Nigeria: Wike Challenges Obi's Supporters to Produce Result Sheet Showing He Won Rivers in 2023
- On Monday, FCT Minister Nyesom Wike dismissed claims by Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi and the 'Obidient' movement that they won the 2023 presidential election in Rivers State, asserting their victories existed only in their imagination.
- Speaking on TVC's Journalists Hangout in Abuja, Wike insisted that political victories are determined at polling units and declared by the Independent National Electoral Commission, not on social media.
- Rivers State possesses over 7,000 polling units across 23 local government areas; Wike argued that even if 200 units favored Obi or Atiku, results require INEC verification to be valid.
- Recalling his 2019 victory, Wike rejected advice from his late brother, Herbert Wigwe, to flee the state before the election despite facing federal pressure and political opposition.
- Addressing threats from rivals ahead of the 2027 general elections, the FCT Minister expressed unwavering confidence, boasting that the upcoming contest will be his easiest political race yet.
