According to a recent survey by the public advocacy group We2Geda Foundation, Peter Obi, the candidate for president of the Labour Party (LP), is in the lead with 51% of the vote.
The results of the poll were dated September 17, 2022, and they were signed by Muna Obioha, a member of the BoT, and Ibrahim Abdulkareem, the chairman of We2Geda’s Board of Trustees.
According to the group, 51 percent of respondents stated they would support Obi as their preferred candidate, 25 percent would support Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and 19 percent would support Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
According to the group, “further analysis also suggests that Peter Obi remained a constant favourite in the four major geopolitical zones, including North-Central, South-South, South-West, and South-East, while Alhaji Atiku Abubakar was the poll leader in the NorthEast and NorthWest zones.”

According to We2Geda, there were 15,438 registered voters in 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, with the majority of respondents in a random survey being Nigerians between the ages of 26 and 50.
A pro-democracy organisation, Anap Foundation, released the results of its survey ahead of the 2023 presidential election, describing it as a three-horse fight between Obi, Atiku, and Tinubu. The fresh poll was issued roughly two weeks after that.
Obi is in the lead with 21% of the vote, according to the Anap survey results.
