2027: Peter Obi responds to Wike’s claim that he’ll suffer if Tinubu loses election

Presidential candidate Peter Obi dismissed claims made by FCT Minister Nyesom Wike that he would suffer if President Bola Tinubu loses the 2027 general elections. Wike had stated during a media interview that he and others, such as former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and Obi himself, would be among the first to face repercussions from a Tinubu defeat.

However, Obi firmly rejected Wike's assertion, stating that he would not waste Nigeria's time and resources on personal vendettas. He emphasized that campaigning for president should not involve pursuing individuals who did not support him or had wronged him. Obi reiterated his commitment to serving Nigeria by ensuring proper governance within the law and available resources, without targeting anyone.
