A social media commentator has criticized Peter Obi over his past public positions and political associations, arguing that they raise questions about his judgment.
Daniel Regha alleged that Obi previously defended former Attorney General Abubakar Malami despite corruption allegations and also expressed support for former Central Bank Governor Godwin Emefiele, who is facing multiple corruption-related charges.
The post further referenced Obi's past interactions with Islamic cleric Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, arguing that such associations have attracted public scrutiny.
The remarks come amid reports that properties linked to Abubakar Malami, reportedly valued at over ₦180.4 billion, have been ordered forfeited in an ongoing legal process.
The comments have sparked mixed reactions online, with supporters and critics of Peter Obi offering differing views on whether political associations should influence public perception of a leader.
