2023 Election: Will Peter Obi’s “No Shi Shi” Survive “Money Bags” Politics
The 2023 presidential election is only a day away, but unlike past elections, it’s a challenging task to predict the outcome of what appears like a four-horse race.
Going formidably to the poll are the Labour Party’s Peter Obi, PDP’s Atiku Abubakar, Bola Tinubu of the APC and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of the NNPP.
The Labour Party and Peter Obi have, since the beginning of the presidential election campaign, continued to ride on the goodwill of Nigerian youths who have volunteered to campaign for the LP candidate with their resources, spending hours on social media and making themselves available at rallies without being hired, unlike what used to be the case during campaigns.
