Reports linking Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, to quitting the election process on February 25 have been debunked by the media arm of the Labour Party Presidential Campaign Council.<\/p>\n

The Obi-Datti Media Office claimed that some unnamed political parties had copied Obi’s image on gifts in an effort to portray him as someone who is attempting to sway votes in his favor by offering incentives.<\/p>\n

The Obi-Datti Campaign Media office<\/a> referred to the report as absurd and fake in a statement released on Friday.<\/p>\n

\u201cNothing can be more absurd than the fact that 18 persons are in a marathon to pick a trophy and somebody is suggesting that the front runner in the race who is already sighting the trophy wants to step down for somebody behind.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fact that other parties contesting for the president have been cloning the LP candidate in their corruptly induced gift items like bags of rice, posters and bill boards speak volume of who is the man to beat in this race.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince June 2022 when Obi emerged as the flag bearer of the Labour Party alongside other presidential contestants, the Labour Party and its presidential campaign have increased in leaps and bounds attracting both local and global attention. The truth is that Peter Obi\u2019s performance is now the standard by which other contestants and their parties are being measured.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fact that the other parties struggle to associate their own candidates with Obi, even without his consent, says it all who should be associated with withdrawing or discontinuing in the race.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn an ideal clime where respect is accorded to merit and other audacious qualifications, other presidential candidates should have honourably thrown in the towel,\u201d the statement read in part.<\/p>\n

The media office also noted that the reason for coming up with the report is not unconnected with the desire to distract Obi from the race, in hope that doing so would give them (those behind the report) possible hope of winning.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat those flying the unreasonable and ridiculous kite are trying to achieve which appeared dead on arrival, is firstly to give themselves the fake hope that they are in the race to win; secondly to distract and remove our candidate\u2019s eye from the ball where it\u2019s already glued to and thirdly, to inject confusion in the mind of the public.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter being confirmed to be ahead by four scientifically conducted opinion polls, it would be laughable to suggest even as a joke that Obi is considering stepping down, for who, for God\u2019s sake?<\/p>\n

\u201cBut we understand their handicap of living in the past and refusing to buy into the raging idea whose time has come that the most vibrant and vigorous arm of the country\u2019s populace, the youths are resolute and already charged to take back their country and that they have found in the LP standard bearer, Obi the right man for this journey whose destination is already known.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s either that the purveyors of this ignoble news<\/a> are incomprehensible and unintelligible about the developing political dynamics in the country or that they are clear agents of mischief hoping to inject confusion in the polity.<\/p>\n

\u201cGiven what is in the political space around the leading presidential candidates since the electioneering, it\u2019s crystal clear that the obviously established filthy and disgustingly dirty candidates should be the ones who should be bowing out to give way for the revolution whose time has come,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
