LP Spokesperson, Dele Farotimi Replies Man Who Said Obi Won In S/East Because He's From The Region

Dele Farotimi, a lawyer and spokesperson for the OBIDATTI Presidential campaign council, responded to a Twitter user who said that Peter Gregory Obi won in the South East during the presidential election due to his regional background. Farotimi challenged this assertion by providing historical context and examples.

Farotimi countered the claim by pointing out that political parties such as AG, UPN, and AD had won elections in the Western region with significant margins due to the leadership capacity of individuals like Chief Obafemi Awolowo. He highlighted that these victories were not solely based on the candidates’ regional origin but were a result of their leadership qualities.

In the case of Peter Gregory Obi, Farotimi emphasized that the people of the South East embraced him due to their awareness of his capabilities and accomplishments. By using historical examples and reasoning, Farotimi aimed to show that election outcomes are influenced by various factors beyond regional affiliations, including the candidates’ competence and accomplishments.
