Leadership newspaper published an article today about PDP Vice Presidential candidate and former Anambra state governor, Peter Obi titled ”Peter Obi, the Ghost of the past and the Reality of Today”.

The article examined Obi’s time in Anambra state government house and his spat with some Northerners that resided in the state when he was in office.
