Veteran Nigerian singer and songwriter, Charly Boy has said Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the last Saturday’s presidential and National Assembly elections is too weak to fight to reclaim his alleged stolen mandate.
Independent National Electoral Commission had declared Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress as the winner of last Saturday’s presidential election.
But reacting to the outcome of the election in an audio conversation obtained by SaharaReporters on Thursday, Charly Boy described the election as a “selection” and not “an election.”
Asked where he stood after INEC declared former Lagos State Governor, Bola Tinubu as president, the songwriter said, “This is not an election, it is selection. But you know our man now (Peter Obi) he no want trouble (he does not want trouble) because these people are looking for slightest thing, either to destroy him or destroy more evidence and to kill more people.”
Asked whether he was referring to Obi or former President Olusegun Obasanjo as the person who did not want trouble, he said “Baba, yes plus our man also and that conversation was about three days ago.”
Charly Boy in an audio file obtained by SaharaReporters on Thursday confirmed a leaked audio conversation with former President Olusegun Obasanjo, asking him to rally Nigerians to protest against alleged rigging of Saturday’s presidential and National Assembly elections.
