The All Progressives Congress (APC) has called Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in 2023 General Elections, a habitual complainer.
The APC’s National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, on Wednesday, labelled Obi with the name when he spoke on TVC news.
Morka stressed that the former Anambra State Governor has refused to accept the result of any election that does not favour him or his candidates.
Morka’s remarks was sequel to Obi’s statement on the recent Edo State governorship election result which saw Monday Okpebholo of the APC declared as the winner by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Obi had said that the Edo election was an example of state capture which undermines Nigeria’s democracy. This followed the poor number of votes his party’s candidate, Olumide Akpata got in the election.
He also emphasised that Obi’s views on the election hold no significance.

Morka said: “Peter Obi is a serial complainer who will not accept the result of any election that is not in his favour or candidates that he supports.
“Since the 2023 election, Obi has been in consistent denial of that election. He has a new pet project which is to deny the Edo State election. Whatever he thinks of the Edo election is completely irrelevant.
“I think Akpata and Ighodalo have a legitimate interest in that election and if they are not satisfied, they should do what they must do which is to head to court and prove the allegations that they are handling around now. They are spreading unsubstantiated allegations.
“I have not listened to any of them finishing any evidence of the high-sounding allegations that they make. When you get to court, it’s not about the headlines; you must break it down to realistic evidence to support your argument of winning the elections.”
