2023: Keyamo Replies Labour Party, Says Obi Should Be Placed On Security Watchlist

Spokesperson of the Tinubu/Shettima Campaign organization, Festus Keyamo SAN has reacted to the statement by the Labour Party, in which it urged the service chiefs to place him on the security watchlist over ‘treasonable’ activities.

In his reaction on Tuesday, Keyamo accused the presidential candidate of the Labour Party and his supporters of whipping up religious and tribal sentiments through the spreading of fake news.

Mr Keyamo said, “I also call on the Security Agencies in Nigeria to place Mr. Peter Obi and some of his demented supporters on the terror watch lists for circulating an incendiary video with a fake message by one of his supporters called Powell Glad Legbe (on his Facebook page) calling on Yorubas not to vote for Peter Obi.

“Mr. Peter Obi then wrongly and wickedly attributed that quote to an amorphous ‘Tinubu group’. Up till now he has not withdrawn his accusation nor has he apologized to our candidate Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

“It is obvious Mr. Peter Obi wants to cause religious and tribal crises in the country and for this I call on the security agencies to place Mr. Peter Obi on security watch or invite him for thorough investigation. If necessary, I am prepared to be invited too as a witness to prove my case against him”, he added.
