Oby Ezekwesili never stood a chance, a nice thing she stepped down from the race.

Sowore doesn't stand a chance, Moghalu doesn't stand a chance.

Brilliant guys, but lack the requisite political structures to win an election.

The truth is that Oby Ezekwesili has no electoral value, she can't even win her local government. Infact, Kingsley Moghalu, Oby, Sowore and Fela can only defeat PDP & APC in a debate not on ballot

Enough of tyranny, corruption and incompetence. PDP and APC must go. These parties are a summary of all the problems we face in Nigeria. Let us put Nigeria first.
I will be voting Prof. Kingsley Moghalu for president#ItIsTime #ToBuildANation
