Former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose, has referred to Peter Obi, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, as the only active and genuine opposition voice currently left in Nigeria.
Fayose made this remark on Wednesday while responding to questions during an interview on Politics Today, a programme aired on Channels Television.
He, however, insisted that no individual or political group would be able to defeat President Bola Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 presidential election.
“Tell me, who will defeat the APC? The only opposition that I know of in Nigeria. Let me tell you now, the only opposition, I didn’t say the opposition can win Asiwaju, but the only opposition that still has traction is Obi, no other one.
“The only voice that has traction, that is still talking, that is everywhere despite not being in government, is Obi. I give it to him.
“But let me tell you, all others are just filling the gap. Atiku is filling the gap, and all the others too, because people don’t listen to them anymore,” Fayose stated.
