2023: Why Peter Obi Can’t Spring Any Surprise – Dino Melaye

Ahead of the 2023 general elections, a Chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Senator, Dino Melaye, has described the presidential candidate of the party Atiku Abubakar as the most experienced of all the candidates and has what it takes to bring Nigeria out of its present woes.

He also countered those of the belief that the standard bearer of the Labour Party (LP), Mr. Peter Obi, will spring a surprise in the presidential election, saying Obi supporters were only on social media.

Speaking during the Public declaration for Atiku and induction ceremony by the Diamond Ladies in Politics at the weekend in Abuja, Melaye argued that there is no basis of comparing Atiku with the other presidential candidates.

He maintained that Atiku and the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate Asiwaju Bola Tinubu were frontrunners for the top job of the presidency, adding that the notion held in certain quarters that the presidential candidate of the Labour party would spring surprises at the presidential poll is not true.

He said: “I am happy that everybody here is singing one song and that is Atiku for President. Many are already voting at the social media but INEC have no voting centre at the social media.

“Atiku supporters are real, they are original. You can see them and they have PVCs. We have two very important people contesting this election. Atiku Abubakar and Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the APC.

“At 75 what is new that Atiku would be looking for other than to set the pedestal for the upcoming generation to have a life they can call their own. So this competent Nigerian that is highly mobile and administratively sagacious is coming to change the narrative.

“Obi is a fantastic Nigerian but he was not known nationally until Atiku identified him. Atiku is a talent hunter. Everyone who was a reformer in this country between 1999 to date was a discovery of Atiku.”

In her submission, Convener of the Diamond Ladies in politics, Princess Maimunat Wada, promised to mobilise over two million votes for Atiku in the presidential poll.

She contended that Atiku has the wherewithal to address the challenges bedeviling the country.

She said: “With Atiku Abubakar on the saddle of leadership of the country, there would be inclusiveness of Nigerians irrespective of their tribal and religious affiliations. Atiku choice of his running mate, His Excellency Dr Ifeanyi Okowa, his array of business partners, investments spread across the country and even the ethnic backgrounds of his spouses are clear testimony that he would be a true Nigerian president.

” As of today, His Excellency Atiku Abubakar remains the only candidate that has released a clear roadmap to economic recovery of the country. This simply means he is the most prepared presidential candidate in the country.”
