Joshua Iginla of the Champion Royal Assembly has stated that only former Anambra State governor, Peter Obi, has the capacity to pose a strong challenge to President Bola Tinubu of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 elections.

According to him, Obi, who is considered one of the leading contenders for the African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential ticket, would only need a running mate from the northern region to mount a formidable contest against the APC.

Iginla made the remarks while addressing members of his congregation during a live Sunday service, where he also cautioned Obi against accepting a vice-presidential role under another candidate.

He said, “This is my political opinion. If we really want to give the opposition party a strong fight, put Peter Obi there, let him be deputized by any Northerner and then we will have a fight.

“Peter Obi, don’t, if you vice anybody, you have lost your political relevance. It’s better you go zero and leave them to do their things. The issue is so simple, you need patience if you want to go there”.

Meanwhile, Obi and former Kano State governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso, are reportedly in discussions over a possible political alliance, with supporters projecting a potential Obi/Kwankwaso ticket.
