Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai has stated that Peter
Obi cannot win the 2023 presidential election.
El-Rufai said the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate
does not have the numbers, describing him as a Nollywood actor.
The race is between the All Progressives Congress (APC) and
the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), he declared.
El-Rufai dismissed Obi’s popularity, saying he’ll only get
votes in the South-East and some parts of the South-South.
The APC stalwart said votes in only one Local Government
Area in Kaduna will cancel votes in Anambra.
The LP flagbearer was governor of the State for eight years
under the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) platform.
In an interview with TVC, El-Rufai said Obi is polling one
percent in Sokoto, two percent in Katsina, and five percent in Kano.
“Doing 70 percent in Anambra State does not mean somebody
doing 10 percent in Kano is not better than you.
“Kano is 4 million votes…Yes, Peter Obi will sweep Southern
States, he will do well in South-South, where else?” He queried.
El-Rufai added that Obi is not polling well in the
South-West “other than a drop of ocean in Lagos”.
“He is polling in Christian enclaves in the North, but how
many are they?” the governor quipped.
He said “ethnicity and religious bigotry will not take you
anywhere”, maintaining that the election is APC versus PDP “because they have
the footprint”.
Peter Obi will compete with Bola Tinubu of the APC, PDP’s
Atiku Abubakar and NNPP’s Rabiu Kwankwaso on February 25.
