Presidency 2023: Ortom endorses Peter Obi, but reserves support for PDP
Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State on Wednesday covertly endorsed the presidential candidate of the Labour party (LP), Peter Obi, but withheld his support which he reserved for the Peoples Democratic party (PDP).
Ortom, hosting Obi at his residence in Abuja on Wednesday, had expressed that he would have worked for the success of Peter Obi if he was not a member of the PDP.
According to Ortom, “I’m in PDP and I am working for PDP. But, I tell you, if I were not in PDP, you will see me working for Peter Obi, but I am in PDP.
“Let’s see how things work our but the truth is that the Bible says a man can receive nothing except it is given it to him.”
Ortom noted that Peter Obi, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC), and Atiku Abubakar of the PDP are the three front line presidential candidates, telling Nigerians to elect the best among them without any sentiments.
