Why I criticised choice of Peter Obi as Atiku’s running mate –Gov Umahi
Governor of Ebonyi State, David Umahi, says his social media critics over his position on Atiku Abubakar’s nomination of Mr. Peter Obi as a running mate are ‘uninformed.’
Umahi made the assertion on Tuesday in Abakaliki while addressing newsmen after signing a Memorandum of Understanding with the United Nations Development Programme on socio-economic development.
The governor, who is the Chairman of the South East Governors’ Forum, condemned the critics.
He said, “Nobody is against Peter Obi, because he is my friend, competent and you must have seen our pictures together on the social media.”
Umahi explained that South-East leaders were not consulted in making the decision on Obi’s nomination, while no one from Ebonyi and Imo states made the list of the running mate nominees.
