Presidential candidate of the Labour Party Peter Obi has arrived Makurdi for the party’s rally in Benue State.

Mr Obi announced his arrival on Wednesday via a tweet.

“I just arrived Makurdi for the Benue Rally,” he wrote, with photos.

Obi kick-started a nationwide campaign last month in Lafia, Nasarawa State capital in the North-Central geopolitical zone.

Obi, his running mate, Datti Baba-Ahmed; national chairman of the Labour Party, Julius Abure; and other members of the party’s 1,234 campaign council members were at the rally.

Director-general of Obi’s campaign council, Doyin Okupe, said the campaign train of the former Anambra State governor will be massive across all the six geopolitical zones of the country.

According to Okupe, Obi and Baba-Ahmed will crisscross the length and breadth of Nigeria from Nasarawa State to meet with their supporters popularly known as ‘Obidients’ in all parts of the country.
