Only the Northern Elites will not vote for Obi because they have stolen money and are afraid – Labour Party Vice Chair, Reuben

The Labour Party Vice Chairman (South-South) Felix Reuben has said only the elites from Northern Nigeria are afraid of the emergence of the party’s Presidential candidate, Peter Obi.

He said this reacting to recent comments credited to the presidential candidate of the New Nigerian Peoples Party, NNPP, Rabiu Kwankwaso who said that the northern electorates will not give their vote to a candidate from the East during the election next year.

In his reaction, Reuben said; The only people that will not vote for Peter Obi in the North are the elites, people that are afraid, that have stolen money and are protecting their wealth.

“I believe before the election, the whole north will be for Peter Obi, the voting masses will be for Peter Obi. We are picking a vice presidential candidate from the North that is going to do the job of talking to northerners and bring them in.”
