Chief Anayo Arinze, the African Democratic Congress’ chairman for electoral matters, has warned the Labour Party and Peter Obi, its presidential candidate, not to be fooled by their large social media followings.
Arinze claimed that individuals using social media to promote the LP and its candidate were simply doing so to mislead the public because the Independent National Electoral Commission did not have polling stations on these sites.
At the ADC stakeholders meeting on Sunday in Awka, he made this statement while pointing out that Obi’s appeal was largely based on social media and that the LP would not advance because it lacked a structure and no politicians to support its candidates for the 2023 election.
He claims that the general election in 2023 will be fiercely contested in all of the states of the Federation and will be unique from previous elections.
He said, “I don’t think the Labour Party would make any good headway in the election. They are currently the champion on social media. They have no structure at all levels, including Anambra State, where its presidential candidate comes from.
“They have no offices where they do hold meetings except social media platforms, so how do you expect them to have votes on the election?”
He also noted that it would take a miracle for the Labour Party with no structure at the grassroots to win the election, particularly, in Anambra State.
He said the purpose of the ADC stakeholders’ meeting was to articulate the way forward for the party and its candidates for the 2023 general election.
He boasted that since the registration of the ADC in 2006 as a political party in Nigeria under the leadership of Chief Ralphs Nwosu, it had always produced the best presidential candidate that would transform Nigeria into a global super power, starting with Prof. Pat Utomi to the late Dr Obediah Mailafia, the former Deputy Governor of Central Bank Nigeria.
“For the 2023 presidential election, we have presented to Nigerians another great thinker, technocrat, a highly successful businessman, builder and entrepreneur, Mr Dumebi Kachikwu, whose businesses cut across 20 countries in four continents to take Nigeria to greater levels. Dumebi is ready and spurred to give Nigeria a holistic transformation to a global super power and reckoning in the community of nations,” he added.
He urged members of the party to re-enact their zeal, commitment and patriotism towards the party and all its candidates.
“Now that ADC is at the verge of winning major electoral victories in 2023, I implore all of you to stick with the party, shun anti-party activities as many of you are doing presently and focus on the ADC campaigns. Ensure that your wings are well covered. Let us work to deliver Mr Dumebi Kachikwu and our great party, the ADC, in 2023,” he noted.
