Amid growing speculation that Atiku and Obi may run on a joint ticket under the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Adams Oshiomhole, speaking on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, said both politicians share a record of electoral losses. He argued that whether they contest individually or together, the outcome would remain the same if they go up against President Bola Tinubu.
He said: “Did Atiku and Obi not run together before and contested against APC? You can throw any number you want to throw but the point is that when these two ran together, they were loudly defeated by APC. So why are you suggesting if the two, when they did before, what happened?
“You are the one who is recycling history. They have a history of being defeated together, and they have a history of being defeated apart. They ran together. They were defeated. They ran separately, they were defeated. If they come back together, very good. They will still be defeated,” Adams Oshiomhole said.
