In Nigerian elections, individual candidate support can transcend traditional political party affiliations, as demonstrated by the 2023 election where Peter Obi of the Labour Party secured over 6 million votes despite party elites claiming he lacked organizational structure, and by the 2027 election dynamics where APC rallies in Ebonyi State showed supporters chanting 'Obi Kerenke,' indicating that voter loyalty may be based on candidate popularity rather than party alignment.

David Umayi shocks, as Ebonyi APC Rally Crowd Chants Peter Obi's 'Obi Kerenke' Slogan
Added:All right, guys. So, I have a quick update to share with you. Good morning, good afternoon, good evening to you all depending on your location at this time of the day. I don't want to waste much of your time on this particular update.
All right.
2027 election, just like I keep telling you guys, will be one of the most interesting election in the history of Nigeria. Yes.
What we saw in 2023 was just the beginning.
When Nigerians realized that political party affiliation is not the solution, is not an option for Nigerians. Yes.
Even when all the, you know, political party elite were saying that Labor Party, Peter Obi do not have structure.
A man who do not have structure or who did not have structure was able to pull about 6 million votes plus.
And in fact, there are people up to today that still believe that are still convinced you understand that Labor Party and Peter Obi won 2023 election. Of course, yes.
As I am talking to you now.
Now, this came the video I'm about to share with you. This came just after the, uh, Minister of, uh, Works, David Umahi, declared that the South East have adopted Tinubu as their sole candidate.
I mean, how will the entire South East adopt somebody as their sole candidate?
I really don't understand.
Is it that you supervise or you will supervise the manner or the way those people will vote in 2027?
Is it that you checkmate who they are voting for? Because as I am talking to you, 2027 will be one of the most interesting election in the history of Nigeria. Now, this is APC rally in Ebonyi State. Guess what?
Even during the rally, people were still chanting Obi get again. I don't know the meaning of that song. Please, if you are an Igbo man, what is the meaning of Obi get again?
Okay, I don't know how to sing it, you understand? They were still chanting it.
APC rally. Let me share the video for you guys. Then I'll come back for the rest of my own opinion.
>> [screaming] >> All right, um it's so funny, though, you understand? This is one of the funniest rally um I've seen so far. Of course, we know we have enough time for more rallies ahead of 2027. But, this is APC rally in Ebonyi State.
These people were busy singing something different.
What does that entails you?
Their mind, their spirit. This is my own personal opinion. Just like I said, you all know what we do here. All right, this is my opinion based on the video I just shared with you guys.
If you look very well, the aspect you understand is somewhere.
I'm telling you the truth.
But in a rally like this, they have what I should call support groups.
You understand? That is what it usually made or what usually happens. They have different support group in this rally venue.
Where at the end of the day, hey, come.
Okay, let's just go to that rally venue at the end of the day, you know, pure water what something will come out.
That's what I am thinking.
Because these people are not just carried away.
They were They as in They intentionally played that generation about Obi Cubana. They were They intentionally played it.
Yes, if you check the background, if you hear the the person that player playing it, he had to, you know, switch to that generation knowing the interpretation of that generation and people had to respond to that generation.
This is APC rally.
For you to know that 2027 election will be one of the most interesting election in the history of Nigeria. I quickly wanted to share this with you guys. If you have anything to contribute, put it on the comment section. And we'll see you guys in another update.
