The presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, Omoyele Sowore has reacted to Obasanjo’s endorsement of the Labour Party’s flag-bearer for the 2023 elections. The Punch had recently reported how ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo in a letter to Nigerians endorsed Peter Obi as his candidate for the presidency ahead of the 2023 presidential election in February.

In his new year message made available by his aide, Obasanjo disclosed that Obi who is his mentee has an edge over other presidential candidates as far as understanding Nigeria’s needs is concerned.

While reacting to this in a post on his official Facebook handle few hours ago, Sowore who is also the national chairman of the African Action Congress said:

“For us, we crave and are satisfied with the endorsements of the people.”

Sowore’s reaction is coming hours after the presidential campaign councils of Tinubu and Atiku demean Obasanjo’s endorsement of the former Anambra governor.
