Nigerian Democratic Congress presidential candidate Peter Obi has challenged critics to prove any misappropriation of funds during his time as Anambra State governor. This challenge was made during a meeting with Nigerians in Washington, D.C. Obi stated that he would halt his 2027 presidential campaign if anyone could prove that 1% of the funds he managed as governor were misappropriated.
He clarified, "I was Governor of Anambra State for eight years and received about half a trillion naira. If you can trace where 1% of it was misappropriated, I will stop campaigning. I won’t say anything again concerning the 2027 presidential election." This remark follows a statement from the current Anambra State government, which revealed they are still repaying loans and liabilities left over from previous administrations, including Obi's.
