He is also making solid inroads into the middle belt, northern Nigeria, and parts of the south-west.<\/p>\n<p>He continued, \u201cPeter Obi was endorsed by Adebanjo-led Afenifere group, and this has strengthened the relationship between the south east and the south west.\u201d This shows a wide acceptance for an Igbo son across the country. This appeases the Igbo people, and that is why they have become more emotionally invested in Nigeria and participatory in election activities. They are identifying more with Nigeria due to the show of solidarity and love by the rest of Nigeria for their son. Peter Obi has become the bridge between the Igbos and the rest of Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"wKCLlA0yHXk\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"KAKAAKI  | DEC 13, 2022 | AIT LIVE NOW\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wKCLlA0yHXk?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p> <iframe><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>You can watch the interview here.
