<blockquote><b>Nigerian political commentator and social media expert, Japheth Joshua Omojuwa, has given reasons why he believes strongly that Peter Obi will never be President.</b><br><br>Omojuwa, during an interview on Mic On Podcast, maintained his confident declaration that Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 general election, will never become Nigerias president.<br><br>Asked if his declaration is not an overtly absolute verdict in a democratic setting known for its surprises, especially when the same system once brought an opposition candidate, late former President Muhammadu Buhari, to power after three failed attempts, Omojuwa explained that the former Anambra State governor is still part of the old system.<br><br><b>The question intentionally pretends that I didnt give the reason why he [Obi] wouldnt be president, he said.<br><br>Im going to give [reason]. I said that he wouldnt become president on account of certain things. <br><br>And the funny thing is, even people that were allies with him have been on your podcast, and theyve also more or less said the same thing in different ways.</b><br><br><b>Theres a philosopher that says that you cannot continue to do the same thing and expect a different result.<br><br>And Peter Obi, he knows that too. You know why he has compromised his position. So Peter Obi was of the system, a beneficiary of the system of the old order.<br><br>He was governor of Anambra State under APGA. By the time he left, he stopped being governor, he desperately wanted to become a minister. He tried to become aviation minister. It didnt work out.</b><br><br><b>Eventually, Jonathan just made him chairman of the SEC. Anyway, the man [Jonathan] was on his way out. I think this was April 2015, and he still took it, right' It took Buhari to fire him as Chairman of SEC.<br><br>Eventually, he ran as Atikus vice presidential candidate, a full-blooded PDP member, becoming a presidential candidate under, you know, running under a PDP ticket.<br><br>From there, he then becomes born again. Under this new political system, the Labour Party, he became completely born again, a different, fresh Nigerian that had never been part of the old order.</b><br><br><b>He enjoyed some miraculous change and perception, and unfortunately for him, that did not carry into the presidency.<br><br>And then he comes back and says, what changed' What do I need to change' What has he been doing' Hes been going to be with, in bed with the same people that he said were the structure of criminality</b>. <br><br><b>Hes shaking hands with them, hes sitting with them, hes signing his names with them.<br><br>Now, I use the word compromise, but its not compromise. Hes gone back exactly where he actually has always been.</b></blockquote><br><br><a rel=ugc href="https://dailypost.ng/2025/07/27/2027-it-took-buhari-to-sack-him-as-sec-chairman-omojuwa-on-why-obi-will-never-be-president/">https://dailypost.ng/2025/07/27/2027-it-took-buhari-to-sack-him-as-sec-chairman-omojuwa-on-why-obi-will-never-be-president/</a>
