Peter Obi has strongly denied accusations that Rufai Oseni supports him because he sponsored the burial of Rufai's late dad.

He said,

Ordinarily, I do not get involved in name-calling and mud-slinging. Neither do I attack people nor try to defame their personalities in the course of my political journey. I have also avoided replying to cheap, wicked or malicious blackmail publicly or privately in the same
irresponsible manner that they are thrown at me. Anyone who has followed my corporate and political life knows that I always stay on issues, with my focus on finding solutions to societal challenges and ameliorating the suffering of the people.

I do however need to clarify a few issues, especially since a third party is involved. There is a recent case where my name has been mentioned in a malicious and cheap blackmail against one of Nigeria's best Television presenters, Mr. Rufai Oseni, who has stood sternly
for what is right and has challenged me fearlessly on some occasions while speaking truth to power. I have recently been mentioned to have bribed Mr. Rufai Oseni by financially sponsoring the burial of his father.

Let me clearly state that this is a categorical lie. It is not true, cannot be true and will never be true. Everyone who understands or follows my approach to things will attest to the fact that I do not give anyone money to promote my name.
I have never and will never monetarily induce any journalist to speak or write in my favour. When I am invited to birthday celebrations or funerals, people know that I do attend. Countless journalists, media personnel, the less privileged, the wealthy etc., have all invited me to their occasions, and they will attest to the fact that I honour such invitations, especially when people are grieving. I have never been to Rufai's village. Even at the point of writing this, I do not know where he is from.

One then wonders why people could decide to tarnish other people's image for no justifiable reason. To those involved in such evil endeavours, I wish them well and pray that God will have mercy on them.

I still maintain that our focus in Nigeria should be on rescuing our dear Nation from the many challenges plaguing it. We should focus more on lifting people out of poverty. Millions of Nigerians do not know where their next meal will come from.

We have millions of unemployed youths in their productive age with very little production going on in Nigeria to create jobs. Finding solutions to these challenges should command our attention, for the progress of our dear nation Nigeria - and that is what I remain committed to. A New Inclusive and Sustainable Nigeria is POssible! -PO

Good
Now for the comments to explode like mad

LYING SOB. Lying as usual.
Pandora, pathological liar Obi, can lie for Africa. We are still waiting on the lying MOFO to sue the Gazette newspaper that posted his "YES DADDY" religious war conversation.
The IPOB cannibal monkey claimed that the tape was fake and that he would sue. We are still waiting for the IPOB terrorist sore loser to sue today.

You can never trust this man to tell the truth. He's incapable of telling the truth. He will lie even when he doesn't need to. That is a sign of a narcissistic personality disorder.

Reno Omokri is really paranoid with his attacks against Peter Obi but the good thing is that Obi has never dignified him with even a single response.

Linus can't be trusted

O pari. The poor man's funeral has been enmeshed in the same toxic politics of lies, hate and bigotry his son profited from. Smh.

The elders in his family better request that the public respect their privacy. Check my signature for free stuffs!

" I have never and will never monetarily induce any journalist to speak or write in my favour."

The one doing audio refugee in Ghana nko? Smh. Is it that Mr Obi don't read these lies before making them public ni?

N

Allow Peter Obi to breathe please

Their biz

Peter Obi and denial. But what is bad if he sponsors it? Is sponsoring a burial the same as sponsoring drug trafficking or terrorism?

Chai..


Who's after the young man?

Please, he's going thru a lot!

It's not easy to be running a presidential tribunal case.

That was how he lied that it wasn’t his voice in the phone call with Oyedepo.

Peter Obi can lie for Africa.

Haha..

Lamba Nanu don come again..

FYI.

Back to the issues and avoiding barking dogs

Yes daddy

Cool

Obi shoudnt have replied
we know Reno is craving for his attention

Nawaoo. Why would Obi sponsor Rufai's father's burial? Man is capable of doing that himself in any scale.

I no get money but I was able to Bury my own papa. This one get.
Obi shouldn't reply to these things, but I understand he's trying to protect Oseni's pride and image.

Sir you shouldn't answer the inferior beings we share country with.

Very useless set of homo sapiens... everyday they try harder to be just like us but God never allow it to work.

We are first in everything in this country for a reason...last Sunday people from dark part of Nigeria visited our Village asking us to stop taking our own God's given resource the crude from bunkering, that won't stop as long as people like us are there.

Thunder fire any hopeless Hooper from the other side trying to mention me here..may I log into your dirty mum pucci if you think of typing thrash..Amen.

They will bring alert now and he will start crying that his account was hacked.

Agulu Antichrist

Wait, was there a trending rumor like that or just another way for lamba king to be in the news this week? Considering this is a Monday Morning.

Do people not really have other things to do other than following politicians around, both online and offline?

I believe you Sir

You owe no one any explanation... unlike Tinubu who is accountable to us
