Mixed reactions trail Peter Obi's constant apology to aggrieved persons on social media.

This comes after the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party took to his Twitter page to apologise over his supporters online attacks.

It was reported that Obi's supporters took to social media to rain insults at the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye for urging Christians and Nigerians to pray for the incoming government and that God will support it and give it the grace to do the right thing.

Reacting to this, Peter Obi dissociated himself from the social media attacks and said persons responsible are not Obidients as his supporters are law abiding.

This would not be the first time he has taken to social media to apologise over insults leveled on certain personalities.

However, Senator Shehu Sani a known supporter of Peter Obi, took to his Twitter page to urge him to desist from his constant apology.

According to him, should he continue apologising and dissociating himself from whatever his supporters do, he will kill the fire they have for him.

He added that he sparked the fire and so he should learn to embrace whatever comes with courage.

Sani tweeted; "Asiwaju, Atiku & Buhari never denounce or apologise for whatever their supporters say or do.Peter keeps apologising & disassociating. If U keep moving on this apologetic path you will kill the libido of your movement. You sparked a fire, embrace the inferno with courage."

Some Obidients took to Shehu Sani's comment section to support him claim while others disagreed saying his actions are what make him different from the other candidates.
