Former Ebonyi State Governor, Dave Umahi, has stated that Peter Obi, the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential candidate, is not superior to him. Umahi made these remarks during a 'Operation Rescue Benin-Asaba Road' event in Benin City, Edo State, on Thursday. He added that the South-East region would eventually produce Nigeria's president, but emphasized that it was not yet their turn.
When confronted with claims that Obi did not pose a challenge, Umahi urged people to consider their family backgrounds, intellectual capacity, records of service, and contributions to the South-East. He pointed out that when Obi said he was not his match, Umahi could only think about whether Obi's family background, intellect, or achievements for the South-East were superior to his own.
Umahi also defended his backing for President Bola Tinubu, asserting that administration members would not remain silent when the President and his government faced criticism.
