Tinubu Hails Fubara+Atiku Slams Tinubu On $460K Forfeiture+Peter Obi’s Chant At Kalu’s Rally|OjyOkpe

Governor Siminalayi Fubara promises President Bola Tinubu millions of votes in Rivers State. In Abia, Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu's appeal to support the president meets a different response: a crowd chanting Peter Obi's name over his speech.

Those contrasting scenes feature in Ojy Okpe's political round-up on Arise News, which drew about 120,000 views in its first 14 hours, far beyond the channel's usual first-day audience. The Abia APC says the disruption at Kalu's rally was planned to embarrass him and the president.

In the Port Harcourt footage, Tinubu praises Fubara for making peace following his rift with Nyesom Wike. "Fubara, you will not regret what you have done," he tells the governor. But back in the studio, Ayo Mairo-Ese questions the scale of Fubara's vote pledge, using registration figures and past results to challenge the promise.

The panel's disagreement is about more than campaign arithmetic. Mairo-Ese argues that economic hardship and policy should take precedence over personal attacks. Reuben Abati counters that Tinubu did discuss his manifesto alongside his criticism of opponents. Rufai Oseni presses for candidates to address tangible problems in government.

Obi's response to Tinubu's criticism of his record adds a specific demand: an account of what fuel-subsidy savings and borrowing have delivered in public infrastructure.

That emphasis also runs through a separate Arise upload drawing an unusually fast audience. In it, news director Sumner Sambo calls for clear poverty-reduction targets and evidence of progress, rather than more blame directed at the opposition.
