Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential candidate Peter Obi says he will end his 2027 campaign if anyone can provide proof that he collected money in the United States from Nigerians in the diaspora. He made the pledge while speaking in the US.
Obi dismisses claims that his trip is aimed at raising funds for his presidential bid. He challenges supporters and critics to identify any individual in America who gave him money, stating that if such evidence is shown, he will stop campaigning for 2027. He also says he is using his own resources, paying his expenses himself, and traveling to carry out his political work.
Both outlets report the same conditional offer and Obi’s response to allegations about diaspora fundraising. They differ mainly in the phrasing and length of excerpts, with both emphasizing his stated readiness to end the campaign upon proof of collecting even a small amount.
