Charles Udeogaranya, a former presidential aspirant on the ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2019 has declared his support for Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party.

Udeogaranya made this known in a statement issued in Abuja on Tuesday, October 18.

The ex-APC chieftain also noted that the party's Muslim-Muslim ticket is a clear sign of an Islamisation agenda and despotic government, reports Punch.ng.

He also declared Obi the most credible candidate to lead Nigeria out of the woods. Udeogaranya said there is a grave need for Nigerians to shun primordial sentiments and vote for the right candidate because “times like these demand patriotism and self-help to make the best decisions for our country Nigeria.”

The former APC presidential aspirant said he was unhappy that Nigeria was sliding into anarchy, with the rights of the citizenry wantonly trampled upon, Legit.ng wrote.

It needs to be emphasized that the Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket of the All Progressive Congress (APC) being imposed on Nigerians is a clear sign of the Islamisation agenda and despotic government that are to come. Indeed, that ticket and those flying it have nothing but deceit to offer," he said.

The former APC chieftain added: “With regard to what I have noted, and not limited to them all, I, Chief Charles Udoka Udeogaranya, endorse the Labour Party presidential candidate, Mr Peter Obi as a worthy candidate to pilot the affairs of Nigeria and help to bring to a halt, the perpetual backsliding of Nigeria and possibly reposition Nigeria for better.”
