The spokesman of the Bola Tinubu campaign council in the southeast, Dr. Josef Onoh has repudiated the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Mr Peter Obi over the Obi-Datti’s team request for the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu to quit the presidential race over a stale allegation of the drug scandal.
The Obi-Datti media office of the LP presidential candidate had on Wednesday accused Tinubu of being indicted by the United States of America, but Onoh in his counter to the allegations told Obi that he cannot become the president of Nigeria through a back door and slander.
Onoh said that Obi is seeking undue promotion to the presidency of Nigeria through offensive means, stating that even if Tinubu quits the presidential race Obi cannot be “awarded” the presidential seat.
He recalled that he had already dispensed with the mischievous allegations on Tinubu, wherein he provided the clean bills of health that were already made on Tinubu in the frivolous allegations, stating that it was because Tinubu is already coasting to clear victory that has made his rivals such as Obi and the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to become jittery and want to take Tinubu back in time.
