Nigeria 2023 Presidential Election: Face to Face Polls

On January 27, 2023, Nextier conducted a nationwide face-to-face poll of eligible voters in rural and urban communities in Nigeria’s 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory.  The polls show Labour Party leading the voters’ preference at 37 percent of the survey respondents.  The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) secured 27 percent of the survey responses, while the All Progressives Congress secured 24 percent, with the New Nigeria Peoples Party at 6 percent.  Although Labour Party secured the highest voter preference, it is unlikely to secure an outright first-round victory.  None of the presidential candidates met both criteria for victory in the first round: a majority of votes cast and 25 percent in two-thirds of the states.
