A photo showing the moment the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) gubernatorial candidate, Peter Mbah, fell on his knees to beg youths in Enugu State ahead of the gubernatorial elections has surfaced on social media. 

This is coming after supporters of the Labour Party (LP), popularly known as ‘Obidients’, had disgraced Mbah when he visited Ugwu Di Nso Annual Youth Lenten Retreat to solicit support ahead of the state gubernatorial election on Saturday 11, March.

However, the youths refused to listen to him nor allow him to address the church as they repeatedly chanted “Obi! Obi!! Obi!!!.”

The PDP candidate also shared drinks during the visit but the youths threw away the drinks, shouting they do not need them.

In the photo that surfaced, the PDP candidate could be seen on his knees, begging the youths to forgive him and vote for his party at the forth-coming governorship elections.

 

Why Atiku, Peter Obi Rejected Election Outcome

Former Governor of Ogun State, Olusegun Osoba has said the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, and his counterpart in the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, rejected the 2023 presidential election results in order to create chaos in Nigeria.

In an interview Journalist Hangout, a programme on Television Continental (TVC) on Friday, Osoba expressed disappointment at Atiku and Obi for claiming victory in the just-concluded presidential election.

He said the candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, clearly won the presidential poll, adding that the election is one of the most peaceful ever conducted in the country.

He added that Nigerians are wiser and would not allow themselves to be instigated or provoked into turning the country on fire.
