Chizea on Peter Obi pulls Arise News far off its routine
The Anambra interview has drawn more comments than likes in its first day, which is rare for anything on the channel.
Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 103,861 views a day, 40 times a normal first day on this channel (2,567).
Anambra: Peter Obi Is A Threat To Those In Power, Anything To Discredit Him Is On The Table - Chizea
A new segment on Arise News usually opens with a few thousand views on its first day and then makes way for the next one. This one did not. "Anambra: Peter Obi Is A Threat To Those In Power, Anything To Discredit Him Is On The Table - Chizea" opened at roughly forty times the channel's usual first-day pace.
The title makes the argument plain. A guest named Chizea says the former Anambra governor worries people in power, and that no attempt to discredit him is off limits. Obi ran for president as the Labour Party candidate in 2023 and still draws strong reactions from Nigerians, and Arise, the Lagos-based broadcaster, has long given its airtime to that kind of debate.
The response to this one is loud. Viewers have left more comments than likes, so it is being argued over as much as it is being watched.
