Okupe expressed optimism that the presidential candidate of the LP, Peter Obi, had at least 15 million voters “in the bag,” while 80% of new voters were supporters.
According to him, about 60% of Nigeria’s 38 million social media users were registered to vote, adding that 50% of the figure are ‘Obidients’
Okupe described the All Progressives Congress and People’s Democratic Party as expired commodities with defective structures.
Earlier, Okupe while addressing the media explained that the Obidient Movement transcends ethnic and religions bias because Nigerians were tired of being deceived by career
politicians who had run out of ideas.
