The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Peter Obi, has replied Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, over his comment that he should focus on Nollywood instead of running for the presidency.
The former Anambra State Governor said since El-Rufai called him an actor, he would focus on Nollywood.
Obi gave the reply on Sunday while featuring on Arise Television’s Sunday Show Program.
Recall that El-Rufai had while featuring on the Channels Television’s programme over the week dismissed Obi’s chances in the forthcoming presidential election.
El-Rufai also claimed that Obi wouldn’t score more than 1% in Sokoto and 2% in Katsina States, respectively.
Obi replied, “I thank El Rufai for what he said, at least he gave me some percentages; I’ll work hard to improve on that. The Entertainment Industry is one of the engines that will develop us as a Nation, I’ll focus on that and Nollywood.
“And since he said I’m an actor, I’m calling on all those in the entertainment industry, including Nollywood, to support me.”
