Presidential Election: I’ll Win In Court – Peter Obi

Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi, has expressed confidence that he will be declared winner of the February 25, 2023 presidential election.

According to Obi, he has confidence in Nigeria’s judiciary despite the controversy around their rulings on some matters.

Obi speaking as a guest at the Channels Television’s Sunrise Programme on Thursday, said that his confidence is drawn from the fact that the justices are Nigerians and are aware of how bad the situation has been in the country and only truth and justice will save this country.

“They, the justices desire a better Nigeria for themselves and their children and that can only come through doing the right thing and telling the people the truth of any situation.

“For me, I have no cause to doubt the courts, it’s we the politicians that are bent on corrupting every aspect of our national life,” Obi stated.

On what his reaction will be if the nation decides to go on with the situation, Obi said he would be shocked if the country goes on with the rascality of criminality.

The former Anambra state governor said it’s disheartening that the giant of Africa cannot deliver a simple election when small nations like Ghana can deliver with a small error margin and big nations like India also deliver with less than a five per cent error margin.

Obi reiterated his earlier position that what the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), declared is false, pointing out that he’s challenging the process and the declaration.

“My trust in INEC has evaporated with what they did on February 25, setting out a rule for the election and abandoning it in the middle of the game. He said that the majority of Nigerians have declared a vote of no confidence in INEC because everybody saw that they promised so much and could not deliver even the minimum.
