The Labour Party (LP) Presidential Candidate in the just concluded 2023 general election, Mr. Peter Obi, has appealed to the Muslim community in Anambra State to disregard anyone accusing him of disliking the Northerners.
Meanwhile, Tribune Online reported Bashir Ahmad, a special assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari, had earlier berated the LP standard-bearer, accusing him of disliking the North, adding that the region would never support his presidential ambition.
Obi made the appeal at the Central Mosque, Onitsha, Anambra State, on Sunday, where he went to celebrate the Eid-el-Fitr with the Muslim ummah residing in the state.
While presenting food items and cash gift of N500,000 to the Community, Obi explained that his visit was to celebrate the Eid-el-Fitr with them as he has always done, promising to continue to support the muslims in the state and other parts of the country.
Reiterating the need for Nigerians to love and appreciate one another, he stated that every Nigerian should be free to live and thrive in any part of the country without intimidation or harassment.
