APC: Peter Obi’s Complaints on Edo Election Results Are Irrelevant
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has labelled Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate from 2023, as a persistent complainer who refuses to accept electoral outcomes that do not favour him or his party.
Felix Morka, the National Publicity Secretary of the APC, made these remarks during an appearance on Arise TV.
He criticized Obi’s ongoing disputes regarding the recent governorship election in Edo State, asserting that the former presidential candidate has been in denial since the 2023 elections.
Morka emphasized that Obi’s views on the Edo election hold no significance.
“Peter Obi is a serial complainer who will not accept the results of any election that does not align with his interests or those of his candidates,” Morka stated.
“Since the 2023 election, he has consistently denied the outcome, and now he has turned his attention to undermining the legitimacy of the Edo State election.”
Morka encouraged those who are dissatisfied with the election results, such as the Labour Party’s gubernatorial candidate, Olumide Akpata, and the Peoples Democratic Party’s Asue Ighodalo, to pursue legal action if they believe there are grounds for challenge.
He criticized the opposition for spreading what he described as unfounded allegations without providing substantial evidence.
According to the election results, Akpata received 22,763 votes, while Monday Okpebholo of the APC won decisively with 291,667 votes, followed by Ighodalo, who garnered 247,274 votes.
Morka concluded that any claims made in the court of public opinion must be substantiated by tangible evidence rather than mere headlines.
Afrobeat singer Seun Kuti calls out politician Peter Obi over a recent political agreement with Atiku Abubakar.
It can be noted that the political figures Peter Obi and Atiku, who are not Labour Party representatives, have now joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC), a political party.
The singer took to social media to simply state to Peter Obi’s followers: “Now that Peter Obi has gone back home to Atiku, I don’t need to mention anything about Obidients anymore.”
Nigerian activist VeryDarkMan reacts to Daniel Bwala’s comment on the absence of politician Peter Obi visiting Benue State after the recent violent attacks.
It can be recalled that Benue State recently suffered violent attacks that resulted in many victims and deaths. Many powerful and influential figures in the nation visited the state to show their concern and support for the victims.
It can also be noted that VeryDarkMan was among them. However, Daniel Bwala came out to call out Peter Obi for lacking empathy because he did not visit. In response, VeryDarkMan spoke in defense of the politician:
“Mr. Bwala, you said Peter Obi was not there and lacks empathy. Let me break it down. I’m not trying to support Peter Obi here, but in April 2025, Peter Obi was stopped from going into Benue State by the governor… Since Peter Obi and his people started the ADC thing, all of Una just dey restless. Wike go talk today, you go talk tomorrow, and them never even give am presidential ticket yet…”
Daniel Bwala, a former aide to Atiku Abubakar, has shared strong doubts about the former vice president’s chances of ever becoming Nigeria’s president. Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Bwala openly stated that Atiku might not be destined to lead the country, despite years of trying.
“In my honest view, it may not be in God’s plan for him to be president,” Bwala said. “He has done all he could, but it just didn’t happen.” He pointed to the 2023 elections as Atiku’s best shot, calling it a missed opportunity that may never come again.
Bwala, who was once Atiku’s campaign spokesperson, has now shifted his support to President Bola Tinubu and doesn’t believe any of the current opposition figures; including Peter Obi and Rotimi Amaechi; stand a real chance in 2027.
