The self-described human rights activist Omoyele Sowore has denied allegations that he is obsessed with Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the general elections of 2023, by revealing a long-kept fact about the latter.
During a Saturday discussion on the “MIC ON PODCAST” space that TRIBUNE ONLINE was watching, RevolutionNow’s convener clarified that this was not the first time he had helped the former governor of Anambra.
The host asked a question and accused Sowore of being envious of Peter Obi’s rise to fame during the election campaign.
In addition, he asserted that he was responsible for Peter Obi’s rise to prominence as the Labour Party’s presidential candidate and said that he had given the latter the document that secured him a seat in the organisation.
“Peter Obi would not have been the Labour Party candidate if it weren’t for me. The document that Femi Falana (SAN) used to secure Peter Obi’s appointment to the Labour Party was one that I supplied. Furthermore, I have already assisted Peter Obi.
“Obasanjo then intended to remove him from office while he was governor; I assisted by using Sahara Reports to uncover all of the schemes against him. How could I become fixated on a candidate when I know that’s how he will end up?
“I don’t want what the OBIdient Movement’s Peter Obi had.” I do not hope for a fictitious movement. Why, if they were real, were they unable to react in any way when they were duped? Many people were frightened by certain ingredients, particularly on social media. Despite everything they did to me, I never felt afraid of them because I spoke my mind regarding Peter Obi, unlike some others who were afraid of them,” he said.
