“I want to assure you that I will contest the coming election even if it is held in their bedroom, and if they don’t want to transmit the results, we will transmit them for them”
Former Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi has disclosed the real reason he defected from the Party to the African Democratic Congress, ADC.
Obi spoke in Uyo, Akwa Ibom Saturday during the OBIDIENT Conference and his official declaration for ADC. The theme of the Conference is: “Activating the PO Effect in ADC.”
On why he dumped the LP, Obi disclosed: “I left LP when I got informed that as long as I remain in the Party, INEC will not recognise its leadership, that the Federal Government doesn’t want me on the ballot.”
But a defiant Obi told hus excited listeners: “I want to assure you that I will contest the coming election even if it is held in their bedroom. And if they don’t want to Transmit the results, we will Transmit them for them.”
Taking on the President Bola Tinubu administration he said: “The current administration has collected more loans than every other administration, and most of these loans will be repaid from 2045 to 2050 when most of the people who plunged the country into thus indebtedness are no more.”
Obi then issued a stern warning to Nigerians and election officials regarding the 2027 elections.
In a statement he shared on social media, Obi said:
“Unlike in the past, in 2027 our votes MUST count, and all those who are there not to count the votes will be counted among those destroying Nigeria. I encourage everyone to remain at the polling units after voting to count and witness the counting and transmission of results. Those who refuse to allow the votes count will be made to count the full weight of the law against rigging. Let me reiterate: if you do not count our votes, we will count you among those who destroy our democracy, thereby destroying our future, and you must answer to the law.”
Obi’s message underscores the importance of vigilance at the polls and the need for the integrity of the electoral process to be upheld. He called on Nigerians to observe the counting of votes and warned that anyone attempting to subvert the people’s mandate will face legal consequences.
