The governor-elect of Abia State, Alex Otti has come under fire for referring to the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi as “my President in waiting”.
Obi had shared on Twitter a congratulatory post praising Otti for winning the Abia State governorship election.
A while ago, I spoke with my brother, Dr. Alex Otti @alexottiofr, the Governor-elect of Abia State and heartily congratulated him on his election. I am gratified that the will and wish freely expressed by the Abia electorates have been respected.
“I pray for God’s guidance and protection for the incoming Governor of God’s Own State. -PO,” Obi had posted.
In his response, Otti said, “Thank you very much for your kind words and prayers my President in waiting.”
He has however deleted the tweet.
