The All Progressives Congress (APC) has criticised Peter Obi, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, labelling him as a “serial complainer” who refuses to accept unfavourable election outcomes.

This remark was made by APC’s National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, in response to Obi’s criticism of the Edo State governorship election result, which declared Monday Okpebholo of the APC as the winner ahead of his closest challengers—Asue Ighodalo of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Olumide Akpata of the Labour Party (LP).

Speaking during an interview with Arise TV on Wednesday, Morka dismissed Obi’s opinions on the election, saying, “Peter Obi is a serial complainer who will not accept the result of any election that is not in his favour or candidates that he supports.

“Since the 2023 election, Obi has been in consistent denial of that election. He has a new pet project which is to deny the Edo State election.

“Whatever he thinks of the Edo election is completely irrelevant.

“I think Akpata and Ighodalo have a legitimate interest in that election and if they are not satisfied, they should do what they must do which is to head to court and prove the allegations that they are handling around now. They are spreading unsubstantiated allegations.

“I have not listened to any of them finishing any evidence of the high-sounding allegations that they make. When you get to court, it’s not about the headlines; you must break it down to realistic evidence to support your argument of winning the elections.”

Morka also suggested that other dissatisfied candidates, like Akpata and Ighodalo, should pursue their claims in court, rather than making unsubstantiated allegations.

Obi had earlier criticised the Edo election process, calling it a “blatant example of state capture” and warned that such flawed practices could undermine Nigeria’s democracy.
