Obidient Movement: Senator And Social Media User Go Head-to-head

Former Governor of Enugu State and senator representing Enugu East senatorial district, Chimaroke Nnamani, got into an altercation with a social media user over the Obidient movement.

Naija News reports that the senator has increased his engagement on social media by engaging in tweet chats with youths.

The senator who is seeking re-election into the National Assembly, had earlier stated that he would no longer block Twitter users who insulted him after being called out by some users.

On Saturday, the politician had shared his thoughts on the Obidient movement.

He wrote: “Still on that Obidient matter, there is no obedient party, the name is Labour Party, a political party with candidates in all offices including governorship. Our party is different and that is the Peoples Democratic Party. If we blur the distinction and foolishly vote Obidient that is Labour Party for President for the minority elites, it is easy to reverse two weeks later.”

He had also tweeted “We are Ebeano, our political party is not Labour Party, We are the PDP and our symbol is umbrella.”

Responding to Nnamani, a Twitter user by the name @McCa_Xn, wrote, Ewu” meaning a goat in Igbo language.

However, the senator replied the user with, “Your father and mother Ewu.”
