Peter Obi will do well as Minister of Economy – Ned Nwoko

Popular Delta-born politician, and PDP Senate candidiate for Delta state, Ned Nwoko has shared his opinion about former Governor of Anambra state, Peter Obi’s participation in the forthcoming governorship election.

The politician who is married to celebrity actress Regina Daniels, acknowledged that Peter Obi is not like other Governors he has met in the past as he’s quite frugal and a big-time capitalist.

Nwoko also stated in the interview with BBC Igbo, that he would like Peter Obi to come back to the Peoples Democratic Party as he will do well as a Minister of Economy and will also help the economy bounce back.

The Delta-born politician further averred that though Peter Obi is popular and might have a support base, he doesn’t have the structure to function as he would need the majority in either house of reps or senate, state house of assemblies and government.

He also said that all of these might take at least 8 years to be achieved. Nwoko further claimed there are many things that would work against the emergence of Peter Obi as President of Nigeria and “it would never happen”.
