IBADAN, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA) – Popular Nigerian singer Paul Okoye also known as Rude Boy of P-Square has mocked Governors apologizing to the people in their states, barely one week to the governorship election.
The state governorship election is scheduled to hold coincidentally with the state house of assembly elections on Saturday, 11 March.
In a tweet on Sunday, Paul Okoye predicted a sweeping victory for the Labour Party while questioning the suddenness of the apologies emanating from state Governors.
He tweeted: ”Why all of a sudden all the governors are apologizing? 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️ …… this weekend we all will be singing and counting Ellu P 👨👩👧”
In a series of video trending on social media, some state governors including Lagos State Governor Jide Sanwo-Olu and Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State, were seen clamouring for the people’s votes ahead of Saturday’s election.
Marilyn Okowa-Daramola, the daughter of Delta State Governor who is also PDP vice-presidential candidate could also be seen begging supporters of Labour Party in the State, to vote for their party’s governorship candidate.
Netizens have since reacted to the videos with a tweep, Mo-Mo saying: “Who would have thought that Okowa’s daughter can beg for votes.
“Your vote counts. I promise. Please and Please LP all through. Everywhere.”

“Fellow Obidients! Okowa’s dota is a stickler for due process and getting the right things done the right way. She doesn’t cut corners this I know from personal experiences while working with her during the Project GEST. Abeg let’s vote for her,” @chijiokeoguguo tweeted.
