Meanwhile, Senator Ben Murray-Bruce has congratulated Mr.Obi on his selection as Atiku’s running mate.

Taking to his Twitter handle, Murray-Bruce said, “Congrats my friend and brother, Mr. Peter Obi on your selection as vice presidential candidate to H.E @atiku. Without doubt, this is a solid team that will lift Nigeria to her rightly place amongst the assembly of nations.”
