It was reported that a frontline presidential candidate of southeast extraction is Peter Obi, the flag-bearer of the Labour Party. Obi, a former governor of Anambra State, has been endorsed by Chief Adebanjo’s Afenifere group.

During his appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today Chief Adebanjo explained that he is refusing to back Tinubu, his tribesman, because, for eight years, a Yoruba man was president (Olusegun Obasanjo).
