DG of Big TENT: APC Treats Politics as a “Do or Die” Affair, and Without Peter Obi, We Lose Our Hope

In a statement released Thursday on ARISE NEWS’ official X handle, Ibrahim Abdulkareem, the Director General of Big TENT, criticized the All Progressives Congress (APC) for treating politics as a high-stakes “do or die” affair. Abdulkareem specifically pointed out Peter Obi’s role in fostering national unity, particularly through his connection with the youth from both the Northern and Southern regions of Nigeria.

Abdulkareem emphasized Obi’s unique ability to bridge regional divides, creating a sense of shared purpose and hope among young Nigerians. He warned that if Obi is sidelined or eliminated from the political scene due to his confrontational style, it could result in a loss of hope for many, especially young people who see Obi as a symbol of change.

Furthermore, Abdulkareem expressed concern that the APC’s intense and aggressive political tactics could undermine the country’s future, particularly by suppressing figures like Obi who offer an alternative vision. His statement highlighted the importance of figures like Obi in the political discourse and called for a more inclusive approach to politics, prioritizing the country’s future over partisan competition.

The statement also underscored the role of leadership in uniting the country, urging politicians to adopt a less adversarial stance for the betterment of Nigeria.

The APC takes politics as a do-or-die affair, and if Peter Obi is eliminated now because he is too confrontational, we will lose our hope.
