Bwala Questions Obi's Social Media Influence on Elections

In an interview with Central TV, Bwala expressed skepticism regarding Peter Obi's chances of winning the presidency, stating that his popularity is primarily rooted in social media through the Obidi Movement rather than a robust political structure across Nigeria. Bwala highlighted that Obi, the former governor of Anambra State, does not possess widespread grassroots backing necessary for electoral success.

He pointed out that while Obi has successfully reached religious audiences, his messaging appears to sideline broader political engagement. Bwala emphasized that Obi's current strategy may limit his appeal beyond specific groups, arguing that social media enthusiasm does not always convert into actual votes.

He urged observers to consider the challenges Obi faces in translating his online popularity into tangible political influence on the ground, suggesting that without local support, he may struggle to reach Aso Villa.
