The Obidient Movement’s National Coordinator, Yunusa Tanko, on Wednesday alleged that President Bola Tinubu is creating problems in any political party former Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi is interested in.
In an interview on AIT Focus Nigeria, Tanko said Tinubu’s
administration is working on “Operation do not allow Peter Obi have a ticket.”
He, however, expressed optimism that Obi would clinch the
ticket of any political party he runs under.
Tanko said: “This government is very good in creating
problems in every political party that Peter Obi’s name has come up. We have
already accused this particular government of having a third hand in every
political party in order to cause chaos within the system.
“Anywhere the name Peter Obi rings a bell, that is where
they are interested in making sure that he doesn’t win. So, we must protect
those who are interested in Peter Obi to ensure he wins because its “Operation
do not allow Peter Obi have a ticket.”
“But I can assure them that we will have the ticket. The
idea is that PDP is interested, ADC is interested in him, Labour Party is still
interested in him.
“Our target is that we keep our As together and whenever the
time comes we will unleash so that they will not have the idea of what is
coming in.
“One thing you must know is that the most popular
presidential candidate in Nigeria and indeed for Nigerian interest across the
world is Peter Obi, there is no doubt about it.
“So we don’t want to repeat the same mistake in the area of
MKO Abiola where a most popular candidate was denied the opportunity of the
president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, that will draw us back and we
will have to come back and start explaining how we lost the election after the
man is long dead.
“This time around we have a presidential candidate that is
alive, popular, requested, and needed by the Nigerian youths who have not been
so much into the politics before but now are interested and give them that
opportunity.”
