4. Peter Obi’s rally suggests decline of APC, says Bwala
A spokesperson for the Atiku Abubakar presidential campaign, Daniel Bwala, says the rally by supporters of Peter Obi, Presidential Candidate of the Labour Party, in Kaduna shows the decline of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the state.
He said this in a series of tweets on Saturday.
Obi’s supporters, earlier in the day, conducted a ‘one million march’ in various states to mark Independence Day.
Reacting, Bwala said Atiku made Obi popular and “the crowd at Pitobi @PeterObi rally in Kaduna despite @elrufai…suggest the decline of APC in that state. This is even labour, not PDP, Obi not Atiku. The EA amendment has de-mystified governors. If the 2015 APC victory does not humble APC, the 2023 APC defeat would humiliate them.
