I have never tweeted directly at Seriake Dickson or his NDC position because I am objective enough to know what is at play.
NDC is Dickson's baby. It is in his interest to sustain structural control.
A group (read Obidients) cannot collide forces months before an election, then muscle key outposts within his party - when they have no loyalty to him. I get it.
An argument may surface on how Kwankwaso's political base got good deals out of the merger - that can be charged to two obvious possibility.
- Kwankwaso was a better negotiator & with a more structural political base,
- Kwankwaso's political half-life within NDC appears to be more long-term because of 2031 ambitions.
Even though NDC is not doing Obi a favor and it is actually the other way round - it is not in NDC's position to protect Obi's interest outside of 2027 Presidential ticket.
It is in Obi's interest to affirm the structural identity of Obidients outside NDC or any political party masquerading as foster homes and this has nothing to do with 2027 elections, that's a closed case - it has everything to do with the political terrain post 2027.
The best time to have done this was in 2022 - the next best time is now.
We need to lay down our own structural foundations - one we cannot be muscled out of.
IT NEEDS TO HAPPEN NOW.
