The All Progressives Congress (APC) has labeled Peter Obi, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, as a habitual complainer.
Felix Morka, the APC’s National Publicity Secretary, accused Obi of consistently refusing to accept election outcomes that do not favor him or his candidates.
Morka’s comments came in response to Obi’s remarks regarding the Edo State governorship election result, which declared Monday Okpebholo of the APC as the winner.
Speaking in an interview with Arise TV on Wednesday, Morka further stressed that Obi’s opinions on the election carry no weight.

“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,” he stated.
Following the announcement of the Edo election results, Peter Obi criticized the process, describing it as a “blatant example of state capture” that undermines Nigeria’s democratic principles.
He warned that such flawed methods of leadership selection could have serious repercussions for the nation and called on the authorities to take decisive action to address the issue.
