The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, in the last election, Peter Obi, has revealed why he refused to step down for his Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, counterpart, Atiku Abubakar.

Recall that Obi was the running mate to Atiku in the 2019 presidential election when both men ran on the platform of the PDP.

But due to some internal crisis in the PDP, Obi, who was expected to run with Atiku again in 2023, left the party and ed the LP. He contested the presidential poll on the platform of the LP, winning in 12 states of the federation, including the Federal Capital Territory, FCT.

Obi addressed the press on Monday, about two weeks after the judgement of the Supreme Court that upheld the victory of President Bola Tinubu in the 2023 general election.

Obi said he refused to step down or work with Atiku because he came out to campaign for a new Nigeria, unlike other presidential candidates.

He said, We don’t regret anything we did. We came out on a campaign for new Nigeria which no other person did."

Look at this opportunist.

If this opportunist had not left PDP, he would have been the vice president today.

The Igbos really hyped him which got into his head and today he is a loser.

A billionaire is campaigning for a new Nigèria, a country where he repeatedly said people are poor and suffering, that he has come to rescue people, but before he rescues the people, the people which he described as poor and suffering should donate money for him.
Ponzi scheme.
"New Nigeria" on the lips.
If we had Been foolish enough, he will now be saying "I am the first...", "I am the only...", "I am..."

Obi is insisting that he doesn't need Atiku to defeat the structures of criminality which PDAPC represents.

Obi has no mate if credible election is conducted today

1. He was the most competent out of the trio.

2. It was the turn of the South. After the North did 8years, for justice and fairness. So it was a 2 in one package


Come 2027,I'll do it again. Stand in the Sun, queue and vote for him again

It's not pride, it's avoiding a ponzi scheme so u don't end up in regret just like Anambra ended up in regret.

Yet he couldn't win elections in Anambra?
LOL.
He was depending on the court to sneak him into power.
Wherever Obi won was free and fair, wherever he lost even when u expected him to lose there was rigged, next election, u will see how his votes will diminish.

Very greedy and focus less politician

Because of you nigera has a bulaba balu

Nigerians are paying the price for your greediness

Politicians that bears Obi as their names should withdraw from politics.

There is no difference between Obi and Bubu.
