Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has said he is overwhelmed by the show of love from his supporters after one of them climbed Mount Kilimanjaro to hoist the flag of the Labour Party.
The enthusiastic Diaspora supporter of Mr Obi, who identified himself simply as OGersh on Twitter, reached Uhuru Peak on Kilimanjaro in Tanzania after 10 and a half hours climbing, hiking, and trekking.
He said on his Twitter handle that Africa’s highest mountain is the best place to announce what is about to be the birth of a new Nigeria.
“On Fri, 20/10/2022 after 10½ hrs of climbing, hiking and trekking, I made it to the Uhuru Peak of Mount Kilimanjaro, 5,895m above sea level.
