Peter Obi warns supporters against attacking other aspirants

A former Governor of Anambra State and a presidential aspirant of the Labour Party Peter Obi has warned his supporters against attacking other aspirants and candidates.

Obi, who moved to the Labour Party after dumping the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), gave the warning through his verified Twitter handle @PeterObi on Sunday.

“It has been brought to my attention, and I have also observed that some of my numerous supporters are making personal attacks on other aspirants/candidates.

“Whilst thanking you for your support, which I sincerely value and appreciate, I humbly appeal that we all imbibe the spirit of sportsmanship and avoid name-calling or personal attacks on other aspirants and candidates.

“The common goal is to make Nigeria better. Elections are a democratic contest and need not be adversarial,” Obi tweeted.
