The clip, titled "Knight don talk am that year 😂Police ID na money. Peter Obi dey crowd dey with everybody—no distance," captures Obi mingling freely among supporters. The phrase "Police ID na money" seems to reference the ongoing debate about the high cost of police security details, suggesting that Obi's close engagement with the public contrasts with the expensive security arrangements often seen with other politicians.
