Presidential Candidate of Labour Party (LP) in 2023 elections, Peter Obi, has denied being arrested by security personnel over his comments on the state of the nation and his criticism of President Bola Tinubu’s istration.

He said this in series of tweets on his X handle on Wednesday, lamenting what he described as ‘The recurring fake News on me’.

On September 10, 2024, Obi’s media aide Valentine Obienyem, had denied reports that the Department of State Services (DSS) did not arrest Obi alongside Margaret, his wife.


“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.
“Recall 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,” Obi said.

He said motive of the peddlers could not be positive and the public should not allow baseless rumors to distract them from the critical challenges facing the nation.
He also commended the public for the concern, , and dedication to the cause of a better Nigeria.

Arrest obi. Inside this Nigeria. ?

Only when tinubu wants to test himself.

He should look carefully at the voting logs and see the millions of people that voted for obi.

Nigeria cannot handle 500k protesters.

More than 6 million voted obi. Despite massive rigging.

Nobody is interested in his arrest, he and his cotravellers just like attention.
APC media team has been keeping him busy after his disgraceful loss at the poll.

Nnamdi Kanu and Obi have nothing in common except coming from same zone in Nigeria. Obi is at above the level of Tinubu, Abiola and Awolowo combined together but still greater than them in of integrity and capability
