In a related development, Doyin Okupe, the director-general of the Obi-Datti Campaign Organisation, recently listed the states he believed the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, would win in 2023.

Okupe, who is also a former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, went on to predict the 2023 presidential election results in favour of his principal, Obi.

The Obi-Datti campaign DG said Obi, will win:

  • All five states in the southeast
  • All the six states in the south-south
  • Four states in the northcentral.

Okupe's projection indicates Obi will win 15 states in 2023. He added that the LP flagbearer will secure 25% in the six states in the southwest.
