Some said Alabi’s declaration was a mockery of the party and its presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
The businessman reacted to some, asking someone who talked about bet: “How much have you got?”
To a tweep who said Alabi was “concerned about LP”, he replied: “PDP is my concern politically. Labour is for online content.”
“You better respect my political game because I’m on ground”, Alabi told another.
“I’m about to contest for a 3rd consecutive federal election. That’s not for twitter experts. This is the real deal.”
Alabi won a return ticket in May after defeating Capt Kazeem Akinjide (rtd) and Comrade Moshood Erubami, a rights activist.
