Former Governor of Anambra and presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 general election, Mr Gregory Peter Obi, has made a rejoinder to a recent comment made against him by Godswill Akpabio, the Nigerian Senate President.
In a recent statement issued by Akpabio, he claimed that Peter Obi did not win the presidential election in Lagos and Ebonyi States, adding that the election was rigged in those places. In his words:
“INEC must explain to us how you [Tinubu] would lose the election in Lagos during the presidential election. And Lagos was your base. In fact, one of the other explanations INEC will make to you is how you’ll win all the federal houses in Ebonyi States and we won the three Senate seats in Ebonyi State and they said you didn’t get 25 percent..”
Appearing on Parallel Fact, Peter Obi was asked to react to the comments made by the Senate president about his election and he responded, saying he does not deal with uncommon people.
The former governor of Anambra state stressed that Akpabio is an uncommon person, everything about him is uncommon and therefore, doesn’t like dealing with with uncommon people. He said:
“I deal with common people…when uncommon people talk, common people keep quiet.
“I won the election not just in Lagos and Ebonyi, I won the elections in Nigeria. If not for Nigeria being an uncommon place we all know what happened,” Obi added.
