Peter Obi, the presidential candidate for the Labour Party in 2023, claimed on Saturday that fraud and other major irregularities marred the previous general election.
Despite spending a lot of money on the exercise, Obi claimed there were numerous technical issues with the election.
In a series of X posts, Obi wrote: “Nigeria’s 2023 election, with less than 30% of Voter turnout, over 60% of the polling stations starting late, and no diaspora voting, the elections were plagued by allegations of fraud and widespread irregularities, all forms of glitches, despite an enormous expenditure to the tune of about a billion dollars (direct allocation of =N=313 Billion and donor agencies support).

“With about 60% voter turnout, over 90% of polling open on time, allowing diaspora voting, the results and updates were real-time without any form of technical glitches during the election.”
According to the former governor of Anambra State, the controversy surrounding Nigeria’s election process serves as a sobering reminder of the nation’s continuous difficulties with democratic administration.
After President Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and his opponent from the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, Obi finished third.
