Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has described presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the February 25 presidential election, Peter Obi, as still the best candidate for a better Nigeria.
Obasanjo disclosed this in a recent chat with media personality, Chude Jideonwo.
Despite Tinubu being declared the winner of the last election, the former president said Obi remained the candidate that Nigeria needed.
“For the Nigeria that I believe we need to have at this point in time, Peter Obi is still the best (pauses) man,” he told the anchor.

Obi is in court challenging the process that declared Tinubu winner of the 2023 presidential election. (With reports from GWG)
