A founding member of Arewa Consultative Forum, ACF, Tanko Yakasai said Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP needs to endure and more time to learn about the electoral process of Nigeria.

Yakasai stated this while speaking in an interview with Arise Television on Thursday.

The elder statesman pleaded with Obi to be patient enough, saying he would be successful politician only if he could endure.

He said, “Anybody that is contesting or starting something for the first time is in learning process. Peter Obi is new to the world. He has lot of time to learn. Peter Obi needs to be patient and endure. He needs lot of time to learn about the process.”

Recall that Obi had earlier today (Thursday) addressed a press conference in Abuja, stating that declaration of a winner in the just-concluded presidential election was not the end.

It was the first time Obi will speak to the public or address a press conference after losing the 2023 presidential election.

Obi said, “We will explore all the legal and peaceful means to reclaim our mandate. We won the election. Datti and I are committed to the mandate of Nigerians.”

The Labour Party candidate vowed to challenge the process of the Saturday, February 25 presidential election in the court.

AbaCityBlog reports that the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof. Yakubu Mahmood on Wednesday morning declared the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as winner of the election.

Yakubu, who announced the final result at exactly 3:55 am Wednesday, after three days of collation of results from across the 36 states of the federation and FCT, said Tinubu polled a total 8,794,726 votes.

The INEC Chairman said that Tinubu defeated Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) who recorded 6,984,520 votes and Peter Obi of Labour Party (LP) who polled 6,101,533 votes to come second and third respectively.

Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) was fourth with 1,496,687 votes.
