The governor’s aide alleged that Obi’s appearance was an attempt to make up for the low turnout at his earlier political engagement in Ughelli, Delta State.
He further claimed that the former governor joined the worshippers without an invitation after noticing the large crowd gathered for prayers.
Ossai also disputed the description of the reception as a major political show of support, suggesting that Obi’s supporters had portrayed the gathering as a successful political outing.
Meanwhile, Obi’s supporters in Delta State have continued to draw crowds at several recent political events across the state.
