However, Tinubu is not the only presidential candidate that will use the Chatham House platform to explain his action plan to the Nigerian electorates ahead of the 2023 elections, 3 others have been invited.
Other presidential candidates invited to speak at Chatham House are listed below.
Atiku Abubakar
According to Alex Vines, the chairman of the conversation between Tinubu and Chatham House, the PDP presidential candidate has also been invited to speak at the institute.
Recall that Atiku was at the institute in 2011, where he spoke about Nigeria’s economy. Thus, he is not new to the terrain, just like Tinubu.
Rabiu Kwankwaso
The presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) was also reported to have been invited to speak at the institute before next year's poll.
Kwankwaso is a former governor of Kano state and former minister of defence. He was part of the PDP faction that joined the APC at his early stage but left the ruling party after falling out with his successor, Abdullahi Ganduje, the current governor of Kano state.
He then formed the NNPP in 2022 and became the new party’s presidential candidate.
Peter Obi
The Labour Party presidential candidate had been criticised for running for president without a political structure.
However, the former governor of Anambra has been getting media attention, with many youths supporting him on social media.
