(AFRICAN EXAMINER) – Nigerians on social media are not taking things easy with popular lawyer and businessman, Prince Ned Nwoko, after he stated that the Labour Party flag bearer, Peter Obi will never win the 2023 presidential election.

African Examiner writes that Nwoko, who is an aspirant of the People’s Democratic Party and married to the Nollywood actress, Regina Daniels, made this known during a recent interview with BBC.

Nwoko stated that although, Peter Obi is a good man and an economic strategist who has the capacity to play a significant role in the government but can’t win the presidential election come 2023 in the Labour party because the party does not have the necessary structure to win the election in the country.

The businessman further disclosed that Peter Obi shouldn’t have left the PDP and he stated that Peter Obi will do well if any ministry relating to the economy is handed to him.

He also stated that the labour party does not have what it takes to handle the issues of the country and he urged all Nigerians not to allow tribe or religion to influence their choice of candidates.
