The political economist admitted to engaged the three 2023 presidential candidates namely; Atiku Abubakar of People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Peter Obi of Labour Party (LP) and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) on the need to form a new alliance ahead of 2027.
“Yes, I’ve had conversations with Atiku Abubakar, I’ve had conversations with Engineer Rabiu Kwankwaso, I have had conversations with Peter Gregory Obi and the people like Ralph Okey Nwosu of ADC are some of those that would probably constitute some of the base.
“And I’ve said to them, it’s not about you. It’s about Nigeria, it’s about the ordinary person in this state. It’s about really truly moving from this business of sharing trickles from oil sales to how we can become one of the most productive economies because our (natural) endowments allow that but our politics has not allowed Nigerian people to produce,” Utomi said.
