Are y’all ready for an HONEST deep dive into the @atiku interview?
It’ll be long o! @abati1990 and @TundunAbiola kept peppering him with questions.
Let’s go!

First of all, it wasn’t live
It appears to have been recorded at the Candidate’s residence.
I prefer live interviews bcos you get to see the candidate think on their seats; but I’m happy with this bcos there were no ‘content-edits’ so what you see is what was said.

First question from Abati is on the messy VP selection process. Atiku, exuding confidence & composure, takes us through the process & calls on his right to select his VP.
He admits s there is an internal crisis but states that talks are ongoing with Wike & his men to resolve it.

Commentary:
Atiku is projecting strength and power, as he must; but serious back room approaches must be made to bring Wike back into the fold. Wike has the sympathies and loyalties of a handful of governors, and their support going into the elections is critical.
Bury the egos.

Labour won’t like this 2nd question. Asked about how Obi’s departure would affect his prospects, Candidate Atiku was unperturbed.
“Look at last election in Osun…this is a party without a governor, or members of national or state assemblies…”

Commentary:
Atiku is right. PDP will fare much better than Labour; however to defeat APC we need a United Opposition going into the elections.
Obi is building an alternative structure that will give him enough votes to harm PDP’s chances, even if he cannot win.

Tundun asks why Nigeria is so divided and how did we get here.
Atiku gives a simple answer: APC.
He also explains how 🦇’s insistence on a Muslim-Muslim ticket as far back as 2007 marked the start of their political divergence.

Commentary:
Nothing more to add, really. Like the man said, you cannot push for a mono-religious or mono-ethnic presidential ticket in a country as multi-religious and multi-ethnic as Nigeria is today.
To do so, in the blind pursuit of power, is to court chaos.
