Disturbed by the mischief of political opponents, the camp of the former presidential candidate in the 2023 general election, and Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) bigwig, Mr. Peter Obi has raised alarm over a certain primary election figure in circulation and has advised the public not to pay any attention to it.
This advice was given by Mallam Ibrahim Umar, Spokesman of Peter Obi Media Office, in a press statement made available to reporters in Abuja on Tuesday.
The statement reads: “The attention of the Peter Obi Media Office has been drawn to certain 45 million primary vote figures currently circulating on social media and various news platforms, purporting to be the breakdown of official results from an imaginary primary by the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC ascribed to Mr Peter Obi.
“We wish to state categorically that these figures are entirely false, fabricated, as such, the primary never took place and no figure was generated from any process.
“We urge the general public, party supporters, and members of the press and the public to completely disregard these misleading statistics.
“Official and accurate information regarding Mr Peter Obi’s engagements and political processes will always be communicated through our verified and authorised channels and appropriately signed.
Those behind this fraudulent figure attribution to Peter Obi are looking for partners in their fraud but they should look elsewhere not with Peter Obi.”
