Former Senator, Dino Melaye who recently declared his intention to contest the Kogi State governorship election billed for November 11, 2023, has come under heavy criticism after using slang likened with the ‘obidents’ to campaign.
The Obidents are supporters of the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Peter Obi who are predominately youths.
OsunDaily News reports that the former lawmaker took to his Twitter account on Saturday whilst calling on his supporters to support his gubernatorial ambition used the word ‘POssible’, a trademark known to the LP candidate, Peter Obi.
Reacting to his tweet, suppporters of the former Anambra governor slammed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain for using Obi’s slogan to campaign.
