We'll all relocate to Cameroon if LP loses - Lawal

Lawal said if the LP loses in 2023, Obi and others in the party, including himself, will relocate to Cameroon.

The APC bigwig said:

“I am in APC and a member of the Board of Trustees of the party, but I am doing the Peter Obi/Yusuf Datti movement. The APC has not sacked me yet. I don’t know what they are waiting for.

“We want (Obi) to win this election and must win this election. If we lose this election, we’ll all migrate to Cameroon because of the shame and disgrace of failure to win. It is not about whether we have options, Peter Obi must win this election."

Peter Obi is who Nigerians need

For Lawal, Obi is competent to give Nigerians the change they have been yearning for since 2015.

“Fortunately, we have a competent person in Peter and his running mate. We need an arrowhead to drive this change and these two provide it.

“I am not interested in LP as a party. I am interested in Peter Obi as a potential presidential candidate. It doesn’t matter which party Peter Obi is, I sense that Nigerians are due for change.."
