The governorship candidate of the Labour Party in Abia , Alex Otti has come under heavy fire from his followers on twitter after he made a post which painted a picture that the rally held for Peter Obi in the state was about his aspiration too.
Yesterday, thousands of Peter Obi supporters came out for a 1-million-man aimed at rallying support for Peter Obi.
Otti took to his verified Twitter handle to applaud the citizens for the rally.
“To the Obidiently Ottified in Abia State, your voices were heard today, loud and clear. This is an affirmation that the time has come to redeem the nation and upend the status quo. It is no longer business as usual.
“Change is here,” he tweeted.
His post didn’t seat well with many of his followers that jumped into the post to remind the former banker that the post wasn’t about him.
Below are some of the reactions:
@OUkomah: Did they march for you or Peter Obi?
@ChinonsoNduka: They marched for Peter Obi and not Otti, the march is not a Labour Party March rather Obidients March. Dr Alex should start selling himself to Abians the way Obi is selling himself to Nigerians.
@Abiawakeup: Don’t sit one place to ride on Obi’s movement, start ur consultations now, bring the youths frm d 17 local government together. You’re in for a battle against Abia grandmasters and the Youths support is your only way to victory. If u like do anyhow when you win body go tell you.
@JoChisom: But the march was only for Peter Obi not you.
@Chidiebe2: You were the reason why people could not turn out very well please distance yourself from obedient movement.
@state_abia: U are already a failed Politician, so desperate. Your plans was to highjack the peaceful Obidient movement, but your plans failed.
@NDailytv: Dr chioma separate Paul from Barnabas, you can’t ride in the popularity of the obident family. The rally was for Obi and obi alone.
