Labor Party (LP) presidential candidate Peter Obi admitted on Monday that the road to regaining his powers in court will be difficult.
The former governor of Anambra said he was not questioning the statements of president-elect Asiwaju Bola Tinub, but the process that led to his statements.
On Monday's TV show, Obi urged his supporters to keep calm as they questioned the outcome of the Feb. 25 presidential election.
Regarding a possible partnership with the People's Democratic Party (PDP), Obi said that such would not be possible, except that he "questions the wrong process created by INEC to serve a specific purpose." Said nothing.
He said:
"It's been a very tough and difficult road so far because we're trying to change what we're standing in. So it will be difficult. “My appeal to Nigerians is to stay calm and pray for our country, Nigeria.There is no other country but Nigeria.
"I'm not questioning who they declared, the consequences, the process, otherwise we can't change the atrocity that happened."
Obi said Nigeria's problem is to accept what is wrong or unacceptable as God's desire for the country.
The LP candidate said God doesn't want people to be unhappy and that's what the Submissive Movement is trying to change.
He said:
"Nigeria's problem is accepting the unacceptable. It is not God's will.
God wants you to do the right thing. Is it God's will that we, as a nation, remain poor even though God's grace has been bestowed upon us? "
He said Nigeria remains decadent in a continuing state of moral decline
Because people continue to accept that they are wrong and draw God into it.
He pointed out that the submissive movement is in the system to change it and create a new egalitarian society.
The former governor of Anambra state said it was a sad fact that Nigeria had failed to hold good elections after his 63 years as a nation, arguing that the 2022 electoral law would help ensure freedom. fair and credible elections;
Obi said while he is pursuing his mandate through legal and peaceful means, it's disheartening that rule of law is being treated with levity by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC which is a public institution maintained by taxpayer's money.
Obi also gave clarifications on his support for Labour Party governorship candidates in some states, saying that he supports LP ticket holders in Enugu, Abia, Lagos, and Plateau States among others 100 percent and directs his supporters to vote for them.
On the ethnic tension in Lagos state over his victory on the February 25 poll ahead of the governorship election, Obi said it's not ethnic but some mischievous persons are trying to create such an impression pointing out that many more non-Igbos and Yorubas who share the aspiration for new Nigeria voted for him.
He explained that even if Igbos voted for him, it was not the first time they are voting for people having voted massively for Olusegun Obasanjo even when he lost in his region and they also gave Jonathan more votes than South-South States and all these brouhahas did not happen.
