Activist lawyer, Deji Adeyanju, has said frontline
supporters of President Bola Tinubu are backing Peter Obi to emerge as the
presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, ADC.
Adeyanju said Tinubu’s major supporters like the Minister of
Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, and former governor of Ekiti
State, Ayodele Fayose, are supporting Obi to emerge as ADC candidate.
He was reacting to Fayose’s remark that Obi is the only life
in ADC.
Fayose had said: “Peter Obi is the only life in ADC. Other
lives there are semi-existing. Atiku and Tambuwal destroyed PDP.”
Posting on X, Adeyanju wondered why they are afraid of a
Northern presidential candidate.
He wrote: “Why are all major Tinubu supporters promoting
Peter Obi their man Friday? From Keyamo to Fayose, etc; they want the coalition
to present Obi.
“Why does it look like they are afraid of a northern
candidate, especially the serial contester Atiku? Their fear is too obvious.”
