Former governor of Anambra State, Mr Peter Obi has said agitators like Sunday Igboho and Nnamdi Kanu are more popular than politicians.
The Vice Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in the 2019 General election said Nigerians’ lack of hope has made Igboho and Kanu more popular than politicians in the Southwest and Southeast.
Speaking at an event tagged: “National Security Challenge: Youths neglect?” in Abuja, Obi stressed that Nigerians now have what drives the economy.
According to Obi: “In the South West, Sunday Igboho is far more popular than all the politicians put together.
“In the South East, Nnamdi Kanu is far more popular than all the politicians put together.
“Because when you talk about separation and everything, you have driven people to the point where they have what drives the economy and what drives people to live in a country is hope.”
