On its part, the Obi-Datti presidential campaign organisation has stated that no family member of its presidential candidate will square up with Bola Tinubu’s son, Seyi, to campaign for office for the former Anambra state governor ahead of the 2023 polls.

The campaign team was responding to comments made by All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign spokesman, Festus Keyamo who asked Obi to draft his son into his campaign team.

Responding, the Labour Party campaign team said Keyamo is unwittingly exposing his candidate and the desperation around his household for the APC candidate to become president at all costs.
