A reaction has been made to comments by Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress. He had claimed to have won an election, but later stated there was no evidence to support this. Temitope Ajayi, a senior aide to President Bola Tinubu, responded to Obi's remarks.

Records show Obi came third in the election. Despite this, he initially insisted he was the winner.

Further details on the exchange between Ajayi and Obi are available from the original report.
