The presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Obi, has expressed confidence that he will win the 2027 presidential election.
Obi made the statement during an interview with Copdem Media, where he said he sees himself as a tool representing the interests of Nigerians.
The former Anambra State governor said the 2027 election is a contest between Nigerians and the current administration, adding that many citizens have suffered enough.
He also pledged to restore the rule of law if elected president.
According to Obi, “I will not lose because the election is now between the people and the Nigerian government. I believe that people have suffered enough.
“This election is not about me telling the people what to do because it’s the people who would either win or lose against the government. So, whatever they decide to do, I don’t know because I’m not controlling them. Even if they have to go to court, it is the people suing the government. So, this election is between the people and the government.
“I’m only being used as a tool to stand for the people. If I win, one thing I must bring back is to ensure the rule of law; we must have law and order.”
