LAGOS MAY 5TH (NEWSRANGERS)-The South West Coordinator of Obi-Kwankwaso, OK Movement, Dr. Adefolaseye Adebayo has claimed that about 10 million Nigerians registered with the Nigerian Democratic Congress, NDC, 24 hours after former Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi joined the party.
DAILY POST reports that Obi and former Kano State Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso on Sunday dumped the African Democratic Congress, ADC for NDC ahead of the next general elections.
The development has triggered criticism, with some claiming that Obi’s chances of becoming Nigerian President are fading away.
Reacting, Adebayo in an interview with Arise TV on Monday, countered the claim, stating that Obi’s followership cut across the six geo-political zones.
According to her, it is about Obi’s personality and capability not political party.
She said, “Mr Peter Obi has a lot of followership across Nigeria. You can’t say that Obi’s chances or the chance of the South East reduced drastically.
“24 hours after Peter Obi left ADC, 10 million Nigerians registered with NDC and that says a lot”.
