Former Anambra State governor and Labour Party presidential candidate in the 2023 election, Peter Obi, has confirmed his intention to contest the 2027 presidential election.
Â
While speaking on an extended interaction on X, Obi was asked if he will run as Vice Presidential candidate in the 2027 election, Obi said
“So I am flying all over the world to learn how to govern in order to be vice? I am not God. I am going all over the world…I went to Indonesia, I spent one week to 10 days even going outside Jakarta to go and see the President. Do you visit the President to learn how to be vice. I am not God. I might not even be alive in 2027. Are you aware/. One of the best candidates on Brazil d!ed in a chopper. I am happy to God that I am alive. If I tell you the things I encounter, you will not believe it. Every single day.
Do you know how many times I want to travel out of this country and I am not allowed to travel?
 Peter Obi is contesting for the office of the President. I am not God. God knows tomorrow.Â
I am most qualified and I tell anybody I will change this country. I have seen the experience, I have studied and followed it. That is how I work. I have the capacity, competence and compassion.”
