POLITICIANS DEPLOYING ALL FORMS OF STRATEGIES TO DE-MARKET PETER OBI – OBAZE
Former gubernatorial candidate in Anambra State, Oseloka Obaze, has stated that there is an orchestrated plan to undermine the Labour Party (LP) 2023 Presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
Obaze, who served as Secretary to the Anambra State Government under Peter Obi, stated on his social media page that those behind the plot are individuals interested in the 2027 presidential election.
The former United Nations diplomat said the reason for the attack is that Peter Obi has presented himself as the only credible candidate for the presidency and has also won the hearts of many, especially young people.
He said it has become evident that some people are afraid of Peter Obi and do not want him to participate in the 2027 election.
Obaze insisted that what will be more shocking to those demarketing Peter Obi is that the former Governor of Anambra State has no option other than to run for the election.
He said: “Some politicians with vested interests are already fighting back. They are strategically deploying all forms of trolls and subterfuge to demarket Peter Obi. Corruption is also fighting back, albeit covertly. The onslaught against Peter Obi is so well-oiled and funded; you’d think he is the only person running for the presidency in 2027.
“Obi’s delegitimization and demythologization are being orchestrated by those awestruck by fear. Two years away from the 2027 presidential election, pre-purposed and pre-positioned media goons are already traducing and pummeling Peter Obi without let or hindrance.
“Also, those hired hands pretending to be from Obi’s Igbo tribe are rendering what they want many to believe are even more persuasive, potent, and factually damaging anti-Obi sentiments. They are dredging up vexatious dregs. The assault was long anticipated by those of us aligned with Obi.
“Here’s the upshot. If Obi runs, he might not win; if he does not run, he is guaranteed not to win. There is only one factor that could change the realities in 2027; that Peter Obi is not willing to be on the ballot. And that is not even an option anymore. Nigerians own Peter Obi as much as he owns himself. He is now a national asset.
“The fate of Nigeria hangs in the balance. Most of the Nigerian masses desirous of real leadership change, regardless of their social stratification, education, religion, tribe, or political affiliation.
“The electoral mandate stolen in 2023 was not just Peter Obi’s votes and victory. It was the votes Nigerians freely cast for Obi and for the betterment of Nigeria and her posterity. The second time around, such votes will double and will be amply protected, even with blood and lives. That much is certain. That’s the present national mindset.
“They will be protected and will count. Those who think or say otherwise only unmask their naïveté or profound fears of the prospects of a Peter Obi presidency. Despite all imponderables relative to 2027, I’ll only state by way of advice, support, and affirmation; Run, Peter, Run. Let history take its rightful course.”
