Doyin Okupe, Labour Party (LP) chieftain, is adamant that Peter Obi will prevail in the 2023 presidential election.
In response to ThisDay Election Centre Projections, the lawmaker provided insight on Tuesday.
Okupe said the projections were “false, bogus and do not represent the actual situation on ground across the nation”.
The former presidential aide declared that they were “essentially aimed at misinforming the public”.
According to Okupe, the estimates disregarded a number of crucial election factors that have been in place in Nigeria’s political system for more than 60 years.
“Without any doubt, PO will score 25% in no less than 24/25 states including Taraba, Adamawa and Gombe, and will lead all the other 3 numerically.
“He is the candidate to beat. Peter Obi will win and lead massively in the SE (South-East) averagely (70%) including all states in the SS (South-South).
“In the SW (South-West), PO will score minimum of 40% in Lagos. 25% in Ogun, Oyo, Ekiti and Ondo.
“Osun 15% min. NW (North-West) 40% min in Kaduna, and no less than 10% of all the other 6 states, mainly because of Igbo residents”, he tweeted.
Okupe, a former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), was until recently the Director General of Peter Obi/Yusuf Baba-Ahmed Campaign.
