2023: It’ll be Miracle of The Century if Peter Obi Wins – Minister

Olorunnimbe Mamora, the Minister of Science and Technology, has foreseen that it will be a miracle for the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi to win next year’s general election.

Mamora stated this when he appeared on Political Paradigm, a Channels Television programme, aired on Tuesday.

Speaking during the programme, the minister said Obi doesn’t have the necessary structure in place to secure victory.

The minister cited LP’s candidate being an independent candidate as a barrier to Obi winning the 2023 poll.

He said:

What I see, with all due respect, is what you can call independent candidacy in Labour, and to the best of my knowledge, even in America, no independent candidate has ever won the presidency.

“They can win in the senate or house of representatives but not in the presidential. So, it will be a miracle of the century.

“I won’t dismiss it (support for Peter Obi) but it doesn’t seem to me that it will be as such as would cause havoc in this system at the end of the day.

“This is because we do our checks on a regular basis. We look at the spread; we look at the capacity on the ground. You see, you cannot underrate the role of structures in politics and particularly in elections because this is the reality. There are many logistics involved in electioneering,”

The same way all these people are saying they will back Peter Obi is the same way they are saying they will back other candidates, especially those frontline candidates.”
