2023 Elections: Peter Obi has disrupted a two-horse race – The Financial Times

The global media organization reported that Obi has unsettled some individuals and complicated the outcome of the upcoming presidential election. .

In the initial round of voting on February 25, Obi will be up against two other veteran politicians who have more financial resources and party backing. Bola Tinubu, a 70-year-old former governor of Lagos, is deemed the principal challenger.

Atiku Abubakar, a 76-year-old former vice president, is running for the People’s Democratic party. A few months back, the majority of Nigerians anticipated that the competition would be between these two affluent septuagenarians.

However, Obi, a businessman and ex-governor with a meticulously built reputation for not being interested in power, is something novel. This presents a substantial opening for him.

As per the report, Obi, who is running as a third-party candidate, is performing well in the race, signifying that a run-off election could take place.
