Festus Keyamo, the minister of state for labour and employment, on Friday, told Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s (LP) candidate for the 2023 presidential election, that his “tantrums” are pointless because the US is aware that he lost the election “fair and square.” RipplesNigeria reports.
But in a tweet on Friday, Keyamo said Obi overrated his “tantrums” and that of his supporters as having any effect internationally.
“It’s obvious that you and your supporters have overrated your noise and tantrums after the election as having any real effect internationally. No, they have not had any such massive effect as you would wish,” he said.
“Unfortunately for you, the US has dealt with so many opposition figures around the world and they know exactly how to separate facts from fiction. They know you lost, fair and square. They know that in a complex society like Nigeria, you could not have won with your message of ‘religious war’.
“They know you’re just a splinter of the main opposition, the PDP, so it amounts to delusions of grandeur to think that you won when you actually came third.NYSC Portal
