We are not going to court to challenge an election you rigged and a mandate you stole from the Nigerian people this time.

We would rather meet you in court after our victory, to defend a case that your attempt to rig the election caused your death.

Parents warn your children, children warn your parents.

NDC Press Release 12 Nov 2026

NDC to Shettima: Stop Attacking Statistics, Start Addressing Nigeria's Reality

The obsession of the APC-led government with attacking the candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr Peter Obi, for citing statistics is both troubling and revealing. Instead of confronting the evidence he presents about Nigeria’s worsening economic and social conditions with facts and numbers, the government and its supporters would rather attack the messenger, as well as throwing cheap shots that do not address the real issues.

Statistics are not insults. They are not political weapons. They are tools for measuring progress, exposing failure and guiding public policy. A government that is confident in its performance should welcome scrutiny, not wage war against the numbers.

The shame is in presiding over worsening conditions while refusing to learn from countries that have made measurable progress, using Peter Obi’s model. Nigerians are going through harrowing times and numbers don’t lie. Let’s look at a few.

Petrol rose from an average of N238.11 per litre in May 2023 to between N1,300 and N1,435 per litre in 2026. Fifty kg bag of rice climbed from roughly N35,000 to N40,000 in mid-2023 to between N50,000 and N90,000+ in 2026, depending on the brand and market.

Fifty kg bag of cement increased from roughly N4,010 to N5,300 in 2023 to between N10,500 and N15,000 in 2026. Loaf of bread more than doubled from N500 to N700 in 2023 to N1,200 to N2,000 in 2026. Urban house rent increased by an estimated 80% to 120% in major cities such as Lagos and Abuja.

If the government disagrees with Mr Obi's figures, let it publish credible data, explain its methodology and demonstrate where his analysis is wrong. You do not defeat statistics by insulting the person who cites them. You defeat them with better statistics.

This is precisely why Mr Obi's insistence on evidence, measurable outcomes and learning from successful economies matters. Governance must be about results, not excuses; measurable progress, not propaganda; and the welfare of citizens, not the protection of political reputations.

Let’s examine other countries that could be peers. It’s a fact that Bangladesh is a developing country with a population of about 178 million peoplewhile Nigeria has over 200 million people. It is a verifiable statistic that Bangladesh achieved significant poverty reduction between 2010 and 2022 lifting about 34 million people out of poverty which reduced extreme poverty rates from 12.2% to 5.6%. It is also widely known and confirmed that the significant poverty reduction was achieved through five key pillars- Agricultural growth, Export-oriented manufacturing, microfinance and NGOs, Social Safety Nets and Human Capital/Infrastructure.

As the above pillars through which Bangladesh significantly reduced poverty are not too difficult to understand, the appropriate thing a patriotic and effective government would have done is to humbly and diligently learn to see how Nigeria can also significantly reduce our embarrassing and shameful poverty level. Moreover, just as it is in Bangladesh, so it is of the remarkable leadership in Vietnam, Rwanda, Morocco, India and many other developing nations.

Unfortunately, the incompetent APC government cannot give what it does not have. They are unwilling to learn, limited in their world view and consumed by their quest for state capture and control of our resources. That is the reason why our richly endowed and blessed Nigeria is now classified as the poverty capital of the world with about 63% poverty rate and about over 140 million Nigerians multi-dimensionally poor.
It is also the reason why the recent UNDP report disturbingly noted that all the previous poverty reduction achievements in Nigeria seem to have been reversed. How can our most endowed nation be the country with the highest increase in the number of people falling into poverty?
In a more organized society, the APC government should have resigned.

As the 2027 elections approach, the government should answer Peter Obi’s statistics with facts not attacks. And Nigerians must ask a fundamental question: are we better off today than we were before this government took office? Are more Nigerians escaping poverty? Are our children receiving better education? Are businesses thriving? Are citizens safer? Are public resources producing better outcomes?

We need leaders with the humility to learn, the competence to implement solutions and the courage to be held accountable. Mr. Peter Obi is not asking Nigerians to believe statistics blindly. He is asking them to examine the evidence, compare outcomes and demand better governance.

A new and productive Nigeria is possible. Nigeria will be OK.

Wike pledging N10million to counsellors to deliver their wards in the coming election is already rigging happening before our eyes and its not even causing national uproar 😮, In sane countries, that statement alone disqualifies the Apc but its Nigeria as usual.

[Woozzaa @woozzaabets]

Sets which records straight with that face cap? Abeg!

