A few young people in Owerri, Imo State, have taken to the streets to protest a former governor’s remark that anyone who don’t vote for Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) presidential nominee, are saboteurs.

Remember that if Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party’s presidential nominee, wins next year’s election, Ihedioha had previously stated that Nigeria’s presidency would rotate to the South-East following his term.

Additionally, he labeled as saboteurs people who backed Peter Obi and the Labour Party.

In the video, Ihedioha noted that the PDP and the All Progressives Congress are the two parties running in the election and that Nigeria could not afford to make mistakes.

However, the youths who were demonstrating under the banner of Coalition for Peter Obi claimed that he offended the sensibilities of the Igbo people as well as Obi and the Labour Party, LP followers.

Ihedioha later expressed regret for his remark.
