Shehu Sani, a social critic and former Nigerian lawmaker has said the supporters of the Labour Party (LP), popularly called ‘OBIdients’ are the reason Nigeria has not fallen into dictatorship.
According to him, the Obidients have become a bone stuck in the neck of the ruling party.
Sani, who has been a focal voice since the February 25 presidential election, commended Peter Obi’s army of supporters over their huge impact on the polity.
He stated this in a tweet on his verified handle on Wednesday.
“If you remove the supporters of the Labour Party from Nigeria’s political space,we will all have the peace and tranquillity we want and the tyranny we don’t want,” he tweeted.
