Peter Obi’s Supporters Fight Back As Critics Flay Visits To Churches (Video)
After a rousing reception at the Shiloh programme of the Living Faith Church on Thursday, Peter Obi was again coming under criticism for his regular visit to churches, but this time supporters were fighting back with inferences to the Muslim-Muslim ticket as a political strategy of the APC.
GWG.ng reports that Obi was at the Shiloh programme of the Living Faith Church in Ota, Ogun State on Thursday. Before then he had paid shown presence at the major programmes of some of the big churches in the country.
Obi had been announced during services at Dunamis Church, the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG and now at the Shiloh programme of the Living Faith among others.
The presence of the Labour Party candidate in the church programmes has drawn the flak of his political critics who accused him of trying to whip religion into his politics.
Putting the assertion on twitter, Dotun Adegoke @DotunAdegoke3 said:
Rinu let him keep going to church. Though it is illegal, we won’t disqualify him. We need him to contest and reduce Atiku’s votes. Let him get the Christian votes while Tinubu gets both Christians and Muslim votes and let’s who wins. I am a Christian and I’m voting Tinubu sikenan
Dotun Adegoke @DotunAdegoke3
Yinmu! I am a winner and even if Papa anoint him, I and my entire Family won’t join him in voting a liar. Christianity is not synonymous with incompetence, failure and lying. I will rather vote an herbalist with brain than a corrupt Christian. No use religion scam me.
However, supporters came out strongly for Obi and his visit to churches, with Rinu Oduala, a twitter influencer and advocate leading the pack:

APC picked a Muslim-Muslim ticket. They even said on live TV that they did it because that’s their only strategy to win. But, you somehow have a problem with Peter Obi visiting churches. You are mad.
ODIN @Iamman_1

I need you guys to check the people supporting Tinubu and Atiku, they are thieves who want to protect themselves and continue to milk Nigeria dry. Check the supporters of Peter Obi, they are youths are at the receiving end of unemployment, poverty, lack, hunger. Obi is our hope

Don’t twist facts and issues. 1. There is no known law against same same fate ticket 2. There are laws against use of religious places for political campaigns 3. Candidates have right to visit wherever provided the law isn’t flouted.
Chris @Topboychriss
Yakubu Dogara said he is opposing Muslim Muslim ticket but he wants to support Northern Muslim to Northern Muslim power shift. Yakubu Dogara is a clown
NEFERTITI @firstladyship
People who chose a Muslim-Muslim ticket want Peter Obi to stop going to church, because he is contesting to become the next president. So we should stop going to mosques & to churches because of politics? What are they really afraid of? Is Nigeria no longer a secular state?
