The presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in the 2023 election, Prince Adewole Adebayo, has said that the endorsement of Peter Obi by former President Olusegun Obasanjo shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone.

Adebayo described the endorsement as merely a public confirmation of a scheme that the retired General himself planned and executed ab initio.

On January 1, the former president released an eight-page letter where he endorsed the presidential aspiration of the Labour Party candidate and called on Nigerian youths to vote for the former Anambra State Governor.

Obasanjo said though none of the presidential candidates is a saint, Obi stands out among the lot.

Other candidates in the race include Omoyele Sowore of the African Action Congress; Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party; Bola Tinubu of the ruling All Progressives Congress and Rabiu Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria People’s Party.

The endorsement has generated a furore among various political players, with the APC presidential candidate describing the endorsement as worthless.

During a virtual interactive session with Nigerians hosted by Rudolf Okonkwo, the SDP presidential candidate said he was not surprised by Obasanjo's action because he was just being true to himself by endorsing Peter Obi.

"It is not reasonable for anyone to pretend to be surprised that he endorsed a campaign which he himself set up, which he has been sustaining and raising funds for," Prince Adebayo said.

Adebayo said there is nothing new in what Obasanjo did as he is the de facto DG of the Peter Obi campaign. The two people – the former DG (Doyin Okupe) and the one who is there now- represent him.

"In his (Obasanjo's) mind, Peter Obi is just an extension of his body similar to what he tried to do with the late President Umaru Yar’Adua."

The SDP presidential candidate further reiterated his respect for the stateman's right to support any candidate of choice. However, he pointed out that Obasanjo's actions, both in and out of government, laid the groundwork for the country's current problems.

What an elder see when sitting down , a child cannot see it even if he climbs an iroko tree

May God continue to bless and protect chief Olusegun Obasanjo for us

Kikikiki, anyone that wants attention must mention Peter Obi

So They want Obasanjo to endorse Bola Tinubu that said he doesn't believe in one Nigeria ?

Maybe it's even Tinubu that's sponsoring this Yoruba nation agitation in Yoruba land and Unknown gunmen in the east

Wailers will always wail
Urchins will alway urchinate

Every Nigerian knows the tribe that share similar DNA with pigs, their food,(they cook with broom). Their noisey lifestyle, the tribal mark torture. They are the yolobads

Obasanjo use one stone, stone all the idiots in Yoruba land.

They have been crying and peeing in their "jump up" trousers over an endorsement.

Adult babies.

Adebayo should be more concerned about his party's attempt to sell his ticket to Tinubu; instead of meddling in matters and persons that are way above his pay grade

Obi's cumin

So these urchins still dey masturbate ontop OBJ's endorsement of Peter obi despite all the rants that he is politically irrelevant ....


Well by February their eyes go clear....

.

So glad I finally collected my PVC at my ward, after a couple of futile efforts going to the LGA INEC office last week.
The sacrifice was worth it after all.

A new Nigeria is POssible.

If you want to be heard no matter how small your status or voice is, just mention Obi.

Everyone knows the retired old failure was backing the Pandora failure. Labour party is PDP lite from top to bottom.

That's okay

Peter Obi, the one that is always called out. Before election season, everyone was using him as an example of modern leadership but now due to varying interest, we all seems to have forgotten in a hurry, that the prudence we need in governance is embodied in Peter Obi. The accountability we seek in our polity is what he has been preaching for years, Peter Obi has always been canvassing on the need to trim government expenditure so as to free up cash for a sectors like education and health.

Please let's give Peter Obi a chance because he has shown quality leadership in the past , he has the requisite skills to move this nation forward, do this for your generation.

Ok shaa

Whether only Easterners can or not, it will be tested at the polls.

Gagaragaga Gazelle Babablu blu bulama urchins will send their thugs after you, this I'm very sure.

Good, Sane and forward thinking Nigerians are rooting for PETER OBI to be President.

While the Wicked and the Miserable amongst us wants EscoBAT to rule their Papa Village, NOT Nigeria!

Any sincere Nigerian who do not want our children to inherit this type of Nigeria we are living in now, will not vote for APC and PDP.
May APC and PDP never happen to Nigeria again.

So Yorubas should not support Obi but the East and North should support Tinubu?!
You urchins are one of a kind

Your Atiku that Obasanjo endorsed in 2019, what became of him?

Musu!

The kind of support the East gives Tinubu is the same support Obi will get from Yorubas.

You Obidaft pigs are senseless
