Peter Obi, the presidential flag-bearer of the Labour Party for the 2023 election, on Wednesday said that it is not easy working with persons like socio-political Aisha Yesufu, because “instead of calling you ‘Your Excellency’, they will be arguing with you”.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Obi said this during an interactive section with students in Calabar, Cross River State.
Yesufu is an open supporter of the Labour Party candidate and has attended several campaigns with the former Anambra State governor since he kicked off his rally in October.
“It is not easy working with people like Aisha, instead of calling you “Your Excellency” they will be arguing with you but that is what is needed in Nigeria,” Obi said.
Also, speaking to the students at the town-hall meeting, Obi harped on the importance of education.
“Don’t ever call education a scam. It is an investment you should be proud of,” he said.
