Cabals Advising Peter Obi To Withdraw From Presidential Race, Claims Mr P
Musician and member of the P-Square duo, Mr P, has claimed that certain cabals are advising Labour Party candidate Peter Obi to withdraw from the 2023 presidential race.
In a recent tweet thread, mr P questioned why these individuals were not giving similar advice to other presidential candidates and suggested that they may be aware of Obi’s potential as a formidable force in the upcoming election.
The singer also pointed out that Obi represents the frustrations of many Nigerians, particularly the youth, who have vowed to make their voices heard at the ballot box.
Mr P emphasized that this election is not just about Obi, but about all Nigerians who are frustrated with corrupt politicians and want change.
He encouraged all frustrated Nigerians to make their voices heard by voting in the February 2023 election.
He tweeted: “The Power behind @PeterObi is the pains of millions of Nigerians who deserve a better life but were failed by the corrupt politicians!
“This is no longer about @PeterObi. This is about the millions of Frustrated Nigerians/Youths who want to take their anger to the BALLOT BOX.
“The cabals and beneficiaries of the corrupt state of Nigeria do not want to see it change.
“It does not matter whether they’re Igbo, Yoruba or Hausa, when it comes to ensuring power remains with them, they unite against Nigerians! Now that the Youths are United, they are afraid.
“Why are they not advising Kwankwaso, Sowore, or any other politician to withdraw from the race? Why @PeterObi?
“They know he is a threat. Dear frustrated Nigerians, take your anger to the BALLOT BOX come February 2023.”
