An Abuja based lawyer and business consultant, Ali Toyin Smart who was a guest speak during the June edition of State of the Nation, on GOVERNMEND NG showed his unwavering support for the former Anambra State governor, Peter Obi, who is in the race to become President Muhammadu Buhari’s successor; just like other candidates cleared to run by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

While speaking on the likely outcome of the general election, he mentioned that Peter Obi is the right candidate to be supported by the youths, if indeed they are tired of the recycled old men in power.

He however stressed the three criteria to watch out for in the forthcoming general election: political antecedent, skills set and the will to make a change. To him, only Peter Obi has shown these three signs of a change maker.

While he was quizzed by the host, Mr. Solomon Olukoya of GOVERNMEND NG about other candidates in the race, Barr. Smart said “well, I don’t believe anybody should be talking about other candidates with no visible structure and strong electoral value. Aside the two old men presented by the PDP and the APC, Peter Obi is the only candidate that can be talking about victory after the general election. The seat of the president is not a child’s play and should not be taken as such.”

Some of the audience who participated in the virtual interview reacted and drew inference from what happened to the Labour Party in Ekiti during the governorship election few days ago. A group also said it’s wrong to write off credible candidates like Omoyele Sowore who has been at the forefront of the struggle for justice and Kwankwaso who is equally a big name in the race.
