Supporters of Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, on Tuesday descended on the former lawmaker, Ben Murray-Bruce, over his tweet on a comment made by the presidential candidate at the 62nd colloquium of the Nigerian Bar Association held in Lagos on Monday.
The former Anambra State governor, who spoke at the event as a guest speaker, had harped on the urgency of focused leadership as solution to Nigeria’s crises.
According to him, the country was drifting very hard and must be reworked in the interest of Nigerians.
“Nigeria has all qualities of a failed state. Insecurity has tore us apart. And we want to transit as a country, we need visionary, articulated and competent leadership”, Obi said.
However, Bruce who tweeted via his Twitter handle over the statement, claimed Peter Obi endorsed his Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) counterpart, Atiku Abubakar by using the word ‘articulated’.
Exposed!! Popular Abuja doctor revealed how men can naturally and permanently cure poor erection, quick ejaculation, small and shameful manhood without side effects. Even if you are hypertensive or diabetic . Stop the use of hard drugs for sex!! It kills!
This interpretation had generated backlash from Obi’s supporters nicknamed OBIdients, many of whom felt the former lawmaker went over board.
Take a look at some.
endorse how? he showed respect by greeting him as an elder brother or uncle. But Peter Obi was the best speaker at the Conference…he will be the next president of Nigeria by God’s Grace

Sir, you may be supporting Atiku based on your personal choice & conviction, that’s absolutely fine. But to share a twisted video to push your course is a no-no. This is spreading falsehood. You are definitely better than this.
