Obi Accuses INEC Chief of Bias | Nigeria News

Peter Obi, Labour Party presidential candidate in 2023, dropped a bombshell claiming INEC Chairman Professor Mahmood Yakubu worked for the opposition during that election—though he didn’t name which party. Yakubu had declared Bola Tinubu of the APC the winner, defeating Atiku Abubakar of the PDP and Obi himself, who came third. Obi had previously challenged the results in court, but both the tribunal and Supreme Court rejected his petitions. This fresh allegation reignites debates over electoral fairness and the impartiality of Nigeria’s electoral body, underscoring the deep political divisions lingering after a highly contested race.
