Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Peter Obi is going into the February 25 election as a frontrunner doing good numbers in polls, months after his ambition was dismissed by those who now see him as a threat.<\/p>\n

Obi emerged as the LP flagbearer on May 30, 2022, days after resigning his membership in the Peoples Democratic Party. In the 2019 election, he was the running mate of Atiku Abubakar, who, again, won PDP\u2019s 2023 presidential ticket at the Abuja special convention.<\/p>\n

In a speech after defecting, the former Anambra governor decried how those who should take care of people\u2019s welfare were spending dollars on delegates, turning Nigeria into a laughing stock.<\/p>\n

The popularity of the 61-year-old ex-bank chief surged after he joined forces with the LP and a section of the youth demographic took his ambition as a personal project, campaigning on and off social media.<\/p>\n

Replying to mockers who said the LP has no \u201cstructure\u201d (offices and members in 774 local government areas), Obi\u2019s followers\u2015known as Obidients\u2015usually describe themselves as the structure that would mobilize the grassroots.<\/p>\n

Obi, known for his \u201cfrom consumption to production\u201d advocacy, promises to fight corruption and insecurity, create jobs and a conducive environment for businesses, and improve education, healthcare, infrastructure and the economy.<\/p>\n

The candidate has received endorsements from prominent individuals including former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Benue Governor Samuel Ortom, Yoruba leader Pa Ayo Adebanjo, Ijaw leader Edwin Clark and Prof Pat Utomi among others.<\/p>\n

Obi, whose campaign is led by Obasanjo\u2019s associate Akin Osuntokun, also has the support of the Southern and Middle Belt Leaders Forum (SMBLF), comprising Afenifere, Ohanaeze Ndigbo and Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF).<\/p>\n

Most of the polls so far put Obi ahead of Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and Rabiu Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP.<\/p>\n

Nextier SPD poll released on February 5 indicated that Obi leads (37%) ahead of Atiku (27%) and Tinubu (24%).<\/p>\n

On February 7, Lagos-based data company Stears announced Obi would win with 41% of the votes, ahead of Tinubu (31%) and Atiku (20%) \u201cas long as Nigerians follow through on their stated intent to vote.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cObi gets 41% of the vote holding a lead over Tinubu, based on the model\u2019s predictions. In a low voter turnout scenario, Tinubu edges the vote,\u201d the researchers asserted.<\/p>\n

Similarly, a poll by Bloomberg on February 10, declared Obi the preferred choice of the majority of 2,384 (66%) respondents scoring, declaring their support for him while 18% support Tinubu and 10% want Atiku.<\/p>\n

The San-Francisco based data company used a stratified sampling based on age, gender, and location across Nigeria\u2019s six geopolitical zones to ensure national representation.<\/p>\n

The results showed Obi has higher numbers among male and female citizens, particularly ages 18-24 and 25-34.<\/p>\n

Earlier, the result of the We2Geda Foundation poll on September 17, 2022, showed Obi ahead of other contenders with 51% of the votes, former Vice President Atiku had 25% and ex-Governor Tinubu with 19%.<\/p>\n

In September and December 2022, ANAP Foundation\/NOI Polls said 23% of voters are rooting for Obi, 13% for Tinubu and 10% for Atiku. In the third ANAP poll released on February 15, Obi was ahead with 21% of voters, followed at a distance by Tinubu with 13%, while Atiku and Kwankwaso had 10% and 3% respectively.<\/p>\n

Not surprisingly, the opposition rejected the figures, accusing the pollsters of bias. They maintain the polls were designed to make Obi look highly rated even outside his geopolitical zone.<\/p>\n

In response to Nextier, the Media Director of the APC Presidential Campaign Council, Bayo Onanuga chastised the public policy advisory firm for turning itself \u201cinto a Nigerian Gallup Poll or Ipsos.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said it is ludicrous that the study projected a clean sweep of the South-East region at over 90% of registered voters and also put Obi ahead of Tinubu in the six South-West states, including Lagos.<\/p>\n

\u201cAssuming without absolutely conceding that Obi will enjoy home advantage, we then wonder why the pollsters thought the factors that will propel landslide victory for Obi in South-East will not work for the APC candidate in his own South-West base,\u201d Onanuga said.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Channels TV, Kwankwaso, a former Kano governor dismissed a poll which predicted he would get only 6% of total results in the North-West, boasting that the NNPP has \u201clocked northern Nigeria.\u201d<\/p>\n

Said he: \u201cEven a madman knows that I\u2019m over and above six per cent or even 60 per cent. We have seen the in-house figures of PDP and APC and they dare not bring them out. Do you see any poll from northern Nigeria?\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cThose polls come from the south and the media that is propagating that fake information is mainly from that part of the country. Polls are on the telephone. Over 90 per cent of my supporters don\u2019t know Twitter or social media. Go to markets in Kano, Rivers, Wuse (Abuja), Sabo (Ibadan).\u201d<\/p>\n

Valentine Ozigbo, Obi\u2019s Special Adviser on Technology and Strategic Alliances, in a statement to DAILY POST, said the results of the polls mirror the campaign\u2019s internal polling, calling them \u201ca natural outcome\u201d of an inspiring candidacy.<\/p>\n

According to him: \u201cPeter Obi is the only candidate taking his message to the hurting masses. Peter Obi goes where even government officials fear going, like Southern Kaduna, Biu, relief camps in Benue, Abuja, and other places where Nigerians live on the margins of society.\u201d<\/p>\n

He further noted: \u201cIt is only natural that after decades of uninspired leadership, Nigerians would embrace a candidate who comes with a fresh message, who has the character to deliver on his promise and the track record to back up his claims.\u201d<\/p>\n

More than 93 million citizens are expected to vote at 176,846 polling units in 774 LGAs, according to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.<\/p>\n

From someone who seemingly had no future in the 2023 presidential election hours after the PDP primary in 2022, Obi, in six months, has become the candidate to beat.<\/p>\n

Now, Nigerians are contemplating that he might finish Saturday\u2019s race as the proverbial dark horse.<\/p>\n
