Former Kogi West Senator, Dino Melaye, has taken a swipe at Labour Party Presidential candidate, Peter Obi, stating that former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakar discovered him before keypad warriors.
He also stated that Atiku Abubakar is the only qualified candidate to wion the 2023 presidential elections.
Describing the PDP presidential candidate as a talent hunter, Melaye said Obi was unknown before Atiku identified him.
He spoke during an event in Abuja on Sunday.
Melaye maintained that everyone who was a reformer in Nigeria between 1999 to date was discovered by Atiku.
He said: “Atiku discovered Obi before keyboard warriors discovered Obi. Unfortunately, elections are not going to take place on social media. It is going to take place at the polling units. And those that would vote are the people here. So it is now operation votes must count.
“Out of all the presidential candidates, he is the only one with Presidential campaign experience. All of them are running for the office of the president for the first time. From Kwankwaso, to Obi to Tinubu and others. Atiku has led this route before. He understands it and he will emerge victorious by the grace of God.”
