A young Nigerian girl, Covenant Onyebuchi Okereke on Tuesday gifted the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi, an undisclosed sum of money as her support for his presidential election.
Okereke said she was led by God to bless Obi with her ‘widows mite’ which she had saved over time.
Ikengaonline reports that Obi was in Enugu State for a live interview on Urban Radio, located off Presidential Road, Independence Layout, Enugu.
The Labour Party presidential candidate was besieged by some of his supporters after the radio programme during which the young girl approached him to make the presentation.
According to teenager, she has been trying to save money and had prayed God to show her a humble man whom she will bless with the money.
“God answered my prayers today. I live down the street and I heard Peter Obi is in Urban Radio and I rushed down.
“I was like thank God for answering my prayers. I am about to bless a humble man though I do not have name,” Okereke said.
