Joseph Faduri Claims Labour Party Won 2023 Election

Joseph Faduri, a presidential aspirant of the Action Alliance (AA), stated that the Labour Party (LP) won the 2023 presidential election during an appearance on Arise Television’s Morning Show. He recalled informing Peter Obi, the then LP presidential candidate, that he would win after handing over the party’s flag to him.

Official results from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) indicated that Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) won with 37 percent of the votes, followed by Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) with 29 percent, and Obi with 25 percent. Faduri also criticized INEC Chairman Joash Amupitan for not recognizing a Court of Appeal ruling that acknowledged Kenneth Udeze as the authentic leader of the AA, arguing that Amupitan should adhere to the higher court's decision rather than an earlier High Court ruling.
