Any keen follower of the build-up to the 2023 general elections should be familiar with the name Peter Obi, one of the contenders for the highest office in the land. Peter Obi is reputed for his large followership, especially on social media. If you conduct any poll on any of the social media platforms, Peter Obi will most likely win. On the ground, in many parts of the country (SW, NC, NE, NW, SS), he would most likely come last. His party, for example, scored only 195 votes in the recent Ekiti gubernatorial election.

The purpose of this short write-up is to dissect Obi's followership (combined - both on social media and on the ground) and show the categories of people making up his support base. Basically, I have seen 3 categories of people.

Category 1:
These are ethnic supporters of Peter Obi who would rather die than support any candidate from a tribe other than theirs. They see the election in their mind as a fight for ethnic supremacy of the Igbo race but would come out to say their support for Obi is because the man is a saint and has a magic wand to turn things around in Nigeria. These guys have never supported and won't support anything coming from their SW neighbors - this has been demonstrated since democracy commenced again in 1999. They supported OBJ against the candidate of the SW, Olu Falae. They supported Jonathan and then Atiku, all against the SW's choice of Buhari/Osinbajo. This group represents 90% of Obi supporters - they are on all social media platforms including Nairaland.

Category 2:
The second category is made up of religious bigots who see nothing good in any religion that is not Christianity. To them, they should not be governed by practitioners of any other religion - it is a threat to their religion and a threat to their existence. Therefore, they will not vote for a muslim presidential candidate talkless of a muslim/muslim ticket which the APC may likely field. They have members in pockets here and there across the country - SW, NC, NW, and part of NE. They make up about 5% of Obi's supporters. Note these are not the ethnic supporters even though the ethnic supporters are also majorly christians.

Category 3:
This group has its membership drawn from the supporters of the current VP who just lost at the APC convention to his political benefactor, Tinubu. They constitute about 5% of Obi's supporters and mostly from SW. When you see a south westerner supporting Obi, he/she belongs to either category 2 or 3.

Massive Support for PETER OBI is because of his.
HONESTY,
INTEGRITY,
GOOD TRACK RECORDS,
EXCELLENT LEADERSHIP SKILLS/MANAGEMENT,
HEALTHY MIND AND BODY,
A VISIONARY LEADER,
VERY VIBRANT AND WELL EDUCATED,
GOD FEARING MAN AND HAS A GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH THE PEOPLE.
LIKE FOR PETER OBI
SHARE FOR TINUBU.

Statistical imaginations from the dream of the OP

Urchin post always lacking substance

Op try and sleep and stop having sleeplessness. If you can stay awake at 10:55pm to write something, it should be a breaking news and not because you think you have an opinion about Peter Obi. The man is sleeping at the moment, I think you should too unless you see him whenever you shut your eyes, then I can understand your sleeplessness.

Anything other than that is mental break down

When delegates didn’t vote their fellow Igbo,eh ibo hate their fellow ibo,okorocha couldn’t get one single ibo vote

Now we want Peter obi,eh ibo people are too tribalistic,they are too clannish

When are we going to drink water drop cup for una,everything we do them must talk

No 2-is Olusegun obasanjo not Yoruba enough for you people
Tinubu urchins are really loosing it as the day goes

all these useless analysis because they choose to support younger Peter Obi over your old currupt money bag. Alias Lagos landlord. Oya come and analyse why they should support Lagos landlord

Three kind of people supporting Tinubu

1. Frustrated people who Nigeria have happened to, and they can't wait for others to experience what they have experienced.

2. The people buhari called "Lazy Youth" Buhari went further to say, that would sit in one corner waiting for you to hand money over to them (awon owo mi da). try use your car to beat traffic in Lagos state by entering any street, you will see them come out to block the road with tyre asking for money. These people are in same category with Civil servants who are resistant to change, they have never developed their mind or operations of working since they started working.

3. Tribal and religious bigot...the "awon awa lo'kan" peeps who can't not reason for themselves and don't have independent mind. most of them are mostly illitrates who vibe to the tune of "baba sope". They voted for a nepa Bill holder in 2015 and 2019, now They are drumming support for someone whose certificate was kidnapped by Unknown soldier. they are same category with the head slammers who voted buhari simply because he goes to mosque on Friday with them.

We are yet to see just 1 single Obi's supporters who can exchange 4 conversations without throwing tantrum or derailing from the topic

I have been asking Obi's supporters to just present 1 person, but none

It requires an intellectual capacity to do so.

We will shame them all.

Tinubu's hobby is humiliating idiots. He did that in 2007 when Obasanjo planned a 3rd term coup. He did it again in 2015 and humiliated Goatluck. In 2019, he humiliated Atikulation and his gang. In 2023, Tinubu will humiliate the Obituary gang. A 3rd Class Philosophy graduate of unrated local UNN will never be on the same lever in a Chicago State University Accounting graduate and prize winner.

How?
Thank God he was governor of Anambra for good 8 years. Can you show us what Anambra looked like before he took over and the transformed Anambra he left after 8 years? How did the fortune of Anambra change with the 8 years reign of Obi?

Urchin register always sans narcotic

Some are actually supporting Pitobi ignorantly because of the lies, social media hype and propaganda, himself and his people subjected him to.

This is why all his lies must be busted.

Obi Governance was a failed one when he was Governor.
He has NOTHING, I repeat nothing to his name as legacy.

Any so called OBIdient you meet, just ask them why are you SUPPORTING Pitobi and see how they become foolishhh.

Ask them here and see them ranting and become insulting

IPOB terrorists, UGM terrorists and social media bandits are the 3 groups supporting Peter Obi

You are not too correct.

Some of us are from the group that is tired of being ruled and govern by nepotic and clueless leaders. We are from the group that want change and change and change in the way we are have been governed. We are from the group that want someone who is young and vibrant.

We are not interest in the conversation with someone who has a tribal track record such as you.

Even before Obi came on board, you’ve always had issues with the south East. So helnues, no one will engage you. Be rest assured, the only mention you’ll be getting is more insults. Know this and know peace.

No one takes you serious at all, trust me.

Of course, any one not supporting the miscreants Igbos and their militia wing ESN/UGM are automatically enemies of SE
