The 2023 Presidential Candidate for Labour Party, Peter Obi has debunked news of his porported arrest.
Obi who via his verified X handle on Wednesday, described the news as false said, he is currently in Anambra State.
The former Anambra State governor said “I have been made aware of a circulating fake News about my alleged arrest. Let me state unequivocally that these claims are entirely false.
“I am currently at my home in Onitsha. Anambra State. Such fake News on my person has become a pastime for some people,”.
He recalled that,”last year September, when I was in Rwanda, similar lies had gone out that DSS invaded my house; now, while I was in my home in Onitsha, Anambra State, they said I was arrested in Abuja.
“The motive of these peddlers cannot be positive but let us not allow baseless rumors to distract us from the critical challenges we face as a nation. I Thank the public for the concern, support, and dedication to the cause of a better Nigeria that is possible,” he said.
