Shehu Sani to opposition, stop attacking Obasanjo for endorsing Peter Obi

Former lawmaker, Shehu Sani has urged aggrieved politicians to stop attacking former president, Olusegun Obasanjo, over his endorsement of the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi for the forthcoming poll.

Recall that Obasanjo in his New Year message on Sunday declared that the former Anambra governor has an edge over other candidates vying for the nation’s top job.

Supporters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu and his Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) counterpart have been expressing anger over the public endorsement.

Reacting to the controversies, Shehu Sani said that the former president is entitled to his own opinion, stressing that he should not be attacked for the choice he made.

In a tweet on his official Twitter handle, Shehu Sani wrote, “Obasanjo has made his choice. He is entitled to his opinion. He should not be attacked.

“Those who can’t get his endorsement should seek that of Gowon, IBB or Abdulsallam, they are equally credible former military and political leaders. Ordinary President of Berekete is also available”.
