LAGOS, Nigeria -The comments of Presidential flagbearer of the All Progressive Congress(APC), Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu followers of Labour Party  will labour  till death has sparked a very healthy competition,  #labourchallenge and #dignityinlabour on the social media.

Tinubu, who was in Oshogbo,  Osun State for the reelection campaign of the flag bearer of the APC, Mr. Gboyega Oyetola  had berated the Labour Party,  as folks that will labour till death but at the same time wishing his fellow partymen  blessing, riches and the rest.

But since he made the statement, the massive followers of the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr. Peter Obi,  known as OBIdient picked up the reply of Peter Obi, (who had insisted in Osbogbo that there is dignity in labour ) and called on Nigerians to show up their hustle by snapping photographs of themselves on duty with the hashtag #labourchallenge and #dignityinlabour.
