Obi No Match For Atiku; Will Lose Anambra- PDP Boasts
Leading opposition party, the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) has declared that presidential candidate of Labour Party (LP) Mr Peter Obi, is not a match to its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
Uloka Chibuike, PDP Presidential Campaign Committee spokesman in Anambra State, declared this in a statement in in Awka, the state capital on Thursday.
Oluka said Anambra people prefer Atiku to Obi despite the latter being a former governor of the state, adding that the low turnout of people in Obi campaigns in the north will be a child play in Anambra state and south East.
“The PDP is expected to gain over 50,000 members back in the coming weeks in the state. These were people who left the PDP due to deception and others who have seen the inevitability of Atiku Abubakar’s victory in 2023.” Uloka said.
Uloka attributed the Labour Party’s cold reception across Nigeria was a sign of rejection and a reminder that the LP is not fit for big political league.
He said the so-called Obidients place too much relevance and importance on social media, of which does not constitute 12 per cent of the electorates.
“They are gradually losing steam and energy; the chips are down, and the big league players are out to the arena; the kindergarten players have no choice but to hibernate; this is exactly what the Labour Party and Obidients are witnessing”, the statement added.
