The Convener, Concerned Nigerians, Deji Adeyanju, says he is willing to place a $10,000 bet that Labour Party candidate, Peter Obi will come third in the 2023 presidential election.
Adeyanju, who is a social media influencer, said this in a Friday tweet.
Obi is considered by many to be among the four frontline candidates for the February 25, 2023 election, alongside Asiwaju Bola Tinubu of All Progressives Congress (APC), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).
However, many critics of Obi say despite enjoying massive followership on social media, he is unlikely to win the presidency due to his party’s lack of structure compared to the APC and PDP.
Adeyanju dared any Peter Obi supporter willing to bet on his candidate’s chances to come forward.
He tweeted, “Willing to bet $10k with any Obedient in Nigeria or in diaspora that Obi will come distant 3rd in February.
“Put your money where your mouth is. Let’s find someone we can deposit the money with now so you don’t change your mind later.
“I suggest Egbon Dele MOMODU to keep the money.”
