Nobel Laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka, has said that the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, is unfit to lead the country.

According to his statement ,he said, he had become evident with the conduct of his supporters, popularly known as ‘Obidients’, during electioneering of the 2023 general elections.

He said that Obi’s failure to reign on his supporters attacking others with opposing views online was a pointer that he is unfit to lead a country like Nigeria.

The literary icon also accused Obi, who is a former Anambra governor, of encouraging ‘Obidients’ to attack him and others with opposing views online.

Speaking in a recent interview with Noble Nigeria, the Nobel laureate said he hoped the former governor won’t contest the 2027 presidential election.
