The campaign spokesperson for the African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar, Kenneth Okonkwo, has said President Bola Tinubu’s government should be held responsible if anything happens to the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer, Peter Obi or any prominent opposition member.
Naija News reports that Okonkwo made this remark while reacting to the attack on Peter Obi’s convoy during his visit to Benue State.
In a post via his 𝕏 handle on Tuesday, Okonkwo said the obstruction of Peter Obi’s movement in Benue State is an affront to his freedom of movement and should be condemned by all Nigerians.
According to Okonkwo, there should be no place for intimidation and political violence in the country’s democracy.
He said, “The violent obstruction of the movement of @PeterObi in Benue State is an affront to his freedom of movement and should be deprecated by all Nigerians. There should be no place for intimidation and political violence in our democracy. We may disagree in our policies and programmes but we must be united that no Nigerian should be denied his fundamental human rights. The government of @officialABAT should be held responsible if anything happens to @PeterObi or any other opposition parties leaders or prominent members.”
Must you displayed insane statement anytime you talk please is Tinubu the governor or the local government chairman please stop unreasonable statement
Too many challenges from friendly enemies for P.Obi that Kenneth the boot leaker has to react. The governor of Benue state who belongs to the clergy class is the biggest hypocrite in that vocation. Shameless to demand permission for an undiluted citizen to seek his permission to greet his Benue people. Tinubu should learn political tolerance, stop wikerising opponents.
