[Vanguard] A former Labour Party vice-presidential candidate, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, has claimed that former Vice President Atiku Abubakar could have positioned himself to win the 2027 presidential election if he had supported Peter Obi's presidential bid in 2023 instead of contesting against him.

The former senator pointed to Tinubu's political trajectory as an example of patience and strategic alliance-building. He noted that the president had, at different times, provided political platforms for other aspirants while waiting for his own opportunity to seek the presidency.
