Peter Obi Debunks News Of His Arrest, Tags It Fake
Nigeria Presidential Candidate under Labor Party Mr. Peter Obi has debunked news making around over his arrest, 9jaglover reports.
Notably, Rumours have been going round on social media over his arrest. This is coming few days after the APC spokesman, Mr. Felix Morka claimed obi has crossed the red line.
Morka in an interview with arise tv maintained that Obi’s new year message to Nigerians was absurd and have consequences.
In reactions to Morka’s interview, obi made the following statement on his X handle.
“Have I really crossed the line?
I ask the question because my New Year message has now led to threats against my life, my family, and those around me. While I have received all sorts of messages, one Mr. Felix Morka has gone further to accuse me of “crossing the line” and has warned that I will face the consequences.
I find it necessary to share this message again and urge everyone who has not seen it to watch:

If I have truly crossed the line, I invite anyone to point it out, as I remain committed to upholding decorum. However, I will not be silenced in my resolve to speak truthfully, especially as our nation continues to drift toward undemocratic practices.
We are increasingly transforming into an authoritarian and repressive regime, where freedom of expression is being systematically suppressed.
May God help us create a better and freer society for the sake of our children. -PO”.
However,Peter Obi revealed that he is currently in his home in onitcha and urged his followers to disregard such news.
“The recurring fake News on me.
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.
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!!!
