Northern Democrats Blast Atiku, Obi: Nigerians Will Hold You Responsible If Tinubu Wins Again in 2027

 

On Wednesday, June 11, Leadership Newspaper reported that the League of Northern Democrats (LND) has issued a serious warning to opposition leaders such as Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi. The group said that if their inability to form a united front results in President Bola Tinubu winning re-election in 2027, the blame will rest with them.

Dr. Ladan Salihu, serving as LND’s National Publicity Secretary, accused the opposition of allowing personal ambition to override the collective effort to unseat the All Progressives Congress (APC). He explained,

“Nigerians will hold the opposition responsible if Tinubu emerges victorious again. The 2023 elections showed the PDP and LP together gained 63% of the vote, so failure to come together now would betray the public’s confidence.”

Salihu pointed out that the public is paying close attention and will either applaud the opposition’s success or criticize their disunity. “The hardship Nigerians are enduring is intense, and citizens expect their leaders to prioritize the national interest. If personal goals get in the way, history will not be kind to them,” he warned.

He also called for urgent steps, saying, “Nigerians are tired of excuses—they demand results. Should the opposition fall short, Tinubu’s continued presidency will be their responsibility.”
