Ifoh recounted how Obi resisted pressure both at home and from abroad to lead a mass protest against the February 25 election when the results were announced.

According to him, the former Anambra helmsman insisted that taking back Nigeria through him will come through due and peaceful process and not by violence.

The statement reads: “On March 1, 2023, when the INEC (Independent National Electoral Commission) announced the election result by 4am, Obi supporters across the country and in the diaspora mounted pressure on him to authorise a mass protest but he declined, insisting instead that taking back Nigeria through him will come through due and peaceful process and not via violence.”JAMB Portal
