In his recent post, he alleged that “ordinary seat = $250; VIP seat = $1000; Executive seat = $500” are paid to listen to the former Governor of Anambra in his recent tour oversea.
He further stated, “Peter Obi is just a clever man that knows he will not win and wants to use this election to cash out! Look at the prices he is charging. And he says he is for the poor! If you don’t have shishi, stay away!”
However, netizens have condemned the post, noting that people pay to listen to politicians oversea, and the same thing happened to Peter Obi in his recent tour.
