In a candid in an interview with The Sun, a religious leader Dr Olumide Emmanuel has emphasized that he wasn't anticipating the PDP presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar to emerge as the winner of the presidential election.
Olumide argued that he was concentrating on Tinubu and Obi at the election, adding that Atiku has been contesting for many times but didn't succeed just like what the former president Muhammadu Buhari did. He highlighted that the Labour Party presidential candidate was a surprise to Nigerians as he was supported massively during the election.

However, the Cleric noted that Obi didn't gain popularity in the South but also gain supporters in both Diaspora and on social media.
He alleged that President Tinubu has no solution for Nigeria despite the claims that he performed magnificent when he was the governor of Lagos State. He suggested that neither does the candidate of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, nor that of the Labour Party (LP), Mr Peter Obi have solutions for the country.
He asked Nigerians to look up to God for a solution to the myriad of problems currently confronting the country.
He said, "I was looking at Tinubu or Obi. Atiku has been trying again and again, just like Buhari had been trying but nothing had come out of it for him. He comes during the election, and after the election, he disappears. It was the Obi people that were a surprise to everybody. It was like a movement. I was asking myself if the Obi movement had coverage throughout the whole country? It is not just being popular in the South. Also, all the people shouting, INEC does not count Instagram likes, INEC does not count Instagram likes, INEC does not count twitter comments, INEC counts only the PVC, some of them are also abroad and I know you cannot vote from abroad. All these noise makers, do they have PVC?".
