So the new reality on the ground now is structure over movement and this is where i feel the likes of Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso and Peter Obi are still missing it. The game has changed, you cannot in good conscience, jump from party to party, depend on sentiment, rely on last minute alignment and expect to win. That model is clearly unstable, unpredictable, dependent on luck and luck is not a strategy.
You can't set a structure around people that have a contrary interest with tou. It will just take a matter of time before you end up being betrayed.
Structure is good and that's no doubt but in our Nigerian political system as it is till date, You need to time things very well, yuu still need to have the right set of politicians in your team and still need to buy into the ethnic and religious bias that's very much a big deal in our today's society. If you set up a structure that doesn't touch on these key areas, you've even failed on arrival.
For the sake of peter Obi, he and his supporters believes he's the structure they are projecting and regardless the party he stands under, they want to see him win. We've seen how that played out in the last election where even opposition party still voted for him for presidency. Tinibu won't allow him remain in a single party setting all structure without trying to destroy the party and that's the reason why he has to smartly move out and start up something that if it's able to push him into office can become a structure that can be worked on.
