In the 2023 elections Peter Obi pulled off what must count as a major miracle in Nigerian politics. He led an erstwhile politically irrelevant and perennially underperforming Labour party platform that managed to garner only 5,074 votes nationwide in the 2019 presidential election to a 6,101,533 votetally in the 2023 presidential elections – a staggering 120,000% improvement in performance.
