Labour Party Reacts To FG Treason Allegation

Afimag.com –

The Presidential Candidate of Labour Party, Mr. Peter Gregory Obi has reacted to the federal government’s treason allegation, saying that he has never motivated anyone to undermine the Nigerian State, sponsored or preached any action against the country.

In a statement signed by the Information Director of the Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Council, Diran Onifade, the Former Anambra State Governor expressed displeasure over the recent outbursts by the Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed.

Recall that Alhaji Lai Mohammed, on April 04, 2023, alleged that Obi and his Vice-Presidential candidate, Datti Baba-Ahmed betrayed the country by instigating the citizens to revolt against the declaration of Bola Tinubu as the President-elect by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Obi who was not pleased by the minister’s position on the matter, reminded the authorities that he had taken legal route towards the recovery of his mandate, and that he remained committed to it.

Hear him: “Any person ‘seeing’ treason in a clear legal process should explain to Nigerians how opting for the tribunal by myself and my Deputy amounts to treason.

“The Minister accused Obi of stoking the fire of insurrection is totally fictitious and malicious. He has never advocated or encouraged anyone to undermine the Nigerian state, he has never sponsored or preached any action against the Nigerian state.”
