Desperate Peter Obi Storms Niger Mosque, Breaks Fast With Muslims

By Kazeem Ugbodaga, PM News

Former Governor of Anambra State (and Labour Party Presidential candidate in the February 25, 2023 election), Peter Obi is seriously desperate to become the President of Nigeria. His new antics is to visit mosques to donate items to them during this Ramadan period.

Obi, who never visited or entered a mosque during his last presidential campaign where he lost to President Bola Tinubu has begun subtle campaign for 2027.

During last year’s campaign, he toured several churches to garner support for his presidential aspiration but he lost most of the votes in the North.

Obi is now touring mosques to attempt to woo them to his side ahead of the 2027 presidential election. He is using the hunger in the land to sway them to his side.

He stormed the Barkin-Iku Suleja Niger State Central Mosque, located along the Suleja – Kaduna road in Niger State on Wednesday.

Obi offered aid to about 100 individuals and broke the Ramadan fast with about 1,000 individuals, and share a meal with the devout Muslim community.

The former Presidential candidate posted photos of his visit to the mosque on his X handle and wrote: “In continuation of my nationwide tour of identifying and sharing with the Muslim faithful during this sacred Ramadan season, I made a stop at the Barkin-Iku Suleja Niger State Central Mosque, located along the Suleja – Kaduna road in Niger State.

“It was a privilege to offer aid to about 100 individuals, break the Ramadan fast with about 1000 individuals, and share a meal with the devout Muslim community, fostering a spirit of togetherness and solidarity, while also addressing a critical societal need by installing a borehole. During this visit, I had the honour of listening to a Tafsir by the Chief Imam, who revealed the pressing needs of the community that has been deprived of a basic necessity for over three decades—a reliable source of clean water.

“I am thankful that this act of support was able to meet their need for the last 30 years and exemplify the core values of our movement—empathy, inclusivity, and a commitment to uplifting the lives of all citizens, regardless of creed or background.”

Obi said it was his fervent hope that this gesture would not only alleviate the immediate challenges faced by the community but also serve as a symbol of his unwavering dedication to the welfare and progress of every Nigerian.

“As we continue our journey, I am reminded of the profound significance of unity and compassion, especially during this holy month.

Together, let us strive to build a nation where the basic needs of every community are met, and where the spirit of generosity and understanding prevail,” he said.
