Nigerian rapper Olanrewaju Ogunmefun, popularly called Vector Tha Viper, has warned Nigerians to be careful about former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi.
He reportedly issued the warning while making an appearance as a guest on the podcast Before Tomorrow Comes.
He discussed intelligence, influence, and public figures’ perceptions, emphasising Obi’s extensive knowledge and ability to persuade.
Vector claimed that his warning is not based on any knowledge of Obi’s work or any wrongdoing, but rather on the powerful influence of intelligent and persuasive people.
He clarified that his remarks are intended to remind Nigerians to exercise caution when interacting with powerful people, not to downplay Obi’s accomplishments.
“In actuality, Nigerians should be wary of such a man, who is extremely intelligent,” he stated. He would say, “Go and verify,” but I don’t know or have any issues with him or his position. Although I may have personal opinions based on my own experiences, I am at a loss for words. I would advise you to avoid this individual. However, I am aware that someone who is well-versed in their subject and can speak persuasively is attractive.
“This isn’t meant to stop him from doing what he’s doing, but you know, there are a lot of people who we thought were the ones, but they weren’t.”
