Former People’s Democratic Party (PDP) national publicity secretary Olisa Metuh stated on Saturday, October 08, 2022 that some party leaders “would be so valuable in achieving a balance of power for a Peter Obi’s presidency.”
In addition to warning his supporters to avoid insults, Metuh claimed that if the Labour Party’s Obi wins the 2023 presidential election, there won’t be “a major spread” in the National Assembly.
“Peter Obi joined Labour Party too late in the day to have a major spread/majority in the national assembly if and/or when he wins. I cannot, therefore, understand the condemnation and mob lynching of other southeast politicians who could be of massive help to him in achieving a peaceful balance of power should he be elected as Nigerian President,” Metuh said in a statement.
“Men like Okwy Nwodo, Emeka Ihedioha, Ben Obi, Osita Chidoka, Pius Anyim, and Sam Egwu would be so useful in achieving a balance of power for a Peter Obi’s presidency.

“Therefore, lies the folly in the insults and condemnation that could lower their negotiating value post-May 29th, 2023 should Peter Obi win.”
