Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, has declared that he has no personal grudges against the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, regarding his recent victory in the 2023 presidential election.
In an interview on Arise TV on Monday, Obi clarified that he is only challenging the process by which the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared Tinubu as the winner of the election.
Obi emphasized the need for INEC to take responsibility for building a viable global image for Nigeria. He appealed to the electoral body to uphold its responsibility to ensure that Nigeria develops strong democratic institutions that will educate people on the importance of their job and the role of government in society.
“We are committed to a new Nigeria. We must do everything right,” he said.
Obi’s statements come amidst widespread controversy and allegations of electoral malpractice in the 2023 presidential election.
Many opposition parties, including the Labour Party, have raised concerns about the legitimacy of the election results and are calling for a thorough investigation into the voting process.
