Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, has described Peter Obi’s supporters as “dangerous”.
The followers of the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate are known as “Obidients”.
In an essay titled ‘Who are these Obidients’, Fani-Kayode said he’s interested in knowing what they represent and stand for.
The former presidential aide noted that their rise and relevance in Nigeria’s politics within a few weeks “is meteoric and phenomenal”.
