Popular gospel artist, Frank Edwards, has declared that the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, is a force needed to save Nigeria.
Newsonline reports that the ‘Ebube’ singer has taken the campaign for the former governor of Anambra State to his millions of fans to vote for Peter Obi whom he likened to Messi who makes things happen in football matches and any club he enters.
The ‘Mma Mma’ crooner said though the Labour Party presidential candidate may not be a saint or flawless, he is a genuine human being who has the capacity to save the country.

Frank Edwards said, “At this point clearly and carefully I will vote Peter Obi. . . No matter what happens at least I’ll be sure I tried to put my thumb of support in salvaging Nigeria. If at this point people are already dodging events! What are we still talking about!!! Abeg Abeg!
“The thing is not even about being a saint or flawless. It’s about being a genuinely good person and having good intentions. What we need.”
Edwards added, “I’m not necessarily a labor party supporter. I deal with individuals so if Peter Obi creates a new party today I’ll still vote there.”
Frank Edwards cautioned fans and youths to think of their parents and siblings and the whole country in their decision to vote any other candidate other than Peter Obi.
He called on his supporters to desist from vote buying, but think of long-term effect of voting for a good leader.
“There are people who don’t even care about their parents, siblings etc. Not to talk of Nigerian. That explains why Once you give such a person money to flex for 3 days they will support rubbish! They are not thinking long term!” Frank Edwards said.
