According to Prof. Abdulrahman, the LP candidate scored 466,272 votes, while the PDP candidate scored 243,808 votes and the APC candidate scored 307,195 votes. The LP candidate's victory is indicative of the widespread support he garnered from Plateau State's electorate, which was evident in the massive voter turnout recorded during the election.
Observers noted that the Plateau State presidential election was largely peaceful, and voters conducted themselves in an orderly manner. The election was conducted in compliance with electoral laws and guidelines, and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) ensured that the process was transparent and credible.
Obi's victory in Plateau State is significant as it demonstrates the Labour Party's growing popularity in the state, and across Nigeria. The LP has been campaigning on a platform of socio-economic development, job creation, and poverty reduction, which has resonated with many Nigerians who are eager for change. Obi's success in the presidential election is expected to inspire other candidates and parties to work harder to win the support of voters in future elections.
