Mr Peter Obi, the former Governor of Anambra state, has declared his interest to contest for the office of the president of Nigeria in the coming 2023 general elections.

 

His declaration of interest came after his 2019 running mate, Atiku Abubakar, formerly declared interest yesterday at the international conference center in Abuja

 

Mr Peter Obi, made the declaration in Awka at a gathering of traditional rulers in Anambra State, where the traditional rulers prayed for him and gave him their support.

Quick checks on Mr Peter Obi’s verified Twitter page, where signed tweets are posted by his P.O, didn’t show any official statement of his declaration to contest for president in 2023…

 

 

 

However, second checks moments later, revealed that the formner Anambra state governor, had made an official notice on his handle, in a tweet which reads;
