Nigeria's transformative change.
- Obi stated, “We have presented it to the coalition,” asserting confidence in the four-year term despite it not being in the constitution.
- Following Obi's submission, the coalition adopted the African Democratic Congress as its platform, uniting key figures like Atiku Abubakar, Rotimi Amaechi, and Nasir el-Rufai to challenge President Bola Tinubu.
- Recalling Nigeria's past, former President Goodluck Jonathan's 2011 pledge of a single term led to party splits and his 2015 electoral defeat, illustrating the risks of broken promises.
