Businessman and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain, Ned Nwoko and popular Nollywood actress, Regina Daniels recently got more than what they bargained for at a political rally.
Ned, who is vying for a senatorial seat under PDP in Delta State and his wife, Regina, had gone to address a crowd of Nigerian youths to convince them to vote for him and his party with just a few days to the Presidential elections.
However, the youths as seen in a video that made the rounds on social media, seemed to have other ideas in mind.
While Ned shouted ‘PDP’ to the crowd and expected them to respond by saying ‘Power’, they replied by chanting the name of Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi.

At one point, he lost control of the crowd, while the organisers of the event tried to caution the youths and stop them from chanting Obi’s name.
His wife, Regina was also spotted seating at the high table and observing the situation as it unfolded.
After the clip of youths chanting Obi’s name during Ned Nwoko’s campaign surfaced online, Nigerians trooped to the comment section of the post to air their views.
