Peter Obi Is An Opportunist, Not A Revolutionary Leader – Bwala

A spokesperson for the Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign Council, Daniel Bwala, has said the Labour Party (LP) flagbearer, Peter Obi, is an opportunist and not a revolutionary leader.

In an interview with Channels Television on Thursday, Bwala said the former Governor of Anambra State cashed in on agitation by young people who feel they need a different path.

He said the LP flagbearer cannot win one Northern state in the forthcoming presidential election, saying that he would only do well in the Southern region.

Bwala added that the total number of Obi supporters will not make up the number of supporters that turned out in Katsina for the PDP presidential campaign rally.

He said: “Peter Obi is a third force. But Peter Obi is not revolutionary. Peter Obi cashed into a movement an agitation by young people who feel they need a different path.

“And then what Peter Obi did, he was a member of the PDP; he was running in the PDP. If he had gotten the ticket, he wouldn’t have gone there.

“Even after he left the PDP, he didn’t go to Labour Party. He was scouting for a political party.

“The reason why I don’t bother about Peter Obi, let me tell you today by my discipline of law. Peter Obi as we speak today is running as an independent candidate. He is not a member of the Labour Party.

“Now let’s come down. Where will Peter Obi win? He cannot win one state in the north, the entire north, because we engage in rallies, in campaigns and we listen to people.

“The same Peter Obi that they are manufacturing all the 419 polls, have you not seen his rallies? All the rallies Peter Obi has had now, all the rallies put together, are not up to our rally in Katsina.”
