2023: How Tinubu Is Using Peter Obi Against Atiku – Omokri

Mohammed O. Taoheed reports,

Reno Omokri, a former presidential aide, has alleged how Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential flag-bearer, is indirectly taking advantage of Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi’s bid to win the forthcoming 2023 general elections.

Omokri, a strong supporter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, made this known today via his Twitter handle.

He claimed that Tinubu, having understood that Obi is not a threat to his ambition is promoting the ‘Obidients’ movement using proxies to deplete the Atiku’s chances.

In his words, the only votes Obi may get in the 2023 polls are votes that would have gone to the PDP.

According to him: “The biggest beneficiary of Peter Obi’s Presidential race is Tinubu, not Obidients. Peter won’t affect APC’s votes. The votes he will likely get are votes that would have gone to PDP, including SE, some non Yoruba Lagos votes, and a few votes in peripheral states.

“Tinubu is a master tactician. He knows Peter Obi cannot win. He knows that very little of Peter’s votes, if any at all, will come from him. He is aware that Peter is eating into the PDP’s votes. So, he will promote Obi’s candidacy through proxies to deplete the PDP.”
