An NDC chieftain in Abia State, Uko Nkole, warned the Presidency that Peter Obi would not withdraw from the presidential race following recent Anambra State Government allegations of unpaid loans during Obi's tenure as governor. Nkole, who is also the Abia North Senatorial candidate of the NDC, accused Governor Charles Soludo of collaborating with the Presidency in attempting to prevent Obi's participation in the 2027 presidential race.
Nkole stated that this strategy had failed and that Obi was gaining popularity despite the reports. He further accused the Presidency of being fearful of the 2023 Obi wave, which was prompting them to seek ways to discredit the NDC presidential candidate. Nkole assured that all allegations against Obi were unfounded, and urged the Independent National Electoral Commission to not repeat the network glitch excuse from 2023, warning Nigerians against manipulation on election day.
