He is a senator of the 8th and 9th republic of the National Assembly in Nigeria respectively. He was sacked shorty after being announced senator elect during the 2019 general elections by a Federal High Court in Abuja as Senator-elect on allegations that he was not validly elected by his political party. The Appeal Court in Abuja however upturned the decision on 30 May 2019. The lead judge held that the Federal High Court that nullified his election had no jurisdiction over the case.

On 3 April 2019 a Federal High Court in Abuja sacked Peter Nwaoboshi as Senator-elect of representing Delta North senatorial district on grounds that he was not validly nominated in the party primaries held by the People's Democratic Party in Delta State. He was also ordered by Justice Ahmed Mohammed parading himself as senator-elect. According to the summons filed against him by his opponent in the party primaries Prince Nwoko stated that the People's Democractic party had unlawfully announced him the winner after he was defeated in the primaries, it was also alleged that Nwoboshi hired thugs to cause a mass scare and stampede when he learnt of his brewing defeat.

On 4 April 2019 Peter Nwaoboshi appealed to the judgement sacking him as senator-elect. On 17 April 2019 a Federal High Court in Abuja denied Nwaoboshi's appeal to issue a restraining order to Independent National Electorate Commission stating that it was out of its jurisdiction as an Appeal court had already ruled on the case, consequently the Justice Mahmud Mohammed ordered that Independent National Electorate Commission should withdraw the certificate of return issued to Nwaoboshi and reissue a new certificate to Prince Ned Nwoko.

On 11 May 2019 the Independent National Electoral Commission withdrew the certificate of return issued to Nwaoboshi.

The witness for EFCC stated that the accuser Nwaoboshi was invited for an interview and statements were voluntarily written by Nwaoboshi. The witness for the EFCC also stated that investigations revealed that Nwaoboshi was the owner of Golden Touch Constructions used in the purchase of the warehouse and 12 story building.
