The former Anambra Governor and 2023 presidential candidate of Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi has debunked the claim that he has been arrested.
Obi took to his official social media handle to make this known on Wednesday.
Obi, in a statement titled “The recurring fake News on me,” said, he’s currently at home in Onitsha, Anambra State.
The statement read, “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!!!”
