2023: Peter Obi Denies Flying Private Jets Allegedly Donated For His Campaigns

Labour Party (LP) presidential flag-bearer, Peter Obi, on Sunday denied reports that some Nigerians donated their personal jets for his 2023 presidential campaign.

Naija News reports that the presidential hopeful took to his verified social media handle, Twitter, to debunk a viral claim that some eminent citizens who are backing his ambition, donated their private jets to him for use as he flies across states for campaigns.

The former governor of Anambra State said the claims, which have gone viral on social media, are untrue.

“Recently, several social media reports have alluded that some eminent Nigerians have donated their personal jets for my use during my campaign.

“In as much as I appreciate the expression of such hopes, I have never received any of such offer,” Obi said via his Twitter page on Sunday.

“I pray that those eminent Nigerians mentioned, are not unduly distracted by such social media utterances. May God Almighty bless those eminent Nigerians always,” the presidential hopeful added.
