A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) shared a photo of Lagosians screaming the name of Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the party in an event that was organized by some disgruntled governors in the party who are known as the G5 governors.

It was gathered that the party members working with the PDP G-5 (Nyesom Wike, Seyi Makinde, Samuel Ortom, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, and Okezie Ikpeazu) want Lagosians not to vote for Atiku Abubakar and Abdul-Azeez Olajide Adediran (aka Jandor) during the 2023 general elections.

However, their plan and expectation were cut short Lagosians were reported to have declined the call and walked out of the venue.

Dele Momodu who is also the Director of the campaign, overseeing Strategic Communications posted a video of what transpired on the event grounds on his Instagram page.

He wrote: "The G5 was humiliated today in Lagos when addressing the party people not to vote Atiku and Jandor in the coming elections, they were disgraced with their dollars, Lagos no be Rivers. We are ready to win Lagos state. All Lagos state voters ready to vote Dr Abdul-Azeez Olajide Adediran aka Jandor..."

His claims were, however, disputed by a social media user who alleged that Momodu only released an isolated clip of what really happened and intended to use it to deceive gullible persons.

According to the subscriber, this is one of the strategies used to discredit support for the PDP G-5. He wrote: "And gullible ones will believe your caption. It's obvious that your narrative of the event is based on lie.

"You posted an isolated video of people leaving the venue, and someone trying to tell gullible people why they are leaving, sharp mind will know it's just one of your caucus strategies to discredit support for the G5. Daddy abeg post full video of the event sir."
