A short video circulating online has put former Anambra State governor and 2023 presidential candidate Peter Obi at the centre of unexpected social media attention, after a clip appeared to show him dismissing one of his most devoted supporters.

The supporter in question is Peter Akah, widely recognised online as Randy Peter or Peter for Nigeria, a figure who built considerable visibility through his vocal and high-energy campaigns backing Obi across digital platforms.

The exchange lasted only moments, but it was enough to capture widespread attention.

The footage does not show what preceded the incident, leaving room for speculation. Some viewers joked that Akah's famously enthusiastic approach to supporting the politician may have finally worn thin.

Others offered a more charitable reading, suggesting Obi may simply have needed a break from the constant presence of cameras and attention that often accompanies public figures on the campaign trail.

The X post below has a video of Peter Obi supposedly chasing away his die-hard supporter, Randy-Peter Akah.
