2023: Tinubu, Peter Obi Not Good Enough To Become President – Okowa

Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State has said the flagbearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, and his Labour Party (LP) counterpart, Peter Obi, are not good enough to become the next President in 2023.

Okowa stated this in Aboh community when he led Delta PDP campaign train to Ndokwa East and Ndokwa West Local Government Areas of the state on Friday.

The Vice Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) said Tinubu is a worthy candidate to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023, adding that Obi does not stand a chance to be the next President.

According to the governor, Obi supporters popularly known as Obidients are only indirectly helping APC and trying to reduce the vote of PDP in the forthcoming presidential election.

He asked PDP supporters who had left the party to return and ensure that Atiku Abubakar emerges as the next President, adding that the PDP is ready to change the so-called previous change.

He said: “We all know that the candidate of APC is not good enough to be our president. Also, we know that Labour Party is not going anywhere and we need to sweet-talk the party supporters not to waste their votes.

“Those supporters wishing to vote for Labour Party are only indirectly helping APC and trying to reduce the vote of PDP.

“So, please go and plead with Labour Party supporters to return to PDP and join hands with us to change Nigeria for the better.

“We — the PDP — are ready to change the so-called previous change. Therefore, everyone should go and get his or her PVC.”

Okowa also charged the people to embark on house-to-house, market-to-market campaign to convince the people to support PDP’s rescue mission.

He said the PDP presidential ticket would bring about a united Nigeria and a booming economy driven by the private sector.

Okowa added that the PDP would restructure the country and would make money available for states and local governments to embark on projects.
