You need to ask yourself, can Peter win the presidential election? Can the East afford to throw away their votes? Can we afford to be sentimental in matters that concern our people, our children, and our future? No.
Rave-of-the-moment politician, Peter Obi, has got a jab from his home region – South -East.
Many people, especially youths, are buying into his personality, philosophy and lifestyle but Former Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu, has declared that the South-East region will not vote for Obi, who is the presidential candidate of Labour Party(LP).
In a now-viral video, Ekweremadu says the fate of the people lies in the Peoples Democratic Party and not the Labour Party.
Ekweremadu argues: “I assure you that South East will vote for the People Democratic Party (PDP). I can guarantee that. No doubt Peter Obi is our son, but you need to be dynamic.

“You need to ask yourself, can Peter win the presidential election? Can the East afford to throw away their votes? Can we afford to be sentimental in matters that concern our people, our children, and our future? No”
“We do not intend to do a thing which we will regret in future. So, while we believe that Peter is ably qualified, we believe that the future of our people lies with PDP. So, we need to make that decision as the leaders. I am going to sit with our people and explain to them.”
“Okowa, of course, is one of us, so there is no difference between Okowa and Peter in terms of protecting the interest of the South. So, we will go and give the people of the South East that opportunity.”
