The chairman, Dialogue Group, Mahdi Shehu has said former President Olusegun Obasanjo is promoting the flagbearer of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, in the North ahead of the 2023 elections because of his disdain for the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu.
Naija News reports that Shehu made this known during an interview with Arise TV monitored by this publication, where he disclosed that Obasanjo has been visiting prominent personalities in the North to sell Peter Obi.
Speaking further about Obasanjo’s dislike for the APC national leader, Shehu added that the disdain came due to the extra courage, gut, audacity Tinubu had to take Obasanjo to court over the creation of extra local governments in Lagos during his tenure.

Shehu statement comes barely a week after the former President Olusegun Obasanjo expressed regret at choosing Atiku Abubakar as running mate and eventual Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria between 1999 and 2007.

Obasanjo even as a yoruba man knows what is best for the Nation right now

Be decieving yourself .. Obasanjo and Tinubu are playing you guys with fake fight up and down

Apart from ego clash because Tinubu is slowly replacing Obasanjo as the number one Yoruba top Politician... Nothing personal between them

At chief Razak Okoya's birthday, Tinubu and Obasanjo sat with each other gisting and laughing for hours

When Obasanjo disgrace them again as Kwankwaso did , they would start crying about


.

As it's now Obasanjo can't make anyone president

Tinubu expecting massive votes from the north.

Not knowing that the north allowed him to

Be the APC flag bearer while secretly rooting for PDP .

This up coming general election is between

Atiku vs peter obi

From running together to an opponent.

Are you not the same people that said Jibril Elsudan or Buhari has anoiting candidate and also that Tinubu would be defeated by consensus candidate

Wos my guy, if you are an Ibo man better stick to buying and selling and leave Politics for the gamers

Peter Obi can't even win 3 states out of the 36 States of the federation and in Anambra he can't get 50,000 votes


.

Obasanjo is a featherweight politician. Means nothing.

Not only obansajo all pdp and APC members are promoting obi indirectly without knowing

IgbalodeRaymond:
Shut up
stop talking nonsense
vote Peter Obi for a better tomorrow
pio pio pio

Is that how you can campaign and canvass vote for your preferred candidate, someone expressed his opinion and you asked him to shut up and vote peter Obi for better tomorrow just like that . This online sometimes makes people confuse you can never say maybe you are exchanging messages with a lunatic

Moh247:


But where was your father insulted

You are here using your alternative moniker to accuse me to Seun and Mynd44

Do u always decide to tell yourself lies then smile?

Shehu is a pained atiku supporter

I think OBJ if he's doing that not targeted on Tinubu but Atiku whom he vow not to be president of Nigeria as far as he's alive. Promoting Obi in d North instead of his Southern region(SW especially) will help in reducing Atiku'd supposed block votes in d North thereby denying him landslide victory in d north.

May we now say that Obasanjo is highly OBIdient?

Obasanjo even as a oyo man understands what is best for the Nation right now

Obj knows that Peter obi is the best for Nigeria
