Bloomberg Poll shows Peter Obi winning Nigeria presidency

September 28, 2022 by AFRIPOL Leave a Comment

  • Peter Obi is winning with 72% among those who have decided how to vote

This is third poll in a row conducted for Nigeria 2023 general elections that have put Peter Obi in a lead. In the latest one conducted for Bloomberg News by Premise Data Corp. he scored 72% among those that have PVC cards and are ready to vote.

“Of the 92% of participants who said they’ve decided how to vote, 72% named Obi as their first choice. Of those who are still unsure, 45% said the 61-year-old is their preferred candidate.

The San Francisco-headquartered data company surveyed 3,973 Nigerians from Sept. 5-20. Respondents to the app-based poll were selected from quotas developed by age, gender and location across the country’s six geopolitical zones. Results were then weighted against the original quotas to ensure national representation. About 44% of Nigerians own smartphones, according to the Alliance for Affordable Internet.

The candidates of the two parties that have ruled Nigeria since the restoration of democracy in 1999 fared less well. Bola Tinubu of the ruling All Progressives Congress garnered 16% of decided voters and 23% of those yet to make up their minds. Atiku Abubakar of the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party tallied 9% and 17% respectively.”
