2027: I’m Open To Serving A Single Term And Handing Over Power To The North, Says Peter Obi

Peter Obi, former Labour Party presidential candidate, has stated that he is open to honoring any coalition agreement that may require him to serve only one term and hand over power to the North in 2031.

Speaking during an X (formerly Twitter) Space session titled #PeterObiOnParallelFacts, Obi emphasized that his political ambition is not driven by desperation for power but by a commitment to character and integrity.

The session drew over 10,000 live listeners and nearly 3,000 audience comments.

“If the agreement is one term, I will leave on May 28, 2031 — not even May 29.

“I am not desperate to be president.

“I am desperate to see Nigeria work,” Obi said, in response to a question from a user named Balactic.

Obi also emphasized that adhering to zoning arrangements and honoring any coalition agreements demonstrates political maturity.
