The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has dismissed insinuations in some quarters that the growing popularity of the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi is a threat to his ambition. Speaking Friday in a television programme on ARISE TV, Atiku clarified that social media presence and acceptability won’t win him (Obi) election.
He noted that despite the social media sensation and acceptability of Obi’s candidacy, the reality remains that the LP does not have people in government nor the National Assembly.
“The Labour Party does not have a government in any state or anyone in the National Assembly. Peter Obi is not a threat. They said they have 1 million votes in Osun on social media. Meanwhile, 90 percent voters are not voting through social media,” Atiku said.
