Peter Obi speaking to journalist at his polling unit
The Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, says Nigerians supporting him are doing it for themselves rather than for him.
“Nobody is supporting me. Those supporting me are supporting themselves. I’m supporting myself. We all want a better Nigeria,” Mr Obi said.
“I’m feeling the pressure of the support,” he added. “This Obidient is not for free. It’s a trust. I cannot betray the trust. If I do, God will punish me.”
Mr Obi disclosed this to journalists at his polling unit on Saturday morning.
Mr Obi is contesting the Nigerian presidency against Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party, Bola Tinubu of All Progressives Congress and other candidates.
