Former presidential candidate Peter Obi has admitted that he is uncertain about clinching the presidential ticket of the African Democratic Congress ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Speaking in a video circulating on social media, Obi told his supporters that while he remains committed to the political movement, he cannot guarantee securing the party’s ticket.
“I cannot be certain that I will get the ticket,” he said, stressing that his focus goes beyond personal ambition. According to him, the struggle is about a broader national cause rather than individual political gain.
The former Anambra State governor also reflected on the current political climate, questioning how things have evolved and warning against abandoning ongoing reform efforts.
Despite reported threats and uncertainties within the opposition space, Obi reaffirmed his resolve to continue pushing for change. He commended his supporters for their loyalty, acknowledging the difficulties of operating outside the ruling establishment.
Obi, however, raised concerns about trust and stability within political alliances, noting that shifting loyalties remain a major challenge.
“We cannot always be sure that those we are working with today will remain committed tomorrow,” he said, highlighting the fragile nature of coalition politics in Nigeria.
