In the next presidential election on February 25, Peter Obi, the nominee of the Labour Party (LP), has been hailed by former president Olusegun Obasanjo as the greatest candidate for a better Nigeria.

In a recent interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, Obasanjo made this revelation.

Despite President Bola Tinubu being declared the winner of the last election, the former president said Obi remains the candidate that Nigeria needs.

As reported by Tribune, he said:

“For the Nigeria that I believe we need to have at this point in time, Peter Obi is still the best (pauses) man.”
Recall the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had in March declared the then-candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress Bola Tinubu as the winner of the keenly contested February 25 presidential poll.

Obi is currently in court challenging the process that declared Tinubu winner of the 2023 presidential election with many Nigerians diverting their attention on the judiciary.
