Former presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, has said he has never been associated with thuggery, rigging or any form of electoral malpractice.
In a statement on his X page on Tuesday, Obi tasked Nigerians to prove his record, insisting that none of his political contests had been marred by violence or manipulation.
“Throughout my political journey, I have never been involved in thuggery, the snatching of ballot boxes, or any form of electoral malpractice,” Obi wrote.
“I challenge anyone: conduct your investigations. You will find no stains of rigging or violence associated with my name.”
He stated that his politics has always been tailored by civility and fairness, pointing out that those who contested against him were never denied their rights or falsely accused.
“Ask those who have contested against me —none were ever denied their rights, framed, or falsely accused,” Obi said.
“None was asked to place their advert materials or break the bank to do so. I believe in fair competition, not manufactured victories.”
