"Peter Obi is the leader of the Labour Party. He's not only the Leader of the party because incidentally, what happened in the UK, Mr Peter Obi is now the leader of the black race, going by the outcome of the election where the Labour Party won a landslide.

"We have over 5,000 people who attended the meeting. The people are hungry for change and we are ready to give birth to a new Nigeria," he said.
