"Eyeofnigeria Na olodo full ADC, why dem dey spell "delegate" as "deligate."
brandoransom said:
"That's handwork of your oga at Abuja after his plans failed to stop the convention, he paid the designer to print Deligate just to embarrass the ADC party."
mrkorgofficial commented:
"It was intentional. Walk with me please. Bear in mind that the APC is running with City Boy slogan and the ADC/Peter Obi faction is running with Village Boy slogan, Hence the spelling Deligate. Lauretta is active."
YusufOzai said:
"I noticed something small today,but it says a lot. On the ADC delegate tags, 'Delegate' was spelled as 'DELIGATE'. Some might say its just a minor mistake & maybe it is. But when you're printing thousands of official tags for a major event, details matter. Just an observation."

"ADC people No Sabi Write Delegate."
