One Presidential candidate in particular that has been garnering quite a bit of attention is Peter Obi, who has garnered significant support from various groups throughout the country. He has been the talk of the town for months now with regards to the 2023 Nigeria presidency. His impressive political career, accomplishments and educational qualifications have been gaining him a lot of credit.
As governor of Anambra state, Obi demonstrated impressive leadership skills and business acumen, traits that have made him very attractive to voters. In addition, his extensive experience and expertise in driving meaningful reforms and engineering unprecedented growth in the national economy make him an especially qualified candidate.
Another contender is Bola Ahmed Adekunle Tinubu, a well-known politician and business leader from Lagos state. Some believe that Tinubu’s record of being very influential will give him the edge in this hotly contested election.

Yet another possible contender is Atiku Abubakar, who served as vice president under former President Olusegun Obasanjo in 1999-2003 and has continued to maintain close ties within the ruling party ever since. Though he may not be as captivating to everyday Nigerians as Peter Obi, Atiku remains a viable contender in this race given his previous experience in office and longstanding connections to influential individuals across different sectors.
In truth, it is anyone’s game at this point – all three of these candidates hold considerable backing within their respective parties and networks. Now that the election is getting closer, only time will tell who ultimately wins the 2023 Nigeria presidency!
