In an interview with Arise News during the Morning Show program, Chris Nwaokobia, Convener, CountryFirst movement, asked that if 100 million were released to the Oyo state rally, how many states are in the southwest.
Chris Nwaokobia was asked to react to the alleged financial misappropriation by the Ogun state chairman, Labour Party chapter, Michael Ashade, and Abayomi Arabambi, the party’s national publicity secretary, of 100 million naira budgeted for mobilization for Oyo rally, of which 20 million naira is for Ogun State, asking him if they truly budgeted that amount for the rally, since the Labour Party and Obi/Datti slogan is that “we no dey give shishi”
Christ Nwaokobia first stated that, regarding financial misappropriation,
“Let make these simple conjectures, if 100 million were released for the Oyo state campaign, how many states do you have in the southwest?”
He explains that we have 6 states in the southwest, and if we were to divide the 100 million by 6, we would not have 20 million. And if you would not have 20 million, how could 20 million have been budgeted for Ogun State alone? Then what about the state where the rally was going to be held?
Chris Nwaokobia then said that he thinks people are trying to diminish, reduce, or taint the Obi/Datti movement.
