Chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Peter Obi, has again declared that he won the 2023 presidential election, maintaining that the officially announced results did not reflect what he believes was the true outcome.

Fresh remarks on election outcome

Speaking during an appearance on the Naija Unfiltered podcast, the former Anambra State governor said he remains convinced that his campaign secured victory, despite the final figures released by electoral authorities.

According to him, the system produced a different result from what he insists actually happened during the election.

“I can show you today, as far as I’m concerned, I have run election for the office of the President of Nigeria and won. But the system decided otherwise and they know it,” Obi said.

Context of the 2023 race

Obi contested the 2023 presidential election under the Labour Party and polled about six million votes nationwide, emerging as one of the leading candidates in the race.

His latest comments add to ongoing debates around the credibility of the election and the broader conversation on electoral reforms in Nigeria.

Public reaction builds

The statement has since stirred reactions online, with supporters and critics weighing in on his claims and the state of Nigeria’s electoral process.

Obi has consistently maintained his stance on the election outcome, reinforcing calls from his camp for greater transparency and accountability in future polls.
