IMMEDIATE past governor of Anambra State, Mr. Peter said weekend that no amount of pressure would make him change his mind to go for any elective position in Nigeria. Speaking with reporters at Ochuche in Ogbaru local government area of Anambra State where his former commissioner for local government and chieftaincy affairs, Mr. Dubem Obaze received a chieftaincy title from all traditional rulers in Anambra North senatorial zone, Obi, however said he is prepared to serve Nigeria in any capacity. Obi’s entry into the venue of the ceremony sent jubilation among the audience, with most politicians who graced the occasion swarming his sitting position to greet and have a handshake with him. https://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/06/wont-contest-election-obi/

We the Obedients dragged him out to contest and we are happy that he listened to us. Peter Obi roundly humiliated tinubu in Lagos and performed Excellency well beyond everybody's expectation to the point that tinubu had to rig through the help of Wike to become president. We Love Peter Obi with all our body and soul and will stand solidly by him forever. We awaits 2027 and by Almighty allah and the support of good people of Nigeria, Obi will win. God bless you sir Mr Peter Obi

I read the article from top to bottom. The context he was talking about is about senate. Unlike some ex governors that pursued senatorial ambition, Obi said he will not join that route. |

What is the meaning all these attacks on Obi? Is it to distract us from government inefficiencies? This obsession is becoming so annoying. Obi this Obi that. Is it going to better Nigerian economy? Is it going to stop the 700billon plus that will be looted in the name of rehabilitating MM airport? APC should know that you can full some people sometimes but you can't full all the people all the time |

Melezenawii:That's how u people will also say after his imaginary first term that you forced him to contest for the Second term and he obliged because u force his so it's not his fault. The Big Questions is (in Okinbaloye's voice) WHY SHOULD THE NORTH BELIEVE THAT HE WILL ONLY SERVE ONE TERM LIKE HE PROMISED WHEN HE CAN BE FORCED TO SERVE THE SECOND BY YOU PEOPLE? No Be Juju Be Dat? |

That means he could just end up being the next president like Buhari, who also wept in 2011 and vowed not to run again but was brought out by the coalition to run in 2015. You know the rest of the story. Nlfpmod how do you see this? |
| Re: Throwback 2014: I Won’t Contest Election Again – Peter Obi by immaculatesense(m): 3:20pm On Aug 06, 2025 |
LagosOrigin:I won't go to Senate is different from I won't contest election AGAIN. You no know English again? WIKE: I won't go to Senate. OBI: I won't contest election Again. If Wike goes to Senate he breaks his promise but he can go for other positions. If Obi contest election again be it Senate, Reps, President, VP, he breaks his promise but he can be appointed as Minister or Ambassador. OBI talks without thinking same with I will Never leave APGA. No Be Juju Be Dat? |

immaculatesense:Those that will vote for him will vote for him. Wetin concern APC and Obi's promises? In fact, APC should be reminding Tinubu that they won't elect him again because he has failed to provide stable electricity for all. Which he told his supporters not to elect him agaim if he fails. |

| Re: Throwback 2014: I Won’t Contest Election Again – Peter Obi by Jokay07(m): 4:19pm On Aug 06, 2025 |
jmoore:Your comprehension is very shallow (no offence). Obi said that he won't contest any election again but you are here talking about senetorial election. Then I asked you, is presidential position gotten by appointment or by election? |
| Re: Throwback 2014: I Won’t Contest Election Again – Peter Obi by immaculatesense(m): 4:25pm On Aug 06, 2025 |
jmoore:Na Obi talk am himself o say make we hold am by him balls on his ANTECEDENTS. Now.we dey exhume him ANTECEDENTS una dey cry. Tinubu is currently providing for me over 20hrs electricity daily. It will soon get to you just chill. It's just two year. I am sure it will get to you before the end of the four years like he promised. Abi na 2 years he promise you? No Be Juju Be Dat? |

Jokay07:Oga, you're on point ☝️. One thing you should also know is that for you to become an obedient, you have to leave your brain behind. So when someone tells you that presidential election is different from other elections, just ignore. |

Melezenawii:So we should do what with this rubbish which had to do with legislative post. So we should vote SW president because he said it is his turn.He has destroyed nigeria in just 2 yrs. We have come to realise that the south must complete 8 yrs is all about SW president and not about south. If is about south president why have you all be crying since obi said he will do only 4 yrs to complete the cycle. We the SS and SE is knows all this time SW president does not represent southern tenure. It is only about yoruba and lagos monopoly to the rest of the country |

If only agbados had put their god under the microscope like they are doing for Obi, they would have long realised that the looter of Lagos has nothing good to offer anyone other than himself and his cronies. Go and verify. Tinubu's mantra while governor of Lagos was Jeun s'oke which was a rallying cry to loot the Lagos treasury along with his band of looters. And loot they did. The result today is over a trillion naira in debt with precious little to show for it. |

Kukutente23:Ahhh... Na me dey lie abi na u? After he last out in the presidential primary of the PDP, some thought he would go to the Senate and even the person with the senatorial mandate from his district was ready to relinquish the ticket for him just like Akpabio and Umahi did but he rejected and said he won't go to the Senate. I am not aware of the minister and VP stuff. I only knew he said he doesn't want to be VP to ATIKU. |

Kukutente23:Which link? Is English difficult for u to understand? Wike: I will not accept VP. The context was to be VP to Atiku since the statement was made during the fall out of the presidential primary. Wike: I am not interested in being Minister. The context was made when PDP was trying to prevail on him to support the party and he was being lobbied to be rewarded with Petroleum Minister. He said he is not interested (not he will NEVER BE) in being a minister. OBI: I will NEVER CONTEST ELECTION AGAIN. |
