Opposition political parties have criticized former Vice President Atiku Abubakar for his assertion that a southern candidate cannot win against President Bola Tinubu in the upcoming 2027 general election. Atiku's comments, which caution opposition parties against zoning their presidential tickets to the South, have drawn backlash from groups such as Kwankwasiyya and Obidient. These parties argue that his stance reflects a sense of desperation and undermines the democratic process. The discourse highlights ongoing tensions within Nigeria's political landscape as parties prepare for the next election cycle.
