APC’s Endless Subterfuge Must Stop – Obi

“We don’t  expect those who ran election on forged credentials and even fake Bishops to stop faking.”

The Presidential Candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has decried the lies, propaganda, distortion of stories embarked upon by the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, to discredit him.

In a statement signed by Diran Onifade, Head, Obi-Datti Media, urged the APC to stop what he described as its “Endless Subterfuge.”

His reaction stemmed from a conversation he had with Bishop Oyedepo of the Winners Chapel, which was completely doctored in order to give it a sinister meaning, and now circulating on the Social Media.

The statement dismissed it as fake and asked Nigerians to focus on the task to take back “the mandate we know was freely given to Peter Obi and Datti Baba-Ahmed through legitimate means.

It reads:

“It appears the All Progressives Congress’ desperation to grab and retain power by foul means has refused to go away more than a month after they have grabbed the election as they planned.

While we are toeing the constitutional path to retrieve our mandate, those who have truncated the wishes of the majority of Nigerians have recoursed to mischief and endless subterfuge to continue to hold on to what they know does not belong to them.

From the show of shame in Portharcourt to the drama in the Ibom Air aircraft, both of which they contrived, they have now moved to the circulation of a deep fake audio file aimed at promoting religious tension in the country.

“All these are meant to serve no other purpose than egregious  mischief aimed at demarketing Peter Obi.  If the goal is to create a credibility problem, the ploy has failed woefully. Peter Obi has long been on record as the only presidential candidate who has urged the Nigerians electorate not to vote for him on the basis of religion or tribe .

“We will therefore

like to advice our beloved Nigerian people to remain focused on the task to take back  the mandate we know was freely given to Peter Obi and Datti Baba-Ahmed through legitimate means.

That is more important than to expect  those who ran election on forged credentials and even fake Bishops to stop faking. They cannot stop being fraudulent because that is who they are.”
