The Labour Party‘s (LP) Peter Obi has been invited by Chatham House, a major policy institute and think-tank forum, to speak about his ideas for Nigerians in advance of the February 25, 2023, presidential elections.
Former Anambra State governor Obi is anticipated to attend the event scheduled for January 16, 2023 in London, United Kingdom. The event is one of several gatherings and products that look at Nigeria’s elections in 2023.
Bola Tinubu, Obi’s All Progressives Congress (APC) rival, made a presentation at Chatham House in London on December 5, 2022, where he discussed some of his proposals for important fields like technology, education, military, and the economy.
As part of the event, which drew harsh criticism, Tinubu also assigned some of his loyalists, including governors and MPs now in office, to respond to questions from attendees.
Obi, Tinubu and Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are the leading candidates in the 2023 presidential race.
One woman is running for president of Nigeria out of the 18 candidates, but experts says she has no chance of winning, and neither do the other 13 contestants.
According to the majority of analysts, only four candidates; Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Atiku Abubakar of the main opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP), and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), have a chance of winning or influencing the outcome of the presidential election in February 2019.
Peter Obi is the youngest of the four at 61 years old, despite the call for leaders from a younger age. They are all familiar with one another and with Nigerian politics.
