OBI’S CLAIM ON THREAT TO LIFE SHEER FALSEHOOD– GANDUJE                                                                                                           09-01-25

By Sadiq Aminu                                                                The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Abdullahi Umar-Ganduje, has described as unfortunate and misleading claims attributed to Mr. Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 general elections, alleging threats to his life.

In a statement, Dr. Ganduje, described the claims as sheer mischief and outright falsehood, which would have been ignored if not for the need to refute such a baseless narrative.

The APC National Chairman expressed displeasure over the claim shared on Mr. Obi’s verified official X (formerly Twitter) account, labeling it as a malicious lie aimed at seeking attention and playing the victim for emotional blackmail.

He stated unequivocally that at no point did Morka threaten Mr. Obi or his family.

“By falsely claiming that Morka threatened his life, Mr. Obi has libeled Morka in the extreme and incited his online supporters to issue death threats against Morka and his family.

He emphasized that as a public figure, Mr. Obi has a responsibility to provide accurate and truthful information, adding that spreading falsehood undermines public trust.

GANDUJE observed that Morka was simply discharging his duties as the National Publicity Secretary of the APC, holding opposition actors accountable for their statements, as is expected in a democratic setting.

The APC Chairman further underscored the importance of free speech, a right protected by Nigeria’s Constitution, which applies equally to all Nigerians, including members of the ruling party and therefore called on Mr. Obi to refrain from misinformation and to accept criticism as part of the democratic process.

Ganduje stated that the party stands by the position of the National Publicity Secretary Mr Morka in his effort to defend the federal government and set the records straight against disinformation by desperate politicians.
