"Beyond regaining our mandate, I am committed to lifting people out of poverty and I remain committed to transforming Nigeria starting from the North to every part of the nation."

Responding to Obi's tweet, Garba stated that the Labour Party's bannerman should continue to wallow in his imagination as he would never be the leader of Nigeria.

He urged Obi to go into exile in Finland and contend with his kinsman for who becomes the leader of the Biafran agitators.

He tweeted:

"We know you are insulting us, we the Northerners Mr. @PeterObi and we are assuring you that as far as the Presidency of Nigeria is concerned, it shall remain in your illusionary dream forever.
"You’ll never come close to it. You bigoted, religious, ethnocentric merchant. You can go to Finland to contend with your new Biafra government in exile."
