Obi had earlier on Tuesday, July 23, 2024, threatened to sue Onanuga if he failed to apologise and retract an allegation linking him to an impending mass protest.
Obi threatened to sue Onanuga after the latter accused him of instigating ‘his mob’ to destabilise the country.
In a tweet on Monday, the president’s spokesperson said Obi’s comment about the Nigerian economy at a time when some youths are planning to stage a mass protest is an attempt to ‘work up his mob’ ahead of the protests to ‘destabilize the country.’
