He said, “Although the three leading presidential candidates are Asiwaju Bola Tinubu of All Progressives Congress, Atiku Abubakar of Peoples Democratic Party and Peter Obi of Labour Party, the battle is between Tinubu and Atiku.”
The former AG said in an interview with PUNCH, said, “We have three principal presidential candidates; if you look at the credentials of the three of them, when you look at their pedigree, age and sagacity, Peter Obi is the best, but if Obi wins in two states, it must be from the South-East.
“The LP candidate has no structures to win election. Campaigning on social media cannot yield result in Nigeria of today. In Ekiti State today, where is the structure of the LP? Who is their chairman in the state and for most of the states in the country?
