The report was deemed fake by the former governor of Anambra State.
I never went to see him (Tinubu),” he said. Not me. Some of the things I’ve been telling you include these. They have flipped everything on its head. As a result, they (the opposition) are currently planning how they will raise a fuss and how they will brand him (Obi) as such or such.
“If they don’t call him (Obi) a tribal bigot or a religious bigot when he is silent, they’ll find his family and see if he has any love children, among other things like a false identity.
The former governor admitted, “I didn’t visit anybody.
He insisted that he was dedicated to upholding the law and was prepared to see the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal’s case through to its logical conclusion.
The LP standard bearer also made it clear that he is not a citizen of the United Kingdom.
He claimed that despite being in the nation for a while, he gave his “unlimited residency permit” back to the authorities just before he left.
Obi claimed that he was only stopped for a normal immigration check during his most recent “arrest” in London.
“I was stopped for a standard immigration check, which took a total of little more than 20 minutes. I received the utmost respect. The former governor made it clear that he had never been detained or arrested.
“I lived in the UK in the 1990s from 1993 to 2005,” he continued. I have now had 30 years since that point, during which time I have never been interrogated, detained, or arrested anywhere in the globe.
“I have never been detained or interrogated in any way. I have never done anything wrong. The standard immigration check that took place took no less than 20 minutes, and the authorities treated me with respect.
Obi highlighted that there were no internal problems in the Labour Party and that the purported crisis was simply the “rascality” of paid agents determined to stop the party from pursuing justice. Continue Reading…
