However, the activist advised Obi to take his consultations beyond the south and use his campaign to forge strong connections across Nigeria, including the northern region.
He predicted that if the former Anambra governor does more than what his supporters are doing via social media, the narrative can be changed for good.
His words:
“I will still say Peter Obi is not ready to be president, because he is not ready to cross River Niger and even River Owena.
“Selling himself to the people of northern extraction may change the narrative."
