The spokesperson of the Atiku/Okowa presidential campaign council, Senator Dino Melaye, has lambasted the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, describing him as one who lacks maturity.
Melaye, in a video poster on his Twitter page on Monday, November 7, described Obi’s outburst as unwarranted and unpresidential.
Melaye and Obi were involved in a heated outburst at the presidential town hall meeting organised by Arise Television held on Sunday, November 6.
Obi has accused the former lawmaker of taunting his supporters and accusing them of taking over the sessions at the presidential debate.
The obviously furious Labour Party candidate said: “You see what is happening here, I won’t take it! He called it Obi people. This colonel is an ANPP person and you call him Obi people.
“Stop that please Dino. Dino stop that; I’ve taken a lot from you here. What do you want? Why are you always calling me?”
However, Melaye took to social media to reply Obi, stating that the outburst was unwarranted and that his behaviour was unpresidential.
He said Obi’s attitude shows that he is capable of physically assaulting his security detail if he becomes president.
