Daily Post Nigeria PDP governors prefer Tinubu to Atiku – Fayose Home News Politics Metro Entertainment Sport Politics PDP governors prefer Tinubu to Atiku – Fayose Published on April 18, 2025 By Seun Opejobi Former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose stated that governors on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, prefer President Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Alliance, APC, to their own party’s former presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar. Fayose made the remark while featuring on Channels TV’s Politics Today, where he described the coalition proposed by Atiku as a “dead horse.” He noted that the stance of the PDP Governors’ Forum in Ibadan, Oyo State, sent a clear message that they are not aligned with Atiku.
According to Fayose: “The coalition is a dead horse ab initio. Tell me one positive person that has given his words in support of this coalition.” He continued: “The governors’ stance in Ibadan is to tell Atiku that we are not with you, we are going nowhere, we have our own identity.
“That coalition is just the imagination of people trying to bring it to fruition. It’s a waste of time. The governors are fighting for their own survival, and they don’t need an Atiku to fight for their survival.
“In actual fact, most of them prefer a Tinubu for their survival than an Atiku. Don’t let us deceive and fool ourselves; there is nothing called coalition. Obi can’t go to Atiku; Atiku can’t go to Obi.
“You see the rate at which people are decamping from PDP. How many people are defecting from APC? Something is fundamentally wrong in PDP that needs to be fixed.” Related Topics: Atiku Fayose PDP Tinubu Don't Miss 3 NDLEA officers sustain gunshot injuries during raid in Abuja You may like If Tinubu can’t transform Nigeria, no politician can – Seyilaw Easter: My resolve to restore peace, security in Nigeria unshakable –Tinubu Rivers: Lawyers ask Tinubu to disclose authorization for appointment of LG administrators Wike denies plans to install weak PDP National Chairman to deliver party to Tinubu Easter: Nigerians are not assured of their lives – IPAC charges Tinubu govt Peter Obi had no chance of winning election — Wike on backing Tinubu Advertise About Us Contact Us Privacy-Policy Terms Copyright © Daily Post Media Ltd.
