The Peter Obi Media Reach has alleged that there is a plot to frame and arrest the candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 presidential election, Peter Obi, over the nationwide planned protest by some people.The POMR spoke in a statement on Saturday following the accusation by the Presidency that Obi was behind the protest.The Presidency, in a statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, also accused the Indigenous People of Biafra in the planned protest.But reacting to the position of the Presidency, the POMR, in a statement signed by Dr. Tanko Yunusa, said: “The attention of the Peter Obi Media Reach, POMR has been drawn to the wild, wicked and baseless allegations by one of the Spokespersons in the Presidency, Bayo Onanuga accusing the Labour Party’s Presidential Candidate in the 2023 elections, Peter Obi of being the mastermind of a planned protest in the country. “The statement even said that Obi should be held responsible for any mayhem that may occur in the protest.“But POMR can report from good and reliable authority that these unsubstantiated allegations are being orchestrated to arrest Obi, limit his freedom and association and stop his propagation for good governance which they find injurious to their lavish lifestyle.“Peter Obi by his mien in and out of political office has not in any way shown or been associated with violence even in the most obvious provocations.
He has always shown even during the electioneering that he is issue-driven as he carries on without calling anybody’s name.“POMR is also aware that multiple attack dogs have been hired and strategically deployed to ensure that Obi does not enjoy the ear of the Nigerian populace who are keen on hearing his voice on issues. “These spine doctors and hirelings, to justify their pay, indulge in all kinds of falsehood ostensibly to distract Obi and confuse Nigerians who already see Obi as a soothing balm in the current turbulent political and economic environment.
