Valentine Obienyem, the Media Aide to Peoples Democratic Party’s presidential aspirant, Peter Obi, has said that his principal would only support consensus if it is based on fairness, equity and respect for each zone.
Obienyem stated this during an interview recently.
According to him,”Peter Obi will support a consensus candidate based on fairness, equity and respect for each zone.
Although, at the presentation of the nomination of interest form to him by a group of young professionals, Obi, had said he should be considered for the consensus option.
“Since the return of democracy in Nigeria, only late Dr Alex Ekwueme, from the Igbo extraction had contested the party presidential primaries with former President Olusegun Obasanjo, in 1999 and lost,” he said.
