The media team of Peter Obi, Labour Party presidential candidate in the 2023 general elections says the presidency is plotting to cage him.

A statement signed by Yunusa Tanko, the spokesman says linking Obi to the planned nationwide protest is a ploy by the presidency to arrest him over the planned nationwide protest.

The full statement reads "The attention of the Peter Obi Media Reach, POMR has been drawn to the wild, wicked and baseless allegations by one of the Spokespersons in the Presidency, Bayo Onanuga accusing the Labour Party’s Presidential Candidate in the 2023 elections, Peter Obi of being the mastermind of a planned protest in the country.

The statement even said that Obi should be held responsible for any mayhem that may occur in the protest.
But POMR can report from good and reliable authority that these unsubstantiated allegations are being orchestrated to arrest Obi, limit his freedom and association and stop his propagation for good governance which they find injurious to their lavish lifestyle.

Peter Obi by his mien in and out of political office has not in any way shown or been associated with violence even in the most obvious provocations.

He has always shown even during the electioneering that he is issue-driven as he carries on without calling anybody’s name.

POMR is also aware that multiple attack dogs have been hired and strategically deployed to ensure that Obi does not enjoy the ear of the Nigerian populace who are keen on hearing his voice on issues.

These spine doctors and hirelings, to justify their pay, indulge in all kinds of falsehood ostensibly to distract Obi and confuse Nigerians who already see Obi as suiting balm in the current turbulent political and economic environment.
All the problems real and imagined created by their insensitivity and lavish lifestyle they have curiously tried to link to Obi.
Notable challenges of the administration which are a consequence of their actions and inactions like fuel subsidy fallouts, growing poverty in the land, inflation, nepotism and unresolved historical conflicts among others they blame all on Obi.

POMR therefore wish to urge Nigerians to ignore the Presidency’s cheap blackmail as Obi and the Obidient family all over the country and in the diaspora remain resolute in their search for a new Nigeria that is POssible and would not be cowed or be made to lose focus.

FG won't try that shit because Obi ain't Buhari who battered the economy neither is obi Tinubu who has worsened it with incompetent actions. Obi is not the stomach of hungry NIGERIANS who feel Tinubu ain't doing much to improve the economy. Obi didn't need protest to gain six million votes including mine, protests will add nothing to him.

Check this one.

They already get exchange.

Bayo ononoga is just working for his pay.

They can't try any nonsense because they know they can't handle the consequences which would root them off their feet to the ground.

If he tries it
Youths will burn down Nigeria

First, this is fake or at most false alarm. Secondly, gringory is an ordinary citizen, so if he commits and it requires him to be arrested, the govt won't hesitate to do so. The worst that will happen is igwes may be beheaded, looting and more pvssy slicing will occur in 5 villages.

I think Peter obi shd be arrested cos ibo are still in pains as dey lost election

The presidency doesn't care about Obi. Winners don't usually bother about those they've defeated already.

Besides what did you guys do when Kanu was arrested? Bunch of online warriors

Poopoo plsssss arrest am B4 month end. I wan check something. aso rock go relocate to arigbiji lga poopoo village

Nawa oo hunger has no get tribe. The attempt to scapegoat a given people will only encourage those who ain't them who are planning a protest to go ahead. The South spoke out against Buhari so if the North should do same against tinubu it's democracy.

Tell that to Bayo who wants to drag the presidency into unnecessary controversy. Kanu is an anarchists. Obi is the issue here and he is a peace loving citizen

Make him dey run from his own shadow. What a coward Peter Obi is

This kind of propaganda has never helped Obidient and will never help you. Same kind of false alarm was raised after the election when Obidients were calling for a coup. Obi will only be arrested if he's suspected of treason or a criminal offense, otherwise he's inconsequential to the presidency.

-Kiss the truth!

I think the president himself needs to caution some of his people against making utterances that can be misconstrued as coming from him and capable of inciting unrest. Same goes with obi and his people.

Just so happens that some disgruntled Southerners from the East are supporting their masters in the North against their southern brothers from the West.

Another whack narrative. NIGERIANS are living in the most difficult of times which tinubu has acknowledged so I don't understand why some of you his supporters ain't on the same page with him.

I DARE THIEFNUBUUU TO ARREST OBI.


THIS ONE IS NOT NNAMDI KAU, NOBODY WIL BEG HIM TO RELEASE OBI.



HE WILL REAP THE CONSEQUENCES LIVE AND DIRECT NATIONWIDE.



THEY SAY WHO THE gods WANT TO DESTROY, THEY FIRST MAKE DEAF.

blacknp:

The southern brothers from the west that have been destroying Igbo properties in Lagos and preventing Igbos from casting their constitutionally-guaranteed votes in Lagos.

Truth

Obi dare not call for mayhem. He won't, it's not in his character. if he tries it his OBIDIENT supporters will be the first to counter him. Protest is an integral element of democracy, and in our present situation, protest won't come off well. So the President knows what to do. Appeal directly to NIGERIANS or better still guide the protest but allowing the likes of Bayo to continue to spin narratives along politics and tribe is a danger that could consume us all. Mayhem is anarchy and has no productive end but destruction and death.

yeah! good move! let him rot in jail like KANU,

Bitter wailing.

The economy is bitter and wailing too.

This is a joke right?

Peter Obi has consistently shown he lacks the political acumen needed to lead. His failed attempts at the presidency only highlight his ineffectiveness.

Where you enjoying in Nigeria before Tinubu came into power?

Keep looking for whom to blame for your misery.
