I Will Stop Campaigning If Anyone Can Prove I Took Labour Party’s Donations— Obi by SlavaUkraini(op): 7:51am
The Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has said that he would stop campaigning if anyone can prove be took 1% of Labour Party donation.

Obi made the vow on Tuesday during an exclusive interview on Nevon Media hosted by Oseni Rufai.

He was reacting to an allegation that he and human rights activist, Aisha Yesufu, siphoned Labour Party’s donations for the 2023 general elections.

I don’t go by people talking nonsensical and listen to them. He said that we took from Labor Party’s account 10 billion naira or $30 million. Where is the account?

“I’m going to include every accuser very soon in the list of the people I want to come out and prove that I took money from the Labour Party’s account or any financial mismanagement allegation.

Look, if anyone can prove that I took 1% of Labour Party’s donations, I will stop campaigning,” Obi said.

Not really all about funds.
You failed to manage the crisis in LP ,and later abandoned the party.
That's not a good one for a good leader.

Show me any other presidential candidate who made money outside politics and is still into humanitarian aids as Obi. Also show me any other politician who rejected land gift and pensions as Obi and still goes about doling out money in millions to support education like Obi. Even if you are paid, try to be rational.

Peter Obi is a very interesting man.
Many people love him secretly but spite him publicly because they don't want to offend their paymasters.

It might not be a good one but Obi is still the most competent leader on the ballot right now.

Tinubu can't even wipe Obi's shoes. Never.

First off, this was a car crash interview the likes of which we have never seen in Nigeria.

Considering Rufai was restrained in tearing into Peter Obí and his banal words during this interview, Peter Obí still came out of it very badly.

Grabbing the interviewers hands, putting his hands on his shoulders, the optics were very poor, before we even get to the verbals.

Back to the topic, we know Peter Obi didn't take any money directly, we also know it was his expenses that was paid off so why the play on words by him as they are one and the same. The flights, the food, the hotels etc, that's what people are referring to.

And when they do, he will run to court to get a restraining order .

Why did he not go through on his threat to sue Deji and Peoples Gazette?

Why is he acting as if he doesn't know the LP leader that went on air to drop that allegation that he and Aisha embezzled #12bn from LP campaign funds?

And his Nostradamus senses didn't guide him not to join ADC before branching to NDC.

The only reason he left LP was because Abure had insisted on primaries to select their next flag bearer and Obi knew he can not win LP primaries due to how he treated LP candidates from outside the SE.

Even the LP gubernatorial candidate was thrown under the bus by Obi who asked Wike openly to leave presidency for him in exchange for Wike getting the governorship.

How do you think Rivers LP felt about that statement?

Let's be honest with ourselves, there is nothing PO would have righteously do since it was obvious that the federal government had a hand in the crisis.

The only way was to pay the aggrieved parties but then PO doesn't do transactional politics.

If you look at it you see that PO had been right about the authentic chairperson of the lp party.

Y didn't he do humanitarian work as governor?

Even after he left office, y didn't he do it?

So it was only when he wanted to become president that he started humanitarian work?

Only a fool can b fooled


Where did he reject land gift n pensions?

I guess u were there n u were d one that signed d documents of rejection?

He's dolling millions out for education now but lecturers n their family went hungry under him for good 6 months n he couldn't pay their salary?

Same man increased tuition fee n said education wasn't meant for the poor, but suddenly he's here trying to win u gullible lots to his side.

I insist that Peter Giringory is not to be trusted and thus a fraud!
I will not tell Nigerians how I will generate 10,000MW of electricity. It’s not for them to know. They just have to believe me and vote for me — Peter Obi

The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has insisted that Nigerians do not need to know how he plans to deliver 10,000 megawatts of electricity if elected president, saying they only need to trust him based on his track record.

Speaking during an interview with media personality Rufai Oseni, Obi was pressed to explain his promise to increase Nigeria’s power generation capacity to at least 10,000MW within four years.

When asked to provide a detailed roadmap, Obi declined, arguing that political leaders are often judged by their credibility rather than by publicly disclosing every aspect of their plans.

“No, no, no, I’m not going to tell you how. It is not for you to know how. It is for you to look at the man who is saying this,” Obi said.

The former Anambra governor maintained that he had a history of fulfilling promises while in office and reiterated his commitment to improving Nigeria’s electricity supply.

“I have said, and I repeat, that in four years we will generate, transmit, and distribute at least 10,000 megawatts of electricity,” he stated.

As Rufai Oseni, the host, continued to demand specifics, Obi stood his ground, insisting that voters should focus on whether they trust him to deliver.

“They don’t need to know. They need to believe in me,” he said.

Obi also criticized successive governments over Nigeria’s power sector, claiming that no new government-owned power plant had been commissioned since 2015. 

He contrasted Nigeria’s performance with countries such as Indonesia, India and Egypt, which he said significantly expanded their electricity generation capacity over the same period.

According to Obi, achieving higher power output is “not rocket science,” adding that he has studied successful models in other countries and understands what is required to replicate such progress in Nigeria.
“My commitment is that I will deliver it. I have my name on it,” he said.
Like Tinubu like Peter Obi! Nigerians have better choices in an Osinbajo, Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, Peter Mbah et all
