Why we rejected Peter Obi – Miyetti Allah
The Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, also known as Miyetti Allah, has stated its rejection of the candidacy of Peter Obi is due to his being a ‘tribal bigot’. Obi is the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP).
Mr Saleh Ahassan, the national secretary-general of the association, in a Sunday PUNCH interview ruled Obi out of the choices of presidential candidates before its members.
“As far as we are concerned, we know those we cannot vote for. You see that they call Obi or OBIdient, any Fulani man who votes for him must be questioned because he may not be a true son of the soil.
“Obi represents the Biafran interest. So, we know those we cannot vote for and those that cannot be president of Nigeria. He is a tribal bigot,” he stressed.
Alhassan also stated that when Obi was the governor of Anambra State, he “destroyed the businesses of northerners and chased plenty Hausa and Fulani people from entering Anambra”.
