• There was a mild drama As Guests ushered Peter Obi into wedding reception with Tinubu’s anthem. 

THE NATION REPORTERS reports that there was a mild drama at a wedding reception where Peter Obi, Presidential Candidate of Labour Party, was ushered in with what associates of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), refer to as his anthem.

The anthem is usually sang in gatherings where political allies of the APC Presidential Candidate honour him.

On your mandate we shall stand, on your mandate we shall stand, Bola, on your mandate, Bola, on your mandate, on your mandate, we shall stand, are the words of the anthem.

However, when Obi, who is fast gaining popularity, especially among young people, in the build up to the 2023 elections, walked into a wedding reception in Lagos, the atmosphere got charged.

Immediately the MC announced his arrival, the wedding guests rushed to take pictures with him, while the band changed its song to Tinubu’s anthem, but without mentioning the name of Obi’s rival in the presidential race.

A Twitter user simply identified as Dave shared a a video of the incident with the caption: “Someone was mobbed at a wedding in Lagos yesterday.”

The video has been widely shared by supporters of Obi known as #Obidients on social media.
