The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has begged his supporters, popularly known as Obidients, to allow him personally respond to comments made about him by others in the presidential race.
The former governor was recently attacked by the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, during an Arise TV interview.
The former vice president had said Obi and the Labour Party needed a miracle to win the 2023 presidential election because they lack political structure on the ground.
This didn’t sit well with many of Obi’s supporters who slammed Atiku on social media.
Obi, who ran alongside Atiku in the 2019 presidential election, has now cautioned his supporters against such.
He tweeted, “I most sincerely appreciate all my supporters and those of LP. I love you all. I wish to appeal to you to allow me to personally respond to any CANDIDATE that makes comments about me, while you concentrate on issues to promote our cause of moving our dear Nigeria from consumption to production, create jobs, and generally evolve a better Nigeria – PO.”
