According to the Coalition of United Political Parties (CUPP), the 2027 election outcome would be determined by Nigerians.
The former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, received more votes in the 2023 election, according to allegations from Chief Peter Ameh, the National Secretary of the CUPP, despite the Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) purportedly faulty findings.
Nigerian politicians’ worldview, which is motivated by personal interests, was denounced by Chief Ameh in a statement released on Friday.
Peter Obi, speaking on behalf of the Labour Party, accomplished outstanding achievement in less than six months of campaigning, even though the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared faulty results.
In seven states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Obi received more than 50% of the vote, and in sixteen states, more than 25%, without the support of governors or the aid of electoral manipulation apparatus. He claimed that his dominance in important cities like the FCT, Rivers, and Lagos demonstrated the strength of a coalition of people who are all driven by the same goal of change.

The previous Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC) National Chairman emphasized that the most recent 2023 election demonstrated the ability of the people to bring about political change.
The desire of the people can overthrow the established political class, as this alliance of common Nigerians—youth, laborers, traders, and professionals—showed. The 2023 elections revealed the weaknesses of inept and heartless politicians who, while eager to seize power, are incapable of governing for the benefit of the populace.
These politicians, who are frequently protected by the so-called “federal might,” have clung to power by defection and manipulation. Elected officials and governors routinely switch parties, undermining the confidence of their voters while disguising themselves as political strategists.
“The people are more determined than ever to end this cycle of underperformance and opportunism, but this lack of discipline and accountability has eroded public confidence in governance,” he continued.
