Mr. Andrew Okowa, younger brother to the Delta State Governor, Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa, has described supporters of Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party, (LP), as ‘bunch of hungry and jobless guys’.
Governor Okowa is also the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) running mate to Atiku Abubakar in the coming 2023 general elections.
Andrew Okowa’s outbursts was coming on the heels of the Obidients’ rally in Asaba, Warri and later at Agbor.
This many believe could have triggered his comment where he said: “Supporters of Mr. Peter Obi as a bunch of hungry and jobless guys. No place for Obidients in Ika Land. 2023 is closed”.
Meabwhile Okowa’s comment was roundly condemned by many supporters of Labour Party candidate who have asked the Governor to call his brother to order or distance himself from such reports.
