Atiku-Obi alliance could threaten 2027 victory – APC chieftain

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Dominic Alancha, has raised concerns that a potential alliance between former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and former Anambra State Governor Peter Obi could significantly weaken the ruling party’s chances in the 2027 general elections.

Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Wednesday, Alancha said that if Atiku and Obi agree on a joint presidential ticket, it could erode the APC’s support base.

“In 2027, the dynamics may change. If Peter Obi and Atiku align and present a united front, they could easily pull 13 to 14 million votes. That would seriously impact our chances,” he warned.
