A group under the aegis of Peter Obi Support Network on Monday, said they will raise N6 billion to support the presidential bid of a former Governor of Anambra State, Mr Peter Obi.
The group is also seeking to recruit over 250 journalists and bloggers nationwide for the project.
The group pledged to work pro-bono, in the pursuit of the Obi’s ambition.
“We seek to recruit journalists bloggers, online Publishers and social media influencers to support Peter Obi’s Presidential aspirations.
“The Peter Obi Support Network is crowdfunding for Peter Obi’s presidential campaign because they are worried that Mr Obi appears to have no formidable mobilization structure on the ground.
“As you all are aware, running for President in Nigeria is way beyond social media or speaking grammar. He needs to hit the ground running and so, POSN has come to the rescue”, the group said.
The Network gathered that the Peter Obi Support Network, is made up of Nigerians at home and in the diaspora who have come together to contribute their personal and financial resources to help finance the expenses of Mr Peter Obi’s presidential campaign, with a strong conviction that he is most qualified to rule the country.
