Obi expressed his support for Labour’s progressive policies and their dedication to tackling the nation’s pressing issues.
His endorsement, shared on his verified Twitter handle, @PeterObi on Tuesday, July 2, is expected to significantly bolster Labour’s campaign just days before the July 4 poll.
Voting in the UK entails electing members of Parliament for 650 constituencies via the first-past-the-post system, as reported by The Nigerian Tribune.
A candidate must secure more votes than any other contender to win a seat in the House of Commons.
For a party to form a government, it typically needs to win at least 326 seats out of 650, thereby securing a majority in the House of Commons.
On the heels of this development, Nigerians have taken to social media to express their views on Peter Obi’s call.
