A common thief has done the unexpected to Peter Obi, a frontline Presidential aspirant under the banner of the PDP.
The thief, reportedly, stole Obi’s phone while he was at the funeral ceremony for the father of Val Ozigbo at Amesi Community, Aguata Local Government Area. Ozigbo was the PDP candidate for the November 6, 2021, Anambra Governorship election won by Professor Charles Soludo.
It is not known how the thief got close to Obi, but Obi famous for his simplicity, is known to often shun security details. He does not like them crowding around him, but usually, there is always one who keeps an eye on him.
Obi’s phone is like his mini office. He is said to be quite disorganised, as the thief has already switched off the phone.
A call placed to his number by our correspondent came back with a response: “the number you are calling is currently switched off.”
