Newsonline reports that among such opinions was the one from Isaac Fayose, brother to the former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, who stated that the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi has popularity but would need about N50 billion to get the structure Bola Ahmed Tinubu, presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) has to win the 2023 election.
Fayose said that Peter Obi has popularity, but argued that the popularity is mostly social media based, which according to him cannot win election.
He further stated that the former governor of Anambra State would have to mobilize a total sum of about N50 billion to be able to get the structure Tinubu former governor of Lagos State has.
According to Fayose, “Out of all the candidates, Obi is the most popular. If we vote today on social media, he will win. But election is structure-based. So, Obi will need N50 billion to be able to make that government a reality. Fifty billion, yes, Obi will win.
“Remember, Tinubu is a little bit popular too. He has what they call structure. The structure alone is worth fifty billion. He has what they call goodwill. They call him ‘The City Boy’. So ‘where him money no fit reach, him structure go reach, where him structure no fit reach, him popularity go reach’.
“Obi with fifty billion, will manage to buy his own army to defeat Tinubu.”
