Sowore blasts Obi, says Nigerians emotional
The African Action Congress presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, has slammed his LP’s counterpart, Peter Obi, for being part of the old system the former governor now claims to fight.
“Peter Obi is part of the old system that I’ve always fought against. I understand where he is coming from,” he said on Channels TV on Friday night.
“This is 1999 repeating itself. Nigerians want change. Some young people are genuinely interested in change to a different direction, and then they are presented with somebody who worked for the establishment; somebody who has been in the PDP, the APGA, came back to the PDP, and now in the Labour Party. We can be emotional about it but that’s the truth.
“He’s not new to the rotten system. Somebody who was Anambra’s governor for eight years. He didn’t build any schools, he didn’t build any industry, he didn’t build a power station. He’s not my kind of progressive.”
Obi has been denigrating the PDP and the APC as corrupt, incompetent major parties after he failed to secure the PDP presidential ticket.
