Instead of joining hands with others to rescue Nigeria, he seems to be focused only on himself. This is not the time for selfish politics,\u201d the group said.<\/p>\n<p>According to the group, Obi is \u201crepeating what he did in 2023, when his actions helped divide the opposition and made it easy for APC to win\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>According to them, the 2027 election is very important for Igbo people, and \u201cthey must not make any mistakes this time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe current president is from the South. This is the best time for Ndigbo to push for the presidency. But we need unity. If Obi leaves the coalition, it will be harder for an Igbo person to become president in 2027 or even in 2031\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>They also questioned whether Obi might secretly be working to help APC and President Tinubu, saying his silence and lack of involvement in the coalition are suspicious.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cObi is not fully part of the plans, and it\u2019s starting to look like he is playing another game.