Do you honestly expect a DG appointed by the President to make statements that contradict the position of the government that appointed him, or paint Obi in a favourable light?

Let's be guided by reason !

[Chinonso Charles @ChinonsoCharl15]

His Excellency Peter Obi and His Excellency Engr. Rabiu Kwankwaso are a partnership made in heaven. Their work ethic is off the charts. Both are presidential material, and either of them can draw a crowd on his own. Together, I believe their ticket is Nigeria’s last chance to turn our country around.

[RUGGEDMAN @RuggedyBaba]

Dear Nigerians,
We are all Nigerians and we all feel this hardship. Do not allow anybody hire you as a thugh to attack other Nigerians, because now Nigerians are not sitting down to be bullied anymore. Do not let Nigerians take out their frustration on you. #election2027

[Àgbà John Doe @jon_d_doe]

As far as I am concerned and we all know this.

Despite all the political attacks on Peter Obi, no one has ever accused him of:

1. Age falsification

2. Certificate forgery

3. Drug related crimes

4. Embezzlement of public funds

5. His heritage or ancestral roots

End.

Bro,

Nigeria is home, but things are bad.

Let us not be lying to ourselves as we are getting older.

Nigerians are suffering and there is no improved electricity. Our generation should not be scared to speak the truth.

Day 8 Of 30 - NOVEMBER 8: The Questions Surrounding Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s Extraordinary Rendition Cannot Be Ignored.

In 2021, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Was Abducted In Kenya And Forcibly Transferred To Nigeria In An Operation That Raised Serious Questions About International Law, Due Process And Respect For National Sovereignty. There Was No Formal Extradition Process. He Was Not Returned Through The Established Legal Channels Governing Extradition Between Countries.

He Was Abducted From Kenya And Delivered Into The Custody Of The Nigerian Government Without The Transparent Legal Process That Such a Transfer Demands. This Was Not a Routine Arrest. It Was An Extraordinary Rendition That Demanded Answers And Accountability.

Yet, The Nigerian Government Proceeded To Prosecute Him As Though The Circumstances Of His Return Were Irrelevant. They Were Not. You Cannot Simply Ignore The Manner In Which a Person Was Brought Into Your Jurisdiction And Pretend That Questions Of Legality And Human Rights Do Not Matter.

What Legal Authority Was Used? What Process Was Followed? Who Authorized The Operation? And Why Has There Been No Satisfactory Accountability For The Manner In Which He Was Brought Back?

These Questions Cannot Be Buried Under A Conviction Or A Life Sentence. A Courtroom Verdict Does Not Automatically Erase The Serious Legal Questions Surrounding The Process That Preceded It.

Sokoto Does Not Erase Kenya. Prison Walls Do Not Rewrite History. And a Life Sentence Cannot Make The Questions Surrounding His Rendition Disappear.

The Rendition Was The Beginning. His Continued Detention Is The Continuation. And Neither Has Addressed The Grievances That Brought Mazi Nnamdi Kanu To The Forefront In The First Place.

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Must Be Released.

within 48 hours - the entire APC hierarchy from the sick old President to all their top brass have mentioned HE Peter Obi in their speeches

The mistake they make is believing Obi is their Opponent

Nigerians are on the ballot through HE Peter Obi.

DAY 7 OF 30 - NOVEMBER 7: Disagree With His Message, But Do Not Ignore The Questions He Raised.

They Want You To Focus On Disagreement So You Will Ignore The Injustice. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Does Not Need Universal Agreement. He Needs The Questions He Forced Into The Open To Be Answered. Unequal Treatment. Political Exclusion. Lack Of Accountability. The Denial Of a Fair Hearing. These Were Not Inventions. They Were Real Concerns That He Refused To Let Remain Hidden.

You Do Not Have To Agree With Every Position He Has Taken To Recognise The Issues He Has Consistently Raised. But You Cannot Pretend Those Issues Have Disappeared Simply Because He Is Locked In Sokoto.

Justice That Only Protects The Convenient Is Not Justice. A Life Sentence Imposed On The Man Who Raised These Questions Does Not Answer Them. It Does Not Undo The Injustice Suffered By His People, Address Their Longstanding Grievances Or Provide Answers To The Concerns He Has Spent Years Bringing To Public Attention. The Strength Of a System Is Not Shown By How It Handles Those Who Stay Silent. It Is Shown By Whether It Can Face Difficult Questions And Deliver Justice Even When The Answers Are Uncomfortable.

The Questions Remain. The Detention Continues. The Demand Does Not Soften.

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Must Be Released.
