Looters of Lagos treasury sent thugs to attack Obidients. Let it be known that they will not prevail as we will resist them. This is 2023 and freedom is here. You can’t stop Peter Obi. #LagosObiDattiRally

“Obidients are bullies”.
But one party is currently trying to prevent LP rally in Lagos by sponsoring attacks with thugs armed with machetes and guns.
The wickedness of our “intellectuals and celebrities” isn’t talked about enough.

We are seeing countless number of attack on Peter Obi supporters in Lagos. Yeah the Lagos Tinubu built is not safe for democracy to thrive. In general it’s not safe for citizens. #LagosForLP#ObiDattiLagos

You called @peterobi Twitter president but you’re jittery and not allowing the 4 persons tweeting from a room to do their campaign in peace. Releasing your street urchins to attack them won’t help u. I know you’re afraid of ur imminent defeat. #ObiDattiInLagos

I wonder why OBIDIENTs attack anybody that be against PETER OBI … I just wonder coz Twitter is not a real place, As long u have ur PVC with u why worry? U only giving those people who are attacking OBI more relevance. I wish we can ignore them.
