Chacha expressed that it was her “focus” that the Labour Party candidate becomes the next president of Nigeria, as evidenced by the photo she shared of him, with a frame usually reserved for presidents.
In her words,
“Some reports gave me adrenaline rush, and some gave me emotional meltdown. I choose to focus on this frame (Peter Obi) that will eventually be hung on walls all around the world.”
