Bashir Ahmad, Former Personal Assistant on New Media to President Muhammadu Buhari, has expressed worry over the growing popularity of Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of Labour Party, LP, in some Northern States.
According to the former presidential aide, Obi’s name has metamorphosed into a movement in Kano and Katsina States.
In a tweet, Bashir warned other presidential candidates that Obi had become a movement to beat in both States, adding that the former Anambra state governor may likely claim 75 to 80 percent votes in the northern States.
