Ahead of the 2023 presidential election, the Labour Party presidential candidate has had his chances of winning the north yet again scoffed at by former Aviation minister, Femi Fani-Kayode.
Fani-Kayode who doubles as Director of Special Projects and New media of the Tinubu/Shettima presidential campaign Council, described Labour Party’s Peter Obi as a non-starter who would get only 2 per cent of the votes in northern Nigeria and lose shamefully in the 2023 presidential election.
He said this in an interview on the AIT Democracy programme.
According to Fani-Kayode, the only support Obi enjoys is domiciled on social media with half of them nowhere to be found in the election proper.
He said, ” Peter Obi can win parts of Southeast and Southsouth but where will he get 25 per cent of the votes in the North? I can tell you Obi will get 2 per cent or nothing in the core north
“These are angry people who crawl out from under the rocks, go on social media and vent their anger. That is what social media is for. I don’t read comments whether for good or bad. These people have the right to vent their anger but I can tell u half of them don’t make the population of voters with PVC.”
