The Labour Party’s Presidential Campaign Committee (LPPCC) has again advised Nigerians against taking seriously presidential candidates and parties that wants to instill a president by proxy. 

The party insisted that whoever wants to lead Nigeria in 2023, must speak to Nigerians by himself and not by a proxy, advising Nigerians to learn lessons from their 2015/2019 episode, which landed the country in its present economic, security and social quagmire.

It noted that rather than address issues, “attack dogs”, who have become of the spokespersons of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peopels Democratic Party (PDP), only haul insults on the opponents of their principals, make outlandish statements, without addressing the big debilitating problems facing the country.

Labour Party describes the resource to such tactics ascoli fashioned and diversionary” and called on Nigerians to remain vigilant and not allow such persons pull wool once again on their eyes.

In a statement by the Obi-Datti Campaign Office added: “The attention of the Obi-Datti Media Campaign office has been drawn to a challenge thrown to the Labour Party Presidential Candidate, Mr. Peter Obi by one of the opponents attack dogs, the Minister of State for Labour, Festus Keyamo, for his son to organize a successful campaign rally in his state Anambra akin to what APC flag bearer’s son, Seyi Tinubu, did for his dad in Lagos.

“But the attack dog forget to differentiate the two sons, and their fathers. 

“The only thing that joins Obi and Tinubu is that they were once governors of states in Nigeria. 

“After that one became a parasite to the state government he served with his entire family, while the the other left government house and he and any members of his family never collected a dime from Anambra state. This assertion is verifiable for Keyamo and his other hirelings.

“Unlike Tinubu and his household who have grown to be stupendously  wealthy with no identifiable industry or means of making money outside the state government for over two decades.

“If Keyamo had taken time to study the family he speaks for very well, he would have avoided this comparison that is bound to expose the parasitic life of his Principal and understand why the entire household is headlong in the campaign.

“The other time Tinubu’s wife, Senator Remi was threatening fire and brimstone over Lagos, then the daughter and now the son is showing off with rally. 

“Do you blame a people struggling to keep a family business? The Tinubu family have cornered the commonwealth of Lagos state which they now run as a family enterprise.

“Obi’s family is not part of his politcs, they are running their lives, contributing to development without  nearing public funds.

“Obi-Datti Media office also noticed that Tinubu’s wife and some parasitic First Ladies took government airplane to campaign spots because they can hardly exist without government patronage.

“The LP Candidate, Peter Obi is the man seeking the mandate of the Nigerian people to serve them as President not any other member of his family. 

“He has said it repeatedly that Nigerians must reject anybody desiring to be President by proxy.

“We therefore join our candidate to demand that candidates, not their wives, sons or daughters, are seeking for the peoples votes and they should be scrutinized by the people.

“It’s dangerous and discomforting when we cannot differentiate public funds from family and private funds and a serving Minister of the Republic is defending and celebrating it.

“But that is exactly what Nigerian youths through the Obidient Movement are out to halt through their take back Nigeria mantra”.
